Note the reduced nodule size and nodule number in photos 2 and 3
(Paecilomyces Lilacinus , Copper Sulfate) and the increased nodule
size and nodule number in photos 6,7 and 8 ( Chitin, Chitin +
Pasteuria Penetrans and Chitin +Clove Oil )

Discussion
• The data supported Tilka(06), showing that biocontrols can limit SCN and the
development of SCN resistance
• The results concurred with Tian(07), that Chitin stimulates bacteria like Rhizobium
and Pasteuria Penetrans which are beneficial to soy
• The data supported Concibido(04), that heavy metal pesticides not only harm
Rhizobium populations but other plant functions
•The data agreed with Chen (08), showing that damage to Rhizobium populations
caused reduced nodulation and nitrogen content which resulted in diminished plant
health
•The data refuted Dickson(04), showing that Paecilomyces Lilacinus reduces
Rhizobium populations and therefore negatively affects plant health
Limitations
•C.elegans had to be used as a model organism for SCN
•The plants were grown in a greenhouse instead of a farm environment
Conclusion
•The alternate hypothesis was supported by the data
•The data showed that biocontrols can be combined (Chitin, Pasteuria Penetrans) to
increase their effectiveness
•Resistant Rhizobium cannot completely the eliminate negative effects of pesticides on
plants
Future Studies
•Different types of pesticides could be used
•Different concentrations of pesticides could be used
•SCN or Root Knot nematodes could be used as the parasite instead of a model organism
