Discovery of hatching stimulants for Globodera pallida with simple chemical structures and their application for nematode density reduction in soil
ふ化促進物質は、寄主植物の存在を知らせる合図としてセンチュウに認識されます。合成ふ化促進物質を用いることで、この合図を逆手に取り、センチュウを“騙して”ふ化させ、寄主植物が存在しない環境下で餓死に導くことができます。

Abstract
Potato cyst nematodes (PCN), Globodera pallida and G. rostochiensis, are among the most destructive pests affecting potatoes. Hatching stimulants that induce “suicide hatching” in the absence of host plants offer a promising strategy for PCN management. However, previously identified natural hatching stimulants have complex structures, making them difficult to synthesize. Therefore, we….
