Contact toxicity and persistence of essential oils from Foeniculum vulgare, Teucrium polium and Satureja hortensis against Callosobruchus maculatus (Fabricius) adults (Coleoptera: Bruchidae)
Contact toxicity and persistence of essential oils extracted from Foeniculum vulgare Miller (Apiaceae), Teucrium polium L. (Lamiaceae) and Satureja hortensis L. (Lamiaceae) were evaluated against the adults of cowpea seed beetle, Callosobruchus...
Vapor activity of essential oils extracted from fruit peels of two Citrus species against adults of Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Bruchidae)
The present study investigated the effects of volatile fractions of Citrus limon and C. reticulata peel essential oils on the cowpea adult bruchid, Callosobruchus maculatus (F.). The oils were extracted from the fruit peels using water steam...
Vapor toxicity of Lavandula angustifolia (Mill) and Zataria multiflora (Bioss ) essential oils against the adults of cowpea seed beetle Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Bruchidae )
A key pest of cereals is the cowpea seed beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus, a bruchid that infests various stored pulses including cowpea, chickpea, lentil, mung bean and broad bean. In the last few decades, the use of environmental friendly...
Fumigant toxicity of Lavandula angustifolia Mill and Zataria multiflora Bioss on Callosobruchus maculatus (F.)-Coleoptera: Bruchidae
Pulses including cowpea, (Vigna unguiculata) are the important sources of protein in many developing countries. A key pest of cowpea is the cowpea seed beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus (F.), a bruchid that infests both pods in the field and seeds...
