Fumigant and Contact Toxicities of Monoterpenes to Sitophilus oryzae (L.) and Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) and their Inhibitory Effects on Acetylcholinesterase Activity
TL;DR: Comparisons of contact and fumigant toxicities of eleven monoterpenes on two important stored products insects indicate that (−)-carvone, 1-8-cineole, cuminaldehyde, (l)-fenchone, and (−)-limonene could be effective biocontrol agents against S. oryzae and T. castaneum.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Biopolymer Chitosan and Its Derivatives as Promising Antimicrobial Agents against Plant Pathogens and Their Applications in Crop Protection
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of the antimicrobial effects, mechanisms, and applications of a biopolymer chitosan and its derivatives in crop protection, and take a closer look at the physiochemical properties and chemical modifications of chitosa molecule.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential of the biopolymer chitosan with different molecular weights to control postharvest gray mold of tomato fruit
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the effects of chitosan with different molecular weights on gray mold in tomato fruit may be associated with direct fungitoxic properties against the pathogen, and the elicitation of biochemical defense responses in fruit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and fungicidal activity of new N,O-acyl chitosan derivatives.
Mohamed E. I. Badawy,Entsar I. Rabea,Tina Rogge,Christian V. Stevens,Guy Smagghe,Walter Steurbaut,Monica Höfte +6 more
TL;DR: Novel N,O-acyl chitosan (NOAC) derivatives were synthesized to examine their fungicidal activity against the gray mould fungus Botrytis cinerea and the rice leaf blast fungus Pyricularia oryzae and were more active against the two plant pathogens than chitOSan itself.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insecticidal and fungicidal activity of new synthesized chitosan derivatives.
Entsar I. Rabea,Mohamed E. I. Badawy,Tina Rogge,Christian V. Stevens,Monica Höfte,Walter Steurbaut,Guy Smagghe +6 more
TL;DR: In a radial hyphal growth bioassay with both plant pathogens, all derivatives showed a higher fungicidal action than chitosan, and the effect of different substitutions is discussed in relation to insecticidal and fungicidal activity.
