EFFICACY OF SEED TREATMENT AGAINST Meloidogyne Incognita AND ON PLANT GROWTH OF CHICKPEA

Abstract

Seed treatment with aldicarb-sulfone, carbofuran and oftanol resulted in signific- antly less larval penetration and better plant growth in comparison to untreated. However. oftanol at 2 percent a.i. concentration was phytotoxic. Amongst the tested chemicals, carbofuran was superior in preventing larval penertation, host infestation, nematode multi- plication and increasing plant growth than oftanol and aldicarbsulfone.
