Abstract:Summary
This study aimed to evaluate the nematicidal activity of the Tithonia diversifolia leaf extract (TDE) against Meloidogyne incognita under in vitro and pot conditions. In addition, the antioxidant activity of TDE was evaluated using the 2,2-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) and 2,2′-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assays. The results revealed that TDE possesses antioxidant potential. Nematicidal activity bioassays revealed that the TDE treatment resulted in 3.0, 16.3, 36.… Show more
