Abstract
Lannate (Dupont trademark, formerly known as Du Pont Insecticide 1179) at 16, 32, 48, and 64 ppm of technical material applied as a soil drench at transplanting time gave satisfactory control of the root-knot disease of tomatoes grown in soil infested with Meloidogyne hapla. From the standpoint of root-knot control and absence of phytotoxicity, 32 ppm was a favorable dosage level. At this concentration Lannate retarded egg production of the surviving nematodes, and its nematicidal efficacy was superior to that of other nematicides tested, at the concentrations used.
