acid soils by forming aluminum complex and increasing base saturation (Shiralipour et al., 1992; Van den Berghe and Hue, 1999). Inorganic nitrogen fertilizers lower soil pH that, in turn, adversely affect soil biodiversity, overall soil health, and crop yield (Singh et al., 2013). However, increase in soil pH due to integrated application with higher rates of PC and PC alone is desirable, especially in acidic soils (Singh et al., 2013).
Urea application increased residual soil NO3-N at the end of

bionematicides/organic amendments that could be effective against PPN while displaying no negative impact on beneficial EPN. This research is therefore the first of its kind in this context.
This study is designed to examine the effects of a proprietary soil health product blend of fermentation and plant extracts with micronutrients (ACS 5075, Alltech®, Inc., Nicholasville, KY USA), on the egg hatching and survival of the root-knot nematodes M. javanica and M. incognita, while studying its compatibility with

Mini Review
The excessive use of mineral fertilizers causes many negative consequences for the environment as well as potentially dangerous effects of chemical residues in plant tissues on the health of human and animal consumers. Bio-fertilizers are formulations of beneficial microorganisms, which upon application can increase the availability of nutrients by their biological activity and help to improve soil health. Microbes involved in the formulation of bio-fertilizers not only mobilize N and P

Meta-analysis
The procedures and terminology of Borenstein et al. (2009) were followed in this analysis. Comprehensive meta-analysis (CMA) software was used to estimate effects of different levels of moderator on nematodes based on their confidence intervals, P
