Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Pochonia chlamydosporia had a variable establishment in the soil.
- Intervention effect Pochonia chlamydosporia did not control the root-knot nematode.
- Observation The pathogenicity of Pochonia chlamydosporia on nematode eggs was not demonstrated, as galls were big with all egg masses inside and protected from infection.
- Intervention effect Methyl bromide significantly reduced root galling and egg production compared to the other treatments in all crop cycles.
- Intervention effect Nematicides reduced nematode densities compared with untreated controls and the fungus treatment.
- Intervention effect Nematicides were less effective than methyl bromide.
- Intervention effect Nematicides resulted in increased tomato yield in one site only.
