Sublethal exposure to an emulsion based on Pogostemon cablin (Lamiaceae) essential oil impairs digestibility, feeding, fecundity, and mobility of the coffee berry borer, Hypothenemus hampei
Abstract:The global search for eco-friendly and human-safe pesticides has intensified, and research on essential oils (EOs) has expanded due to their remarkable insecticidal activities and apparent human-safe. Despite this, most of the literature focuses on short-term and simplified efforts to understand lethal effects, with only a few comprehensive studies addressing sublethal exposures. To fill this shortcoming, we explore the lethal and sublethal effects of Pogostemon cablin (Lamiaceae) EO and an EO-based emulsion (… Show more
