Management of root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita on tomato by using indigenous isolates of am fungus, Glomus fasciculatum

Abstract

Studies conducted on management of virulent isolates of Meloidogyne incognita on tomato by using indigenous isolates of Glomus fasciculatum showed that Shimoga Banana Isolate of G. fasciculatum (SBI-G.f.) was found to be effective in increasing plant growth development and yield of tomato cv. Pusa Ruby besides reducing the root-knot nematode population and root-knot index.
