Article
Full-text available
Helicoverpa armigera Nucleopolyhedrovirus (HearNPV) (genus: Alphabaculovirus, incertae sedis: Baculoviridae) has been used to control Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner). A reproducible and susceptible cell line was prepared from the hemocytes of Ephestia kuehniella in Grace and Ex-Cell 420 media. The population doubling time of these cloned cell culture...
Article
5 This study investigated the impact of temperature stress on the immune system of Dacus ciliatus 6 Loew (Diptera: Tephritidae) by examining the morphology and density of hemocytes, which 7 are crucial components of insect immunity. Various factors, such as temperature stress, dietary 8 changes, and the entry of contaminants and infections into the...

Nanoformulation has been considered one of the newly applied methods in integrated pest management strategies. In this research, a conventional neonicotinoid insecticide acetamiprid was nanoencapsulated via AL (Sodium Alginate) and PEG (Polyethylene Glycol) and tested against the elm leaf beetle Xanthogaleruca luteola. The synthesized particles had...
Article
Full-text available
Extensive usage of synthetic chemical pesticides has collateral effects in harming human and animal health and the environment and promoting the development of resistance in pests. The potential of plant compounds as bio insecticides has been described as a promising field of agricultural development. The present study involved the use of Artemisia...
Article
Full-text available
Plant essential oils may serve as safe alternatives to detrimental synthetic pesticides due to relatively lower side effects on the environment and non-targeted organisms. The current study was conducted to investigate the ovicidal toxicity and physiological disruptions of six medicinal plant essential oils, including Artemisia annua L., Lavandula...

As the global population continues to grow, the demand for food, health, services, industrial products, etc. is constantly felt more. In this regard, paying more attention to reducing, inhibiting and destructive factors of agricultural, livestock, industrial, and health products such as plant pests is of utmost importance. Unprecedented environment...
Article
The humoral and cellular defenses are crtitical in insects’ immunity. In the present study we focused on individual haemocyt types of mulberry pyralid, Glyphodes pyloalis Walker (Lep.; Pyralidae) and examined them for the first time by light, differential interference contrast, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Like many lepidopterous...
Article
Full-text available
The effects of four mulberry varieties (Kenmochi, Ichinose, Shin Ichinose, Mahalii) on nutritional indices and digestive proteolytic and amylolytic activities of Glyphodes pyloalis Walker (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) were determined at 24±1°C, 75±5% RH and a photoperiod of 16:8 L:D. Fifth instar larvae reared on Shin Ichinose showed the highest efficie...
Conference Paper
Natural compounds originating from plants might be potential alternative pesticide that are not persistent in the environment and are safe to non-target organisms and human. In this study, four medicinal plant essential oils Oriyganum vulgarre L. , Lavandula angustifolia L. , Rosmarinus officinalis L. and Thymus vulgaris L. were Selected and thence...

The elm leaf beetle Xanthogaleruca luteola Müller (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), is a serious pest of elm (Ulmus spp.) throughout Iran. In the present study, Lethal and sublethal effects of neem, Achook® containing 0.03% azadirachtin, were assessed on mortality, growth, larval weight and feeding deterrence as well as enzymatic and non-enzymatic activ...

The striped rice-stem borer, Chilo suppressalis (Walker) is one of the most important pest of rice worldwide. In this study, a proteinaceous extract from Citrullus colocynthis L. shows various degrees of inhibition to digestive α-amylases of C. suppressalis. Digestive α-amylases of larvae were inhibited by different concentrations (approximately 50...
