Abstract
Control ofMeloidogyne incognita on banana cv. Williams was first
practiced in a greenhouse experiment, and then in a field trial. Two nematicides
(VaydateÒ L 24% and RugbyÒ E.C 20%) and a biotic agent (Nemaless) were applied
alone or in combination with some organic amendments (poultry droppings + dry
ground eucalyptus leaves + fresh minced garlic cloves) and used in both
experiments. RugbyÒ or VydateÒ were the most effective products in reducing the
nematode population, whereas "Nemaless" or the organic amendments were
comparatively less effective in both experiments. In the combined treatments,
antagonistic or synergsetic effect reflected on the materials efficacy. RugbyÒ
plus organic amendments was highly effective against the nematode, whereas the
efficacy of VydateÒ or (Nemaless), was reduced when added to the organic
amendments. Improvement in banana growth parameters due to the nematode
management by means of the above-mentioned additives has been assessed in the
greenhouse. The chemical nematicides surpassed all other materials in improving
growth. However, the organic amendments hindered the prositive effect of the
other materials on growth parameters.
