Abstract Taking 19 plants as experimental material,this paper studies the effects of different accompanying plants on controlling tomato root-knot nematode and promoting tomato growth.The results of preliminary and secondary screening indicated that 4 plants including rape,tillering onion,mint and fennel accompanying tomato could significantly reduce the number of tomato root-knot and its root-knot index.The relative control effect was 58.7%-82.8%.They had no remarkable inhibitory effect on tomato growth.Thus,they can be used as effective accompanying plants to reduce tomato root-knot nematode disease.
