“…Therefore, we suggest that the insecticidal activity of pomelo peel oil, orange leaf oil, and zanthoxylum oil may be attributed to their main constituents, such as D-limonene (78.36%), methyl jasmonate (51.50%), and linalool (52.69%), individually, or synergistically to the other active compounds that are present in lower concentrations [ 16 ]. Previous studies have also shown that these Rutaceae EO compounds are known for their insecticidal activity against many insects [ 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 ]. For example, the main compound of Protium heptaphyllum (Aubl.)…”

“…Linalool resulted in a 100% mortality rate against red imported fire ant workers at 5, 10, and 20 mg/tube after 8 h of treatment, and D-limonene induced >86% mortality after 8 h of exposure [ 60 ]. Linalool demonstrated both contact and fumigant activities against L. serricorne (LD 50 = 15.36 μg/larva) [ 61 ]. In addition, the insecticidal activity of the EOs tested depends on the plants they derive from, their concentration, and exposure time [ 16 ].…”

To meet the demand for novel pest management strategies to combat the development of insecticide resistance, plant essential oils may be a promising alternative source. This study investigated the insecticidal activity of five essential oils from the Rutaceae plant family against Thrips flavus Schrank (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) under laboratory conditions. The plant essential oils were citrus oil (Citrus reticulata Blanco), Chuan-shan pepper oil (Zanthoxylum piasezkii Maxim.), zanthoxylum oil (Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim.), pomelo peel oil (Citrus maxima (Burm.) Merr.) and orange leaf oil (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck). Among the essential oils evaluated, orange leaf oil (LC50 = 0.26 g/L), zanthoxylum oil (LC50 = 0.27 g/L), and pomelo peel oil (LC50 = 0.44 g/L) resulted in a higher gastric toxicity under laboratory conditions. The results of the pot experiment also showed that orange leaf oil (93.06 ± 3.67% at 540.00 g a.i.·hm−2, 97.22 ± 1.39% at 720 g a.i.·hm−2, 100.00% at 900.00 g a.i.·hm−2) zanthoxylum oil (98.73 ± 1.27% at 900 g a.i.·hm−2), and pomelo peel oil (100.00% at 900 g a.i.·hm−2) exhibited a higher control efficacy, being the most effective against T. flavus after 7 days of treatment. The essential oil components were then identified by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The insecticidal activity of orange leaf oil, pomelo peel oil, and zanthoxylum oil could be attributed to their main constituents, such as methyl jasmonate (50.92%), D-limonene (76.96%), and linalool (52.32%), respectively. In the olfactory test, adult T. flavus were attracted by zanthoxylum oil and Chuan-shan pepper oil. We speculated that linalool might be the key signaling compound that attracts T. flavus. These results showed that orange leaf oil, zanthoxylum oil, and pomelo peel oil exhibited insecticidal activities under controlled conditions. They can be implemented as effective and low-toxicity botanical insecticides and synergistic agents against T. flavus.

Molecular studies on odorant receptors (ORs), odorant‐binding proteins (OBPs) and the functioning of the receptor and pheromone signal transduction in fruit fly Bactrocera species have expanded exponentially during the past few decades. OBPs contribute to the sensing of the olfactory system (OS) via the transduction of odorants through the sensillum lymph. However, ORs, a family of G‐protein‐coupled receptors in Bactrocera and various other species, exhibit heightened responsiveness to multiple chemical odours such as hormones, sensory stimuli and neurotransmitters. The apparent mechanism involves a combinatorial code encompassing both peripheral and antennal lobe processing, facilitating the reception of sexual pheromones and environmental cues. The OS is specifically designed to recognize and process information from volatile chemical signals, and these chemical signals play an important function in various flies. Insects rely on these chemicals to navigate and comprehend their surroundings. A mature insect OS is composed of two pairs of sensillae‐covered palps, antennae and two primary pairs of olfactory appendages on the anterior head. It has been shown that chemosensory gene families contribute in odour perception. These include various neuroreceptor families, such as OBPs, chemosensory proteins and sensory neuron membrane proteins. Additionally, there are three divergent chemoreceptors, namely ORs, ionotropic receptors and gustatory receptors. Methods based on systematic biology, molecular biology and bioinformatics tools have rapidly emerged to investigate the insect communication systems and provide new insights for the management of many agricultural pest. Several aromatic compounds, including semiochemicals and pheromones, have been employed to defend crops and animals from destructive fruit flies and other invasive and frugivorous species. To promote the expansion of the cropping system, the utilization of phytochemical lures can be convenient for sustainable agriculture production and enhance food security. Hence, this review examined the state of the art in chemical communication of insects with a focus on fruit fly pest species to identify OS and their semiochemical receptors, protein receptors and chemosensory receptors (CSRs), as well as their practical applications for biological control and integrated pest management are highlighted.

“…2022). Also, the main components of Zanthoxylum bungeanum essential oil were d-limonene and linalool, which had good toxicity effect on Tribolium castaneum(Liang et al 2022). Most of the reports have been biased towards measuring the fumigation toxicity of plant essential oils, while our experiment focused on the synergistic effect between d-limonene and different pesticides.…”

Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) is an important global invasive pest, which damages plants by feeding on phloem sap and causes great losses to agricultural production. At present, the management of B. tabaci still relies on insecticides. Based on the emergence of the insecticide resistance and the pursuit of environmental friendliness, more green control methods have been generated. Insects rely on odorant-olfactory proteins to identify specific volatiles and locate hosts, and these volatiles can be exploited in agricultural pest control. This study evaluated the control efficacy of d-limonene, a common volatile in three avoidant plants. Our results showed that d-limonene had a repelling effect on B. tabaci, and the LC50 value of d-limonene was 81.623 ppm. Moreover, the LC50 of bifenthrin and flupyradifurone were reduced by 25.2% and 38.7% when mixed with d-limonene. The underlying molecular mechanism of d-limonene recognition by B. tabaci was investigated. Treating B. tabaci with dsBtabOBP3 increased the control effect of d-limonene, and the LC50 of d-limonene, mixture (L+B) and mixture (L+F) were decreased by 32.6%, 38.4% and 33.1%. These results indicated that specific volatiles could directly bind to target genes and therefore enhance the control effect of B. tabaci.
