The present invention falls into the context of green chemistry and relates generically to compositions used for controlling agricultural pests and, in a particular embodiment, to compositions usable in combating nematodes.
Within the concept of sustainability, environmental chemistry and/or green chemistry has advanced toward introducing processes and products for replacement of polluting technologies. The use of raw-materials of vegetable origin and/or substances identical to those found in nature and the incorporation thereof into ecologically correct processes/products has proved to be a worldwide tendency, chiefly in countries that have great availability of biomass.
In Brazil, gall-nematodes (Meloidogyne javanica nematodes) figure among the most harmful pests in intensive agricultural areas for important crops, such as coffee beans, sugar-cane, soybeans, beans, tobacco, fruit trees and olericultural plants. The damages caused by these phytopathogens include formation of galls that cause unbalance in the absorption of water and nutrients from the soil, making the plants much more sensitive to any environmental modification or to the attack by pests and pathogens. Nematodes of the genus Meloydogyne spp are sedentary endoparasites compulsory on various plants. The hosts comprise over 3,000 vegetable species. Annual losses related to the action of these organisms approach US$150 billion, of which 90% are associated to the Meloigogyne incognica, M. Javanica, M. arenaria and M. hapla nematodes (Abad, et al, 2008; Bakhetia et al, 2005). In this context, M incognita nematode stands out as the most expressive species as to economic losses (Huang et al, 2006).
The strategies used for controlling this phytoparasite consists of: rotation of crops, use of resistant varieties, integrated handling of pests and chiefly application of synthetic agricultural defensives (Chitwood, 2002). The use of antagonist plants in rotation-of-crops schemes is one alternative, but with reduction in the productivity and in the profits of the farmer (Dufour et al, 2003; Ferraz & Freitas, 2000). The use of resistant varieties is a recommendable way of controlling pests and diseases, but the number of resistant cultivars is limited, as well as the genetic diversity related to this resistance (Dofour et all, 2003); Ferraz & Freitas, 2000). The integrated handling of pests is a desired strategy, but it needs strict planning, intensive management of the crop, higher expenditure of time and may have costs higher than the use of agricultural defensives (Gentz, 2010). The most widely used control strategy lies in the massive use of synthetic nematicides, which result in impairing the natural environment and public health (Abad et al, 2008). In this regard, the employ natural nematotoxic vegetable compounds (Newman et al, 2003) is a strategy for controlling this phytonemadode.
Significant advances in the metabolomics area of plants, and the integration thereof with genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and bioinformatics have provided new possibilities for exploiting and extending complex interactions ion biological systems ((Weckwerth, 2009; Shulaev, 2008; Weckwerth, 2008; Huang, et al., 2008; Roessner et al., 2006; Roessner et al., 2001). Studies on the action of extracts obtained from seeds of antagonistic plants demonstrated quite effective nematicidal and nematostatic effects. These effects have been related to the presence of secondary metabolites, such as alkaloids, terpenes, tannins, flavonoids and glycosides (Chitood, 2002; Ferraz & Freitas, 2000).
Thus, it is of extreme importance to look for innovative natural chemical substances that have wide structural and biological diversity (Newman et al, 2003; Kirkpatrick, 2002), with a view to obtain new effective and environmental safe nematotoxic products. In this case, the plants are sources of over 100,000 natural products of small molecular mass, known as vegetable compounds or metabolites (Clardy, 2004; Dixon, 2001). In vegetables, these compounds may be associated to cellular differentiation, regulation of growth, measurement of interactions between plants and other organisms, and chiefly protection of the plant (Dobson, 2004).
Within this context, the present invention presents a feasible alternative to the use of namatotoxic compounds that are harmful to the environment and that may damage human health. This alternative is embodied through a nematotoxic composition for controlling nematodes that that can be used on plants, parts of plants and in the soil. The respective technology comes from unexpected results achieved from experiments carried out with extracts of Canavalia ensiformis plant, resulting in an unheard of nematotoxic composition comprising a specific combination of substances that are naturally found in the extract.
The present invention presents a composition comprising a specific combination of substances found naturally and that act synergistically on the control of nematodes on plants.
The synergistic nematotoxic composition of the present invention comprises, as active compounds:
Among the forms of presentation of the present composition are solutions, emulsions, wettable powders, suspensions, powders, dusts, pastes, soluble powders, granules, suspension-emulsion concentrated, natural and synthetic materials impregnated with active compounds and mciroencapsulations in polymeric substances. Additionally, the composition of the invention may further comprise formulation ingredients, including, among others, liquid carriers/liquid solvents and/or solid carriers and/or surfactants and/or stickiness agents and/or dyes.

In a special embodiment of the present invention, the use of the nematotoxic composition of synergistic effect described in this document is for controlling Meloigonyne incognita.
Initially, aqueous extracts obtained from seeds of antagonistic plants were tested in bioassays with a view to detect compounds effective against second-stage juveniles (J2) of M. incognita.
Among the extracts tested, Canavalia ensiformis, a plant of the family Leguminosae, originating in Central America, exhibited the highest nematicidal activity (85%) (
Additionally, the viewing by optical microscopy of the effect caused by the compound (s) present in the De of C. ensiformis on J2 of M. incognita disclosed the break of the normal anatomy (FIGS. 7—A, B, C and D) with formation of various vacuoles along the stiff body of the nematode. The alterations suggest the destructuring of tissues of the intestines of the phytoparasite.
The purification of the DE via HPLC using reverse column phase (C18 enabled the separation of three nematicidal fractions and two nematostatic ones. All the steps were monitored by bioeassays for evaluation of the nematotoxic activity (
In this context, compounds produced commercially with biological functions identified after research in the literature and present in the nematotoxic fractions of C. ensiformis were tested in bioassay against M. incognita juveniles (
With a view to obtain a nematotoxic composition from the compounds with nematotoxic activity, detected in the prior experiments, the compounds glucose (5), trans-aconitic acid (4) and S-carboxymethylcisteine (3) and palmitic acid (2) were tested by carrying out in vitro experiments in different combinations. Although of xantotoxine demonstrates nematicidal action, it was not selected for aid tests due to the high cost and the difficulty of its chemical synthesis.
The compositions containing combinations of active compounds were tested by carrying out in vitro bioassays against M. incognita juveniles. The active compounds used in the experiments carried out were obtained commercially.
