Abstract

Improved Baerman Funnel technique under exposures to artificial light significantly increases extraction of root-knot nematodes from soil, though amongst themselves, lights of different wave lengths did not show any significant difference in their effects on extraction efficiency. Exposures of light for 4 hours and 24 hours significantly influenced the extraction efficiency.
