“…It is probably one of the most catholic feeders among the storage pests which feeds on a wide variety of materials viz., rice, corn, cocoa, dried fruits like almonds, date palm, nuts, chocolates, biscuits, oilcake, coffee and other seeds and also when they become fully grown, larvae contaminate the grain by producing dense webbing containing their fecal material and cast skins. In addition to consumption, they spin dense silken fibers which web their fecal material, exuviae together with stored grains, and generally cause qualitative and quantitative losses and reduce seed germination (Attia et al 2020).…”

Corcyra cephalonica (S.) commonly called rice meal moth or rice moth is an important stored-product pest all over the world. The larvae feed on broken grains of cereal, pulses, oilseeds, dried fruits, nuts, and spices by constructing the silken webs. The excessive use of pesticides and chemical compounds used for the management of this pest led to the development of resistance and also harms the environment. To overcome these problems in the recent years, green nanotechnology has emerged as a promising tool for pest control. The present study of the experiment was conducted at the Centre for Nanotechnology Laboratory, UAS, Raichur. The green nanoparticles of zinc, copper, and silica were biosynthesized from Spinach leaves; tulasi leaves and paddy husk respectively, and these nanoparticles were characterized by Zetasizer, UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). The biophysical characterization revealed that the zinc, copper, and silica nanoparticle has Spindle, spherical, and agglomerated spindle-shaped with a mean particle size of 87.94, 84.15 and 23.65 d. nm respectively. The pesticidal effects of these green nanoparticles were used as stored product insect protectants compared to malathion as a standard reference. Data obtained from different concentrations (250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250, and 1500 ppm) of zinc, copper, and silica green nanoparticles indicated that the increase in concentration and exposure period resulted in increase in larval mortality, pupal mortality and adult deformity. Among the different concentrations, 1500 ppm of zinc, copper, and silica nanoparticles proved to be superior. Similarly, of the different nanoparticles, silica nanoparticles excelled followed by zinc and copper nanoparticles.

“…Analogous results were reported by Ammar and Abd-ElAzeem (2021) , who reported that the treatment with gelatin-copper nanoparticles released the lowest values of LC 50 and caused the highest values of pupal mortality and pupation of the spiny bollworm. Attia et al (2020) assess the effects of mesoporous silica nanoparticles, cinnamon oil encapsulated with silica nanoparticles, cinnamon oil, and silica gel on several biological parameters of Corcyra cephalonica sixth instar larvae. When compared to the control, pupation percentage, pupal duration, adult emergence percentage, and adult longevity were reduced in all treatments.…”

Our research shed light on the perspective of formulation technology regarding its responsibility to provide phyto-insecticides that are worthy of research into potential novel applications. There has been an increase in interest in using nanoemulsion as a new formulation in a variety of sectors during the last several decades. Boswellia sacra essential oil (Fam: Burseraceae) from the resin of frankincense trees has been recently proposed as a promising ingredient in a new generation of botanical insecticides. Frankincense nanoemulsion was formulated in 5% ratios comprising frankincense oil, surfactants, and water. A frankincense nanoemulsion was prepared using a high-energy ultra-sonication process and characterized by dynamic light scattering transmission electron microscopy surface tension, viscosity, and zeta potential value. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was used to identify the chemical profiles of frankincense essential oil. Furthermore, insecticidal effects against second instar larvae of the spiny bollworm, Earias insulana, as well as their latent effects on the larvae were studied. In the present study, the formulation was a good nanoemulsion. The surface tension was 53.69, the viscosity was 4.76 cPs, the zeta potential was-10 mV, and the size distribution was 41.30 nm. The polydispersity index (PDI) of the nanoemulsion was found to be 0.26, and the morphology of the frankincense nanoemulsion was visualized in a spherical shape. The main constituents identified in frankincense oil were α-pinene (15.52%); monolinolenin (12.92%); and geranylgeranyl acetate (9.99%). The results showed significant insecticidal activity against the larval stage and considerably decreased the pupation percentage with increasing the volume of the frankincense nanoemulsion. On the other hand, the latent effects of the frankincense nanoemulsion on E. insulana resulted in a higher prolongation of larval and pupal durations as well as a significant reduction in the weight of larvae and pupae of E. insulana. Additionally, frankincense nanoemulsion dramatically influenced the adult emergence percentage. It also caused a significantly lower hatchability percentage compared to the untreated control. The concentrations used and the types of mating combination have a significant effect on the fecundity of E. insulana. This novel frankincense nanoemulsion formulation could be used in strategies to control the spiny bollworm on cotton plants.

“…Silica-based nanomaterials such as mesoporous silica NPs, hybrid silica, silica nanocapsules, hollow porous silica nanospheres, etc., have been explored in food and agriculture-based applications owing to their low toxicity, biocompatibility, high surface area, ease of functionalization, and adjustable pore size distribution. Attia et al 113 fabricated cinnamon oil encapsulated silica NPs and evaluated their larvicidal performance against rice moths. EO-loaded NPs exhibited a 45% reduction in pupation percentage and prevention of full emergence of pupae.…”

The demand for greener agrochemicals and food preservatives has risen significantly during the last few decades to combat the harmful effects of conventional agrochemicals on the environment and human health. Essential oils (EOs) with their natural origin and potent antimicrobial, antibacterial, antifungal, and insect-repellant activities have appeared as a greener and biocompatible alternatives for sustainable agri-food applications. Their use in free form is limited, due to high volatile nature, poor aqueous solubility and therefore, various nanocarriers have been successfully employed for the encapsulation of EOs. These nanocarriers not only prevent the EOs from harsh external environmental conditions but also enhance their efficacy in agri-food applications. Here, we review the different nanocarriers such as emulsions, lipid nanoparticles, biopolymeric nanoparticles, clay-based nanoparticles, and inclusion complexes, which are being extensively used to encapsulate EOs with their respective applications in the food and agriculture sector. Some major recent research attempts being made by researchers to formulate different essential oilloaded nanocarriers and their potential activity in agri-food-based applications have been discussed.
