Abstract

The present study has been carried out to evaluate the effect of different concentrations (5, 10, 15 ppm)of the root extract of Aerva lanata against the different inoculum levels (5, 10 and 15 egg masses) of root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita on biochemical constituents of Bengal gram, Cicer arietinum. The results of the control and experimental plants were analyzed after 45 days, the biochemical constituents of Bengal gram such as, Protein, Amino acid and chlorophyll content were found to be decreased with increasing inoculum levels of egg masses and increased with increasing concentrations of root extract treatment except phenol content.
