Granular formulation (prepared in wheat bran, maidha, vegetable oil) of Arthrobotrys oligospora, Paecilomyces lilacinus, Verticillium chlamydosporium, Gliocladium virens and Trichoderma harzianum reduced nematode multiplication and resulted in improved growth of tomato plants. V. chalamydosporium resulted in 53.7% parasitization of egg masses of Meloidogyne incognita followed by P. lilacinus (34.5%)
