Root-knot nematodes,Meloidogyne incongitawas found to causethemajorproblemsrecordedonvegetablesinOman. Theirdamage, however, was found to be comparatively high on tomatoes. This trial was therefore conducted to compare the use of traditional nematicides recommended forthecontrolwiththeefficiencyofusing mycorrhizal fungi as a means of biological control. The treatments used included a noninoculatedcontroland an inoculatedcontrolwith nematodes in addition to two treatments to which nematicides were added ( Mocap3 and Vydate 3) , plus two more treatments , where mycorrhizal fungi was added( a and b).Results revealed thatthe nematicide Mocap3was superiorincontrollingnematodes populationintomatoesfollowedbythe addition ofmycorrhiza(b) resulting in 98and 97% reduction in galls/plant, respectively. The nematicide Vydate3 and Mycorrhiza (a), however, reduced the number of galls/plant to 86 and 90%, respectively. Regarding other growth traits, Mocap3 and Mycorrhiza(b) outyielded all othertreatmentssignificantlyin fruitnumbers.100 and44% increasein fruitnumbers was obtainedover theuninoculatedcontroltreatment ,respectively.
