Abstract:

Efficacy of clery sage (Salvia sp.) as an organic soil amendment on the population of Meloidogyne incognita race 3 was evaluated in the screen-house. Addition of the sage residue significantly reduced gall formation (P=0.05) and egg production of M. incognita on tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Rutgers). Mixing the residue with the inoculum soil was generally less effective in suppressing gall formation and egg production compared to "on-top" placement.
