Sulfonamide modified chitosan oligosaccharide with high nematicidal activity against Meloidogyne incognita.

Chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) modification is a feasible way to develop novel green nematicides. This study involved the synthesis of various COS sulfonamide derivatives via hydroxylated protection and deprotection, which were then characterized using NMR, FTIR, MS, elemental analysis, XRD, and TG/DTG. In vitro experiments found that COS-alkyl sulfonamide derivatives (S6 and S11-S13) exhibited high mortality (>98 % at 1 mg/mL) against Meloidogyne incognita second-instar larvaes (J2s) among the derivatives.

Activity of chitin/chitosan/chitosan oligosaccharide against plant pathogenic nematodes and potential modes of application in agriculture: A review.

Chemical nematicide is the most common method of controlling plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN). Given the negative impact of chemical nematicides on the environment and ecosystem, it is necessary to seek their alternatives and novel modes of application. Chitin oligo/polysaccharide (COPS), including chitosan and chitosan oligosaccharide, has unique biological properties.

Fluoroalkenyl-Grafted Chitosan Oligosaccharide Derivative: An Exploration for Control Nematode Incognita.

The exploration of novel, environmentally friendly, and efficient nematicides is essential, and modifying natural biomacromolecules is one feasible approach. In this study, 6-O-(trifluorobutenyl-oxadiazol)-chitosan oligosaccharide derivative was synthesized and characterized by FTIR, NMR, and TG/DTG. Its bioactivity and action mode against root-knot nematode were estimated.

Efficacy of a Chitin-Based Water-Soluble Derivative in Inducing against Nematode Disease ().

Plant-parasitic nematodes cause severe economic losses annually which has been a persistent problem worldwide. As current nematicides are highly toxic, prone to drug resistance, and have poor stability, there is an urgent need to develop safe, efficient, and green strategies. Natural active polysaccharides such as chitin and chitosan with good biocompatibility and biodegradability and inducing plant disease resistance have attracted much attention, but their application is limited due to their poor solubility.

Characterization of Different Salt Forms of Chitooligosaccharides and Their Effects on Nitric Oxide Secretion by Macrophages.

In this paper, chitooligosaccharides in different salt forms, such as chitooligosaccharide lactate, citrate, adipate, etc., were prepared by the microwave method. They were characterized by SEM, FTIR, NMR, etc.

Chitosan Oligosaccharide Fluorinated Derivative Control Root-Knot Nematode () Disease Based on the Multi-Efficacy Strategy.

Plant root-knot nematode disease is a great agricultural problem and commercially available nematicides have the disadvantages of high toxicity and limited usage; thus, it is urgent to develop new nematicides derived from nature substances. In this study, a novel fluorinated derivative was synthesized by modifying chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) using the strategy of multiple functions. The derivatives were characterized by FTIR, NMR, elemental analysis, and TG/DTG.

The bioactivity of new chitin oligosaccharide dithiocarbamate derivatives evaluated against nematode disease (Meloidogyne incognita).

Plant-parasitic nematodes cause substantial crop losses annually; however, current nematicides are environmentally unfriendly and highly toxic to nontarget organisms. The development of green efficient nematicides from multifunctional natural bioactive substances such as chitin oligosaccharide (COS) is promising. In this paper, COS dithiocarbamate derivatives (COSDTC, COSDTA, COSDTB) were synthesized to increase nematicidal activity (against Meloidogyne incognita), and their structures were characterized by FTIR, NMR, TGA/DTG and elemental analysis.

Synthesis, characterization, and antifungal evaluation of diethoxyphosphoryl polyaminoethyl chitosan derivatives.

Botrytis cinerea, Phytophthora capsici Leonian, and Fusarium solani are important plant pathogenic fungi which can cause great crop losses worldwide, but their control methods are limited. It is necessary to develop efficient and green fungicides from abundant marine resources. Chitosan is a non-toxic, biodegradable, biocompatible marine polysaccharide which has prospective applications in agriculture.
