“…Silva et al ( 2010) also studied altenative methods of control of mosquitoes of the genus Aedes and its allies, such as Stegomyia, which transmit diseases such as dengue and yellow fever, by using essential oil of Brazilian pepper. Insecticidal properties of essential oils against parasites and pests of agriculture were also surveyed in the works by Pavela (2006), Boutoumi et al (2009), Samarasekera et al (2006), Clemente et al (2008), Zoubiri et al (2012), Lamari et al (2014), Essolakina et al (2014), Parsia et al (2016, Kolani et al (2016), Khoobdel et al (2017), Hennia et al (2019). No less relevant are the studies on the effect of essential oils on the vitality of Acari in the environment.…”

We studied the effect of essential oils from Picea abies (Linnaeus) H. Karsten., 1881, Cinnamomum verum J. Presl, 1825, Melaleuca alternifolia (Maiden & Betche) Cheel, 1925, Citrus paradisi Macfadyen, 1830, Rosmarinus officinalis Linnaeus, 1753, Citrus aurantiifolia (Christmann) Swingle, 1913, Syzygium aromaticum (L.) Merrill & Perry, 1939, Pterocarpus santalinus Linnaeus filius, 1782, Pelargonium graveolens L’Héritier, 1789, Eucalyptus globulus Labillardière, 1861, Juniperus communis Linnaeus, 1753, Piper cubeba L.f., 1781, Calendula officinalis L., 1753, Laurus nobilis Linnaeus, 1753, Lavandula angustifolia Miller, 1768 and Citrus sinensis (Linnaeus) Osbeck (pro. sp.) on vitality of free-living larvae of Strongyloides papillosus (Wedl, 1856) and Haemonchus contortus (Rudolphi, 1803) Cobb, 1898, and also survivability of eggs of Ascaris suum (Goeze, 1782) under in vitro conditions. The most notable nematicidal properties belong to 0.5% water emulsion of essential oils from C. verum and S. aromaticum: we observed 100% mortality of larvae of S. papillosus L1–3 and H. contortus L3.

“…Plant based insecticides as alternative to conventional chemically synthesized insecticides, with reduced adverse effects on human health and environment are wide documented. The potential of plant-based extracts in controlling pests have been demonstrated, and toxic, repellent, and antifeeding effects of the products were observed (Laba et al, 2012;Tounou et al, 2012;Bokobana et al, 2014;Diabaté et al, 2014;Nadio et al, 2015;Kolani et al, 2018;Sane et al, 2018;Toundou et al, 2020). Therefore, the identification of plants with potential biopesticide activity and locally available and affordable is of great interest.…”

Insecticidal activity of the aqueous extract of the castor seed (Ricinus communis L.) against the Fall Armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), one of the worst pests of maize crop, was assessed under laboratory and field conditions. In laboratory, the larvicidal activity of three concentrations of the extract that are 150 g/l, 200 g/l and 250 g/l and their effects on the development of FAW were evaluated through direct exposure and ingestion tests. The field experiment consisted of a randomized block design with two extract concentrations – 200 g/l and 250 g/l – and negative control consisted of untreated plots and positive control plots were treated with Emacot (Emamectin benzoate). Results of the laboratory experiments revealed considerable larvicidal activity of the extract through the ingestion test, inducing the larvae mortality of 75.8%, 60.3% and 46.5% for the extract concentrations of 250 g/l, 200 g/l and 150 g/l respectively, whereas positive (Emacot) and negative controls (emulsified water) recorded 100% and 3.3% of the larvae mortality, respectively. The field results showed 10% and 11% of infested plants in plots treated with 200 and 250 g/l, respectively, whereas Emacot-treated plots recorded 9.5% of infested plants. Untreated plots recorded the highest infested plants of 22.5%. The two- castor seed extract concentrations 200 g/l and 250 g/l reduced about 50% of maize plant infestation by FAW, thus could be a good candidate as alternative to chemical pesticides in controlling the pest.

Pests and pathogens threaten coffee production worldwide and are difficult to control using conventional methods, such as insecticides. We review the literature on the chemistry of coffee, concentrating on compounds most commonly reported from Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora. Differences in chemistry can distinguish coffee species and varieties, and plants grown under different biogeographic conditions exhibit different chemotypes. A number of chemical groups, such as alkaloids and caffeoylquinic acids, are known to be insecticidal, but most studies have investigated their effects on coffee quality and flavor. More research is required to bridge this gap in knowledge, so that coffee can be bred to be more resistant to pests. Furthermore, we report on some pesticidal plants that have been used for control of coffee pests. Locally sourced pesticidal plants have been underutilized and offer a sustainable alternative to conventional insecticides and could be used to augment breeding for resilience of coffee plants.
