ABSTRACT In previous papers the toxicity of monoterpenoids linalool and carvone phenylpropanoids trans ‐anethole estragole, as well capacity to induce resistance Sitophilus oryzae Cryptolestes pusillus trough acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition from either susceptible or tolerant (up tenth generation) insect populations, was tested at different concentrations substrate. this study, activity AChE inhibited by lower (from 0.02 10 mM) measured Ellman's method same concentration substrate (1...
The essential oil of Chrysanthemum coronarium flowerheads showed strong nematicidal activity in vitro and growth‐chamber experiments. Essential concentrations 2, 4, 8 16 µ L mL −1 , significantly reduced hatch, J 2 survival (determined by final value area under curves cumulative percentage hatch or mortality) reproduction rate Meloidogyne artiellia with the lowest values occurring at . In pot trials chickpea cv. PV 61, 10–40 per 500 cm 3 soil, applied on sterile cotton pellets, also...
Myzus persicae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is considered one of most important agricultural pests in the world. It main protected pepper crops under glasshouse conditions Southeastern Spain, but its control limited as a consequence few available authorized insecticides and their incompatibility with natural enemies. Some essential oils pure compounds such anise (Pimpinella anisum) or farnesol are repellent and/or toxic to aphids. Their use botanical can be an alternative for aphid pepper.The...
(E)-anethole is a phenylpropanoid that the main compound found in essential oils (EOs) of anise and fennel seeds, either fumigant or direct contact activity this has been demonstrated against aphids stored product pests. In work, solid microspheres were prepared by three methods—oil emulsion entrapment, spray-drying, complexed with β-cyclodextrin. Fumigation each microsphere preparation was tested green peach aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer (Hemiptera: Aphididae), on pepper leaves. The best...
Worms are becoming difficult pests to control since many insecticides now forbidden and the present alternatives insufficiently effective. Antifeedants of plant origin may have potential against such pests. In this work, several diterpenoids, flavones coumarins extracted from plants were assayed as antifeedant agents Spodoptera littoralis larvae. Among these compounds, four diterpenes (eriocephalin, salviacoccin, aethiopinone oxocandesalvone) (oxypeucedanin, xanthotoxin, isoimperatorin...
