Abstract

The development of diseases in cultivated crops depends on the complex interrelationship between the host, pathogen, and prevailing environmental conditions. The interaction between the root knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica and the fungus Fusarium oxysporum was studied for the okra cultivar Pusa Sawani. Sequential and simultaneous inoculation of the nematode and fungus was performed to observe the disease severity in the plants due to the individual and interactive effects of the tested nematode and fungus. The results indicated that plant growth was adversely affected in all cases where the plant was inoculated with M. javanica and F. oxysporum, compared to the uninoculated control. The study clearly showed that nematodes act as predisposing factors in the spread of secondary fungal pathogens.
