Characterization of Nanospheres Containing Zanthoxylum riedelianum Fruit Essential Oil and Their Insecticidal and Deterrent Activities against Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae)

The aim of our study was to produce and characterize poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) nanospheres containing essential oils from Zanthoxylum riedelianum fruit and to evaluate their stability gains as well as their insecticidal and deterrent activities against whitefly (Bemisia tabaci). The PCL nanospheres exhibited a homogeneous spherical morphology, with particle diameters between 106.7 nm and 129.2 nm, pH of approximately 6, zeta potential (ZP) lower than −19.0 mV and encapsulation efficiency higher than 98%. Only 43% of the nanoencapsulated essential oil (NSEO) was degraded in response to ultraviolet light, whereas the essential oil (EO) degraded by 76% over the same period. In a free-choice test, the NSEO and EO reduced the number of whitefly eggs by approximately 70%. NSEO and EO at 1.5% killed 82.87% and 91.23% of 2nd-instar nymphs of whitefly, respectively. Although NSEO displayed lower insecticidal activity, it offers a greater advantage over the free EO, due to protection conferred by polymer against photodegradation. Therefore, its usage may optimize the maintenance of essential oils in the field through photoprotection and controlled release. Our results suggest that the EO of Z. riedelianum fruit can be used for B. tabaci management strategy; nevertheless, the benefits of NSEO require further evaluation at the field level.

“…Based on the results of GC-MS analysis, the main components of different harvesting time could be identified in the following sequence: MK15; sabinene (85.81 µg•mL −1 ), methyl ( −1 ). Sabinene was also the major component in the essential oil of other Zanthoxylum species, including that found in Zanthoxylum rhoifolium L. and Z. myriacanthum [29,34]. Other literature suggests that L-limonene is the important volatile compound from the essential oil of fresh Z. myriacanthum var.…”

Evaluation of the Optimum Harvesting Maturity of Makhwaen Fruit for the Perfumery Industry

et al. 2019

Harvesting makhwaen (Zanthoxylum myriacanthum Wall. ex Hook. f) fruits at the appropriate maturity is the key to ensure that the essential oil quality meets the need of consumers. In common practice, the fruits are usually harvested when their pericarps start to open and fruits are greenish-red in colour depending on the judgment of the farmers. This leads to inconsistencies in the essential oil quality. This research aims at characterising the aromatic profiles of makhwaen essential oil thereby for consumers to choose the quality that best fits their need and eventually identify the optimum harvesting index of the fruits. The effects of maturity states viz. 15, 36, 45 and 60 (MK15-60) days after fruiting on chemical and sensorial quality of the essential oil was evaluated. Fruit sizes ranged from ~3.3–3.7 mm and fruits appeared to dry initially when they reached 45 days. Essential oils were extracted from these fruits after they had been oven dried (60 °C) to the same moisture content, about 10%. The chemical profiles of the essential oil were different. L-limonene and sabinene were evaluated as key components for good quality essential oil and they were found to be higher in MK45 and MK60 (max = 139.04 µg·mL−1 and max = 146.27 respectively). NIR spectral patterns of pure extracted oil for every different harvesting time (of every different harvesting time of MK60 and MK36) were similar. Sensorial descriptive analysis by semi-trained panellists defined six terms for characteristics (woody, citrus, herb, sweet, pine and spice). The panels provided the highest rating score (15 numeric scale) of citrus and pine scents at MK45, while sweet and woody aromas were the highest at MK15. The spice scent was maximum when the fruits were harvested at 36 days after fruiting. From this study we suggest that the optimum harvesting index for the distinctive aroma of essential oil ought to be at late harvesting (45–60 days after fruiting). The findings contribute to our understanding of the harvesting maturity, which can also provide significant benefit for the perfumery industry, i.e., the optimum harvesting stage that imparts the essential oil with highest quality.

“…Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) MEAM1 (Middle East-Asia Minor 1) and Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) are common sap-sucking pests, and important global agricultural pests (Zhang et al, 2015). As a worldwide invasion pest, MEAM1 causes serious agricultural losses (Ballina-Gomez et al, 2013;Costa et al, 2017). MEAM1 infestation causes various phenotypic changes, for instance, silverleaf whitefly infested squash (Cucurbita pepo L.) plants displays silverleaf symptoms (Masuda et al, 2016;Zhang et al, 2017a).…”

Infestation of Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 (Gennadius) causes significant phenotypic changes in a variety of plants. However, plants damaged by Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood) show no similar changes. In this study, to explore the effects of MEAM1 infestation on tobacco growth and the mechanism underlying these effects, growth index, and photosynthesis of infested tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), as well as content of hormones, including auxin, gibberellin, cytokinin, abscisic acid, methyl jasmonate, and ethylene were measured. The results demonstrated that infestation of MEAM1 significantly inhibited tobacco growth and the inhibition effect varied with MEAM1 feeding densities, 50 MEAM1 per infested tobacco plant decreased plant height, internode length, and dry weight cm-2 , and this inhibition peaked at 200 MEAM1 per plant, which reduced by 52.17%, 43.83%, and 45.61% that of controls, respectively. Additionally, MEAM1 infestation inhibited photosynthesis of tobacco, causing significant decrease in chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance. However, the effects of T. vaporariorum infestation on tobacco were significantly lighter than that of MEAM1. Hormones assays indicated that infestation with 200 MEAM1 per plant for 30 d significantly affected hormones content, among which gibberellin content was specifically reduced compared with that of uninfested control plants and T. vaporariorum infested plants. Furthermore, exogenous application of 1 and 2 μM gibberellin alleviated the reduction in plant height mediated by MEAM1. Therefore, infestation of MEAM1 significantly inhibited tobacco growth and photosynthesis, and the reduction of gibberellin content may contribute to this inhibition.
