Background/Objectives: The toxic synthetic pesticides must be replaced by safe, cheap, non-toxic, target-specific insecticides such as natural plant products. This study is to investigate the ovipositional and eclosion inhibitory activities of five plant products against the pulse beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus infesting green gram (Vigna radiata). Method: Fine powders prepared from various parts of the plants Piper longum, Adhatoda vasica, Illicium verum, Cinnamomum zeylanicum and Syzygium aromaticum at various concentrations (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 g) were added to 30 g of V. radiata seeds and two pairs of adult C. maculatus were introduced. Inhibitory effect of oviposition was studied by counting the number of eggs periodically (24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours) and the eclosion failure was also assessed. The control was similar to the experimental setup except for the absence of plant powders. Findings: The oviposition deterrence values which provide a comparison between the control and treatments showed S. aromaticum to be the strongest deterrent with a value of 85.77 followed by C. zeylanicum (76.33), P. longum (66.91), I. verum (62.96) and A. vasica (42.93) at 0.8 g. Also S. aromaticum recorded the highest eclosion failure of 22.06% and the lowest with A. vasica (11.08%) at 0.8 g. Statistical analysis showed an overall significant difference (p < 0.05) between the different plants, concentration wise. Though all the five selected plants exhibited insecticidal activity, S. aromaticum was the strongest in inhibiting oviposition and impairing larval growth of C. maculatus. Novelty: Previous works have demonstrated the insecticidal activity of the essential oils of S. aromaticum and C. zeylanicum but this study has shown that prepared powders of both these spices are quite effective at low concentrations, so can be easily used by farmers.

“…It posses several medicinal properties as well as pharmacological action such as to treat chronic bronchitis, asthma, constipation, gonorrhea, paralysis of the tongue, diarrhea, cholera, chronic malaria, viral hepatitis, respiratory infections, stomachache, bronchitis, diseases of the spleen, cough, and tumors. (Kumer et al, 2011) and it is known to have insecticidal activity against mosquitoes and flies (Sharmah et al,2018). Considering the importance of this medicinal plant, the present investigation was carried out with the objective to determine the prominent germplasm in relation to variation in spike formation and number of flowering spikes which are the important trait in increasing yield in P. longum (Joseph, 2008).…”

The risk of adverse reactions in herbal remedies is less and has become popular to be used traditionally for treating various diseases. The species associated with genus Piper are important medicinal plants used for preparation of herbal medicines. The present investigation was carried out in the Experimental farm, Department of Horticulture, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat-13 during 2013-14 and 2014-15 to investigate the flowering variation of some Piper longum germplasms of North East India. A total of 16 Piper longum germplasms including ‘Viswam’ as check variety were evaluated and experimental data revealed significant difference in spike initiation time among the germplasms with shortest spike initiation period (245.30 days) that recorded in germplasm PLJ-19 while the check var. recorded 287.40 days. Significant and shortest period for spike initiation to maturity was recorded in germplasm PLJ-19 (61.04days) followed by PLJ-01 (61.00days), PLJ-11 (61.38days) and check var. (70.03days).The number of flowering spike per plant ranges in between 58.53-113.73. The highest number of flowering spike per plant 113.73 was observed in germplasm PLJ-19 followed by PLJ-01 (109.40), PLJ-11 (104.11), PLJ-16 (100.33) and were found to be superior over check var. (92.07). The present findings has a significant contribution in determination and identification of germplasm having shorter spike formation period with higher number of flowering spike as the variation in piperine content depends on both the characters also.
