Abstract
AbstractNew non‐fumigant nematicides (fluensulfone, fluopyram and fluazaindolizine) were tested in greenhouse tomato trials aiming to evaluate its efficacy on the control of Meloidogyne incognita soil and root populations and plant produtivity. Plants of the cultivar Red Gnome were transplanted into 2,500 cm3 fibre pots inoculated with 200 eggs of M. incognita/100 cm3 of soil and treated with fluensulfone, fluopyram and fluazaindolizine, in two rates each. After eight weeks of incubation the plants were evaluated for fresh root and shoot weight, weight and number of fruits, egg mass number, population density and nematode reproduction factor. All nematicide treatments reduced the root gall index, the number of M. incognita egg masses, eggs/g root and the nematode reproduction factor when compared to the non‐treated control.
