“…The results of this study are supported by Malaikozhundan et al (2017) who explained the insecticidal toxicity of Bt-ZnO nanoparticles against Callosobruchus maculatus and found that these nanoparticles were much effective in the control of C. maculatus. Wazid et al (2018) also investigated the insecticidal effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles against C. maculatus at different concentrations and recorded that as the concentrations and post treatment exposure time increased, the mortality also increased. Malaikozhundan and Vinodhini (2018) tested Pongamia pinnata coated zinc oxide nanoparticles against C. maculatus and results showed that due to Pp-ZnO NPs there was reduction in reproduction rate and hatchability of C. maculatus.…”

Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae) causes quantitative and qualitative losses to stored cereals. The excessive use of synthetic residual insecticides led to the development of resistance. These pesticides have adverse effect on the environment. Green synthesized nanoparticles can be a good replacement of synthetic insecticides. Nanoparticles of ZnO prepared using the extract of Eucalyptus globulus L. (Myrtale: Myrtaceae) were never evaluated against R. dominica. Therefore, the present study was planned to evaluate the insecticidal potential of leaf extract of E. globulus and green synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) against adults of R. dominica. Green synthesized ZnONPs were prepared using leaves extract of E. globulus as a simple, non-toxic and ecofriendly green material. Characterization of nanoparticles was carried out using UV-visible spectroscopy, Particle Size Analysis (PSA) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. Insecticide bioassays were conducted using six concentrations (300, 600, 900, 1200, 1500, and 1800 ppm) of E. globulus extract. Similarly six dose rates (100, 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600 ppm) of green synthesized ZnONPs were evaluated after four exposure periods (3, 7, 11 and 15 days). The insect mortality due to E. globulus leaf extract was 62.5% against 1800 ppm dose rate while 80.5% mortality of insect was observed against 600 ppm dose rate of ZnONPs after 15 days exposure period. The LC 50 for leaf extract of E. globulus and green synthesized ZnONPs were 1043.06 and 202.11 ppm respectively. Post treatment growth inhibition of R. dominica was 75.7% and 87.0% against extract and ZnONPs of E. globulus after 30 days. These results indicate that E. globulus leaf extract and green synthesized ZnONPs are effective against R. dominica and can be used as an eco-friendly approach for stored product pest management.

Green nanoparticles are the order of the day and find applications in translational research encompassing agriculture, environment, and biomedical science. Biologically synthesized nanoparticles have excellent insecticidal properties that have opened new avenues towards their utilization in efficient control of insect pests of pharmaceutical and veterinary importance. Nanobiotechnology has also opened new possibilities for improved environmental remediation, and nanoparticles are being used in the sensing, detection, and remediation of different environmental pollutants like heavy metals, dyes, pesticides, and even oil spills. Nanoparticles have been successfully explored in agriculture for improving germination, elemental uptake, use of nutrients, enhancement of crop yield, and stress tolerance in diverse plant species. Biogenic nanoparticles have been utilized for diverse biomedical uses comprising of diagnostics, drug delivery, biosensing, and bioimaging and as antimicrobial agents.
