“…up to 2% was found to be effective but for 100% mortality longer time was required. They suggested the presence of alkaloid momordicin in oil was responsible for it [ 76 ]. In another work, Mishra et al evaluated its seed oil's potential as grain protectant against Callosobruchus chinensis upon the stored legume-pulse grain.…”

Momordica dioica is a perennial, dioecious, cucurbitaceous climbing creeper (commonly known as kakrol, spiny gourd or teasle gourd). It is native to Asia with extensive distribution in India and Bangladesh. It is used not only as preventive and curative agent for various diseases but also as vegetable with a significant nutritional value over thousands of years. This review aims to take an attempt to evaluate the phytochemical, ethnobotanical, phytotherapeutical and pharmacological properties of kakrol according to the view of traditional medicinal plant based treatment including ayurveda along with recent scientific observations. Kakrol is considered as an underutilized vegetable, although having significant presence of certain compounds containing higher nutritional value than many frequently consumed vegetables. Moreover, as a traditional medicinal plant, it is still potential for its phytochemical components that increase the demand of further extensive evaluation to justify its other therapeutical roles. Therefore, this effort will be helpful to researchers who interested to disclose the unjustified phytotherapeutical role of Momordica dioica.

“…The local people know it as "karela" in Hindi and "pavakka" in Tamil. It is used in traditional medicine for several ailments like jaundice, abdominal pain, leprosy, piles, pneumonia, fever, and as an anti-diabetic, abortifacient, anthelmintic, anti-malarial, laxative, antibacterial, antiviral, anthelmintic, and abortifacient agent (Grover and Yadav 2004) and reported to have anti-plasmodial properties (Poonam and Sharma 1998); the seed solvent oil extracted was evaluated against mustard aphid Lipaphis erysimi (Mishra et al 2006). Five cucurbitacins, kuguacins A-E (1-5), together with three known analogues, 3beta, 7beta,25-trihydroxycucurbita-5,(23E)-diene-19-al (6), 3beta,25-dihydroxy-5beta,19-epoxycucur bita-6,(23E)-diene (7), and momordicine I (8), were isolated from the roots of M. charantia; the compounds 3 and 5 showed moderate anti-HIV-1 activity and minimal cytotoxicity against C8166 cells (Chen et al 2008); the methanol leaves extract inhibited feeding of the armyworm larvae, Spodoptera litura and Pseudaletia separata (Yasui et al 1998); the hexane extract and ethyl acetate soluble fraction of methanolic extract of the fruit pulp exhibited anti-feedant activity against S. litura (Narasimhan et al 2005); the acetone extracts caused high nymphal mortality against the cowpea aphid, Aphis craccivora (Ofuya and Okuku 1994) and showed insecticidal activity against the mustered saw fly, Athalia proxima (Arun et al 1979).…”

Larvicidal activity of crude hexane, ethyl acetate, petroleum ether, acetone, and methanol extracts of the leaf of five species of cucurbitaceous plants, Citrullus colocynthis, Coccinia indica, Cucumis sativus, Momordica charantia, and Trichosanthes anguina, were tested against the early fourth instar larvae of Aedes aegypti L. and Culex quinquefasciatus (Say) (Diptera: Culicidae). The larval mortality was observed after 24 h of exposure. All extracts showed moderate larvicidal effects; however, the highest larval mortality was found in petroleum ether extract of C. colocynthis, methanol extracts of C. indica, C. sativus, M. charantia, and acetone extract of T. anguina against the larvae of A. aegypti (LC50=74.57, 309.46, 492.73, 199.14, and 554.20 ppm) and against C. quinquefasciatus (LC50=88.24, 377.69, 623.80, 207.61, and 842.34 ppm), respectively. The petroleum ether extract of C. colocynthis and methanol extract of M. charantia were more effective than the other extracts. This is an ideal eco-friendly approach for the control of the dengue vector, A. aegypti, and the lymphatic filariasis vector, C. quinquefasciatus.

“…Moreover, its insecticidal activity was confirmed by Kumar et al (1979) against the mustard saw fly and mustard aphid, Lipaphis erysimi, by Mishra et al (2006), respectively. In the present study, the larvicidal effects of the fleshy fruit wall of M. charantia against A. stephensi and C. quinquefasciatus were evaluated.…”

Evaluation of larvicidal nature of fleshy fruit wall of Momordica charantia Linn. (family: cucurbitaceae) in the management of mosquitoes

et al. 2009

In view of the recently increased interest in developing plant-based insecticides as an alternative to chemical insecticides, this study was undertaken to assess the larvicidal potential of the various fruit wall extracts of Momordica charantia (cucurbitaceae) against two species of mosquito vectors, Anophels stephensi and Culex quinquefasciatus. Among the extracts tested, petroleum ether (LC(50) = 27.60; 17.22 ppm and 41.36; 15.62 ppm) extract was found more effective than carbon tetrachloride (LC(50) = 49.58; 16.15 ppm and 80.61; 27.64 ppm) and methanol (LC(50) = 142.82; 95.98 ppm and 1,057.49; 579.93 ppm) extracts towards anopheline and culicine larvae after 24 and 48 h of exposure respectively. Thus, all fruit wall extracts of M. charantia are toxic to both the larval species. M. charantia may, therefore, act as an effective biolarvicide against mosquitoes in the future.
