Nemarioc-AL and Nemafric-BL phytonematicides consistently reduced populations of plant-parasitic nematodes. The contribution of juvenile hatch inhibition to the overall reduction of the nematode numbers by the two phytonematicides, with cucurbitacin A and B as active ingredients, respectively, remains undocumented. The objectives of this study were to examine (i) the response of Meloidogyne incognita second-stage juveniles (J2) hatch to increasing concentration of cucurbitacins A and B, (ii) the potential saturation of J2 hatch when exposed to cucurbitacins for extended incubation periods, (iii) the minimum inhibition concentration for J2 hatch and (iv) the reversibility of J2 hatch inhibition.. Eggs of M. incognita were exposed to a series of purified cucurbitacin A and B concentrations over five incubation periods of 24, 48, 72?h and extended incubation periods of 7 and 10 days. Methanol-dissolved cucurbitacin A and B were each diluted and pipetted into well-plates making 11 concentrations, ranging from 0.0 to 2.5 µg.ml?1 water solvent. Juvenile counts were made after 24, 48 and 72?h, with those for saturation assessed at 7 and 10 days. Thereafter, treatments were diluted five times, incubated again for 5 days and counted to establish reversibility of J2 hatch inhibition. In all incubation periods, treatment effects were highly significant (P?≤?0.01), with J2 hatch and cucurbitacin concentrations exhibiting quadratic relations. Minimum inhibition concentrations of the two cucurbitacins were between 1.13 and 1.40?µg.ml?1. Treatment effects for reversibility to J2 hatch inhibition were not significant (P?>?0.05). In conclusion, J2 hatch inhibition could be one of the waysthrough which the two phytonematicides reduced population densities of Meloidogyne species.  相似文献

Cucurbitacin-containing phytonematicides consistently reduce nematode population densities in various crops. However, there is no information on how these products affect the accumulation of essential nutrient elements in crops. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of Nemafric-BL and Nemarioc-AL phytonematicides on accumulation of essential nutrient elements in leaf tissues of green bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) under greenhouse conditions. Weekly application of phytonematicides each at 0%, 2%, 4%, 8%, 16% and 32%, were assessed on plant growth variables, nematode suppression and nutrient elements (Ca, K, Na, Fe, Zn) in leaf tissues of green bean at 56 days after initiating the treatments. Phytonematicide concentrations significantly (P?≤?0.05) affected nematode numbers and nutrient elements, without affecting plant growth. Calcium (R2?=?0.97), K (R2?=?0.93), Na (R2?=?0.94) and Fe (R2?=?0.91) each with increasing Nemafric-BL phytonematicide concentration exhibited positive quadratic relations. In contrast, K (R2?=?0.97) and Fe (R2?=?0.98) each with increasing Nemarioc-AL phytonematicide concentration exhibited positive quadratic relations, whereas Na (R2?=?0.92) and Zn (R2?=?0.72) each with increasing phytonematicide concentration exhibited negative quadratic relations. In conclusion, accumulation of essential nutrient elements in green bean leaf tissues and increasing phytonematicide concentrations exhibited density-dependent growth patterns prior to the eventual expression of plant growth responses.  相似文献

The release of active ingredient chemicals in conventional organic amendments is primarily through microbial degradation, whereas in granular phytonematicides, leaching through irrigation water had been implied as a probable mechanism. The objective of this study was to determine the role of effective microorganisms (EM) on the efficacy of Nemarioc-AG (NAG; G?=?granular formulation) phytonematicide on suppression of root-knot (Meloidogyne species) nematodes and growth of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants. A 5?×?6 factorial experiment, with EM at 0%, 0.14%, 0.17%, 0.20% and 0.25% and phytonematicide at 0, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15?g per plant, was conducted under microplot conditions. Each plant was inoculated with 11,000 eggs and second-stage juveniles (J2) of Meloidogyne incognita. Seventy days after initiating the treatments, the interactions were not significant (P?≥?.05) on all variables, but the main factors were highly significant. Regression of nematode population densities, root gall and dry shoot mass over increasing phytonematicide concentration exhibited quadratic relations, which were explained by 93%, 97% and 99%, respectively. In contrast, stem diameter and phytonematicide concentration had a positive linear relation, which was explained by 98%. Nematode numbers over increasing EM concentration exhibited quadratic relation, which was explained by 97%. All plant variables and EM had no significant relations. In conclusion, the efficacy of NAG phytonematicide on nematode suppression and plant growth was independent of EM activities, suggesting that irrigation water played a major role in the efficacy of the product in granular formulation.  相似文献

