| Abstract | ||
| The best level of foam sulfur as well as chicken faeces, antagonistic plant(Tagetes Patula, long variety)and namacur nematicide was selected according to their effect on M. javanica and improving the growth of tomato plants in other to use their interactions as integrated control of root-knot nematode M. javanica on tomato plant under field conditions, The resulte of integrated control indicated that all interactions between these factors proved their highest efficacy in improving the growth of infected tomato "plants and increasing their yield", in addition to their highest effect in reducing nematode stages population in soil and tomato root, rate of nematode reproduction and severity. The efficacy of integrated control treatments increased with increasing the number of the interacting factors, so that the four-fold treatment (fourfold interaction) was the best in sterilized and non-sterilized soil, however, the bitretments (foam sulfur +chicken faeces) and (chicken faeces +nemacur) were the least effective treatment in sterilized and non-sterilized soil respectively. | ||
