Azadirachtin: an update

TL;DR: This review brings the reader up to date with both pure and applied research in the field and provides a detailed overview of present thinking into the mode of action of azadirachtin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute, sublethal, antifeedant, and synergistic effects of monoterpenoid essential oil compounds on the tobacco cutworm, Spodoptera litura (Lep., Noctuidae).

TL;DR: Trans-Anethole acted synergistically with thymol, citronellal, and alpha-terpineol, in terms of both acute toxicity and feeding deterrence, and several complex mixtures were developed and tested as leads for effective control agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological activity of limonoids from the rutales

TL;DR: This review summarizes the literature on the biological activities of limonoid of known structure, and attempts to relate those activities to current concepts of the evolution of the limonoids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methods to study the phytochemistry and bioactivity of essential oils.

TL;DR: Standardisation of some of the methods to study the bioactivity of essential oils and their constituents is desirable to permit more comprehensive evaluation of plant oils, and greater comparability of the results obtained by different investigators.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioactivity of the essential oil extracted from Evodia rutaecarpa Hook f. et Thomas against the grain storage insects, Sitophilus zeamais Motsch. and Tribolium castaneum (Herbst).

TL;DR: The reduction in growth rate of T. castaneum larvae and S. zeamais adults was mainly due to a behavioural (feeding deterrent) action rather than to post-ingestive toxicity of the oil, and the essential oil had a weaker feeding deterrent action against E. rutaecarpa.
