Abstract
Effects of inducers of systemic acquired resistance on reproduction of root knot nematodes in tomato
Highlights
Introduction dietary intake of vitaminsA, C, crucialTomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is mineral and nutrients as well as lycopene, a an important vegetable crop that is cultivated chief component of red tomatoes with an in the world as well as in Pakistan
Pot experiment showed that application of inducers at concentrations of 5.0, 7.0 and 10.0 mg/mL–1 respectively by adding Salicylic acid (SA), Jasmonic acid (JA) and Benzoic acid (BA) and significantly (p≤0.05) reduced nematode reproductive parameters like number of females, egg-masses, galls and juveniles /pot, respectively compared to whole plants inoculated by root knot nematodes only
All inducers showed the reasonable reduction of nematode reproduction but Jasmonic acid showed best results as compared to Salicylic acid and Benzoic acid at 10.0 mg/mL-1
Summary
Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is mineral and nutrients as well as lycopene, a an important vegetable crop that is cultivated chief component of red tomatoes with an in the world as well as in Pakistan. Due to antioxidant property which diminishes high nutritional value and medicinal cancers. It is approximately grown in every importance; it plays a pivotal role to the corner of the planet. Data was recorded after 7, 14, 21, 28 an d 35 days after maturity and nematodes development parameters like number of females, number of galls per gram, number of nematodes/100 ml of soil and egg masses were recorded on harvest
