“…Many studies proved that the organisms that stimulate plant growth are characterized by their ability to produce indole, which explain the role of these organisms in improving plant growth (McSteen, 2010, Jasim, et al, 2014, Singh, 2014, Scagliola, et al, 2016, Kapadia, et al, 2022. Iron plays a direct role in the growth and development of plant cells, some microorganisms synthesize low-molecularweight iron-chelating molecules called Siderophores (Duca, et al, 2014, Swarnalatha, et al, 2022. Recent studies confirm the need of plants for phosphorous for improving the plant resistance against plant biotic stresses (Enebe and Babalola 2018, Dowarah, et al, 2021, Abd Alhakim, et al, 2022.…”

Plant parasitic nematodes are dangerous pests that infect many agricultural crops including cucumber. A greenhouse experiment was conducted in the experimental farm of Botany and Microbiology Department, Faculty of Science, Al-Azhar University, to evaluate the efficicy of Salicylic acid and Fosthiazate (melotherin®) as abiotic elicitors and Serratia marcescens as biotic elicitor against root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita infecting cucumber plants. The highest mortality percentages of M. incognita 2 nd juveniles invitro 96 hours after applying tested materrials were recorded with Fosthiazate (melotherin®) followed by salicylic acid and Serratia marcescens by 74.2%, 27.87% and 13.19 % respectively. Under greenhouse conditions, similar results were obtained, where Fosthiazate (melotherin®) was the most potent treatment in reducing nematode galls, egg masses, females, and developmental stages in infected cucumber roots by 86.15%, 93.89%, 67.81% and 73.22% respectively as well as decreased 2 nd juveniles in the soil by 79.48%, followed by Salicylic acid and Serratia marcescens respectively. Regarding to plant morphological and biochemical parameters, application of Serratia marcescens followed by salicylic acid showed significant improvements in cucumber vegetative growth and yield as well as photosynthetic pigments and antioxidant enzymes. It could be suggested that application of Fosthiazate (melotherin®), Serratia marcescens and Salicylic acid could be commercially used as safe, effective and cheap nematicides against root-knot nematodes.
