In Vitro Evaluation of Nematicidal and Insecticidal Properties of Urginea Maritima Aqueous Extract
Abstract
This study evaluates the nematicidal and insecticidal potential of aqueous extracts from the leaves and bulbs of Urginea maritima against the root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp.) and the grain weevil (Tribolium castaneum). Both plant parts exhibited significant bioactivity, with leaves demonstrating higher efficacy. At the highest tested doses, the leaf extract achieved a lethal dose 50 (LD50) of 0.788 mg/mL for nematodes and 10.320 mg/mL for insects. Similarly, it reduced lethal time 50 (LT50) to 39.06 hours and 1.0899 days, respectively. These results suggest that the secondary metabolites in Urginea maritima extracts could serve as effective agents for biological pest control, offering a sustainable alternative to chemical pesticides.
