The soybeans in Brazil stands out as a major grain grown throughout the country both in the economic and social point of view, as nutritional. However, there are several limiting factors for its production, such as diseases caused by nematodes, primarily the species of the genus Meloidogyne sp. that prevent the production in infested areas. In order to find new alternatives for protection and control of this disease, this study aimed to determine the nematicide activity of Melaleuca alternifolia oil in its pure form and associated with the solid lipid nanocarriers. Appropriate methodologies were employed in 24 well microtiter plates for determination of nematicidal activity in vitro and in vivo. It was found that both the pure essential oil as its form nanostructured showed nematicidal potential in vitro, however, at different times of action. The nematicide action of nanoparticles has also been observed in vivo at different times. All concentrations showed activity and results similar action with the Abamectin, the conventional treatment. In this sense, this paper presents for the first time the action nanoparticles containing M. alternifolia in the treatment / prevention of infections Melodogyne sp ..
