Controle alternativo sobre Meloidogyne incognita em soja

Abstract

The alternative control is an environmentally safe and ecologically viable option for controlling plant pathogens. Considering the great importance of nematodes in soybean, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of nematophagous fungi against the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita in soybean. The experimental design was in randomized blocks, with five treatments and four replicates. The treatments were Pochonia chlamydosporia , Paecilomyces lilacinus , Coprinus comatus , a mixture of P. chlamydosporia and P. lilacinus , and control plants inoculated with M. incognita and without treatment. We evaluated number of eggs and second stage juveniles (J2) in soil and roots, number of galls and reproduction factor (RF). There were no differences among the treatments and the control plants for number of eggs and J2 in soil and roots, number of galls and RF. The P. chlamydosporia treatments caused the reduction of the number of J2 in roots. Thus, was possible to conclude that P. chlamydosporia has potential to control M. incognita in soybean plants.
