“…In addition, Leon-Reyes, et al (2010) reported that Jasmonates (JAs) and salicylic acid (SA) are plant hormones that play pivotal roles in the regulation of induced defenses against microbial pathogens of necrotrophic fungus, Alternaria brassicicola and insect herbivores, Pieris rapae. Meanwhile, Amer and Nafea (2011) found that propolis is a natural resin produced by honeybees colonies in two kind (Egyptian and Chinese propolis) were tested against some injurious pests i.e. eggs, newly hatched and 4 th instars larvae of the pink bollworm, Pectinophora.…”

Cotton Leaf worm, Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd.) treated as 4 th instar larvae by two compounds of acetyl salicylic acid (A.S.A) and chlorpheniramine maleate (C.P.M) to evaluate its efficacy on S. littoralis larvae as alternative new compounds for insecticides. Also, some biological and life table parameters of S. littoralis treated as 4 th instar larvae were estimated. In addition, S. littoralis moths treated by LC 50 of A.S.A and C.P.M to evaluate the mating frequency & ability and batches fluff cover shape deposited by moth in different treatments (T♂xT♀, U♂xT♀, T♂xU♀ and U♂xU♀). Obtained results could be summarized as following: Tested compounds of A.S.A and C.P.M were efficacy on S. littoralis larvae, but C.P.M was more toxicity and effective on the most estimated parameters than another compound (A.S.A). Compounds of A.S.A and C.P.M had increased in larval & pupal mortalities, control of hatchability and sterility; also, tested compounds decreased the pupation, moth's emergency, number of eggs per female, egg hatchability and fecundity of S. littoralis treated as 4 th instar larvae. In addition, its caused decreasing in mating frequency and ability of different crosses moth and the batches deposited without fluff covers and the egg-masses had unstable partly on the deposited surface until hatching, especially in T♂xT♀ treatments. Moreover, the two tested compounds, especially C.P.M had drastically decreased the life table parameters as number of females/female (Mx), survival rate (Lx), net reproductive rate (Ro), intrinsic rate of natural increase (r m), and finite rate of increase (e rm). Aforementioned compounds had increased from generation (T) and doubling (DT) times. So, A.S.A and C.P.M are considered affecting compounds against two harmful stages (larvae and moths) of S. littoralis, especially C.P.M, that it could be used to reduce the insecticide applications but need more experiments in a wide range.

This study applies a propolis from a stingless bee, Heterotrigona itama as an alternative to control the infestation of a subterranean termite, Coptotermes curvignathus. The objective of this study was to assess the antitermitic activity of stingless bee’s propolis as termiticide based on its repellency activity, contact toxicity effect as well as its ability to act as cellulase inhibitor. The bioactive components of the propolis in terms of the phenolics and flavonoids content were also determined. It was observed that the propolis is a termite’s repellent with a preference index of -0.73. Upon contact, it can kill 50% of the termite’s population within 1.5 hours with lethal concentration of about 16% (w/v). It’s extract also can inhibit cellulase activity of termites. Diameter of the clear zone on the CMC agar was found to be significantly reduced from 3.1 cm to 2.4 cm when 30% (w/v) propolis’s extract was added into the termite extract at the ratio of 1 to 4 (termite: propolis extract). In conclusion, from the results obtained, propolis from Heterotrigona itama has high potential to be used as an environmentally safe alternative to chemical termiticide.
