Sesamin a potent antifeedant principle fromPiper mullesua

Parasitism-mediated horizontal transfer of a functional cytochrome P450 gene entails transposon colonization in newly gained introns

“…In contrast to Cuscuta species, we did not identify any homologs of SiCYP81Q1 in the publicly available genomes of Ginkgo biloba , Magnolia ashei , or Piper nigrum , even though several phylogenetic relatives in Lamiales produce sesamin via CYP81Q genes (7, 8, 35) ( SI Appendix , Fig. S1).…”

Repellent and Feeding Deterrent Activities of Butanolides and Lignans Isolated fromCinnamomum camphoraagainstTribolium castaneum

“…As for lignans, the feeding deterrent activities of two sesamin-type compounds (1 and 2) were generally poor. However, sesamin was reported to exhibit significant antifeedant activity towards Spilarctia obliqua larvae, and it was considered as a potent antifeedant principle from Piper mullesua [43]. Additionally, a piece of old literature mentioned that sesamin-type lignans could function as active insecticidal synergists for pyrethrins and rotenone without increasing toxicity to mammals [44].…”

Zanthoxoaporphines A–C: Three new larvicidal dibenzo[de,g]quinolin-7-one alkaloids from Zanthoxylum paracanthum (Rutaceae)

“…The isoquinoline moiety could be the pharmacophore of this class of compounds and the presence of a ketone at C-7, C-4 or C-5 [22] seems to contribute to the activity. Sesamin, which showed moderated larvicidal activity, has also been reported to have antifeeding and growth-inhibition activities [23]. …”
