“…As part of a project to develop alternative control method for root-knot nematodes, this study was conducted to determine the effects of E. sativa and R. sativus. Recently, several studies have been carried out on the effect in the control of nematodes of green manure of Brassicaceae plants 4,10,17,27 . Lopez-Perez et al 28 showed that that wintergrown broccoli, followed by incorporating the crop residue into the soil, benefited a following M. incognita-susceptible vegetable crop.…”

“…Today, biofumigation is the leader option for the application of fumigation by natural means. In numerous reports, biofumigation with Brassicaceae was found effective to control soil pests including root-knot nematodes 4,5 . Most Brassica species release chemical compounds that may be toxic to soil borne pathogens and pests, such as nematodes, fungi, and some weeds.…”

An experiment was conducted to search the efficacy of radish (Raphanus sativus) and arugula (Eruca sativa) for the control of Meloidogyne arenaria in the commercial tomato growing greenhouse. R. sativus and E. sativa were used as winter cycle crops and lettuce as a susceptible crop and 4 months after sowing, host level of the treatment plants was evaluated. All parts of R. sativus and E. sativa were incorporated except lettuce was covered with transparent polyethylene film for 4 weeks. R. sativus and E. sativa had not any root galls, and these plants caused reducing number of juveniles in the soil, in contrast to control and lettuce plots before growing tomato. Gall index and egg masses were significantly decreased on tomatoes in plots of applied biofumigation with E. sativa and R. sativus. It was concluded that growing R. sativus and E. sativa as a winter cycle plants before susceptible plants would be helpful to reduce the damage of root-knot nematode M. arenaria and increased crop yields.

“…Nematode attacks in greenhouses are a real threat for farmers in Italy, especially in the southern coastal area of Sicily, where 70% of Italian tomato production is concentered. Several authors evaluated the effective nematocidal control of biofumigants on crops grown in pots [21,25,42,43]. In order to provide a useful applicative tool for farmers, we focused mainly on marketable fruit yield and tomato health in relation to the sinigrin dose inserted into the soil.…”

“…The percentage of reduction of M. javanica larvae into the soil amended with mustard enhanced the quality of tomato fruits, such as total sugars, total amino acids, and total phenols [16]. Daneel et al [42] tested two CVs of different species of Brassicaceae (Eruca sativa, Brassica juncea, and Raphanus sativus) as biofumigants against M. incognita and M. javanica in tomato and potato crops. The authors found that none of the Brassicaceae biofumigants used for potato crop significantly reduced the population levels of M. incognita, whereas some effects were ascertained for tomato crops in relation to used CVs.…”

Tomato crops are affected in Mediterranean cold-greenhouse agrosystems by soilborne diseases, such as root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), which represent a serious problem leading to losses in production. Agroecological soil management based on biocontrol agents and natural compounds has had increased grower interest in order to reduce chemical residues in the produce and to adopt environmentally friendly farming methods. In this frame, we evaluate and validate soil biofumigation by the use of glucosinolate (GLS) compounds. Among them, sinigrin showed biocontrol activities against several pests and diseases via nematotoxic action. Among the Brassicaceae species rich in sinigrin, we chose Brassica macrocarpa Guss. (BM) because its leaves show 90% of all GLSs, and we could better estimate the action of this single GLS. Different dosages of BM leaf flour, containing 200 to 300, 350, 400, 450, and 650 μmol m−2 of sinigrin, were inserted into soil already infected by Meloidogyne spp. for evaluating their effects on tomatoes grown in cold greenhouses in comparison to absolute control (CTRL) and to the chemical one, Vydate 5G® (CCTRL). The root disease index, caused by nematode attack, was the highest in CTRL, and a reduction of about 50% was observed with the 300 to 650 μmol m−2 sinigrin dosage. The CCTRL showed twofold marketable yield increase, and a fourfold increase was found in 650 μmol m−2 of sinigrin dosage, in comparison to the CTRL. Biofumigant applications improved tomato plant growth and development, and fruit quality, significantly for dry matter and soluble sugars (°Brix). BM leaf flour inserted into the soil, at a dose of 300 μmol m−2 of sinigrin, showed similar effects to the CCTRL on root disease index, root weight, and marketable yield. Data showed the nematotoxic effect of sinigrin for the biocontrol of Meloydogine spp. by the use of B. macrocarpa leaves, very rich in this GLS compound, which represents a new tool for agroecological soil management and for organic farming.

“…Substantial technological advances have already been achieved in terms of tests and validation, and commercial products based on the cake obtained from pressing brassica seeds are available for oil extraction, liquid formulations, pellets, leaf extracts, and brassica-based oils (LORD et al, 2011;NICOLA et al, 2013;CURTO et al, 2016;WEI et al, 2016;SERRANO-PéREz et al, 2017;RONCATO et al, 2018;RUBAYET et al, 2018;PONTES et al, 2019). To date, species of the Brassicaceae family have been tested and used in various countries such as Italy, India, Australia, China, the United Kingdom, Spain, the United States, Argentina, South Africa, Germany, Switzerland (MATTHIESSEN & KIRKEGAARD, 2006;KIRKEGAARD, 2009;DONALD et al, 2010;PERNIOLA et al, 2012;LAzzERI et al, 2013;MICHEL, 2014;LADHALAKSHMI et al, 2015;WEI et al, 2016;PAN et al, 2017;RÍOS et al, 2017;DANEEL et al, 2018;DUTTA et al, 2019;JIN et al, 2019;CAMPANELLA et al, 2020;HANSCHEN & WINKELMANN, 2020;MORRIS et al, 2020), andBrazil (OLIVEIRA et al, 2011;BARROS et al, 2014;RONCATO et al, 2018). Results obtained around the world have been promising.…”

Biofumigation with species of the Brassicaceae family: a review

Biofumigation involves the release of volatile biocidal compounds in the soil through the incorporation of certain plants and their residues. Species of the Brassicaceae family are the most widely used plants for biofumigation. These plants contain glucosinolates, which produce compounds, such as isothiocyanates, following enzymatic hydrolysis, with scientifically proven fungicidal effects. The most commonly used brassica species belong to the genera Brassica, Raphanus, Sinapis, and Eruca. In addition to the release of compounds in the soil, complementary mechanisms, such as the supply of organic matter and nutrients, and improvement of the soil structure, also play a role in biofumigation. In the past two decades, several studies on the use of brassica residues in biofumigation have been published, showing promising results in the management of soil pathogens (fungi and oomycetes, nematodes, bacteria, and protozoa), weed seeds, and insects. Usage of new biofumigation compounds has also been validated in recent years, including the development of patented technological products such as liquid formulations and pellets. The objective of this article was to review these new developments, beginning with concepts related to biofumigation, and to discuss the mechanisms of action of compounds involving brassica species and the recommendations on usage. Promising examples of the use of this technique are also presented, further detailing the advances in basic and applied knowledge on the subject.
