A trial experiment was conducted in order to study the effectiveness of three concentrations (ml/ml: in ratio 25%, 50% and 75%) of water leave extracts of Punica granatum, Conocarpus lancifolius and Citrullus colocynthis singly or integrated in comparison with oxamyl on reproduction of M. incognita at the level of 1000 juveniles infecting eggplant under greenhouse conditions. All treatments showed remarkable increase in plant growth parameters as well as reduce nematode criteria. There was a positive correlation between the concentration level and second stage juvenile mortality. The highest water extract concentration of 75% recorded the highest rate of nematodes paralysis for the three extracts used i.e. Conocarpus water dried-leaf extract at the highest conc. 75% ranked first in increase percentage of nematode paralysis. On the other hand, the application of Conocarpus water extrac.. View More»
