Abstract
ABSTRACT The influence of different initial inoculum densities of Meloidogyne incognita on growth of henbane (Hyoscyamus muticus), total alkaloid concentration, physiological and biochemical changes, root-knot development, and nematode multiplication was investigated 60 days after inoculation in a glasshouse. A negative correlation was noted between initial inoculum densities and various growth variables. The greatest reduction in growth occurred in plants inoculated with the highest density of nematodes (15,000 juvenile/stage 2 organisms/5 kg soil). The highest reproduction factor was observed in plants inoculated with the lowest level of nematode population tested (50 juvenile/stage 2 organisms/5 kg soil).
