The invention discloses application of
maltol in prevention and treatment of
plant parasitic nematodes, and relates to the field of biological prevention and treatment of
crop diseases, in particular to application of
maltol in prevention and treatment of
plant parasitic nematodes. The invention aims to solve the technical problem of environmental
pollution easily caused by existing
chemical agent prevention and treatment. The invention discloses application of
maltol in preventing and treating
plant parasitic nematodes. The maltol is used for preventing and treating the plant parasitic nematodes. The maltol is 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-
pyrone, and the maltol is 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-
pyrone. When the concentration of the 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-
pyrone is 1.6 g / L, the 24-hour corrected death rate of second-
instar larvae of the
meloidogyne incognita reaches 90.39%, the LC50 value is 0.46 g / L, the 72-hour corrected death rate reaches 99.61%, and the LC50 value is reduced to 0.023 g / L when the concentration of the 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone is 96 h. When the concentration is 1.6 g / L, the 24-hour corrected death rate of second-
instar larvae of the
soybean cyst nematode reaches 79.54%, the LC50 value is 0.998 g / L, the 72-hour corrected death rate reaches 91.69%, and the LC50 value is reduced to 0.026 g / L when the concentration is 96 h.
