[The effect of tryptophan of plant root metabolites on the phyto stimulating activity of rhizobacteria ].

Aseptic tomato and radish roots were found to exude 2.8-5.3 and 290-390 ng tryptophan per seedling per day. The inoculation of radish plants with rhizosphere pseudomonads increased the root biomass by 1.4 times. The inoculation of tomato plants with the same pseudomonads was ineffective. The beneficial effect of bacterial inoculation on the radish plants can be explained by the fact that the introduced rhizobacteria produce the plant growth-stimulating hormone indole-3-acetic acid. In pot experiments, the addition of this phytohormone to the soil increased the mass of radish roots by 36%. The phytohormonal action of the rhizosphere microflora was found to be efficient provided that the concentration of tryptophan in the rhizosphere is sufficiently high.

Evaluation of entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema feltiae against field population of mustard sawfly, Athalia lugens proxima (Klug) on radish.

Mustard sawfly, A. lugens proxima, was found to be highly susceptible to entomopathogenic nematode, S. feltiae under laboratory condition. Application of three different doses of S. feltiae, viz. 1.1 x 10(3), 1.1 x 10(4) and 1.1 x 10(5) infective juveniles/ml, at weekly intervals, significantly reduced the field population of mustard sawfly on radish. The mean larval population of A. lugens proxima in all doses of nematode treated plots ranged from 0.42 to 0.48 larvae per plant as against 2.95 larvae / plant in untreated control plots. Similarly, the yield of radish in all the nematode treated plots was significantly higher by way of recording 2.80 to 2.87 tons/ha as compared to 1.63 tons/ha in the case of control.
