nematodes are highly damaging pests responsible for heavy losses in a considerable number of plant crops. Common pest management strategies rely on the use of synthetic chemical nematicides, which have led to serious concerns regarding their impact on human health and the environment. The essential oils (EOs) obtained from aromatic plant species can provide a good source of agents for the sustainable control of nematodes, due to higher biodegradability, generally low toxicity for mammals, fish, and birds, and lower bioaccumulation in the environment. This study aimed to evaluate the nematicidal and nematostatic properties of EOs extracted from plant species relevant to Macaronesia flora or with widespread use as culinary herbs in Mediterranean cuisine. Eighteen EOs were chemically characterized and evaluated by direct contact and hatching bioassays on the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica. The EOs that showed a significant effect on M. javanica second-stage juveniles\u2019 (J2) mortality (\u226540%) were also used in chemotaxis assays. From the eighteen EOs, seven showed strong nematicidal activity (&gt;80%) and hatching inhibition. The chemotaxis assays revealed that only Mentha pulegium exhibited repellent behavior for M. javanica J2, and the rest of EOs had attractive behavior. Furthermore, EOs were assessed against the root-lesion nematode Pratylenchus penetrans and the pinewood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. Cinnamomum burmanni was the EO with the highest nematicidal activity for the three nematode species. Among the terpene-rich EOs, high mortality values and hatching inhibition for M. javanica were observed for the carvacrol chemotype Origanum vulgare, albeit with low activity for P. penetrans and B. xylophilus. Mentha pulegium, mainly composed of monoterpene ketones and monoterpenoids, demonstrated moderate-to-high mortality activity (from 30% for P. penetrans to 99% for M. javanica) for the three nematode species.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/plants14030337","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,23]],"date-time":"2025-01-23T09:01:13Z","timestamp":1737622873000},"page":"337","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Chemical Screening and Nematicidal Activity of Essential Oils from Macaronesian and Mediterranean Plants for Controlling Plant-Parasitic Nematodes"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1467-4332","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rui","family":"Ferreira","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"CQM\u2014Madeira Chemistry Research Centre, University of Madeira, Campus da Penteada, 9020-105 Funchal, Portugal"},{"name":"Faculty of Exact Sciences and Engineering, University of Madeira, Campus da Penteada, 9020-105 Funchal, Portugal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1616-3632","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carla","family":"Maleita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CERES\u2014Chemical Engineering and Renewable Resources for Sustainability, Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Coimbra, Rua S\u00edlvio Lima, 3030-790 Coimbra, Portugal"},{"name":"CFE-Centre for Functional Ecology\u2014Science for People & the Planet, Associate Laboratory TERRA, Department of Life Sciences, University of Coimbra, Cal\u00e7ada Martim de Freitas, 3000-456 Coimbra, Portugal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7405-8916","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lu\u00eds","family":"Fonseca","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CFE-Centre for Functional Ecology\u2014Science for People & the Planet, Associate Laboratory TERRA, Department of Life Sciences, University of Coimbra, Cal\u00e7ada Martim de Freitas, 3000-456 Coimbra, Portugal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4944-6789","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Iv\u00e2nia","family":"Esteves","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CFE-Centre for Functional Ecology\u2014Science for People & the Planet, Associate Laboratory TERRA, Department of Life Sciences, University of Coimbra, Cal\u00e7ada Martim de Freitas, 3000-456 Coimbra, Portugal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5526-3594","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ivo","family":"Sousa-Ferreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Exact Sciences and Engineering, University of Madeira, Campus da Penteada, 9020-105 Funchal, Portugal"},{"name":"CEAUL\u2014Centre of Statistics and Its Applications, Faculty of Sciences, University of Lisbon, 1749-016 Lisboa, Portugal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9512-7754","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Raimundo","family":"Cabrera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Phytopathology Unit, Biology Section, Faculty of Sciences, University of La Laguna, Avda.
