“…In our bioassays, adult beetles treated only with CA showed noteworthy mortality (up to 70%). The lethal effect of CA on insects has been also verified for the tobacco cutworm, Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) [29] and the cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) [30]. Apart from mortality effects, various studies have demonstrated that CA and other plant phenolic compounds may have negative effects on insect feeding, larval growth rate and reproduction [31][32][33][34][35].…”

Infestations of stored-product pests cause significant losses of agricultural produce every year. Despite various environmental and health risks, chemical insecticides are now a ready-to-use solution for pest control. Against this background and in the context of Integrated Pest Management research, the present study focuses on the potential insecticidal effect of caffeic acid at five different concentrations (250, 500, 750, 1500 and 3000 ppm), and their combination with Cydia pomonella Granulovirus (CpGV), Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. tenebrionis and Beauveria bassiana strain GHA on three major insect stored-product beetle species, Tribolium confusum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), Cryptolestes ferrugineus (Coleoptera: Laemophloeidae) and Trogoderma granarium Everts (Coleoptera: Dermestidae). Treatment efficacy was expressed as mortality in relation to exposure time and adult species number. Compared to the control, the results showed a clear dose-dependent pesticidal activity, expressed as significant adult mortality at a high-dose application, although some of the combinations of caffeic acid concentrations with the other substances acted positively (synergistically and additively) and some negatively. Based on our results, bioinsecticides can be combined with plant compounds such as caffeic acid and be integrated with other modern IPM tools in storage facilities.

“…For instance, caffeic acid has been observed to increase oxidative stress and reduce immune responses in insects. Such effects can detrimentally impact the overall fitness of insects, notably impairing their growth and development, as seen in the study by Punia, Singh, Thakur, and Chauhan (2023) on Spodoptera litura larvae. This suggests that the specific presence of phenolic compounds in the nymph stage of cicadas could be related to these compounds' roles in affecting physiological functions like stress response, immunity, and developmental processes.…”

“…It has been reported that caffeic and fumaric acids are involved in the shikimic acid pathway as precursors of complex compounds, such as coumarins, lignin, tannins, flavonoids, and isoflavonoids [58]. These metabolites have also been reported to have a significant impact on the immune response of S. litura larvae in tobacco, mainly as the concentration of caffeic acid increased [59]. It is also known that these components are found in the plant cell walls of different plant materials.…”

The levels of different nutraceutical metabolites present in the jicama root were measured when subjecting the plant to induced biotic stress via infestation with Phyllophaga spp. (white grubs). The change in secondary metabolites on the stressed jicama roots (SJ), mostly antioxidants, was followed over 100, 140, and 180 days and compared against the non-infested control jicama (CJ). Our results show that infested (SJ) samples contained higher concentrations of tannins, flavonoids, and total phenols, measured using spectrophotometric methods, peaking at 140 days, and higher overall concentration of saponins. SJ samples showed higher DPPH inhibition, peaking at 100 days. Chlorogenic acid had the highest concentration among the phenolic compounds (7.47 mg g−1), followed by protocatechuic acid, both in SJ, which was possibly related to the lower observed concentrations of caffeic and ferulic acids. As for flavonoids, we observed a high concentration of rutin in CJ and a low concentration of pelargonidin and myricetin in SJ, possibly promoted via the dihydrokaempferol pathway. Taken together, these results show that Phyllophaga spp.-mediated biotic stress affects the concentrations of secondary metabolites in the different maturity stages in jicama, having an effect on its metabolic pathways, which presents an opportunity for the use of material such as agro-industrial waste.
