Abstract
SUMMARY Soi1 solarization of nursery-beds by mulching with clear thin polythene sheet for 6 weeks in summer reduced the population densities of Meloidogyne incognita and Rotylenchulus renifonnis significantly more than non-mulched fallow. The decline in population was greatest in the 0-10 cm deep soil layer where the temperature frequently exceeded 40 OC. The eggplant (Solanum melongena) seedlings grown on the solarized beds had very few galls confined to the distal root ends. The polythene mulching also reduced upward ionic movement to the top soil layer by preventing water loss. Amendment of soil with farm-yard manure or mahua fMadhuca indica) cake prior to polythene mulching did not increase the effect of solarization. Control of weeds and other soil borne pathogens was an additional advantage of solarization.
