Screening of Plant Extracts for Nemastatic Activity
against Rhabditis sp. by 96-well microplate bioassay. The plant extracts with a concentration of 5,000 μg/ml were mixed with aqueous nematode solution containing about 20 Rhabditis sp. and their activity was examined daily for 7 days. Out of 2,714 plant extracts examined in this test, 2,362 (87.0%...

Summary: | against Rhabditis sp. by 96-well microplate bioassay. The plant extracts with a concentration of 5,000 μg/ml
were mixed with aqueous nematode solution containing about 20 Rhabditis sp. and their activity was examined
daily for 7 days. Out of 2,714 plant extracts examined in this test, 2,362 (87.0%) showed no negative influence
on the nematode activity, while 187 (6.9%) inhibited nematode activity about 50%, 95 (3.5%) inhibited
nematode activity over 90%, and 70 (2.6%) rather enhanced nematode activity. Among those showing over
50% nemastatic activity, 25 extracts were randomly selected for further screening with Rhabditis sp. and with
juveniles of Meloidogyne incognita. The screening revealed that 11 extracts (44%) were consistently n |
