Abstract
Meloidogyne enterolobii is an emerging global threat and is damaging to sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) production in the southeast United States. Nematicide application is one of the few management strategies currently available against this nematode, and field testing is urgently needed. The objective of this study was to assess common nematicides for management of M. enterolobii and nontarget effects on free-living nematodes in sweetpotato field production. Treatments were (i) untreated control, (ii) fumigation using 1,3-dichloropropene, or at-transplant drench of fluorinated nematicides (iii) fluazaindolizine, (iv) fluopyram, or (v, vi) fluensulfone at 2 or 4 kg a.i./ha. In 2022, a field trial was conducted under severe M. enterolobii pressure and was repeated in 2023 in the same location without treatment rerandomization. Fumigation using 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) was the only consistently effective nematicide at improving marketable yield relative to control and also consistently reduced most storage root galling measurements and midseason Meloidogyne soil abundances. Fluensulfone at 4 kg a.i./ha consistently improved total yield but not marketable yield, whereas fluensulfone at 2 kg a.i./ha, fluazaindolizine, and fluopyram did not improve yield. Each fluorinated nematicide treatment reduced at least one nematode symptom or nematode soil abundances relative to control, but none provided consistent benefits across years. Even with 1,3-D fumigation, yield was poor, and none of the nematicide treatments provided a significant return on investment relative to forgoing nematicide application. There were minimal effects on free-living nematodes. In summary, 1,3-D is an effective nematicide for M. enterolobii management, but additional management will be needed under severe M. enterolobii pressure.

Simultaneous determination of the nematicide fluensulfone and its two major metabolites in soils by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. J Chromatogr A 2023; 1702:464096. [PMID: 37245354 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2023.464096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 05/30/2023]
Abstract
A fast and sensitive method for simultaneously detecting nonfumigant nematicide fluensulfone (FSF) and its two major metabolites [3,4,4-trifluorobut-3-ene-1-sulfonic acid (BSA) and 5‑chloro-1,3-thiazole-2-sulfonic acid (TSA)] in different types of agricultural soils (black soil, krasnozem, sierozem) was established and validated through ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The samples were prepared by a modified quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe method. The soil samples were firstly extracted with acetonitrile/water (4/1) and then purified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Parameters influencing purification efficiency and recoveries, such as the type and the amount of sorbent were evaluated and compared. The overall average recoveries of three target analytes in soils were in the range of 73.1%-113.9% and the relative standard deviations (including intra-day and inter-day precision) were less than 12.7%. The limit of quantification was 5 μg/kg for all three compounds. The established method was successfully applied to examine the degradation of FSF and the formation of its two major metabolites in three different types of soil, indicating its efficacy in investigating the environmental behavior of FSF in agricultural soil system.

Abstract
The phaseout of methyl bromide and the ban on, or withdrawal of, other toxic soil fumigants and non-fumigant nematicides belonging to the organophosphate and carbamate groups are leading to changes in nematode-control strategies. Sustainable nematode-control methods are available and preferred, but not always effective enough, especially for cash crops in intensive agriculture. A few non-fumigant nematicides, which have a relatively high control efficacy with a low toxicity to non-target organisms, have been released to the market or are in the process of being registered for use. Fluensulfone, fluopyram, and fluazaindolizine are the three main and most promising next-generation nematicides. In this paper, several aspects of these non-fumigant nematicides are reviewed, along with a brief history and problems of old-generation nematicides.
