Abstract
Under protected cultivation, plant parasitic nematodes in general and root knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) in particular have become a serious threat for crop production. Soil fumigation with metham sodium alone and in combination with neem cake enriched with bioagents such as Paecilomyces lilacinus or Pseudomonas fluorescence has been found effective against root knot nematode infecting tomato, capsicum and carnation under AICRP (Nematodes).

8 of 11 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.
Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