Experimental System: Fermented dried fruit of wild cucumber (Cucumis myriocarpus Naude.) Had been successfully used as Nemarioc-AL phytonematicide in managing plant-parasitic nematodes in various cropping systems. However, the specialised oven-drying equipment are inaccessible to most resource-poor smallholder farmers in marginalised communities. Procedures: The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of fermented crudes extracts of C. myriocarpus fruit when used in fresh form as Nemarioc-AL phytonematicide on management of population densities of root-knot (Meloidogyne species) nematodes and growth of tomato (Solanum lycorpersicum L.) plants. Seedlings at five leaf-stage were transplanted into pots containing 2700?ml steam-pasteurised river sand and Hygromix at 3:1 (v/v) ratio. Each seedling was inoculated with approximately 3000 eggs and second-stage juveniles (J2) at transplanting. The phytonematicide was applied at 0%, 2%, 4%, 8%, 16%, 32% and 64%, arranged in a randomised complete block design, with five replications and validated in time. Results: At 56 days after treatment, nematode variables and phytonematicide concentrations exhibited negative quadratic relations, with coeffients of determination (COD) ranging from 93% to 97%. Similarly, plant variables and phytonematicide concentrations exhibited positive quadratic relations, with COD from 96% to 98%. Conclusions: In conclusion, when prepared from fresh fruit of C. myriocarpus, Nemarioc-AL phytonematicide was suitable for use in managing nematode population densities of Meloidogyne species in tomato production.  相似文献

Interactive effects of alternatives to methyl bromide on root-knot (Meloidogyne species) nematodes could provide information on whether to use the products combined or singularly. The objective of this study was to investigate the interactive effects of Nemarioc-AL phytonematicide, Steinernema feltiae and Trichoderma harzianum on eggs and reproductive factors of Meloidogyne incognita race 2 under greenhouse conditions. The interactive effects of Nemarioc-AL phytonematicide (N), S. feltiae (S) and T. harzianum (T) on population densities of M. incognita were examined in a 2?×?2?×?2 factorial experiment in pots filled with steam-pasteurised soil. Each tomato seedling was inoculated with 2000 eggs and second-stage juveniles (J2), with phytonematicide and biocontrol agents applied at commercial rates. At 56 days after the treatments, the second-order (N1S1T1) interaction reduced eggs and the reproductive factor (RF) in roots by 100% and 93%, respectively. Similarly, the first-order (N1S0T1) interaction reduced the two variables by 92% and 72%, respectively, whereas N1S1T0 interaction had 63% and 55% reduction effects, respectively. Nemarioc-AL phytonematicide was compatible with S. feltiae and T. harzianum and could, therefore, be used collectively to manage population densities of M. incognita.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

A pot experiment was carried out to investigate the tolerance of cucumber plants (Cucumis sativus L.) to root-knot nematode after inoculation with Glomus intraradices. Plants were inoculated with G. intraradices for four weeks and then transplanted in soil treated with Meloidogyne incognita for a further five weeks. The low phosphorus (P) loamy soil was amended with 50 and 100 mg P kg?1 soil. Mycorrhizal colonization increased shoot dry weight, shoot length, leaf numbers, root fresh weight and shoot P concentration, whereas nematode penetration and reproduction were significantly decreased. Similarly, P fertilization usually increased shoot growth and significantly decreased the number of galls and the number of egg masses and eggs per g root. Our results indicate that inoculation with G. intraradices and P fertilizer confer tolerance of cucumber plants to M. incognita by enhancing plant growth and by suppressing reproduction and/or galling of nematodes during the early stages of plant growth.  相似文献

A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of pre-inoculation of cucumber plants with each of the three arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi Glomus intraradices, Glomus mosseae, and Glomus versiforme on reproduction of the root knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. All three AM fungi tested significantly reduced the root galling index, which is the percentage of total roots forming galls. Numbers of galls per root system were significantly reduced only in the G. intraradices + M. incognita treatment. The number of eggs per root system was significantly decreased by AM fungus inoculation, no significant difference among the three AM fungal isolates. AM inoculation substantially decreased the number of females, the number of eggs g−1 root and of the number of eggs per egg mass. The number of egg masses g−1 root was greatly reduced by inoculation with G. mosseae or G. versiforme. By considering plant growth, nutrient uptake, and the suppression of M. incognita together, G. mosseae and G. versiforme were more effective than G. intraradices.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

