Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation The fungus developed adhesive hyphal-loop traps.
- Intervention effect Fungal culture filtrate was highly toxic to the nematode in vitro.
- Intervention effect The fungus significantly suppressed tomato root knot in pot experiments.
- Intervention effect Fungal treatment significantly reduced nematode females, galls and developing-stage counts.
- Observation The fungus secreted metabolites toxic to the nematode.
- Recommendation The authors identify the isolate as a potential biological control agent for root-knot disease.
