Biocontrol Potential of Bacteriocin (class IIa) and Pseudomonas fluorescens (BICC 602) on Lycopersicon esculentum (Tomato) Cv. Pusa Ruby Plant Infected with Root-Knot Nematode Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid & White) Chitwood

The present study was carried out to establish the biocontrol potential of Bacteriocin Class IIa (BacIIa) compound and a plant growth promoting Rhizobacteria, Pseudomonas fluorescens BICC 602 on Lycopersicon esculentum (Tomato) Pusa Ruby variety infected with Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid & White) Chitwood nematode. The result of in vitro laboratory bioassay showed that application of BacIIa is safe for second-stage juveniles (J2) of M. incognita. The result of phytotoxicity test showed that BacIIa treated plants did not exhibit any toxic effects. The result of in vivo bioassay test revealed that combined treatment of P. fluorescens and BacIIa increased growth of inoculated plants in terms of shoot length, shoot weight and ischolar_main length as compared with inoculated untreated plants. Application of BacIIa and P. fluorescens also showed reduction in ischolar_main gall number and number of nematode eggs in inoculated ischolar_mains. PAL activity increased in ischolar_mains of P. fluorescens treated and P. fluorescens: BacIIa combined treated plants. Root protein content was greater in inoculated untreated plants compared to treated groups.

The result of in vitro laboratory bioassay showed that application of BacIIa is safe for second-stage juveniles (J2) of M. incognita. The result of phytotoxicity test showed that BacIIa treated plants did not exhibit any toxic effects. The result of in vivo bioassay test revealed that combined treatment of P. fluorescens and BacIIa increased growth of inoculated plants in terms of shoot length, shoot weight and ischolar_main length as compared with inoculated untreated plants. Application of BacIIa and P. fluorescens also showed reduction in ischolar_main gall number and number of nematode eggs in inoculated ischolar_mains. PAL activity increased in ischolar_mains of P. fluorescens treated and P. fluorescens: BacIIa combined treated plants. Root protein content was greater in inoculated untreated plants compared to treated groups.
