Evaluation of botanicals against Callosobruchus chinensis Linnaeus in black gram under storage condition

Abstract: Botanical powders were evaluated for their grain protectant efficiency against Callosobruchus chinensis Linnaeus in stored black gram grain. Among the various botanical powders tested, neem leaf (Azadirachta indica A. Juss), garlic bulb (Allium sativum Linnaeus) and eucalyptus leaf (Eucalyptus globulus Labill) @ 2 per cent (w/w) recorded more than 32 per cent adult mortality, higher half-life values (> 56.97 days) and higher gross persistency (> 1999.48). Significantly lower number of adults were emerged… Show more

“…Further, the neem leaf powder is identified as effective protects of black gram, pigeon pea and green gram seeds, against C. chinensis with maximum adult mortality [31,32,33,34]. Meanwhile a study in India on the insecticidal action of nine plant species such as neem, garlic, eucalyptus, pongam, tulsi, custard apple, mint, ardusi and kalmegh against C. chinensis in black gram showed the significant role of neem leaf powder in controlling the C. chinensis followed by garlic bulb powder where acceptable efficacy has been exhibited by eucalyptus, pongam, tulsi and custard apple leaf powder [31]. However, the botanicals, mint, ardusi and kalmegh showed less effective against infesting black gram [31].…”

“…In severe cases, the entire quantity of stored grain gets reduced to a mass of empty shells and dust. It has been reported that C. chinensis also harbours certain pathogenic micro-organisms that cause food poisoning and spoilage besides quantitative damage (Neelgund and Kumari, 1983) [16] .The plant materials as powder form and their extracts have also been reported effective against pulse beetle in storage by Pandey et al, (1976) [17] , Juneja and Patel (2002) [10] , Kotkar et al, (2002) [13] , Bajya et al, (2007) [4] , Chander et al, (2007) [5] , Shaheen and Khaliq (2005) [18] , Suthar and Bharpoda, (2016) [19] , Khinchi et al, (2017) [11] , Kosar and Srivastava, (2016) [12] . Hence, looking to seriousness of the pest and to develop economical, eco-friendly approach for the management of the beetle in storage, water and ethanol extracts of some easily available plants material were tested against pulse beetle.…”

“…The use of plant products is one such alternative as they are cheap, easy to use, readily available, biodegradable, specific mode of action, safe for the environment and human beings (Gahukar, 2012, Kedia et al, 2015, Mounika et al, 2021. Various plant products have been found to have insecticidal, oviposition deterrent and ovicidal properties against bruchids and other insect pests (Tripathi et al, 2002, Singh, 2003, Singh et al, 2006, Ahad et al, 2012, Suthar and Bharpoda, 2016, Swamy and Wesley, 2017.…”
