Mosquito larvicidal activity of Solanum nigrum berry extracts
Phytochemicals are widely used as biocontrol agent against vector mosquitoes. The present study was undertaken to isolate and evaluate the mosquitocidal activity of various extracts of berries of S. nigrum against Culex quinquefasciatus. Crude and chloroform: methanol (1:1, v/v) extracts of fresh, mature, green berries of S. nigrum were tested against Cx. quinquefasciatus. The lethal concentrat...
متن کاملLarvicidal Potential and Mosquito Repellent Activity of Cassia Mimosoides Extracts.
This study aims to investigate larvicidal activities of extracts of Cassia mimosoides leaves and pods as a potential agent in vector control of malaria and to evaluate repellent effect against Anopheles gambiae mosquito of the extract formulated in an aqueous cream base. Petroleum spirit, ethanol, water and dichloromethane extracts were tested against third and fourth instar Anopheles gambiae l...
متن کاملTriadimefon, a fungicidal triazole-type P450 inhibitor, induces brassinosteroid deficiency-like phenotypes in plants and binds to DWF4 protein in the brassinosteroid biosynthesis pathway.
Triadimefon (Bayleton), a widely used triazole-type fungicide, affects gibberellin (GA) biosynthesis and 14 alpha-demethylase in sterol biosynthesis. The present study revealed that the phenotype of Arabidopsis treated with triadimefon resembled that of a brassinosteroid (BR)-biosynthesis mutant, and that the phenotype was rescued by brassinolide (BL), the most active BR, partly rescued by GA, ...
متن کاملFenarimol, a Pyrimidine-Type Fungicide, Inhibits Brassinosteroid Biosynthesis
The plant steroid hormone brassinosteroids (BRs) are important signal mediators that regulate broad aspects of plant growth and development. With the discovery of brassinoazole (Brz), the first specific inhibitor of BR biosynthesis, several triazole-type BR biosynthesis inhibitors have been developed. In this article, we report that fenarimol (FM), a pyrimidine-type fungicide, exhibits potent i...
متن کاملevaluation of larvicidal activity of essential oil from leaves of coccinia grandis against three mosquito species
background: to study the chemical constituents and larvicidal activity of essential oil extracted from the leaves of coccinia grandis against three mosquito species. methods: essential oil was extracted by hydro distillation using clevenger apparatus and was analyzed for chemical constituents by gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry (gc-ms). larvicidal activity was recorded after 12 and 24h...
