TL;DR: In this article, a single foliar spray of peppers with a fluensulfone solution at 3.0 g L−1 prior to inoculation reduced the galling index by 80% and the number of nematode eggs by 73-82% of controls.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Fluensulfone, a new nematicide of the fluoroalkenyl group, has proved to be very effective in controlling root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne spp., by soil application. The systemic activity of this compound against M. incognita on peppers via soil drenching and foliar spray was evaluated.
RESULTS: Root application of fluensulfone via soil drenching showed slight and no nematode control activity when applied 4 and 10 days, respectively, after inoculation. A single foliar spray of peppers with a fluensulfone solution at 3.0 g L−1 prior to inoculation reduced the galling index by 80% and the number of nematode eggs by 73–82% of controls. The reduction in these parameters by fluensulfone was much higher than that obtained with oxamyl or fenamiphos at the same concentration. This activity was also observed when the plants were sprayed 21 days before inoculation. A series of experiments suggested that foliar spray with fluensulfone prior to inoculation reduces nematode invasion. However, foliar spray after inoculation did not inhibit nematode development inside roots.
CONCLUSION: Fluensulfone showed relatively high nematode control activity when sprayed on the foliage before inoculation. Fluensulfone may be used as a foliar application, in addition to soil application, for root-knot nematode control. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry

The separation of epistatic from additive and dominance variation in generation means
TL;DR: In this paper, the difficulty of specifying additive and dominance variation in the presence of epistasis is described, and the difficulty can be overcome when the epistasis was at a relatively low level of intensity.
A simple theory regarding ambimobility of xenobiotics with special reference to the nematicide, oxamyl.
TL;DR: It is argued that the nematicide, oxamyl, is near the optimum permeability under some experimental conditions and depending on the permeability of the xenobiotic, there can be passive accumulation of xenobiotics in the sieve tubes in the carbohydrate sink regions.
