“…Higher nematode densities not only affect the growth of the spinach plants but also reduces its nutrition value as well as impact the edibility of the leaves. Therefore, in order to manage the nematode in the fields and the damage caused by them, some strategies should be undertaken such as use of organic amendments, biocontrol agents, soil solarisation, crop rotation along with the use of resistant varieties and destroying stubble after harvesting (Kaur et al, 2015;Hasan et al, 2021;Taning et al, 2022). CONCLUSION From the results of the present study, it can be concluded that All Green variety of spinach is highly susceptible to M. incognita and the nematode can pose a serious threat to the crop.…”

Root knot nematodes are sedentary parasites that form galls in plant roots thereby reducing the water and nutrient uptake to the plant, impeding the growth, hindering the fruit production, and cause yellowing of leaves and wilting. In this study, an attempt to understand the effect of increasing Meloidogyne incognita infestation on various biochemical parameters in spinach was made. Biochemical analysis of spinach plants with varied nematode inoculum was carried out in plastic pots. Four weeks after planting, freshly hatched second-stage juveniles (J2s) were used as inoculation at the rate of 500, 1000, 2500 and 5000 J2s per pot. Uninoculated plants served as control. Each experiment was replicated three times. After 45 days of inoculation, the plants were pulled out of the pots and analysed for changes in the following biochemical parameters: chlorophyll content, protein content, total phenolic content and defense enzymes (peroxidases and polyphenol oxidases). Plants inoculated with 5000 J2s showed significantly increased levels of peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase activity as compared to the control. Chlorophyll and protein content decreased while the total phenolic content was found to increase with increasing inoculum level. All these parameters showed little to no difference in plants inoculated with 500 J2s as compared to controls. SAARC J. Agric., 21(2): 53-66 (2023)

“…in spinach was estimated to be 50-100% (Onkendi et al, 2014). This economic loss caused by the nematode could be curtailed by the involvement of different approaches in the form of chemical treatments, biocontrol agents, organic amendments and cultural practices such as crop rotation, soil solarization and antagonistic plants (Noureldeen et al, 2021;Khan et al, 2021;Hasan et al, 2021) However, for the nematode management programme these strategies should not be the sole prime option. The application of chemicals is an ordinary and most widely used tactic for the nematode management but their exploration is not feasible due to high cost benefit ratio and environmental pollution (Mukhtar et al, 2013).…”

Aim: The present study was carried out to screen ten cultivars of spinach (Spinach oleracea L.) for their response to Meloidogyne javanica under greenhouse conditions with the aim to exploit them for nematode management programme. Methodology: Ten commonly grown spinach cultivars were tested for their reaction to Meloidogyne javanica by inoculating 2000 second-stage juveniles in pots. Five seeds of each cultivar were surface sterilized with 1.0% NaOCl and sown in sterilized clay pots, placed in a completely randomized design. After three months the experiment was terminated and the plant growth, physiological and nematode infested parameters were evaluated. Results: None of the tested cultivar was immune, highly resistant or resistant to nematode infestation. Cultivars Pusa Bharti and Pahari were moderately resistant whereas Giant, All green and Kaveri were highly susceptible to nematode infestation. Five cultivars Pure green, Solan Harit, Green flavor, Super green and Kantedar were found to be susceptible. Interpretation: Growing moderately resistant cultivar in severely infested field with M. incognita may assist to minimize the root-knot nematode multiplication and thereby, reduce the crop damage below the threshold level. Thus using resistant cultivars against M. incognita can prove to be an environmentally friendly and cost-effective management approach. Key words: Meloidogyne javanica, Root-knot nematode, Spinach cultivars
