Repellent, toxic, and food protectant effects of pithraj,Aphanamixis polystachya extracts against pulse beetle,Callosobruchus chinensis in storage

Abstract: Ground leaves, bark, seeds, and four seed extracts of pithraj,Aphanamixis polystachya (family Meliaceae), a locally grown plant in Bangladesh, were evaluated for their repellency, contact toxicity, and food protectant efficacy against adult pulse beetle (Callosobruchus chinensis L.). The seed extracts showed poor repellent effects, but high contact toxicity to adults at 72 hr after application. The ground leaves, bark, and seeds provided good protection for mung beans against pulse beetles, and the seed powder… Show more

“…Then ten adult insects were released into the middle of the petri-dish. Insects were counted after 1 h and then at hourly intervals for 5 h. The average of the counts was converted to percentage repellency using the formula: PR = (Nc-5) × 20 Where, Nc was the average hourly observation of insect on the untreated half of the disc [30,31].…”
