Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation The trap crop had 230 metabolites at least threefold higher abundance than two susceptible potato varieties.
- Observation Several metabolites had nematicidal activity against Meloidogyne chitwoodi in vitro at root concentrations.
- Observation Several metabolites had nematicidal activity against M. hapla in vitro at root concentrations.
- Observation Furoic acid was among the most effective tested chemicals against nematodes.
- Observation Aconitic acid was among the most effective tested chemicals against nematodes.
- Observation Quinic acid was among the most effective tested chemicals against nematodes.
- Association The three acids were most effective at or below their pKa.
- Mechanism Chemical effects were partly attributable to structure rather than just acidification.
- Mechanism The chemicals acted additively, suggesting resistance can arise from a metabolite combination.
