Bioactivity of Novel Botanical Insecticide From Gnidia kaussiana (Thymeleaceae) Against Callosobruchus maculatus (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) in Stored Vigna subterranea (Fabaceae) Grains
Hexane, acetone, and methanol extracts from Gnidia kaussiana Meisn (Thymeleaceae), each at two dosages (0.2 and 1 ml/50 g grains corresponding, respectively to 1 and 5g/kg), and neem seed oil (NSO), used as standard insecticide were evaluated for repellence, toxicity to Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) adults, F1 progeny inhibition, persistence and as grain protectant d...
متن کاملQuality Changes in Hermetically Stored Corn Caused by Fungi and Sitophilus Zeamais
Addae-Mensah, Nda-Agyima K.. M.S.A.B.E., Purdue University, May 2014. Quality Changes in Hermetic Stored Corn caused by Fungi and Sitophilus zeamais (Motschulsky). Major Professors: Klein Ileleji and Linda Mason. Hermetic storage has been shown to be effective in controlling insect pests and maintaining grain quality of dry grains at 13% moisture and below. However, the feasibility and use of h...
متن کاملEssential oil optimizes the susceptibility of Callosobruchus maculatus and enhances the nutritional qualities of stored cowpea Vigna unguiculata
The intensive use of synthetic pesticides in cowpea storage has led to the development of resistance by Callosobruchus maculatus and subsequent degradation of grain quality. In an attempt to circumvent these constraints, the susceptibility of C. maculatus to 2,2-dichlorovinyldimethyl phosphate (DDVP) and Lippia adoensis essential oil (EO) was investigated and variations in the proportions of nu...
متن کاملMortality effect of BT extracts and esterase variability in three stored grain insects: Callosobruchus chinensis, Sitophilus granarius and Tribolium castaneum
Bioassay was conducted to determine the susceptibility level of the adults of Callosobruchus chinensis, Sitophilus granarius and Tribolium casteneum against four BT isolates (1i, 27s, 27f and HD73) where mortality effects were counted from 24 to 192 hours (8 days) at 24 hours of intervals. All strains of BT were highly active against C. chinensis and the LC50 were found to be 0.30, 0.73, 0.62 a...
متن کاملInsecticidal Activity of Melaleuca alternifolia Essential Oil and RNA-Seq Analysis of Sitophilus zeamais Transcriptome in Response to Oil Fumigation
BACKGROUND The cereal weevil, Sitophilus zeamais is one of the most destructive pests of stored cereals worldwide. Frequent use of fumigants for managing stored-product insects has led to the development of resistance in insects. Essential oils from aromatic plants including the tea oil plant, Melaleuca alternifolia may provide environmentally friendly alternatives to currently used pest contro...
