The repelling of insect pests and attracting beneficial insects using non-host plants is an important component ‘push-pull’ strategy. Plants with insecticidal properties are locally abundant can be utilized to management pests. For this study, Lemon grass (Cymbopogon citratus L.) Marigold plant (Tagetes erecta were intercropped cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata as border reduce the popul...

Insects are the main pest in agricultural systems, causing significant losses crop productivity and storage. During last decades control of insects has been carried out through uncontrolled massive use chemical insecticides, very harmful to environment health, which requires development new efficient safe alternatives. Numerous fungal species have described as entomopathogens insect pests, well...

Studies on the production of plant-based pest control strategies have been growing in recent years. Origanum (Lamiaceae) species are important medicinal aromatic plants and many studies conducted their biological activities. This study was to determine repellent effects plant essential oils extracted from four different species: O. onites, vulgare var. hirtum, verticium onites × vulgare, agains...

Hydrogenated cardanol derivatives were evaluated as potentially active insecticides/repellent agents against insect pests such Liriomyza sativae (Diptera: Agromyzidae) and Bemisia tabaci biotype B (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). Benzoylation, acetylation, methylation made on the hydrogenated aromatic ring to synthesize ingredients with potential insecticide action. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectra ...
