In vivo Evaluation of Silver Nanoparticles on the Management of Meloidogyne incognita in Green Gram

In the investigations, on the effect of Ag NPs on the management of M. incognita in green gram, the results showed that all the treatments were found to be effective in increasing all growth parameters. Maximum growth parameter viz., plant height, fresh and dry weight of shoot and root were recorded in the treatment with 0.15 ppm Ag NPs + M. incognita. Maximum reduction in galls, egg masses and final nematode population in soil were recorded in the treatment with 0.15 ppm Ag NPs. All the treatments significantly differed from control except the treatment with 0.0015 ppm Ag NPs + M. incognita.
