EFFECT OF AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS OF RUTIN ON THE BEET CYST NEMATODE HETERODERA SCHACHTII

Resumen

Three in vitro experiments were undertaken to test the nematicidal activity of rutin on the beet cyst nematode Heterodera schachtii. Cysts were immersed in aqueous solutions of rutin at different concentrations (0.02, 0.04, 0.08 and 0.16 Mm) during the first four weeks of the hatching test, throughout the hatching test, or immersed in the above solutions for 24, 48, 96, 192, 384, 768 and 1536 hours and then subjected to hatching test. Results did not indicated any nematicidal of nematostatic activity.
