Abstract
Studies pertaining to the effect of root-knot nematodes on bitter gourd with
respect to i. pathogenicity of M. incognita and M. javanica pathotypes 1 & 2 (pts.1
& 2) to determine threshold level, ii. screening of bitter gourd varieties/lines to
locate the source(s) of resistance to M. incognita and M. javanica pts.
1 & 2, iii. histopathological and cytological changes due to infection of
Meloidogyne spp. to study host-parasite relationship, iv. management of rootknot
nematode, M. incognita using different botanicals in pots and v. management
of root-knot nematodes using different organic amendments, nematicides and
bioagents under field conditions were carried out at Department of Nematology, B.
A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand. The salient
findings are:
i. In a study on pathogenicity of
