Fourteen cultivars of cucumber were screened for their resistance to the Southern root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid and White) Chitwood in an in planta experiment. The pots were maintained in greenhouse with CRD for 50 days after inoculation. The cultivar DS92-05 induced significant mortality and was rated “moderately resistant (MR)”. This cultivar showed increase in plant growth parameters including vine length. The cultivars DS92-06, Laghman, Sultan and Desitype were moderately susceptible (MS). The cultivar Rehan and DS96-299 were rated susceptible (S) whereas DS97-299, Chaiya, Beitalpha, Alto, DS92-04 and Local were rated as highly susceptible (HS). DS92-05 is thus promising for sustainable agriculture, specially in those areas with high population density of Southern Root knot nematode.

Cucumber is an economically important vegetable crop in China. Southern root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) is a significant obstacle in cucumber production, causing severe root damage and yield losses. Moreover, resistance development to fosthiazate, and poor mobility of abamectin have led to failure to control this nematode. It is of great interest to growers and the vegetable industry to explore novel nonfumigant nematicides that can provide adequate control in an environmentally friendly manner. Fluopimomide, a new chemical having a similar structure to fluopyram, was shown to exhibit toxic effects on fungi and nematodes. The efficacy of fluopimomide to reduce infection of M. incognita in cucumber was evaluated under greenhouse and field conditions. In the greenhouse, fluopimomide at all test rates resulted in a 22.5-39.6% and 31.3%-55.0% reduction in the population density of M. incognita in the soil at 30 and 60 days after treatment (DAT), respectively, compared with the non-treated control. Fluopimomide at 500 and 750 g ha-1 reduced (p < 0.05) root galling, meanwhile increasing plant height compared to the non-treated control at 30 and 60 DAT. In the field trials, fluopimomide at 500 and 750 g ha-1 decreased the population density of M. incognita and root galling 57.2-69.9% compared to the untreated control, while enhancing cucumber yield in two consecutive years. Furthermore, fluopimomide at 500 g ha-1 combined with fosthiazate was the most effective treatment showing a synergistic effect on reducing population densities of M. incognita, which was significantly greater than either fluopimomide or fosthiazate by themselves. In summary, fluopimomide has considerable potential for managing M. incognita on cucumber.

SummaryThe root-knot nematodeMeloidogyne incognitais a major soil parasite of lentil crops. Increasing restrictions of chemical nematicides have triggered a growing attention and interest in alternate root-knot nematode management. The present study was conducted to examine the level of resistance and/or susceptibility of five lentil cultivars (PL-456, KLS-218, Desi, DPL-62, Malika), grown in pots, against the root-knot nematodeM. incognita. Root-knot nematode reproduction and host damage were assessed by recording the nematode infestation levels and reduction percentage of plant growth parameters. Nematode response and plant growth differentiated amongst the lentil cultivars. None of the cultivars was found immune or highly resistant. The cultivar Malika was found moderately resistant as it showed the lowest number of galls and egg masses/root as well as the lowest reduction of plant fresh weight (10.4%) and dry weight (6.9%). On the other hand, the cultivar Desi manifested the highest susceptibility exhibiting the highest number of galls and egg masses. There was a significantly negative correlation between the number of galls and plant growth parameters (plant fresh and dry weight and plant height).

Okra is a valuable vegetable crop of Pakistan. It is predominantly hosted by pathogens that reduce its yield and quality. Among these yield reducing agents, root knot nematodes are very important due to their host rang. Chemical control for this important pathogen is expensive and causes pollution problems so the present study was planned to evaluate the level of resistance among different available varieties of okra against Meloidogyne incognita under field conditions. The selected field was already infested with M. incognita. Data were recorded on various plant growth parameters and nematode development parameters after sixty days. Results indicated that for various nematode populations and plant growth attributes all the cultivars significantly differed with the Sabzpari 2001 and Sabzpari X Ramakrishna having best performance on over all yield by showing moderately resistant response but no variety was resistant against M. incognita. On over all basis and yield attributes, it is recommended that Sabzpari 2001 and Sabzpari X Ramakrishna are moderately resistant to nematode infestation and should be recommended to farmers in root knot nematode infested soils of Pakistan

Newly bred resistant bell pepper varieties and those grafted onto resistant rootstock s were tested in soil severely infested with southern root-knot nematode [Meloidogy11e incognita (Kofoid and White) Chitwood] in unheated plastic house and compared to varieties on their own roots, in order to evaluate the efficiency of this environmentally friendly control method. 'Cinema F I ' carrying the N gene yielded significantly more than the two susceptible varieties. Varieties grafted onto resistant rootstocks outyielded those on their own roots although to different extent, which was not always significant. At the end of the vegetat ion period the roots of the rootstocks were undamaged and the roots of some resistant varieties were slightly infected. whereas the roots of susceptible varieties were severely damaged. According to our result  . both the use of resistant varieties and grafted plants offer an effective and environmentally safe way of controlling M. incognita.

Effect of Glomus Mosseae (Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus) On Host - Parasite Relationship of Meloidogyne Incognita (Southern Root-Knot Nematode) on Four Improved Cowpea VarietiesTwo pot experiments and a field study were conducted in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). The experiments were conducted to determine the effect ofGlomus mosseae, a mycorrhiza fungus, on the reaction of four improved cowpea varieties toMeloidogyne incognita.Cowpea plants were inoculated with a single or a combination of 5 000 eggs ofM. incognitaand 50 g ofG. mosseaeinoculum containing 5 spores/g of soil. The standardized method of screening and reporting resistance of crop germplasm to root-knot nematodes at 60 days after planting, and the modified version of including yield for resistance rating at harvest were used for this study. Root galling due toM. incognitainfection was significantly lower on all the cowpea varieties treated withG. mosseaeand more significantly on IT90K-277-2 and IT89KD-288 in the screenhouse.G. mosseae, suppressed root-knot nematode reproduction on all the varieties compared to cowpea plants infected only byM. incognitaboth in the screenhouse and field experiments. Also,G. mosseaemitigated the damage attributable to the root-knot nematode on all these varieties. Using Gall Index (GI), reproduction factor and yield,G. mosseaewas effective in improving the resistance of the cowpea varieties toM. incognita.IT90K-76 cowpea variety was consistently resistant to the root-knot nematode, while IT90K-277-2 was tolerant withM. incognitainfection but resistant withG. mosseaetreatment. IT90K-941-1 variety was resistant in the screenhouse. The results of this study also confirmedG. mosseaeas a potential bio-control agent forM. incognitaon these cowpea varieties.

Root knot nematodes (<italic>Meloidogyne</italic> spp.) cause immense yield losses in crops throughout the world. Use of resistant germplasms of plants limits the root knot nematode damages. In this study, 87 common bean (<italic>Phaseoulus vulgaris</italic> L.) genotypes were screened against the root knot nematode, <italic>Meloidogyne incognita</italic> to determine the resistance response under growth chamber conditions in Turkey. <italic>P. vulgaris</italic> genotypes were evaluated based on resistance index (RI); root galling severity and nematode egg mass production on a 1-9 scale. The nematode negatively influenced the growth (fresh weight) of bean genotypes. At the completion of the study, 13 bean genotypes were found as immune (Sehirali), highly resistant (TR42164, Seleksiyon 5, Seker Fasulye, Fas-Agadir-Suk-1) and moderately resistant (Acik Badem, TR68587, TR43477, TR53827, TR28018, Gülnar-3, Siyah Fasulye, Kibris Amerikan) against <italic>M. incognita</italic> thus suggesting the use of such genotypes in breeding studies as a parental material to develop the root knot nematode resistant cultivars.
