“…The results of this experiment corroborate with those of Yakubu and Izuogu, (2013) on the evaluation of botanicals on root-knot nematodes where such active ingredients were found to suppress nematode populations in the field. Olabiyi et al, (2013) also reported similar findings of the efficacy of neem compost on nematodes in spinach. Several other plants and organic materials have also been reported to contain different metabolites necessary for plant growth, better yield and at same time toxic to pathogenic microorganisms in the soil.…”

“…There is increasing need to find more acceptable alternatives. The potential for nematicidal activity of indigenous plants and their products has been reported by earlier workers (Adekunle and Fawole, 2003;., 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012Yakubu and 2013;Olabiyi et al, 2013). The nematicidal principles of plant origin in the form of isothiocyanates, thiophenics, glucosides, alkaloids, phenolics, thianins and fatty acids have been identified (Fatoki and Fawole, 2000).…”

A two-year rain-fed field trials to evaluate the efficacy occidentalis and Cymbopogon citratus at different levels in the management of nematode pests of okra was conducted. The levels of trea where 0% served as control. The experimental des design (RCBD). Effects of treatments on growth, yield, soil nematode population, root weight and root gall indices were determined. Phytochemical screening and infra spectrum to determine the secondary metabolites in It was observed that the treated plants especially those that received 50% level and above performed significantly better (p=0.05) than the control with respect to the measured parameters. The phytochemical result revealed the presence of tannin (7.4%), crude alkaloids (2.5%), saponin (0%) and crude oxalates (42.28 contained tannin (4.5%), crude alkaloids (0.52%,), saponin (1.76%) and oxalates (0%). The infra-red spectrum revealed that the two plant extracts contained very strong and broad absorption bands ~3400-1 cm region, assignable to family. The medium absorption bands were due to products. The medium absorption bands are also strong indicators of other compounds in the leaf extracts. The use of botanically derived crude leaf extracts of cassia at 50% and lemon grass at 75% in the management of nematode pests of okra will therefore be of economic benefit, ensuring food security.

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is an important and widely grown vegetable crop all over the world. Although tomato is nutritionally and economically important, its production is constrained by biotic and abiotic constraints leading to poor marketable quantity and quality worldwide. Root-knot nematodes are one of the major pests affecting tomato production worldwide, especially, in the tropical and sub-tropical regions. Green house experiments were laid out in Complete Block Design (CBD) with a 3x7 factorial arrangement replicated three times carried out at the Department of Crop and Environmental Protection, University of Agriculture. The soil was sterilized before the experiment. Fresh leaves and seeds of Moringa oleifera, Ricinus communis and Jatropha curcas were washed with tap water, 15 g from each of leaves and seeds of the different botanicals was macerated separately in an electric blender at high speed for 4 minutes in 100 ml distilled water. The mixtures were passed through a Whatman filter paper number 1; the filtrates of the leaves/seeds were then collected. Three tomato varieties viz: Roma Vf, Rio Grande and UC82B were inoculated with approximately 5,000 freshly hatched second stage juvenile of Meloidogyne incognita, two weeks after transplanting. Thirty percent aqueous extract each of Castor, Moringa and Jatropha leaves and seeds was used, while double distilled water (0%) served as the control. Thirty ml of each leaf and seed aqueous extract was applied, 48 hours after inoculation as soil drench. Application was done at 1 weeks intervals thereafter for a period of 16 weeks. Data collected include number of fruits per plant, root gall index, nematode reproductive factor, and final nematode population. The results showed that various Moringa oleifera, Ricinus communis and Jatropha curcas leaves and seed extracts significantly (P<0.05) reduced root gall index, final population of M. incognita in the soil and nematode reproductive factor than the control. Application of the various treatments Moringa oleifera, Ricinus communis and Jatropha curcas led to significant increase in mean number of fruits and mean fruit weight yield of all the three tomato varieties. Therefore, the application of leaf and seed aqueous extracts of Moringa, Jatropha and Castor will serve as good alternative for the management of root knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita.

“…The mixture was properly turned at an interval of one month with garden spade. The fully decomposed materials (compost) were spread, air dried and ground into powder form (Olabiyi et al 2013). Field experiment A field trail was conducted in a plot naturally infested with M. incognita in the year 2017 and repeated at the same period in the 2018 at the site located in the experimental field of 267.3 m 2 (15.5 × 22.8 m).…”

A field experiment was conducted at Landmark University Omu-Aran, Nigeria from June to November 2017 and repeated at the same time in the year 2018 on a nematode infested soil to evaluate the effects of different amounts of Siam weed compost on the performance of root-knot nematode (RKN) infested tomato. The compost was applied a week before planting as soil amendment at the amount of 0.0, 0.5, 1.5, and 2.0 t·ha−1, while carbofuran was applied at the rate of 3.0 kg·ha−1. Four weeks old tomato seedlings cultivar ‘Roma VF’, which is susceptible to RKN, was transplanted to already prepared soil. Results of the experiment showed that the compost, especially in the amount 2 t·ha−1 and carbofuran at 3 kg·ha−1, brought about significant reduction of the population of RKN in soil and roots, and a significant increase in the growth and yield of tomato. The result of the experiment showed that Siam compost can be used for the managing root-knot nematodes in tomato cultivation, as an environmentally safe factor.
