Abstract:In the present study, we demonstrated the potent nematicidal activity of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released by the Annona muricata leaf macerate. In addition, the toxicity of the compound 4-ethylbenzaldehyde was reported in the various phases of the Meloidogyne incognita life cycle. By biofumigation, even the lowest concentration of soursop leaf macerate tested (1.0%) caused a reduction in nematode hatching, infectivity and reproduction. Analysis of the soursop volatilome performed by gas chromatograph… Show more
