“…EO against Sitophilus zeamais and Sitophilus oryzae (pests of stored cereals), with LC 50 value of 308.11 and 163.55 mg/cm 2 for the insecticidal effect (contact), respectively, and strong insect repellent properties at 13 nL/cm 2 . A similar approach regarding the evaluation of EOs as insecticide and insect repellent can be encountered in the studies published in the same year (2015), by Martínez-Evaristo et al [26], Aguiar et al [27], de Lira et al [28], Guo et al [29], Haider et al [30], Wu et al [31], Yang et al [32], You et al [33], and Zhang et al [34] (details provided in Table 1). Among these articles, the work of Haider et al [30] presents the variation in composition and effect of the EO of Tanacetum nubigenum Wallich.…”

Abstract The overuse of synthetic pesticide, a consequence of the rush to increase crop production, led to tremendous adverse effects, as they constitute a major pollutant for both soils and water, with a high toxicity towards humans and animals and, at the same time, led to development of pest resistance. In the last period, the researches were directed towards finding new solutions with a lower toxicity, less damaging behaviour towards the environment, and a better specificity of action. In this context, the use of essential oils, a complex and unique mixture of compounds, can be considered for the next-generation pesticides. This review aims to present the main applications of the essential oils as insecticides, herbicides, acaricides, and nematicides, as they emerged from the scientific literature published in the last 5 years (2015 to present). From the identified articles within the time period, only those dealing with essential oils obtained by the authors (not commercially available) were selected to be inserted in the review, characterized using established analytical techniques and employed for the envisaged applications. The review is concluded with a chapter containing the main conclusions of the literature study and the future perspectives, regarding the application of essential oils as next-generation pesticides.

“…When insects are exposed to the essential oils, breakdown of the nervous system of insects occurs ( Kostyukovsky et al, 2002 ). The main target sites of essential is octopaminergic system ( Figure 2 ) which plays a key role as a neurotransmitter, neurohormone, and neuromodulator in invertebrate systems, with a physiological role analogous to norepinephrine in vertebrates ( Shaaya and Kostyukovsky, 2006 ). During the insecticidal activity of the essential oils, the mechanism behind the insect mortality is that the volatiles penetrates in the insect body via respiratory system and results in abnormal breathing which leads to asphyxiation and final death of insects ( Pare and Tumlinson, 1999 ).…”

Mentha is a genus from the family Lamiaceae, whose essential oils has long been used in various forms such as in management of plant pathogens and insect pests, in traditional medicine as well as in culinary and cosmetics. Its major chemical components such as menthol, carvone have now been successfully commercialized in the industry as antimicrobials/insecticidal agents. Current review focuses on chemical composition of essential oils of some Mentha species from different geographical regions with their insecticidal (repellent, antifeedant, and ovicidal) and antimicrobial efficacies against bacterial, fungal plant pathogens and insects of stored products. Reports of the researchers on chemical analysis of essential oils of Mentha species revealed that most of the oils being rich in pulegone, menthon, menthol, carvone, 1, 8-cineole, limonene and β-caryophyllene. Reviewed literature revealed that, essential oils from different Mentha species possess potential antimicrobial activity against plant pathogens and have insecticidal activity against stored product insects. Thus, antimicrobial and insecticidal properties of essential oils of Mentha species offer the prospect of using them as natural pesticides with a commercial value, having social acceptance due to its sustainability and being environment friendly.

“…Essential oils of Chenopodium ambrosioides, Clausena pentaphylla, Mentha arvensis , and Ocimum sanctum are contact-sensitive and act as fumigant toxicants against Callosobruchus chinensis and C. maculatus (Pandey et al, 2011a) associated with pigeon pea seeds. Similarly, the essential oil of Tanacetum nubigenum exhibit significant repellent and fumigant toxicity against Tribolium castaneum , which affects wheat during storage (Haider et al, 2015). Eucalyptus globulus essential oil has antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus , thus, it is effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (Bachir and Benali, 2012).…”

Aromatic and medicinal plants produce essential oils in the form of secondary metabolites. These essential oils can be used in diverse applications in food, perfume, and cosmetic industries. The use of essential oils as antimicrobials and food preservative agents is of concern because of several reported side effects of synthetic oils. Essential oils have the potential to be used as a food preservative for cereals, grains, pulses, fruits, and vegetables. In this review, we briefly describe the results in relevant literature and summarize the uses of essential oils with special emphasis on their antibacterial, bactericidal, antifungal, fungicidal, and food preservative properties. Essential oils have pronounced antimicrobial and food preservative properties because they consist of a variety of active constituents (e.g., terpenes, terpenoids, carotenoids, coumarins, curcumins) that have great significance in the food industry. Thus, the various properties of essential oils offer the possibility of using natural, safe, eco-friendly, cost-effective, renewable, and easily biodegradable antimicrobials for food commodity preservation in the near future.
