Insecticidal and repellent activity of essential oil from Amomum villosum Lour. and its main compounds against two stored-product insects

Abstract: The Amomum villosum essential oil was obtained from hydrodistillation and was investigated by GC-MS. The main constituents were bornyl acetate (51.6%), camphor (19.8%), camphene (8.9%) and limonene (6.2%). Insecticidal toxicity of the essential oil was evaluated in this study. It showed that the essential oil possessed contact toxicity against Tribolium castaneum and Lasioderma serricorne (LD 50 = 32.4 and 20.4 μg/adult). Three monoterpenoids camphor, camphene and limonene showed strong fumigant toxicity again… Show more

“…Such a difference of insecticidal activity against various insect species is common. [47] Chen et al [48] found that the essential oil of Amomum villosum Lour. showed fumigant toxicity to red flour beetles but was inactive to cigarette beetles.…”

“…by their chemical composition. Steam distillation combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is used as the routine method for the analysis of the volatile oils of FA [11,12,13]. However, until now no study could show the chemical difference between the volatile oils of FAL and FALX.…”

“…, assigning the biological potential of EOs to the presence of oxygenated monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes hydrocarbons, and hydrocarbon monoterpenes. Several other studies describe the application of various EOs for the control of insects causing severe economic losses[55][56][57][58][59]. Among those studies, it is worth to mention the studies of Navarro-Rocha et al[55], who evaluated two populations of Geranium macrorrhizum L. The wild variety (cultivated in Hungary) showed superior properties (in terms of feeding inhibition and setting inhibition) against Spodoptera littoralis, M. persicae, and Rhopalosiphum padi, Pinene (30.57), 3-carene (26.84), β-phellandrene (21.34), by GC-MS All EOs were obtained by water distillation/steam distillation.…”
