“…It is also in agreement with researches conducted by Nnamani et al (2008) [35] , Nayak and Trajani (2014) [36] and Chandrasekaran et al (2019) [37] ; they reported that volatile oil and leaf methanol extract of Vitex negundo and Vitex trifolia have strong bio-control potential against Cx. quinquefasciatus and Ae.…”

“…For example, Thomas et al (2019) find 16 compounds where caryophyllene and -Eucalyptol are the major which constitutes from 38.36% and 25.72% respectively. Chandrasekaran et al (2018) find 89 compounds in the essential oils from V. trifolia with eucalyptol, sabinene, and caryophyllene are the main constituent represents for 16.35%, 9.44%, and 8.91% respectively. The difference in the essential oil constituents probably due to internal, external factors and their interactions.…”
