oils extracted from leaves of Aegle marmelos, Mentha arvensis,
peels of Citrus reticulata and clove of Syzygium aromaticum
by hydrodistillation method were screened as fumigant for chronic activity against
rice weevil Sitophilus oryzae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in laboratory
assay. All four essential oils showed chronic activity in a dose dependent manner.
Fumigation with sub-lethal concentration of essential oils significantly (p<0.01)
reduced oviposition capsity and exhibited ovicidal activity. Highest reduction
in oviposition (35.66%) and feeding deterrence index (74.52%) observed in A.
marmelos essential oils against S. oryzae in comparison to control
groups. These studies showed strong insecticidal activity of all four essential
oils and its potential role as a fumigant against S. oryzae. From this
study it is concluded that these essential oils have potential for application
in Insect Pest Management programs for stored-grain insect pests because of
its fumigant action.]]>Aslan, I., O. Calmasur, F. Sahin and O. Caglar,2005Ephestia kuehniella (Zell.), Lasioderma serricorne (F.) and Sitophilus granarius (L.).]]>112257267Asmanizar, A.
