Biological control is considered as new efficient method that becomes widely used for controlling plant parasitic nematodes, as aim to decrease the extent of environment degradation and the effect of the excessive toxic nematicides. So, this study was done to investigate the role of some bacterial genera as biocontrol agent against Meloidogyne incognita. The results of in pot house experiments indicated that, all tested bacteria have a greatly significant effectiveness for suppressing M. incognita. Pot house results showed that significantly increased (80.32 cm) plant height was recorded with Pacilomyces lilacinus followed by Bacillus subtilis (72.23 cm), T. harzianum (68.77 cm) and P. chlamydosporia (64.52 cm) over control. The effects of T. viride, T. harzianum and Pacilomyces lilacinus tills were though non-significant but superior over control (52.54 cm). Maximum root length (20.67 cm) was recorded with Pacilomyces lilacinus followed by Bacillus subtilis (17.63 cm) and T. harzianum (14.67 cm).
