Effect of Interaction of Glomus fasciculatum and Meloidogyne incognita on Growth of Brinjal

摘要

The interaction between Glomus fasciculatum with Meloidogyne incognita on brinjal indicated that mycorrhizal plants had higher plant growth parameters than non - mycorrihizal and nematode inoculated plants. Plants with VAM at higher dose (600 spores/plant) 10 days prior to nematode had significantly increased plant growth parameters of brinjal. This also resulted in reduced nematode population in soil. The treatment with VAM @ 600 spores + nematode after 10 days, was found to be the best in reducinggalls, egg masses and nematode population in soil.
