Book
Insect-plant biology
TL;DR: The mechanisms underlying plant resistance to invading herbivores on the one side, and insect food specialization on the other, are the main subjects of this book.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phytochemical based strategies for nematode control.
TL;DR: This review examines the discovery of naturally occurring phytochemicals antagonistic toward plant-parasitic and other nematodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of plant extracts in fish aquaculture as an alternative to chemotherapy: Current status and future perspectives
TL;DR: The studies carried out on the use of plant products on fish aquaculture and their biological effects on fish such as growth promoter, immunostimulant, antibacterial and anti-parasitic are reviewed.

Azadirachtin from the neem tree Azadirachta indica: its action against insects
TL;DR: The behavioral and physiological properties of azadirachtin, including effects on insect reproduction, direct and "secondary" antifeedancy, and the physiological effects measured as growth reduction, increased mortality and abnormal and delayed moults are reviewed.
Journal Article
Role of secondary metabolites in defense mechanisms of plants
TL;DR: This review presents an overview about some of the mechanisms by which plants protect themselves against herbivory, pathogenic microbes and various abiotic stresses as well as specific plant responses to pathogen attack, the genetic control of host-pathogen interactions.

Properties and potential of natural pesticides from the neem tree, Azadirachta indica.
TL;DR: Les substances derivees du «neem», efficaces contre les insectes sont examines (influence sur le comportement de fixation, the ponte, the prise de nourriture, the metamorphose, the fecondite, the fitners) ainsi que les capacites potentielles des insecticides extraits du neem pour le controle des insectes nuisibles and leurs effets sur les animaux.

Journal ArticleDOI
Nonconventional insecticidal effects of pesticides available from the Neem tree, Azadirachta indica
TL;DR: The nonconventional effects of preparations or compounds isolated from Neem may be classified as follows: partial reduction or complete inhibition of fecundity and/or sometimes egg hatchability; reduction of the life span of adults; and direct ovicidal effects against females.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of host-plant recognition
TL;DR: Recognition and preference of host plants involve the integration of a complex of neural and metabolic events that include the sensing and encoding characteristics of the sense organs, decoding mechanisms in the central nervous system, and experiential factors such as induction and aversionlearning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological aspects of antifeedants
TL;DR: When the authors want to find more chemicals which fulfill all requirements of true and effective antifeedants more research on plant chemistry and insect behaviour is needed.
