STUDIES ON THE USE OF SOIL AMENDMENTS TO CONTROL ROOT KNOT NEMATODES ON PEPPER

Neveen Magdy Galal;

Abstract


Pepper (Capsicum annuum) is one of the most important and widely distributed vegetable crops in the world. It is consumed either fresh or as a constituent of most Egyptian dishes.

Pepper is subjected to be attacked by several fungal, bacterial, viral and nematode diseases that cause great losses in yield. Root knot nematode is one of the major problems facing pepper production.

Biological activity of the soil is changed by adding the organic amendments to the soil.


In this way the present investigation was conducted to study:


• The effect of these amendments on controlling Root knot nematodes.

• Varietal resistance of some pepper cvs. toM. incognita.


• Isolation of the macro and micro-organisms associated with organic matter.

• Antagonistic effect of some biocontrol agents on M. incognita

under laboratory and greenhouse conditions.


The results of this present investigation can be summarized as follows:

l. Sweet Mixed cv ., Paradicsom Zold and Sao Carlos cultivars gained the lowest values of total population of M incognita, while, 3G-37 cv., California Wonder and Brvinsma Wonder
