“…On the other hand, the E3 population of granary weevil has the highest slope value and can be considered homogeneous. Similar to our findings, Kljajić & Perić (2007) reported that the resistance rates obtained for S. granarius in the Belgrade Harbor population after 24 hours of malathion exposure were 4.3-fold higher than in the susceptible population. It was also reported that the Apatin population developed a 3.2-fold resistance to malathion in granary weevil populations from different regions of Yugoslavia (Kljajić & Perić, 2006).…”

This study was conducted to determine the malathion resistance levels of two important stored grain pest beetles, Sitophilus oryzae L., 1763 and Sitophilus granarius L., 1758 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), collected from different provinces of Türkiye in the years 2017-2018. To control these pests, chemical insecticides have been widely used for a long time as a grain protectant in farmer warehouses, flour mills, or silos in many countries, including Türkiye. In the current study, insects were exposed to malathion for 24 hours to determine resistance rates. The highest resistance ratio to malathion in S. oryzae was found in the Adana-Kartepe population with 5.73-fold, and the lowest resistance was found in the İstanbul- Büyükçekmece population with 1.57-fold. While the Konya-Alibeyhöyüğü population of S. granarius had the highest resistance ratio of 6-fold, the lowest resistance rate of 2.54-fold was found in the population obtained from the same location but from a different warehouse. According to this study, we found that slight resistance developed in the populations of S. oryzae and S. granarius in Türkiye. In order to prevent the occurrence of resistance due to synthetic insecticides used against stored product pests, it is thought that various insecticide groups with different mechanisms of action should be used.

“…Maintaining pest prevention and control is an essential issue in reducing any type of damage (Kumar and Kalita, 2017). Various chemical pesticides such as malathion, bromophos, fenitrothion (Lemon, 1967), malathion, pirimiphos methyl (Shawir et al, 1988;Kljajićand Peric, 2007), cyfluthrin (Arthur, 1994;Arthur, 1998), thiamethoxam (Arthur et al, 2004), spinosad (Toews et al, 2003;Bonjour and Opit, 2010;Subramanyam et al, 2012), deltamethrin (Kljajićand Peric, 2007;Sehgal and Subramanyam, 2014;Ziaee and Babamir-Satehi, 2019), methoprene (Daglish and Wallbank, 2005;Athanassiou et al, 2011;Wijayaratne et al, 2012), and chlorfenapyr (Arthur, 2008;Arthur, 2009) have been used to control storedproduct beetles. For decades, the use of chemical pesticides was one of the main components of the integrated management of storage insect and mite pests, providing long-term protection of stored products (Hamel et al, 2020).…”

Fabrication of Carum copticum essential oil–loaded chitosan nanoparticles and evaluation its insecticidal activity for controlling Rhyzopertha dominica and Tribolium confusum

IntroductionPlant essential oils (EOs) can be used as a feasible tool for insect pest control. Nanoparticle formulations of plant EOs can improve the efficiency and stability of EOs, as well as insecticidal potential. MethodsIn this study, Carum copticum L. essential oil–loaded nanoparticles (OLNs) were prepared via an oil-in-water emulsion, followed by droplet solidiffication via ionic gelation using a cross-linker, sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP). The nanoparticles were characterized by ultraviolet and visible (UV–Vis) spectrophotometry, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), laser light scattering (LS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Moreover, the insecticidal activity of C. copticum EO and OLNs was evaluated against Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrychidae) and Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val. (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae). In addition, their effectiveness was assessed on the progeny production of tested insect species.Results and discussionThe loading efficiency ranged from 34.33 to 84.16% when the chitosan to EO weight ratio was 1:1.25 and 1:0.5, respectively. The loading efficiency decreased with increasing EO content in the nanoparticles. The OLN particles exhibited spherical shape. The particle size was in the range 120–223.6 nm and increased with the increase of EO to chitosan ratio. So that the largest mean particle size (223.6 nm) was reported in the 1:1.25 weight ratio of chitosan to the EO. The mortality percentage of R. dominica and T. confusum adults were 74 and 57% when exposed for 7 days to 2000 mg/kg of OLNs at the 1:1.25 weight ratio, while EO caused 62 and 44% mortality on both insect species, respectively. Therefore, OLNs can potentially improve the insecticidal activity of C. copticum EO and could be applied to facilitate control of stored-product insect pests.

“…Infestations do not only cause significant losses due to grain consumption, but also lead to high temperature and moisture conditions that accelerate growth of molds, including toxigenic species (Storey et al 1984;Magan et al 2003;Tripathi 2018). These storage pests are usually controlled with synthetic pesticides, which increases the risk of environmental pollution, insecticide residues, and pesticide resistance (Regev et al 1983;Guedes et al 1994;Kljajić and Perić 2007). In addition, legislation in many countries tends to limit the use of broad-spectrum contact insecticides.…”

The modes of action of Mentha arvensis essential oil on the granary weevil Sitophilus granarius revealed by a label-free quantitative proteomic analysis

et al. 2021

Although synthetic pesticides are still used to control insect pests, greater efforts have been made to develop healthier and more environmentally friendly pesticides. Because of their insecticidal properties, botanical essential oils (EOs) are considered as promising alternatives to the use of synthetic insecticides. However, little is known about mechanisms underlying the insecticidal activity of most these natural compounds. In the present study, we evaluated the contact toxicity and the modes of action of the EO from Mentha arvensis against the granary weevil, Sitophilus granarius L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), a cosmopolitan insect pest that causes extensive damage to stored cereals. M. arvensis EO caused high contact toxicity in S. granarius adults, resulting in a rapid paralysis and rapid alteration of walking behavior. Our label-free quantitative proteomics approach revealed that M. arvensis EO induced dramatic physiological changes in exposed insects. The majority of the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were upregulated and are related to the development and functioning of the muscular and nervous systems, cellular respiration, protein synthesis, and detoxification. These results suggest that M. arvensis essential oil is capable of affecting a variety of biological processes, and shed light on the repair mechanisms put in place in surviving insects to counter the damage inflicted. This work opens new perspectives on the proposed mechanisms of insecticidal activity of a promising EO for controlling pests of stored cereals and may represent a first step in the development of novel bio-rational insecticides.
