“…[22][23][24] According to Pedro et al 25 phytocompounds such as flavonoids, alkaloids and saponins are responsible for insecticidal activity. Kotkar et al 26 reported that flavonoids isolated from Annona squamosa are effective as insecticides against Callosobruchus chinensis. In the recent study, the methanolic leaf extract of T.purpurea contain good amount of flavonoids and alkaloids were recorded Table 1.…”

Objective:The bio-efficacy of Tephrosia purpurea leaf extract and bacterial insecticide, Bacillus sphaericus larvicidal activity was assessed against the first to fourth instars larvae of Aedes aegypti, under the laboratory conditions. Methods: The plant material was shade dried at room temperature and powdered coarsely. T. purpurea and B. sphaericus show the various concentrations of larvicidal and pupicidal activity against various instars larvae of A. aegypti. Results: The LC 50 of T. purpurea against the first to fourth instars larvae were 139. 24, 176.24, 219.28, 256.27, and 326.29 A. aegypti in all the tested concentrations than the individuals and clearly established that there is a substantial amount of synergist act. Conclusion: The present study reported that both T. purpurea and B. sphaericus materials could serve as a potential larvicidal agent. Since, A. aegypti is a container breeder vector mosquito this user and eco-friendly and low-cost vector control strategy could be a viable solution to the existing dengue disease burden. Therefore, this study provides first report on the mosquito larvicidal activity the combined effect of T. purpurea leaf extract and B. sphaericus against as target species of A. aegypti.

“…Flavonoids from leaves of Annona squamosa (Kotkar et al, 2002) and Ricinus communis (Upasani et al, 2003) were found to arrest the population growth of adzuki bean weevil, C. chinensis L in green gram (Vigna radiata L.) during storage.…”

Cut-shoot bioassay test was used to study the significance of three flavonoids as aphicides against the woolly apple aphid (WAA), Eriosoma lanigerum (Hausmann). The used flavonoids were two flavanols that are quercetin dehydrate and rutin hydrate, but rutin hydrate is a glycoside of quercetin dehydrate. In addition to one flavanone that was naringine. These flavonoids were used at three concentrations; 100 ppm, 1000 ppm and 10,000 ppm. Results showed that the three tested flavonoids were active as aphicides against the target species and that mortality to nymphs was higher than that obtained against apterous adults. Increasing the concentration of the flavonoids resulted in a remarkable increase in nymphs mortality. However, rutin hydrate is more toxic to WAA than quercetin dehydrate and naringin.The three flavonoids had slight effect on the sole parasitoid of WAA, Aphelinus mali compared with effect caused by imodacloprid insecticide. Quercetin dehydrate, rutin hydrate and naringine can be used as botanical insecticides and incorporated into integrated management programs of the aphid.

“…These phytochemicals may be responsible for the insecticidal nature of the extracts. Previously from the leaves of A. squamosa, several flavonoids [31] and a tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid with cardiotonic activity [32] [33]. Similarly, the alkaloids reported to be present in the latex of C. procera have been shown to contain insecticidal properties [13].…”

In the present study, the crude ethanol extracts of Calotropis procera and Annona squamosa leaves have been screened for their larvicidal activities against Musca domestica. The third instar larvae of housefly were treated with the different concentrations of both the extracts by dipping method for 48 h. The LC 50 values of the extracts of C. procera and A. squamosa leaves were found to be 282.5 and 550 mgl -1 , respectively. The phytochemical analysis of these extracts suggested presence of alkaloids as the major component. The larvae were exposed to 5 and 10% concentrations of the LC 50 value of each extract along with their control sets to evaluate their effect on metamorphosis, nucleic acid and protein content in different developmental stages. The leaf extract of C. procera was found to be more active in terms of insecticidal potential. The data indicate that the leaf extracts of these plants may be utilized as the probable candidates for the development of bioinsecticides to control the population of Musca domestica as safer and economic alternatives to the synthetic insecticides.
