Essential oil (EO) was extracted from Callistemon citrinus leaves by hydro-distillation. The extracted oil was analysed by GC and Mass Spectroscopy. Analysis report showed that the major constituent of the essential oil was eucalyptol (40.44%). The EO of C. citrinus exhibited 100% fumigation toxicity (adult mortality) against adult and 95.8% larvicidal activity against Tribolium castaneum at 160 μL/L (12 hrs) and 320 μL/L (48 hrs), respectively. The effective concentration of 37.05 μL/L (adult) and 144.31 μL/L (larva) at 24 and 48 hrs respectively. A 100% repellent activity was observed at 20 μl for adult beetles and 93.3% for larvae of T. castaneum at 20 μl after 24 h. Exposure to C. citrinus EO significantly reduced beetle fecundity, ovicidal activity, egg hatching, larvae survival, and emergence of adult. The effect of EO on detoxification enzymes of T. castaneum adults was examined. Results indicated that the activity of detoxification enzymes drastically varied when compared with control. This EO had toxicant effects on all stages of the life of T. castaneum. Hence it may be used as fumigant instead of the use of using synthetic chemical fumigants.

Tribolium castaneum is one of the major pests of stored grains which causes extensive damages. To control this insect pest many synthetic chemical pesticides are used. However, continuous usage of synthetic fumigants causes pest resurgence, toxic residues, genetic resistance in pests, environmental contamination and health hazards etc., To avert these problems, essential oils are used as bio-fumigants to control the stored pests. They could act as best alternatives to synthetic fumigant in closed environment. Hence, the present study aimed to evaluate the pesticidal activity of Callistemon citrinus oil against Tribolium castaneum. GC-MS analysis of C. citrinus essential oil (EO) showed 10 compounds; among them, the major constituent was eucalyptol (1, 8-cineole) at 40.44%. The lethal concentration (LC50) values were 37.05 μL/L (adults) and 144.31 μL/L (larvae) at 24 and 48 hrs respectively. Exposure to C. citrinus EO significantly reduced the beetle fecundity, ovicidal activity, egg hatchability, larvae survival and emergence of adult. The effect of EO on enzymatic activity of T. castaneum adults was examined using Acetylcholinesterase, α-Carboxylesterase, β-Carboxylesterase, Glutathione-S-Transferase, Acid and Alkaline phosphatase assays. The results indicated that the activity of detoxification enzymes drastically varied when compared with control. This EO had toxicant effects on all stages of the life of T. castaneum.

Summary Clausena is a genus of Rutaceae family commonly used in traditional medicine. This report aims to provide the brief review on the chemical components and bioactivities of essential oils (EOs) isolated from Clausena plants. The phyto-chemicals of EOs obtained from different plant parts of Clausena species are characterized by several chemical groups such as oxygenated sesquiterpene, oxygenated monoterpene, monoterpene hydrocarbons, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, etc. In addition, the studied oils also possess the antimicrobial, insecticidal and larvicidal activities.
