New nematicides named fumiquinones A (1) and B (2), together with spinulosin (3), LL-S490beta (4), and pseurotin A (5), were isolated from Aspergillus fumigatus and their structures were established by spectroscopic methods including 2D-NMR. Compound 1 showed effective nematicidal activities against Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and Pratylenchus penetrans without inhibiting plant growth except for lettuce seedlings. Compound 2 showed effective nematicidal activity against B. xylophilus, but had no inhibitory activity against P. penetrans. Compounds 3-5 showed effective nematicidal activities against B. xylophilus without any plant growth inhibition. Compounds 1-5 had no nematicidal activity against Caenorhabditis elegans. This is the first report of the nematicidal activities of compounds 3-5.

Background: Elimination of lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a World Health Organization goal, with several countries at or near prevalence thresholds. Where LF cases remain after mass drug administration, they tend to be spatially clustered, with an overdispersed individual worm burden. Both individual and spatial heterogeneities can cause aggregation of infection; however, few studies have investigated the drivers of heterogeneity and implications for disease elimination.

This paper describes a novel in vivo study of Cymbopogon citratus (lemon grass) to assess its anthelmintic activity. To this end, C57BL/6 mice were separated into three groups: G1: uninfected; G2: negative control infected with Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri and administered with 3% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO); and G3: infected with H. polygyrus bakeri and treated with C.

Meloidogyne incognita, a highly destructive plant-parasitic nematode, poses a significant threat to crop production. The reliance on chemical nematicides for nematode control has been crucial; however, the banning of many effective nematicides due to their adverse effects has necessitated the exploration of alternative solutions. Rhizosphere biocontrol bacteria, particularly strains of Bacillus, have demonstrated promising results in managing plant-parasitic nematodes.

Avermectins (AVMs) and their derivatives are the most effective and widely used nematicides, insecticides, and acaricides against endo- and ectoparasites of plants, animals, and humans. Demand for avermectins and their highly effective derivatives has increased due to their high cost-effectiveness and wide range of applications as medicines and crop protection products. Due to the unique structures of these compounds and for industrial production purposes, numerous efforts and strategies have been dedicated to enhancing the production of avermectins and creating new analogues in recent years.

The primary aim of this research was to study the effectiveness of various strains of antagonist microorganisms and biological preparations against , in addition to their impact on the quality of tomato fruits and crop structure. Four microorganism strains and three registered environmentally safe nematicides were used in the experiment presented herein. The results showed that the strains F-22BK/6 and F-22BK/4 had the greatest biological efficacy, reducing the number of galls on tomato plants by 91.
