Phytonematodes Management in Okra Using Carbofuran and Neem

Phytonematodes Management

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Field experiments were carried out during the 2013 cropping season to investigate the use of neem leaf powder (NLP) and carbofuran in combination in comparison with sole application of either carbofuran or NLP as amendment in managing plant parasitic nematodes infecting four varieties of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench). The experiment was conducted at two locations, at Teaching and Research Farm University of Maiduguri and at Lassa, Askira Uba local government area, Borno State. The results indicated that NLP and carbofuran in combination was more effective in nematode suppression. In Lassa and Maiduguri, Alau and Eklenson variety of okra respectively treated with the combination of NLP + carbofuran recorded the highest shoot height, root length, shoot weight and lowest number of galls in both locations. It was concluded that appropriate management of plant-parasitic nematodes will promote higher fruit yields in okra.
