Insecticidal Activities of Atriplex halimus L., Salvia rosmarinus Spenn. and Cuminum cyminum L. against Dactylopius opuntiae (Cockerell) under Laboratory and Greenhouse Conditions

Abstract: The wild cochineal Dactylopius opuntiae (Hemiptera: Dactylopiidae) is one of the major insect pests of the prickly pear Opuntia ficus-indica (L.) in Morocco, a well-known fruit and vegetable crop of arid and semi-arid regions around the world. The present study investigated the insecticidal potential of six extracts (three aqueous and three hydroalcoholic (MeOH/H2O, 20/80 (v/v)) from Atriplex halimus (leaves), Salvia rosmarinus (leaves) and Cuminum cyminum (seeds) to control nymphs and adult females of D. opun… Show more

“…angustifolia EO using ingestion assay and growth chamber experiments. These results are in agreement with several reports identifying the great potential of essential oils as well as their individual components against harmful insects and mites in fields, greenhouses, and storage conditions. Essential oils derived from Illicium pachyphyllum, Lavandula dentata, Citrus aurantifolia, Ocimum basilicum, Mentha piperita, and others from different families were reported as one of the best for controlling a wide variety of insects in the Curculionidae family. L. angustifolia essential oil is widely reported for its broad range toxicity against different field and storage insect pests at different mode of application. , L.…”
