Abstract

Effects of culture filtrate from Arthrobotrys oligospora, Dactylaria brochopaga and Curvularia pallescence were tested on the hatching of M. incognita and later on main fungus also against H. zeae. A. oligospora inhibited hatching of M. incognita at all concentrations while D. brochopaga effected only at 100 to 80 per cent concentrations. C. pallescence effected H. zeae at 100 to 80 per cent concentrations.
