Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Total soil mixing of Monacrosporium ellipsosporum gave lower root-knot indices on tomato than planting hole treatment.
- Intervention effect Root-knot index with M. ellipsosporum plus half-dose fosthiazate was as low as with twice the dose of nematicide alone.
- Observation M. ellipsosporum was detected at 100% in tomato treatments with only the fungus culture mixture applied.
- Intervention effect The detection rate of M. ellipsosporum was lower in combined application experiments than with the fungus culture mixture alone.
