EFFECT OF BAU-BIOFUNGICIDE AND SOME PLANT EXTRACTS AGAINST ROOT-KNOT (Meloidogyne javanica) OF PAPAYA (Pages : 1 - 5)

A lab experiment was conducted at the Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University during December 2009 to May 2010 to test the efficacy of Biofungicide and some plant extracts. The efficacy of BAU- Biofungicide, Bashak leaf extract, Pineapple and Mustard oil-cake extracts against root-knot of papaya was evaluated in individual set of pot experiment in the roof. Among the treatments, BAU-Biofungicide and Bashak leaf extract gave better results as it increased shoot and root length as well as fresh weight of shoot and root correspondingly with the lowest galling incidence. Better effect on plant growth characters with lower galling incidence and development of the nematode was observed with Pineapple extract and Mustard oil cake extract as compared to control. Download
