Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Two tomato varieties were resistant to root-knot nematode, with the least gall number (4-6 galls/plant).
- Observation One tomato variety was moderately resistant to root-knot nematode, with 25 galls/plant.
- Observation Nine tomato varieties were susceptible to root-knot nematode, with 32-66 galls/plant.
- Observation Eleven tomato varieties were highly susceptible to root-knot nematode, with 105-132 galls/plant.
- Observation The maximum average shoot length of tomato under nematode infection was 60.43 cm, in the variety Banki local.
- Observation In Utkala kumari, the decrease in shoot length under nematode infection was 23.43 cm, significantly different from other varieties.
- Observation The decrease in shoot weight in Utkala kumari and Utkala dipti (8.53 g) was significantly different from the rest of the varieties.
- Mechanism The decrease in tomato plants under nematode infection may be due to improper uptake and transport of elements, nutrients and water.
- Mechanism Reduced shoot and root weight in infected tomato may be due to improper nutrient supply from nematode infection.
- Association The reduction in nutrient supply is compensated to some extent in resistant tomato varieties.
