The study revealed that the observations taken for plant growth attributes and yield were comparatively higher in the plots with no pest infestation and were the lowest in the plants subjected to infestation by both root knot nematode and sucking insects. The interaction effect between different fertilizer regimes and different pest infestation was significant for all plant growth attributes and yield. The populations of these pests were lower in plants infested by both as compared to the plants subjected to sole infestation of these pests. |
