ABSTRACT. - Phyto-extracts of Artemisia species (Asteraceae) are
employed as natural biocides (anti-insects, anti-helminthes, and
anti-biotics) from many centuries. The main aim of this review is to
summarized the toxic effects of chemical extracts from Artemisia on
Nematoda worms. Toxic effects were reported for the following Nematoda
genera of bio-medical interest: Ascaris (A. galli A. leonina, A.
lumbricoides, A. suum), Bunostomum (B. trigonocephalum), Caenorhabditis
(C. elegans), Chabertia (C. ovina), Dictyocaulus (D. filaria),
Dirofilaria (D. immitis), Enterobius (E. vermicularis), Haemonchus (H.
contortus), Heligmosomoides (H. polygyrus), Necator (N. americanus),
Nematodirus, Oesophagostomum (O. columbianus), Protostrongylus,
Strongyloides, Trichinella (T. spiralis), Trichostrongylus (T.
colubriformis); Trichuris (T. ovis); on Gnathostoma spinigerum not toxic
effects are showed. Similarly effects were reported for the following
Nematoda genera of agro-ecological interest: Ditylenchus (D. dipsaci),
Helicotylenchus (H. dihystera), Meloidogyne (M. incognita, M. javanica,
M. megadora), Pratylenchus (P. vulnus), Rotylenchulus (R. reniformis).
