Abstract
Pot and laboratory experiments were conducted to study the efficacy of supreme 15 CS in varying doses for management of root- knot nematode, M. incognita in tomato. The results indicated that supreme 15 CS containing alkali metal N-(n-propyl) Dithiocarbamate proved to be more effective in improving plant growth characters and reducing root-knot index and final nematode population. Among the doses tested, higher dose of 0.5 % (w/w) was more effective than lower doses.
