Use of Bio-Control Agents and Organic Amendments Singly and in Combination on Root-Galls in Tomato Caused by Meloidogyne Incognita

Abstract

Two bio-control agents like Trichoderma viride and Beauveria bassiana and five organic matters viz, saw dust, neem cake, mustard cake, linseed cake and spent compost of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus sajor caju) were taken singly and in combination for experimental purpose. The result revealed that higher growth parameters and minimum number of ischolar_main-galls were recorded in combination of T. viride and neem cake followed by T. viride, neem cake, mustard cake, linseed cake, spent compost of oyster mushroom, B. bassiana and saw dust respectively.
