dc.description | Tomato (Lycopersicon lycopersicum L.) is one of the most important and
popular vegetables in Bangladesh. It ranks the second in importance to potato in
the tropics on the basis of production and economic importance. In Bangladesh
18.5 thousand hectare land is under its cultivation and the total production is 122
thousand metric tons per annum approximately (BBS, 2006). Tomato is favored
by its diversified use like salad, juice, pickle and other preserved items. It contains
high nutritional values with 1.98 g protein, 320 IU vitamin-A, 1.8 mg iron and
31mg vitamin-C in 100g edible tomato (Bose, 1986). It is equally preferred from
the richest to the poorest people of our country due to its good taste and easy
availability. But its total production in Bangladesh is low as compared to other
tropical country (FAO, 1988). | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | Plant extracts like Bashak (Adhatoda vasica), Pineapple (Ananas sp.),
Mustard oil cake (Brassica campestris), Neem (Azadirachta indica), Marigold
(Tagetes patula), Dholkalmi ([pomoea fistulosa) and rhizome extract of Ginger
(Zingiber officinale) were used against root-knot of tomato caused by
Meloidogyne javanica followed by seed treatment and root dipping method.
Among the plant extracts, Bashak leaf extract gave the highest response
followed by Pineapple extract in plant growth characters like length of shoot
and root, fresh weight of shoot and root with corresponding lower galling
incidence with the population of L2, L3, L4 and adult female of M. javanica in
tomato. Mustard oil cake extract gave higher response followed by Neem leaf
extract in plant growth and the lower galling as well as suppressed population
of M. javanica. Marigold leaf extract showed lower response followed by
Dholkalmi leaf extract to enhance plant growth and suppressing nematode
activities within the treated plant. Rhizome of Ginger extract gave the lowest
response in plant growth characters of tomato consequently with higher number
of galls and nemic populations compared to control. All extracts performed
better in root dipping method than any other extracts used in seed treated
method. Negative correlations between galling incidence with shoot and root
length, shoot and root weight as well as positive correlations between gall
number with eggmass and adult female of tomato indicated the better action of
plant extracts suppressing the nematode activity | en_US |
