ABSTRACT: In the present study, the fungicidal and nematicidal activities of the hexanic and methanolic extracts of
Syzygium aromaticum were evaluated. At a concentration of 100 ?g/ml, the hexanic extract inhibited 43.70% of the
mycelial growth of Fusarium sp. at 48 h and 52.90% at 72 h; while at the concentration of 200 ?g/ml, it inhibited
54.30% and 60% of the mycelial growth of Fusarium sp. at 48 h and at 72 h, respectively. The methanolic extract
inhibited 99.87% of the hatching of Haemonchus contortus (H. contortus) eggs at a concentration of 1.25 mg/ml, with
respect to the mortality of J2 larvae of it was 71.11% at the concentration of 1.25 mg/ml. Gas Chromatography coupled
to mass spectrometry analysis allowed the identification of 17 compounds in total, of which eugenol, acetyl eugenol
and caryophyllene were the most abundant in both hexanic and methanolic extracts. Additionally, hexatriacontane,
octacosane, 11, 11-Dimethyl-4,8-dimethylenebicyclo [7.2.0] undecan-3-ol, ledene oxide- (II), and humulene were only
present in the methanolic extract, while isoaromadendrene epoxide, 2-naphthalenemethanol, decahydro-?, ?, 4atrimethyl-8-methyle, loxapine N-oxide, diepicedrene-1-oxide, aristolochic acid II, and trans-isoeugenol were only found
in the hexanic extract.
