Plant-parasitic nematodes cause substantial crop losses annually; however, current nematicides are environmentally unfriendly and highly toxic to nontarget organisms. The development of green efficient nematicides from multifunctional natural bioactive substances such as chitin oligosaccharide (COS) is promising. In this paper, COS dithiocarbamate derivatives (COSDTC, COSDTA, COSDTB) were synthesized to increase nematicidal activity (against Meloidogyne incognita), and their structures were characterized by FTIR, NMR, TGA/DTG and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the nematicidal activities, egg hatching inhibitory activities, plant growth adjustment abilities, cytotoxicity and phytotoxicity of the derivatives were evaluated. The primary mechanism was assessed by heavy metal ion absorption and GSH-binding assays. The results showed COS dithiocarbamate derivatives could possess multiple efficacies, including high nematicidal activities and egg hatching inhibitory activities, plant growth regulating effects, low cell toxicities and phytotoxicities. Additionally, it was inferred that nematicidal activity may be correlated with GSH-binding activity but not heavy metal ion complexation. COS modification has immense potential for controlling plant-parasitic nematodes.
