Biological control of Meloidogyne javanica on tomato with Dazitol® and soil solarization

Pot and greenhouse trials were conducted for the management of root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne javanica , infestation in tomato. Growth parameters, gall index, soil, and root nematode populations were measured to assess the effect of a novel bio-pesticide (Dazitol®), made from mustard oil and oleore...

Description
Summary:Pot and greenhouse trials were conducted for the management of root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne javanica , infestation in tomato. Growth parameters, gall index, soil, and root nematode populations were measured to assess the effect of a novel bio-pesticide (Dazitol®), made from mustard oil and oleoresin of Capsicum , on plant growth and nematode reproduction. Data generated within the pot experiment showed that the tested bio-pesticide did not improve plant growth, but it reduced significantly root-knot nematode damage resulting in a decrease in gall index and root (91%) and soil (62%) population of M . javanica compared with untreated plants. The greenhouse experiment showed that Mocap® and Dazitol® decreased nematode incidence significantly ( P
