is resistant to spp. and controls by soil biofumigation.

is a relevant plant-parasitic nematode that causes enormous damage. It is very challenging to control, and there are not many chemicals available on the market for that. As an alternative method of nematode control, biofumigation is increasingly gaining space.

Volatile emissions of watercress (Nasturtium officinale) leaves and passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) seeds against Meloidogyne incognita.

Watercress leaf and passion fruit seed macerates produce volatile organic compounds toxic to Meloidogyne incognita and 1-octanol, found in volatile emissions of watercress leaves, shows nematicidal activity against M. incognita.

Efficient removal of mercury from aqueous solutions and industrial effluent.

The objective of this study was to examine the ability of a solid waste produced during beneficiation of ornamental rocks to remove mercury (Hg) from an industrial effluent and aqueous solutions under various conditions. Batch studies have been carried out by observing the effects of pH, concentration of the adsorbate, contact time, and so on. Various sorption isotherm models such as Langmuir, Freundlich, and Tóth have been applied for the adsorbent.
