Effect of neem-based pesticidal formulations and insecticide on mobility of second stage juveniles of Meloidogyne incognita

In-vitro study of aqueous extracts of neem-based pesticidal formulations (neem seed kernel, achook, nimbecidine, repline, Juanine, neem oil) and one insecticide (monocrotophos) was evaluated to find out their effect on mobility of second stage juveniles of Meloidogyne incognita. The mobility of second stage juveniles of Meloidogyne incognita was found to be affected markedly in the higher exposure timing and higher concentrations. Monocrotophos, neem seed kerned and achook caused maximum immobility to larvae in the present findings.
