“…Comparing the acaricidal action of the oils using the fumigant method to data reported in the literature, the EO from Citrus reticulata was threefold more active against T. urticae than the oil from a sample collected in South Korea (Choi et al, 2004). In another study, Araújo et al (2012) Investigating the fumigant action of a commercial C. arantiifolia oil, Pavela et al (2016) found a 7% mortality rate of T. urticae exposed to 15 µl/L of air. In comparison, the EO from C. aurantiifolia investigated herein was more toxic, causing a 50% mortality rate at a concentration of 11.24 µl/L of air.…”

“…In another study, Araújo et al () estimated the mean lethal concentrations (CL 50 ) of three orange peel oils (two varieties of C. sinensis and C. aurantium ) and found greater activity against T. urticae compared to the oils of the species studied in the present investigation ( C. aurantiifolia, C. limon , C. reticulata and C. reticulata × C. sinensis ). Investigating the fumigant action of a commercial C. arantiifolia oil, Pavela et al () found a 7% mortality rate of T. urticae exposed to 15 µl/L of air. In comparison, the EO from C. aurantiifolia investigated herein was more toxic, causing a 50% mortality rate at a concentration of 11.24 µl/L of air.…”

“…Citrus reticulata is also reported to have action against pests of interest to human medicine (Badawy et al, 2017), agricultural activities and grain storage (Badawy et al, 2017;Mishra, Tripathi, & Tripathi, 2014), including the two-spotted spider mite (Choi, Lee, Park, & Ahn, 2004). Moreover, the EO from Citrus aurantiifolia has demonstrated action against the two-spotted spider mite in a previous study (Pavela, Stepanycheva, Shchenikova, Chermenskaya, & Petrova, 2016). In contrast, no previous studies have evaluated the biological properties of the EOs from Citrus limon or Citrus reticulata × Citrus sinensis in terms of the effects on T. urticae.…”

Tetranychus urticae is a major agricultural pest with worldwide distribution that has caused considerable damage to vegetable crops in north‐eastern Brazil. The aim of the present study was to investigate the chemical and lethal/sublethal effects of essential oils from the peels of the lime (Citrus aurantiifolia), lemon (C. limon), mandarin orange (C. reticulata) and (C. reticulata × C. sinensis) as well as selected constituents (linalool, α‐terpineol, α‐pinene, β‐pinene, terpinolene and limonene) against T. urticae. The greatest yield was achieved with the mandarin and tangerine peel oils. The chemical analysis (gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry) of the essential oils from the Citrus fruit peels enabled the identification of 127 compounds, revealing a predominance of monoterpenes. Limonene was the major constituent, and α‐pinene, β‐pinene, linalool and α‐terpineol were found in substantial quantities. Regarding the susceptibility of T. urticae, the Citrus oils and selected constituents were more effective by fumigation than residual contact. The C. reticulata oil was the most toxic by fumigation, and the C. limon oil was the most toxic by residual contact. The constituent α‐terpineol exhibited the highest toxicity with both methods. At a sublethal concentration, the oils and selected constituents had significant effects on the fecundity, feeding preference and oviposition of the mite. Citrus oils and their constituents are potentially useful for the future integrated management of T. urticae due to their lethal and sublethal properties. However, further studies are needed to evaluate the action of these essential oils against non‐target organisms and determine the cost–benefit ratio for the formulation of an acaricide harvested from agro‐industrial waste from citric fruit processing activities for use in the integrated control of T. urticae.

“…These compounds are also known to show antifungal, antibacterial, and antinematicidal properties (Máthé, 2015). The volatile nature of essential oil helps them to extend their fumigation action and wide reach of the compounds in grain storages (Pavela, Stepanycheva, Shchenikova, Chermenskaya, & Petrova, 2016).…”

“…The insecticidal efficacy of essential oils from 20 different Egyptian plants was studied by Abou‐Taleb, Mohamed, Shawir, and Abdelgaleil (2016) against adult T. castaneum and the highest LC 50 of 0.07 mg/cm 2 was obtained for Origanum vulgare and Artemisia monosperma . Several other studies were conducted on the GRAS essential oils, oleoresins, and other plant extracts of angelica, basil, citrus peels, lemongrass, thyme, turmeric, pepper, and components such as cinnamaldehyde, camphene, pinene, citral, p‐cymene, eugenol, limonene, menthol, and linalool (Deshwal, Gupta, Vaibhav, Kumar, & Kumar, 2018; Pavela et al., 2016; Suthisut, Fields, & Chandrapatya, 2011). Nonphytotoxicity, easy biodegradability, traditional knowledge, and safe nature to human beings and nontarget organisms make these plant products important in insect pest management programs (Rath & Mohapatra, 2015).…”

Management of stored product insects is a major concern and widely researched topic in the food and grain processing and storage industry. In the scenario of estimated utilization of produces exceeding the production, postharvest losses should be properly controlled to feed the growing population. The prevailing disinfestation techniques are forced to meet regulatory standards and market demands. The resistance developed by insects, environmental concerns, and occupational hazards lead to the vanishing of many chemicals used in insect and pest management programs. Some of the major disinfestation techniques such as the use of chemical fumigants, ozone, irradiation, dielectric heating, extreme temperature treatments, and bio rational approaches are discussed, particularly on the storage of cereal grains and its products, as they contribute to a significant proportion of food consumed worldwide. Newer techniques such as nonthermal plasma and metabolic stress disinfestation and decontamination for stored pest control are developed and evaluated in different parts of the world. The knowledge about the mode of action of these disinfestation techniques is important to avoid the cross-resistance and multiple resistance developed by insects with frequently used techniques. Various alternatives to conventional fumigants are discussed in this review as there is a growing demand for toxic-free, environment-friendly, and, at the same time, efficient techniques.

BACKGROUNDTetranychus urticae Koch, is a polyphagous and damaging pest, presenting several resistant populations worldwide. Among new and more environmentally friendly control tools, botanical pesticides represent a valuable alternative to synthetic ones within IPM strategies. Accordingly, we investigated on the lethal and sub‐lethal effects of the polyacetylene carlina oxide isolated from Carlina acaulis (Asteraceae) on T. urticae and on its natural enemy, the predatory mite, Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor).RESULTSCarlina oxide (98.7% pure compound) was used for acaricidal tests on eggs, nymphs, and adult females of T. urticae, (concentrations of 312.5, 625, 1250, 2500 and 5000 μL/L), and eggs and females of N. californicus (1250 and 5000 μL/L on eggs and females, respectively). Behavioral two‐choice tests were also conducted on phytoseiid females. Carlina oxide toxicity was higher on T. urticae females than nymphs (LD50 1145 and 1825 μL/L, respectively), while egg mortality and the mean hatching time were significantly affected by all tested concentrations. A decreasing daily oviposition rate of T. urticae was recorded with concentrations ranging from 625 to 5000 μL/L, while negative effects on the population growth rate were recorded only with the three higher concentrations (1250, 2500 and 5000 μL/L). No toxic effect to N. californicus females was found, but a strong repellent activity lasting for 48 h from applications was registered.CONCLUSIONCarlina oxide reduced longevity and fecundity of T. urticae adults, but not of N. californicus. This selective property allows to propose it as a novel active ingredient of eco‐friendly acaricides for T. urticae management.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