We studied the bioactive compound of the fungus Simplicillium chinense strain Snef5, isolated from its culture filtrate. Following purification by chromatography, the structure of the secondary metabolite, identified as 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid, was determined by spectroscopic methods (IR, 1H, and 13C NMR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The metabolite exhibited antimicrobial activity against M. incognita with an LD50 of 0.229?mg/ml. The light microscope was used to observe the surface and internal cellular micro-structure of the nematodes. The results of the microscopy indicated that the anatomy of the J2 of M. incognita was disrupted following exposure to 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid. This is the first report on the activity of 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid of S. chinense metabolites on the root knot nematode. It showed a high level of nematicidal activity. Our data on the inhibitory effects of 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid suggest that secondary metabolites from Snef5 have potential use as novel biological control agents.  相似文献

Abstract

Host resistance in managing the southern root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) is limited by the existence of races of this nematode species. Pepper (Capistrano frutens) cultivar ‘Capistrano’ released for resistance against M. incognita races 3 and 4 in Central and South America, was evaluated for host-status and host-sensitivity to M. incognita race 2 in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Plants in pots uninoculated or inoculated with nematodes were arranged in a completely randomized design, with 15 replications. At 120 days after inoculation, the reproductive factor was less than unity, while nematode infection had no effect on plant growth. Thus, the cultivar is resistant to M. incognita race 2 and could be included in crop rotation systems intended to suppress population densities of M. incognita race 2.  相似文献

The benzoxazinoid 2,4-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIBOA) is produced by rye (Secale cereale) and may contribute to plant-parasitic nematode suppression when rye plants are incorporated as a green manure. We investigated the fate of DIBOA in soil and DIBOA's effects on nematode reproduction. Soil in plastic bags was treated with DIBOA at concentrations ranging from 1.1 to 18 μg g−1 dry soil, and with the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. Control soils were treated with water or with 0.31% methanol, with or without nematodes. DIBOA concentrations extracted from the soil were measured at selected times for 5 consecutive days. The soil from each bag was then placed into a pot in the greenhouse, and a cucumber seedling was transplanted into each pot. Five weeks later, only the highest DIBOA concentration, 18 μg g−1 soil, reduced nematode egg numbers. At 0 h, DIBOA measured in soil ranged from 19.68 to 35.51% of the initial DIBOA concentration, and was dependent on the concentration added to the soil. DIBOA half-life was from 18 to 22 h, and very little DIBOA was present in soil after 120 h. Identified breakdown products accounted for only 4% at maximum of the initially added DIBOA. The results of our study demonstrate that high soil concentrations of DIBOA are necessary to suppress M. incognita; DIBOA may not be a major factor in nematode suppression by a rye cover crop.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Experimental system: Due to serious economic challenges posed by root-knot (Meloidogyne species) nematodes in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) production, the Sweet Potato Programme (SPP) of the Agricultural Research Council (ARC) in South Africa has since included screening for nematode host-status in its breeding-selection activities. Procedures: 20 sweet potato lines were screened against M. javanica, M. incognita race 2 and M. incognita race 4 in parallel trials inoculated with 3000 eggs and second-stage juveniles (J2) per established cutting. Results: At 56 days after inoculation, the reproductive potential (RP) of all test Meloidogyne species on sweet potato line 1990-10-2 was zero, whereas RP values on other lines were 19.48–342.7, 31.9–995.1 and 10.3–380.44 ranges for M. javanica, M. incognita race 2 and M. incognita race 4, respectively. Conclusion: Among the test sweet potato lines, line 1990-10-2 was non-host to populations of tropical Meloidogyne species in South Africa and could, therefore, be subjected to nematode resistance tests.  相似文献

Disease complex of carrot (Daucus carota L.) involving root knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita and two fungi Alternaria dauci and Rhizoctonia solani were studied in three soil types. More plant growth, chlorophyll, carotenoid and proline contents were found in carrot grown in fly ash mix soil than plants grown in sand mix soil and loamy soil. Inoculation of M. incognita, R. solani, and A. dauci reduced plant growth, chlorophyll and carotenoid but increased proline contents. Inoculation of M. incognita 20 days prior to a fungal pathogen caused a greater reduction in plant growth, chlorophyll and carotenoid than fungal pathogen was inoculated prior. Inoculation of A. dauci prior to R. solani or vice versa had a similar effect on plant growth, chlorophyll, and carotenoid. Nematode multiplication and galling was higher in plants grown in sand mix soil followed by loamy soil and fly ash mix soil. Both fungi had adverse effects on galling and nematode multiplication. Blight disease index caused by A. dauci was 3 and crown rot index by R. solani was also recorded 3. These disease indices were 5 when pathogens were inoculated in combinations.  相似文献

