AGRO 82 |
| Root knot nematodes (RKN) are ubiquitous and harmful pests of global agriculture. A safe and effective nematicide is desired to replace bromomethane, which is phasing out because it is an ozone depleting substance. We have discovered novel 2-aryl-5-thienyloxadiazoles as part of an insecticide/nematicide program. This poster will show our scouting efforts around 2-aryl-5-thienyl-heteropentalenes, discovering and optimizing 2-aryl-5-thienyloxadiazoles with good nematicidal activity. |
