Abstract
According to the nematicidal potential effect of medical plants, they are
considered as potential safe tool in the biocontrol of phytonematodes. This method of
nematode management fits well into agricultural practices and integrated pest control
programs. The aim of this present study is to investigate the effect of six medical
plants; ( Pelargoni‘um gravestone. Darura metal, Simmondisa chinensr's, Cymbopogon
citrafus, Thymus vulgaris and An’emisia herbs-aloe) for suppressrng root-knot
nematode development under greenhouse conditions. The results reported that
Melor‘dogyne incognifa was greatly affected by the previous medical plants and also
with there level of intercropping, where they had a pronounced effect on nematode
reproduction The Pelergonfum gravealens appears the greatest effect out of the six
medical plants used at the level of four plants per pot. Whereas the lowest number of
egg-masses and larvae were obtained at the level of intercropping 4 plants per pot.
Keywords: Root—knot nematode. Meloidogyne incognlta, medical plants,
intercropping levels.
