Abstract

Effects of three antagonistic fungi ( Paecilomyces lilacinus, Pochonia chlamydosporia , and Trichoderma harzianum ) alone and together with wastes materials (saw dust and neem leaf litter) and urea were studied on the growth of tomato and on the reproduction of Meloidogyne incognita in glass house experiments. Individually neem leaf litter was better in improving growth of plants without nematodes compared with any other single treatment. However, use of P. lilacinus against plants with M. incognita caused higher increase in plant growth than caused by P. chlamydosporia / T. harzianum or urea but similar to that caused by neem leaf litter or saw dust. Maximum increase in the growth of nematode inoculated plants was observed when P. lilacinus was used with neem leaf litter. P. lilacinus caused higher reduction in galling and nematode multiplication followed by P. chlamydosporia , neem leaf litter, urea, T. harzianum and saw dust. Maximum reduction in galling and nematode multiplication was observed when P. lilacinus was used with neem leaf litter.
