e0“The infection rate of Meloidogyne incognita juveniles was reduced by more than 90 O/o following migration through soil infested with the nematode-trapping fungus, Monacrosporium ellipsosporum to tomato roots”
e1“M. ellipsosporum reduced the number of juveniles penetrating tomato roots and the number of juveniles remaining in the soil twelve days post-treatment”

- Intervention effect Monacrosporium ellipsosporum in soil reduced the infection rate of Meloidogyne incognita juveniles on tomato roots by more than 90%.
- Intervention effect M. ellipsosporum reduced the number of Meloidogyne incognita juveniles remaining in the soil twelve days after treatment.
- Association The number of M. incognita juveniles entering tomato roots decreased as M. ellipsosporum inoculum density increased.
- Observation Meloidogyne incognita adhered to the sticky knobs of M. ellipsosporum traps, among other nematode species.
- Observation Longidorus aji-icanus, Mesodo ylaimus sp., Paratrichodorus minor, Xiphinema anzericanunz and Diplenteron sp. adults did not adhere to the sticky knobs.
- Observation Zotonchus brachyzaimus rarely adhered to the sticky knobs.
- Intervention effect Fucose, D-fructose and lactose at 20 mM suppressed adhesion of P. redivivus to the sticky knobs.
- Intervention effect Alpha-methyl-D-mannoside, L-sorbose and D-arabinose at 200 mM suppressed adhesion of P. redivivus, but not at 20 mM.
- Intervention effect Alpha-D-mellibiose, D-trehalose and sucrose at 200 mM suppressed adhesion of P. redivivus, but not at 20 mM.
- Intervention effect N-acetyl-galactosamine and L-xylose did not suppress nematode adhesion at 20 mM or 200 mM.