Glasshouse experiments were conducted to assess the influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi (Glomus mosseae and Gigaspora margarita) and organic fertilizers (cow dung, horse dung, goat dung and poultry manure) alone and in combination on the reproduction of the nematode Meloidogyne incognita and on growth and water loss of tomato. Meloidogyne incognita decreased water loss of tomato from the first week onwards after inoculation. AM fungi increased water loss of both nematode-infected and uninfected plants. Glomus mosseae was better at improving growth of tomato and reducing galling and nematode multiplication than G. margarita, but the rate of water loss was similar with both fungi. Addition of organic fertilizers improved growth of tomato, but decreased the rate of water loss. There was less galling and nematode multiplication with poultry manure, which improved tomato growth more than goat dung, while cow dung was the least effective organic fertilizer. Greatest plant growth and least nematode reproduction were observed in plants inoculated with M. incognita along with G. mosseae and poultry manure.  相似文献

Interference of nematode infection with mineral malnutrition (MMN) elements in biofortificated cultigens could devalue the health potential of such crops for humans. A pot trial was conducted to determine the response of selected MMN elements in African ginger (Siphonochilus aethiopicus) pseudo-stems to the southern root-knot (Meloidogyne incognita) nematode. Fifty-six days after inoculation, the sensitivity of the pseudo-stems to nematode infection was confirmed, with 23–45% reduced potassium in pseudo-stem tissues, but had no effect on other MMN elements. In conclusion, population densities of M. incognita race 2 should be managed to enhance the potential uses of S. aethiopicus as a biofortification crop.  相似文献

First and fourth instar C. riparius larvae hatched from the same egg mass were briefly exposed to equivalent assumed doses (mg hr) of Cd and adult emergence monitored for up to 50 days post hatch. Significantly more animals survived to emerge from control conditions than from any of the test solutions. For fourth instar larvae the presence or absence of artificial sediment during testing had no significant effect upon subsequent emergence. In terms of equivalent assumed doses, exposure to a high concentration for a short time resulted in a reduced emergence in comparison to exposure at a lower concentration for a longer time. There was a delay of several days between the time from hatch to first emergence and median emergence time for larvae exposed as fourth instars but not for those exposed at the first instar stage.  相似文献

Abstract

Wild watermelon (Cucumis africanus) and wild cucumber (Cucumis myriocarpus), which are highly resistant to the southern root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) race 2, have the potential for serving as seedling rootstocks for the highly nematode-susceptible watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) cultivars. In South Africa, due to high labour costs, most cotton farmers are turning to watermelon production. In these regions, there is high incidence of M. incognita race 4. A pot experiment in the greenhouse was, therefore, initiated to investigate the host-status and host-sensitivity of Cucumis africanus and Cucumis myriocarpus to M. incognita race 4, when inoculated with 0, 200, 600, 100, 1400, 1800 and 2200 eggs and second-stage juveniles (J2s). At harvest, 56 days after inoculation, the reproductive factor values at all levels of inoculation were less than one. Penetration indices on both plant species were greater than one, suggesting that the resistance was post-infectional and therefore, introgressible. Sex (male: female) ratios of M. incognita race 4 on the two Cucumis species were greater than one, suggesting that more J2s were converted into males. Infection of Cucumis species by the test nematode had no effect on yield components of the two plant species due to poor feeding sites. The two Cucumis species were, therefore, resistant to M. incognita race 4, with post-infectional resistance, where the sex ratio was skewed towards maleness. Thus, the two Cucumis species have the potential to be used as nematode-resistant rootstocks in watermelon production.  相似文献

