Control of in Three-Dimensional Model Systems and Pot Experiments by the Attract-and-Kill Effect of Furfural Acetone.

causes large-scale losses of agricultural crops worldwide. The natural metabolite furfural acetone has been reported to attract and kill , but whether the attractant and nematicidal activities of furfural acetone on function simultaneously in the same system, especially in three-dimensional spaces or in soil, is still unknown. Here, we used 23% Pluronic F-127 gel and a soil simulation device to demonstrate that furfural acetone has a significant attract-and-kill effect on in both three-dimensional model systems.

Cyclo(l-Pro⁻l-Leu) of MCCC 1A00316 Isolated from Antarctic Soil: Identification and Characterization of Activity against .

MCCC 1A00316 was originally isolated from an Antarctic soil and has demonstrated potential nematicidal activity. Thus, it has promising applications for the biological control of . The larval mortality and egg-hatching inhibition rates of will increase with the rising concentration of culture filtrates of MCCC 1A00316 and the duration of exposure.

Multiple Modes of Nematode Control by Volatiles of 1A00316 from Antarctic Soil against .

1A00316 isolated from Antarctic soil showed nematicidal potential for biological control of ; however, little was known about whether strain 1A00316 could produce volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and if they had potential for use in biological control against . In this study, VOCs produced by a culture filtrate of 1A00316 were evaluated by experiments in three-compartment Petri dishes and 96-well culture plates. Our results showed that juveniles gradually reduced their movement within 24-48 h of incubation with mortality ranging from 6.

Comparative genomic and functional analyses: unearthing the diversity and specificity of nematicidal factors in Pseudomonas putida strain 1A00316.

We isolated Pseudomonas putida (P. putida) strain 1A00316 from Antarctica. This bacterium has a high efficiency against Meloidogyne incognita (M.
