Patent number: 6124359Abstract: Methods and compositions for the control of nematodes are disclosed. Specifically, fatty acid ester compounds have been found to advantageously control nematodes at concentrations which are non-phytoxic. The fatty acid ester compounds can be used in conjunction with other nematicidal agents such as free fatty acids, fatty acid salts, avermectins, ivermectin, and milbemycin. In another embodiment, the subject invention further provides methods for killing the eggs of nematodes. Thus, the subject invention further relates to the surprising discovery that certain fatty acid esters have ovicidal activity against nematode eggs.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 1997Date of Patent: September 26, 2000Assignee: Mycogen CorporationInventors: Jerald S.