Most beetroot (Beta vulgaris) cultivars in South Africa are exotic and were specifically bred for root-knot (Meloidogyne species) nematode populations in their countries of origin. Due to the widespread distribution of different Meloidogyne species and races, exotic cultivars should be matched with nematode populations in importing countries. The objective of this study was to determine the interrelations between exotic beetroot cultivars ‘Detroit Red Dark’ and ‘Crimson Globe’ with Meloidogyne species in the predominant beetroot-producing regions in South Africa. Different inoculum series of M. incognita and M. javanica were used on the two beetroot cultivars. At 56 days after initiating the treatments, roots of both cultivars had small undeveloped root galls, with the reproductive factor values of M. incognita on ‘Detroit Dark Red’ being above and below unity at low (≤125 inoculation) and high (≥250 inoculation) nematode levels, respectively. Growth of ‘Detroit Dark Red’ was significantly stimulated and inhibited at low and high nematode infection levels, respectively. In contrast, RF values for M. javanica on ‘Crimson Globe’ were below unity, without any significant effects on plant growth. In conclusion, ‘Detroit Dark Red’ was tolerant to M. incognita, whereas ‘Crimson Globe’ was resistant to M. javanica.  相似文献

Plant‐pathogenic nematodes are a major cause of crop damage worldwide, the current chemical nematicides cause environmental damage, but alternatives such as biological control are less effective, so further understanding of the relationship between nematodes, nematicides, biological control agents and soil and rhizosphere microorganisms is needed. Microbial populations from roots of cabbage and tomato plants infested with the root‐knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita were compared with those from plants where the nematode was controlled by the nematicide aldicarb, or a nematophagous fungus with biological control potential, Pochonia chlamydosporia. The total numbers of culturable bacteria and fungi in rhizosphere soil were similar in all three treatments for both plants, around 100‐fold more than in control soil in which there were no plants. However, there were clear differences in the catabolic diversity, assessed by Biolog EcoPlate? carbon substrate utilization assays, between microbial populations from unplanted soil and the rhizosphere. In cabbage, a poor host for M. incognita, the rhizosphere population from P. chlamydosporia‐treated plants was distinct from the population from untreated and aldicarb‐treated plants. In tomato, a host susceptible to the nematode, the catabolic diversity of populations from aldicarb‐ and P. chlamydosporia‐treated plants was similar and differed from the untreated, nematode‐infested plants. The genetic diversity of the fast‐growing heterotrophic bacteria in the tomato rhizosphere, indicated by PCR fingerprinting with ERIC primers, was very different in the infested roots, whereas the profiles of isolates from both aldicarb‐ and P. chlamydosporia‐treated roots were similar. Evidently, nematodes have a greater impact on the rhizosphere population of a susceptible host, tomato, than a poor one, cabbage, and nematode‐infested roots are colonized by a different subpopulation of soil microbes from that on plants where infection is controlled, illustrating differences in root morphology and physiology.  相似文献

In order for cholinesterase (ChE) activity to be used as an effective biomarker in earthworms, the time course of enzyme activity inhibition and recovery must be fully characterized. A laboratory experiment was carried out using parathion as a model organophosphorus pesticide at the recommended dose (1 mg kg−1) and a 10 fold higher dose (10 mg kg−1), on two earthworm species (Allolobophora chlorotica and Aporrectodea caliginosa). ChE activity and weight were measured every week for a 14 day period of exposure to parathion and then for 8 weeks in uncontaminated soil. After 3 days of exposure, the weight of both earthworm species had decreased by 10–15% compared to the control, regardless of the dose used. During the remainder of the exposure period, no differences were observed between the two doses for A. chlorotica; but A. caliginosa showed rapid weight recuperation for the lowest dose applied. After 28 days and over, the control and both exposed species of worms lost similar amounts of weight. ChE inhibition was measured during and after the exposure period. ChE inhibition followed a different time course for the two species investigated. A. chlorotica appeared less sensitive to parathion than A. caliginosa. In this latter species, ChE inhibition was rapid at close to 70% of the control after 3 days, for either dose, and reached 80–90% after 7 days exposure. While A. chlorotica exhibited the same pattern of inhibition for 10 mg kg−1 of parathion, the inhibition process was slower for the recommended dose with 50% inhibition after 7 days of exposure and 70% after 14 days. ChE activity recovery, after transfer to uncontaminated soil, also followed a different pattern for the two species. After exposure to 1 mg kg−1 parathion, ChE activity from A. chlorotica underwent a slow but constant recovery process to regain the control value after 8 weeks in unpolluted conditions. On the other hand, the ChE activity from A. caliginosa remained strongly inhibited. The differential susceptibility to parathion found in this study could be related to differences in the specificity of the total ChE activities between those two species.  相似文献
