Sitophilus zeamais is one of the most economically impactful pests, attacking various grains and processed foods. Control this insect has been achieved using synthetic insecticides, exacerbated careless use which led to development resistant populations, toxicity non-target organisms environmental contamination. In study, Piper corcovadensis leaf essential oil (PcLEO) its major compound, 1-butyl-3,4-methylenedioxybenzene (BMDB), were investigated as alternative insecticidal agents against S....
Aedes aegypti can transmit dengue, chikungunya, zika and yellow fever. Its control represents the main strategy for reducing spreading of these diseases. In present work, Plectranthus barbatus leaf saline extract (SE), decoction infusion were studied their effects on survival A. third instar larvae (L3), as well presence secondary metabolites, lectins, trypsin inhibitors. The SE (non-heated or heated) digestive proteases, permeability peritrophic membrane, morphophysiology, microbiota growth...
