“…The seed oil extract of Acacia nilotica possessed robust larvicidal action against major mosquito vectors (Vivekanandhan et al, 2018a). A remarkable biological activity of EOs against Dengue vectors has been extensively reviewed by Chellappandian et al (2017Chellappandian et al ( , 2018Chellappandian et al ( , 2019. Plant volatile oils were also conveyed with mosquitocidal potentials.…”

Mosquitoes are a serious threat to the society, acting as vector to several dreadful diseases. Mosquito management programes profoundly depend on the routine of chemical insecticides that subsequently lead to the expansion of resistance midst the vectors, along with other problems such as environmental pollution, bio magnification, and adversely affecting the quality of public and animal health, worldwide. The worldwide risk of insect vector transmitted diseases, with their associated illness and mortality, emphasizes the need for effective mosquitocides. Hence there is an immediate necessity to develop new eco-friendly pesticides. As a result, numerous investigators have worked on the development of eco-friendly effective mosquitocidal compounds of plant origin. These products have a cumulative advantage of being cost-effective, environmentally benign, biodegradable, and safe to non-target organisms. This review aims at describing the current state of research on behavioral, physiological, and biochemical effects of plant derived compounds with larvicidal effects on mosquitoes. The mode of physiological and biochemical action of known compounds derived from various plant families as well as the potential of plant secondary metabolites, plant extracts, and also the essential oils (EO), as mosquitocidal agents are discussed. This review clearly indicates that the application of vegetal-based compounds as mosquito control proxies can serve as alternative biocontrol methods in mosquito management programes.

“…Essential oils (EO) derived from plant parts contain bioactive compounds that can be used in isolation or in combination for managing pests of agriculture, medical and veterinary importance (Isman 2006 ; Pavela 2011 ; Pavela and Benelli 2016 ; Senthil-Nathan 2020 ; Khater and Geden 2019 ). The biodegradable nature and safety of these botanically-derived chemicals to nontarget organisms provides an alternative to synthetic insecticides (Poorjavad et al 2014 ; Chellappandian et al 2019 ). The potency of essential oil and its constituents against M. domestica has been reported earlier (Sinthusiri and Soonwera 2014 ; Benelli et al 2018 ).…”

Ocimum basilicum essential oil (EO) was evaluated for its biological effects on M. domestica . Characterization of O. basilicum EO revealed the presence of methyl chavicol (70.93%), linalool (9.34%), epi-α-cadinol (3.69 %), methyl eugenol (2.48%), γ-cadinene (1.67%), 1,8-cineole (1.30%) and ( E )-β-ocimene (1.11%). The basil EO and its constituents methyl chavicol and linalool elicited a neuronal response in female adults of M. domestica . Adult female flies showed reduced preference to food source laced with basil EO and methyl chavicol. Substrates treated with EO and methyl chavicol at 0.25% resulted in an oviposition deterrence of over 80%. A large ovicidal effect was found for O. basilicum EO (EC 50 9.74 mg/dm 3 ) followed by methyl chavicol (EC 50 10.67 mg/dm 3 ) and linalool (EC 50 13.57 mg/dm 3 ). Adults exposed to EO (LD 50 10.01 μg/adult) were more susceptible to contact toxicity than to methyl chavicol and linalool (LD 50 13.62 μg/adult and LD 50 43.12 μg/adult respectively). EO and its constituents methyl chavicol and linalool also induced the detoxifying enzymes Carboxyl esterase (Car E) and Glutathione S – transferases (GST).

“…Generally, plant extracts/essential oils/bioactive compounds have performed significant roles as mosquitocides and insecticides specially targeting lepidopteran insects [ 3 , 4 ]. The class of “plant extracts” generally covers a huge blend of phytochemicals, many of which delivered a higher impact in controlling insect pests [ 5 ]. Global researchers have proved that plant extracts and their bioactive compounds predominantly control harmful agriculture pests and disease-spreading arthropods with similar toxicity as displayed by chemical pesticides [ 6 , 7 , 8 ].…”

The present research investigated the chemical characterization and insecticidal activity of n-Hexane extracts of Epaltes divaricata (NH-EDx) along with their chief derivatives n-Hexadecanoic acid (n-HDa) and n-Octadecanoic acid (n-ODa) against the dengue vector Aedes aegypti and lepidopteran pest Spodoptera litura. Chemical screening of NH-EDx through GC–MS analysis delivered nine major derivatives, and the maximum peak area percentage was observed in n-Hexadecanoic acid (14.63%) followed by n-Octadecadienoic acid (6.73%). The larvicidal activity of NH-EDx (1000 ppm), n-HDa (5 ppm), and n-ODa (5 ppm) against the A. aegypti and S. litura larvae showed significant mortality rate in a dose-dependent way across all the instars. The larvicidal activity was profound in the A. aegypti as compared to the S. litura across all the larval instars. The sublethal dosages of NH-EDx (500 ppm), n-HDa (2.5 ppm), and n-ODa (2.5 ppm) also showed alterations in the larval/pupal durations and adult longevity in both the insect pests. The enzyme activity revealed that the α- and β-carboxylesterase levels were decreased significantly in both the insect pests, whereas the levels of GST and CYP450 uplifted in a dose-dependent manner of NH-EDx, n-HDa, and n-ODa. Correspondingly, midgut tissues such as the epithelial layer (EL), gut lumen (GL), peritrophic matrix (Pm), and brush border membrane (BBM) were significantly altered in their morphology across both A. aegypti and S. litura against the NH-EDx and their bioactive metabolites. NH-EDx and their bioactive metabolites n-HDa and n-ODa showed significant larvicidal, growth retardant, enzyme inhibition, and midgut toxicity effects against two crucial agriculturally and medically challenging insect pest of ecological importance.
