Abstract
The interaction between Meloidogyne incognita and Rotylenchulus reniformis was studied under pot conditions on chilli plants. The growth and yield of the plants reduced significantly when plants were inoculated with a single pathogen. M. incognita caused more damage than R. reniformis. Plant damage was significantly greater in concomitant inoculation, when root-knot nematode preceded and/or followed the reniform nematode by 10 days apart. Maximum damage was observed when both the nematodes were inoculated simultaneously, showing a synergistic effect on plant growth and yield. The rate of multiplication of R. reniformis was adversely affected by M. incognita.
