| Abstract: | Nematode numbers were assessed at 2-week intervals in a coastal savanna soil amended with neem leaves and animal manure for 12 weeks under fallow conditions. The number of plant-parasitic nematodes decreased significantly with the application of the neem-based amendments, whereas the number of non-parasitic nematodes increased. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting July 14, 2005. |
