Abstract
In the random screening of nematicidal compounds against the pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, using the immersion test, a series of N-alkyl- and N, N-dialkyl oleylamines, dialkylamines, and their related compounds were tested. Among these tested, didecylamine was identified as the most potentially-active nematicidal compound (LC50; 4.19/JM, 1.24 ppm). Amongst a total of 23 alkylamines, six N- and N, N- dialkyl oleylamines, including oleylamine, and three dialkylamines showed a higher activity than octadecylamine (LC50; 8.61 , µ2.08 ppm) on a concentration basis. A total of 9 compounds tested indicated higher activity than octadecylamine on a molar basis.
