- Nematicidal and larvicidal activities of the essential oils from aerial parts of Pectis oligocephala and Pectis apodocephala Baker Paulo N. Bandeira Edilberto R. Silveira Otilia Deusdênia Loiola Pessoa Manoel Andrade Maria Rose Jane R. Albuquerque Sonia Maria O. Costa Gilvandete Maria P. Santiago Multidisciplinaria (Ciencias Naturales y Exactas) essential oil Pectis apodocephala Pectis oligocephala larvicidal activity nematicidal activity The chemical composition of the essential oils from aerial parts of Pectis apodocephala and Pectis oligocephala wereanalyzed by GC-MS. The essential oils of these species were predominantly constituted by monoterpenes. Geranial(42.9 44.5%), neral (32.2 34.2%) and α-pinene (10.7 11.4%) were the main constituents in the oil of P. apodocephala,while p-cymene (50.3 70.9%) and thymol (24.4 44.7%), were the prevalent compounds in the oil of P. oligocephala.The essential oils were tested against the root knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita and Aedes aegypti larvae survival.The results obtained show that both essential oils exhibited significant activity and could be considered as potent naturalnamaticidal and larvicidal agents 2007 artículo científico 0001-3765 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=32779203 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=327 Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Ciências Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.79
