Abstract

There are many pests and diseases damaging both the quality and quantity of tomato production. Plant parasitic nematodes are one of them. They represent an important constraint on the delivery of global food security. Damage caused by plant-parasitic nematodes has been estimated at US$ 80 billion per year. Effects of three concentrations of mycorrhizal fungi were studied for control of Root Knot Nematode. Different tomato accessions were screened for Root-Knot Nematode susceptibility. All the tested concentrations of mycorrhizal fungi on nematode infected plants were produce positive effects i.e. nematode numbers were highly decreased compare to control which also appear as improvement of the growth of infected plants at various degrees. Among three tested concentrations, generally, middle concentration 5 ml of mycorrhiza is most effective followed by high one 6 ml of mycorrhizea and the lowest effect produced by lower concentration 4 ml of mycorrhizea. Mycorrhizea fungi appear as most effective control measures of root-knot nematode in tomato.
