In the present study, the essential oil from seven common spices, Anethum graveolens, Cuminum cyminum, Illicium verum, Myristica fragrans, Nigella sativa, Piper nigrum and Trachyspermum ammi was isolated and its insecticidal, oviposition, egg hatching and developmental inhibitory activities were determined against pulse beetle, Callosobruchus chinensis. Essential oils were isolated by hydrodistillation method using Clevenger apparatus. These essential oils caused death of adults and larvae of Callosobruchus chinensis when fumigated. The 24-h LC 50 values against the adults of the insect were 8.9 ml, 10.8 ml, 11.0 ml, 12.5 ml, 13.6 ml, 14.8 ml and 15.6 ml for N. sativa, A. graveolens, C. cyminum, I. verum, P. nigrum, M. fragrans and T. ammi oils respectively. On the other hand, against larval stage these values were 6.4 ml, 7.9 ml, 8.9 ml, 11.1 ml, 11.7 ml, 12.2 ml and 13.5 ml for N. sativa, A. graveolens, C. cyminum, I. verum, P. nigrum, M. fragrans and T. ammi respectively. These essential oils reduced the oviposition potential, egg hatching rate, pupal formation and emergence of adults of F 1 progeny of the insect when fumigated with sublethal concentrations. These essential oils also caused chronic toxicity as the fumigated insects caused less damage to the stored grains. The essential oil of N. sativa was found most effective against all the different stages of the Callosobruchus chinensis followed by A. graveolens, C. cyminum, I. verum, P. nigrum, M. fragrans and T. ammi oils. All the responses were found concentration-dependent. The toxic and developmental inhibitory effects may be due to suffocation and inhibition of various biosynthetic processes of the insects at different developmental stages.

“…Recently, this crop has been tested for its antioxidant (free radical scavenging-FRS) activity confirming the great interest of the nutraceutical sciences (Ansari et al, 2005). Effectiveness of its extract as larvicide (Prabakar and Jebanesan, 2004) and its seed oils as grain protectant against certain insects are not very far discoveries (Mishra et al, 2007). So far, 106 local landraces of L. acutangula have been reported in Bangladesh (Rabbani, 2007).…”

Variability, character association and diversity analysis of ridge gourd (Luffa acutangula roxb.) genotypes of Bangladesh

2014

Sixty genotypes of ridge gourd (Luffa acutangula Roxb.) were collected from different locations of Bangladesh and were used to study their variability, character association and genetic diversity. Seventeen traits studied, of these, eight showed high heritability (over 80%). Correlation coefficient study indicated that yield per plant had highly significant positive relationship with the number of fruits per plant (r = 0.874**), average fruit weight (r = 0.707**), vine length at harvest (r = 0.359**) and length of fruit (r = 0.334**). On the other hand, the sex ratio and circumference of fruit exhibited negative association with yield. Path co-efficient analysis showed that number of fruits per plant exhibited the highest positive direct effect (0.7192) on yield followed by average fruit weight (0.4656). Based on Mahalanobis' D 2 statistics, the sixty genotypes were grouped into four different clusters. Clustering pattern revealed that genotypes collected from the same location were grouped into different clusters. The average intercluster distances were always higher than the average intracluster distances suggesting wider genetic diversity among the genotypes within the cluster. Custer-III had the highest intracluster distance (97.9).

“…Beside these, it has antioxidant, analgesic, nephroprotective, neuroprotective, antiallergic, antiulcer, anticancer, antimicrobial, antimalarial, hepatoprotective, antihepatotoxic, antiedemic and insecticidal properties (Talukdar and Hossain 2014). Narasimhan et al (2005) showed antifeedant activity of M. dioica against Spodoptera litura and the seed oil of M. dioica could be used as grain protectant against Callosobruchus chinensis (Mishra et al 2006). Later on, Ahire and Deokule (2012) showed the allelopathic activity of M. dioica on Phaseolus aconitifolius Jacq.…”

Sex-oriented research on dioecious crops of Indian subcontinent: an updated review

2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A number of dioecious species are grown across India and some of those plants play a crucial role in the agrobased economy of the country. The diagnosis of sex is very difficult in the dioecious plant prior flowering wherein sex identification at the seedling stage is of great importance to breeders as well as farmers for crop improvement or production purpose. A comprehensive approach of sex determination comprising morphological, biochemical, cytological and molecular attributes is a must required for gender differentiation in dioecious plant species. In the present review, we highlighted the economical, medicinal as well as industrial importance of most of the dioecious species extensively grown in Indian subcontinent. In addition to that, the cytogenetic, genetic as well as molecular information in connection to their sex determination were critically discussed in this review.
