“…On the other hand, Horowitz and Ishaaya [14] stated that bio-rational insecticides are good alternatives or supplemental forms of pest control and they are to be used in the IPM programs. quickly, have minimal residues, safe to applier and relatively small amounts are needed for successful control [22] [23]. In the current investigation, within the bio-rational pesticides, nimbecidine gave the highest control percentage in case of thrips, while in case of whitefly both bio-power (B. bassiana) and the anti-insect caused the highest control levels followed by nimbecidine.…”

Destructive effects of conventional insecticides on environment have created a necessity to introduce bio-rational products in pest control programs. Effectiveness of bio-pesticide (Beauvaria bassiana), natural oil (anti-insect), a botanical extract (nimbecidine) and malathion insecticide was evaluated against Thrips spp. and Bemisia tabaci attacking tomato in Kafr El Sheik, Egypt. The trial was conducted during two successive seasons; 2017-18 in a total area of 4912 m 2 cultivated with tomato cultivar zero 42. The experiment was set up in a randomized complete block design with five replications for each treatment. Yellow sticky traps were used to monitor population of both pests before and after spraying, in addition, their numbers on plants were counted. Results revealed that highest control rates of both pests were recorded after the fourth day of each spraying. Long inter-applications periods decreased effectiveness and the greatest control resulted when three consecutive sprayings were applied. Malathion achieved the highest suppression of both pests. Within the bio-rational pesticides, nimbecidine gave the greatest thrips control whereas products showed no significant difference for whiteflies. The study recommends those bio-rational compounds to join Integrated Pest Management programs of both pests in Egypt, taking into consideration spraying for 3 consecutive times with at least 5 days intervals.

“…A distinctive peculiarity of fungi, in contrast to other pathogens is entrance into the host's organism through the cuticle, not food. On contact of an insect with spores in the soil, air and on different surfaces, in the conditions of sufficient moisture, the spores germinate, forming hyphae, through the cuticle, mainly on bends of limbs where it is thinnest (Fathy, 2012). The tempi of the host's death depends on the type of fungus and number of spores and usually occurs after 4-10 days.…”

“…As agents of biocontrol, oomycetes of Lagenidium giganteum (Schenk, 1859) are also used, which affect larvae of some species of mosquitoes. The fungus allows efficient control of the number of the mosquito Culex pipiens (Linnaeus, 1758) and as a result the spread of such diseases as filariasis and Rift Valley fever (Sur, 2001;Fathy, 2012).…”

The monograph is presented in four parts. The first part is devoted to the experimental and theoretical substantiation of the criteria for safety and quality assessment of goat's milk. Parameters of subclinical mastitis in goats, comparison of methods efficiency for determination of somatic cell count in goat milk, monitoring studies of goat's and cow's milk in France and Ukraine, effect of exogenous and endogenous factors on the quality and safety of goat milk are described. The second and third parts are devoted to Coleoptera pests of stored food supplies and field crops. The forth part includes characteristics of Poaceae family members in the steppe zone of Ukraine as the main objects of farm animals feeding. Ecological characteristics of the species according to the Belgard Ekomorph System and their geographical analysis were presented. Sozological and feeding value of the species were described.

BackgroundTrichomonas gallinae is a parasite that causes canker and severe loss and death, especially in young pigeons. Metronidazole (MTZ) is the recommended drug for treating avian trichomoniasis. Due to drug resistance, non‐chemical alternatives, such as medicinal plant extracts, are also considered possible therapies for this disease.ObjectivesThis study compares the antitrichomonal effects of MTZ with extracts of Camellia sinensis and Ziziphus vulgaris on T. gallinae in vitro.MethodsSamples of T. gallinae were taken from infected pigeons. Multi‐well plates with different concentrations (5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 µg/mL) of plant extracts were used for the in vitro study.ResultsThe minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of C. sinensis extract was 25 µg/mL over 24 h, compared to 50 µg/mL for MTZ. The MIC value of the Z. vulgaris extracts was 50 µg/mL.ConclusionsThe results suggest that the extracts of Z. vulgaris and C. sinensis, as potential natural agents, could have anti‐avian trichomoniasis properties. This study also shows that MTZ, C. sinensis and Z. vulgaris are equally effective in preventing the growth of T. gallinae trophozoites in the culture.
