Nematicidal activity of Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch. root extracts on Meloidogyne incognita eggs and juveniles

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: This study evaluated the in vitro nematicidal activity of Glycyrrhiza uralensis root extracts (GuRE) on Meloidogyne incognita eggs and juveniles.The results showed that treatment of M. incognita eggs with 2.0 mg/mL GuRE for 5 and 10 d resulted in 64.0 and 68.1% hatch inhibition, respectively.Furthermore, the relative mortality of J2 was 96.2% after treatment with 2.0 mg/mL GuRE for 48 h.Changes in the shape of the eggs and juveniles were determined after incubation with 2.0 mg/mL GuRE for 5 d and 48 h, respectively.These preliminary results suggest that GuRE can be used as an environment-friendly bio-nematicide to control root-knot nematodes.In the future, in vivo assays should be conducted using GuRE to ascertain its potential for widespread application as a nematicide.
