Mosquitoes are a serious threat to the society, acting as vector to several dreadful diseases. Mosquito management programes profoundly depend on the routine of chemical insecticides that subsequently lead to the expansion of resistance midst the vectors, along with other problems such as environmental pollution, bio magnification, and adversely affecting the quality of public and animal health, worldwide. The worldwide risk of insect vector transmitted diseases, with their associated illness and mortality, emphasizes the need for effective mosquitocides. Hence there is an immediate necessity to develop new eco-friendly pesticides. As a result, numerous investigators have worked on the development of eco-friendly effective mosquitocidal compounds of plant origin. These products have a cumulative advantage of being cost-effective, environmentally benign, biodegradable, and safe to non-target organisms. This review aims at describing the current state of research on behavioral, physiological, and biochemical effects of plant derived compounds with larvicidal effects on mosquitoes. The mode of physiological and biochemical action of known compounds derived from various plant families as well as the potential of plant secondary metabolites, plant extracts, and also the essential oils (EO), as mosquitocidal agents are discussed. This review clearly indicates that the application of vegetal-based compounds as mosquito control proxies can serve as alternative biocontrol methods in mosquito management programes.

“…The plant-derived oils have biological activities, namely antibacterial, antifungal, antifeedant, as well as insecticidal activities [ 12 , 13 ]. Plant-based essential oil and crude extract have strong ovicidal activity against mosquito eggs [ 14 ] and larvicidal activity [ 15 , 16 , 17 ]. Biotoxicity of neem cake extract shows strong insecticidal activity against mosquitoes [ 18 ].…”

“…Biotoxicity of neem cake extract shows strong insecticidal activity against mosquitoes [ 18 ]. Many research studies have evaluated the use and efficacy of natural plant products against arthropod pests [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ]. A previous report showed that Coriandrum sativum (Apiaceae) essential oil shows strong insecticidal activity against A. albopictus (larvae LC 50 was 421 ppm and LC 90 was 531 ppm)[ 15 ].…”

Botanical metabolites are increasingly realized as potential replacements to chemical insecticides. In the present study, Acacia nilotica seed essential oil and seed pod solvent extracts were tested for bioefficacy against three important types of mosquitoes. Mortality was recorded 24 h post-treatment, while smoke toxicity of adult mosquitoes was recorded at 10 min intervals for 40 min. Seed pod powder was extracted with different solvents and hydrodistilled seed oil chemical constituents were determined by using Gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) -. Larvicidal and adulticidal efficacy of seed hydrodistilled essential oil and solvent extracts were tested against larval and adult mosquitoes. The seed hydrodistilled oil provided strong larvicidal activity against Anopheles stephensi, (LC50 (lethal concentration that kills 50% of the exposed larvae) = 5.239, LC90 (lethal concentration that kills 90% of the exposed larvae) = 9.713 mg/L); Aedes aegypti, (LC50 = 3.174, LC90 = 11.739 mg/L); and Culex quinquefasciatus, (LC50 = 4.112, LC90 = 12.325 mg/L). Smoke toxicities were 82% in Cx. quinquefasciatus, 90% in Ae. aegypti, and 80% mortality in An. stephensi adults, whereas 100% mortality was recorded for commercial mosquito coil. The GC-MS profile of seed essential oil from A. nilotica showed the presence of hexadecane (18.440%) and heptacosane (15.914%), which are the main and active compounds, and which may be involved in insecticidal activity. Overall findings suggest that the seed oil showed strong mosquitocidal activity against mosquito vectors and therefore may provide an ecofriendly replacement to chemical insecticides.

“…Una revisión bibliográfi ca reciente muestra que compuestos derivados de plantas como: taninos, quinonas, fl avonoides, esteroles, cumarinas y alcaloides son utilizados ampliamente como potenciales larvicidas (Sarwar 2015), metabolitos secundarios presentes en las especies evaluadas. De estos compuestos, en la familia Asteraceae, los fl avonoides y terpenos (y sus derivados, v. g., esteroles, triterpenos) han sido registrados como metabolitos con actividad larvicida (Macêdo et al 1997, Nikon et al 2011, Vivekanandhan et al 2018. Por lo tanto, los resultados aquí encontrados son promisorios para el control de larvas de A. aegypti.…”

ResumenEl dengue, chikunguña y Zika, todas transmitidas por Aedes aegypti, son enfermedades que afectan ampliamente la población mundial. La evaluación de extractos vegetales permite el establecimiento de productos efi cientes para el control de éste mosquito. Este trabajo evaluó la actividad larvicida en A. aegypti de 23 especies de la familia Asteraceae, y su composición fi toquímica preliminar. El material vegetal utilizado se recolectó en el Departamento del Quindío, Colombia. Con este material se prepararon los extractos vegetales etanólicos utilizados en la caracterización fi toquímica y en los bioensayos. Para cada extracto se realizó un bioensayo dosis-respuesta con larvas provenientes del municipio de Armenia (Quindío, Colombia) siguiendo el protocolo de la OMS. Estos indican que, después de 48 h, los extractos de Jaegeria hirta (694,8% ± 149,9), Austroeupatorium inulaefolium (753,3% ± 198,8) y Heliopsis oppsitifolia (764,4% ± 170,0) requieren menor concentración para matar el 95% de las larvas. Adicionalmente, se construyó un modelo matemático que describe el comportamiento de las poblaciones, con el fi n de evaluar diferentes estrategias de control con los extractos; las simulaciones obtenidas a partir de la solución numérica del sistema permiten concluir que la aplicación de extractos de estas plantas constituye una herramienta viable para el control de A. aegypti. Por su parte, la marcha fi toquímica preliminar de las 23 especies muestra la presencia de taninos, quinonas, fl avonoides, esteroles, cumarinas y alcaloides. Se concluye que J. hirta, A. inulaefoliu y H. oppsitifolia ameritan ser estudiadas en profundidad, dado su potencial larvicida para el control de A. aegypti. AbstractDengue, chikungunya and Zika, all transmitted by Aedes aegypti, are diseases that affect the human world population. The evaluation of raw plant extracts allows the establishment of effi cient products for the control of populations of this mosquito. This work evaluated the larvicidal activity of 23 species of the family Asteraceae, and its preliminary phytochemical composition, to control populations of A. aegypti. The vegetable material was collected in the department of Quindío, Colombia. We prepared the plant extracts used in the phytochemical characterization and bioassays with the material collected. For each extract, a dose-response bioassay was performed with larvae from the municipality of Armenia (Quindío, Colombia) following the WHO protocol. These assays indicated that after 48h the extracts of Jaegeria hirta (694.8% ± 149.9), Austroeupatorium inulaefolium (753. 3% ± 198.8) and Heliopsis oppsitifolia (764.4% ± 170.0) require less concentration to kill 95% of larvae. Additionally, a mathematical model that describes the behavior of the mosquito populations was constructed, in order to evaluate different control strategies using the extracts; the simulations obtained from the numerical solution of the system allow us to conclude that the application of extracts from these plants constitutes a viable tool for A...
