“…It was only very recently that the synthetic insecticides effectively became the prominent agrochemicals for controlling all forms of agricultural pests and have assumed a very important position in the marketplace [25]. A flavonoid compound leanchianone G isolated from root bark of M. alba showed significant antiviral activity against herpes simplex type 1 virus (HSV-1) by Du et al, [26] which supports our findings of the activity of root extract of the plant.…”

Petroleum ether (Pet. ether), CHCl 3 and CH 3 OH extracts of white mulberry were subjected to dose-mortality tests against Callosobruchus chinensis (L.), Sitophilus oryzae (L.) and Tribolium castaneum (Hbst.). Pet. ether extract of leaves against C. chinensis, S. oryzae and T. castaneum provided LD 50 9. 16, 5.06, 3.79, 2.81, 2.06, 1.55, 1.32, 1.38 mg/g; 17.6, 12.9, 11.3, 82.4, 83.5, 9.47, 8.73, 8.61 mg/g and 0.93, 0.826, 0.691, 0.623, 0.567, 0.532, 0.525 mg/cm 2 after 0. 5,6,12,24, 36, 48, 60, 72 h of exposures respectively. Against C. chinensis Pet. ether extract of root and stem bark gave LD 50 28.3, 20.7, 18.4, 16.9, 14.4, 13.6, 13.3, 13.3 mg/g and 86.3, 228.9, 177, 109, 61.0, 21.8, 0.999, 15 mg/g after 0.5, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 h of exposures respectively. CH 3 OH extracts of leaves offered LD 50 21.5, 20.4, 17, 16.2, 15.6, 14.7 mg/g against C. chinensis; 5.4, 14.7, 13.7, 11, 10.9, 9.46, 9.10 mg/g against S. oryzae; and 3.804, 3.429, 3.284, 2.736, 2.441, 2.311, 2.264 mg/cm 2 against T. castaneum after 6,12,24, 36, 48, 60, 72 h of exposures respectively. Against S. oryzae CH 3 OH extract of root and CHCl 3 of stem bark gave LD 50 19.5, 19.1, 17.5, 16.7, 16.2, 15.8, 15.9 mg/g and 9.77, 9.44, 7.71, 6.56, 5.94, 5.39, 5.4 mg/g after 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 h of exposures respectively. However, CHCl 3 extract of leaves and root didn't show mortality.

“…Th ese characteristics make them promising candidates for the biological control of insect pests acting eff ectively but slowly. Th ey also have minimal off -target impacts (Oberemok and Skorokhod 2014;Oberemok et al 2015a;Oberemok et al 2015b) in comparison with chemical insecticides (Lozowicka et al 2015;Oberemok et al 2015b). Th e data of this work indicate that the specifi c DNA oligonucleotides may interfere with expression of vIAP genes to induce stronger apoptosis in infected insects.…”

The high efficiency of baculovirus infection is partially explained by the ability of the virus to suppress host defense machinery connected with the apoptosis pathway. Members of the baculovirus gene family, inhibitors of apoptosis (vIAPs), have been shown to inhibit apoptosis in baculovirus-infected cells. Here we showed that treatment of the LdMNPV-infected 1st instar gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar) caterpillars with sense (oligoBIR) and antisense (oligoRING) DNA oligonucleotides from the LdMNPV IAP3 gene induced elevated mortality of the insects. Apoptotic DNA ladder assay showed that the leading role in this phenomenon is played by the antisense oligoRING fragment of the vIAP3 gene. These results imply that the application of both antisense DNA oligonucleotides from vIAP genes and baculovirus preparations (one following the other) may be a potential method for plant protection against insect pests.

“…It is assumed that in 2050 the use of pesticides will be 2.7 times greater than in 2000. This will cause humans and the environment to be in a dangerous condition [14,15]. There were many references about the impact of pesticides on soil and water environment.…”

Uncontrolled application of pesticides can contaminate soil and may kill other nontarget organisms. This study aims to determine the usage pattern of pesticides by farmers in Wanasari Subdistrict and study the soil quality degradation potential. This study was a quantitative and qualitative research. Sources of data were collected from observation, questionnaire, and in-depth interview methods. The respondents were shallot farmers who planted shallot during 2013-2016 ( = 60). In-depth interview was done with three respondents from the local agricultural extension center (BPP). This study found that there were some different types of insecticides and fungicides that were used in every planting season. The farmers applied pesticides in large amount once every three or four days. They mixed minimally three insecticides and fungicides types about 30-40 ml for each type. Organophosphate residues that were found in soil samples were methidathion residue about 0.014 mg/kg, malathion residue ranging around 0.1370-0.3630 mg/kg, and chlorpyrifos residue in the range of 0.0110-0.0630 mg/kg. The excessive application of pesticides showed the land degradation potential. Soil quality laboratory testing is recommended to ensure the agricultural land condition. Routine assessment of soil quality and pesticide usage control is recommended to keep sustainable ecosystem.
