Abstract

Efficacy of different plant extracts were evaluated against root-knot wilt disease complex of tomato caused by Meloidogyne incognita and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. Plant extracts were used both as seed treatment and seedling treatment with 2% concentration. Among tested plant extracts, NSKE was found most effective that reduces nematode population (No of Galls/ plant 20.68 & No of Egg masses/ plant 15.67) and wilt disease incidence 21.64 followed by garlic clove, it also significantly increase plant growth parameters (shoot length 53.07cm, root length 19.37cm, shoot weight 29.63g fresh & 7.30g dry and root weight 7.61g fresh & 2.25g dry).
