Abstract Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) is one of the most destructive pests stored products. Although there have been studies on potential use essential oils from plants in Artemisia genus as insecticides, no comprehensive bioactivity data are available efficacy vulgaris L. (Asterales: Asteraceae) oil and its chemical constituents stored-product pests. Therefore, this...

essential oils are volatile mixtures of hydrocarbons with diverse functional groups. in the current study the effect of essential oils from five medicinal plants including zataria multiflora and nepeta cataria (lamiaceae), tagetes minuta and artemisia sieberi (asteraceae), and trachyspermum ammi (apiaceae) were analyzed using gc-mass spectrometry. the toxicity of these plant essential oils agai...

High emissions from soil fumigants increase the risk of detrimental impact on workers, bystanders, and the environment, and jeopardize future availability of fumigants. Efficient and cost-effective approaches to minimize emissions are needed. This study evaluated the potential of surface water application (or water seal) to reduce 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) emissions from soil (Hanford sandy l...

With the increasing importance of soilborne plant pest nematodes and relatively recent phase-out methyl bromide as a key soil fumigant, there is an urgent need for new fumigants with good nematicidal properties. Ethanedinitrile (EDN) promising fumigant preparation because its physical, agrochemical, However, efficacy against nematode pests different crops under field conditions has not been ful...

Abstract Fumigant activity of the essential oil extracted from Tridax procumbens L. (Asterales: Asteraceae) by water distillation was assessed against Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), together with its effect on germination three Thai varieties rice, Oryza sativa (Poales: Poaceae). contains 25 compounds five principal components as 1,2-cyclooctanediol (11.49%), hexana...

Alternative storage pest control that is more environmentally friendly than the use of synthetic chemical pesticides to botanical from plant essential oils, including clove (Syzygium aromaticum) which contains main compounds eugenol and trans-caryophyllene. To study various mechanisms action oils as insecticides could in silico approach through molecular docking. This aims predict dominant bind...
