description | Plants are a source of substances for protection of stored products. The Cuban flora has not yet been fully studied as a source of pesticides for postharvest protection, partly due to its great diversity. The toxicity of four Cuban plant derivatives against Lasioderma serricorne (F.) and Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky was investigated. The anti-insect activity of the powders and the essential oil from plants belonging to Asteraceae, Fabaceae and Piperaceae was tested. Mortality and emergence of adult insects and the repellent effect of products were evaluated. Two products derived from Piper aduncum subsp. ossanum, caused high mortality (81,6 and 100%), reduced emergence (27,9 and 0,4%) and exhibited strong repellent activity on L. serricorne. Against S. zeamais, treatments with the highest mortality values were stems of Lonchocarpus punctatus (72,4%), seeds and stems of Canavalia ensiformis (64,9 and 69,9%), and leaves of Tithonia diversifolia (67,2%). The progeny production of S. zeamais was inhibited by powders of L. punctatus stems (31,8%), C. ensiformis seeds (40,5%), leaves (43,7%) and stems (30,6%), and T. diversifolia leaves (38,7%). The stems of C. ensiformis, leaves of T. diversifolia and L. punctatus had the highest repellent effect. These products have potential for small-scale treatments of grains for protection against both insects, and P. aduncum subsp. ossanum-based products to control L. serricorne infestation in tobacco. Identification of local candidates to develop effective and safe pesticides offers new alternatives to the Cuban agriculture in the control of storage pests. |
