Toxicity of the Hexane Fraction of Fruits and Seeds of <i>Ricinus communis</i> to Caterpillars of the <i>Spodoptera</i> Complex
The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the hexane fraction of the crude extract of the fruits and seeds of <i>Ricinus communis</i> (HFFSRC) on eggs of <i>Spodoptera cosmioides</i> and <i>Spodoptera frugiperda</i> and on caterpillars of <i>S...

| description | The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the hexane fraction of the crude extract of the fruits and seeds of <i>Ricinus communis</i> (HFFSRC) on eggs of <i>Spodoptera cosmioides</i> and <i>Spodoptera frugiperda</i> and on caterpillars of <i>Spodoptera eridania</i>, <i>S. frugiperda</i>, and <i>S. cosmioides</i>, under laboratory conditions through topical application and ingestion, as well as to identify the compounds in the hexane fraction through high-performance chromatography (HPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS/MS). To do so, three bioassays were conducted: (1) the effect of HFFSRC at 2% (20,000 mg·mL<sup>−1</sup>) on eggs of <i>S. cosmioides</i> and <i>S. frugiperda</i>, (2) the lethal effect of HFFSRC at 2% applied topically, and (3) the lethal effect of HFFSRC at 2% applied to soybean-leaf discs on first-, second-, third-, and fourth-instar caterpillars of the three insect species. It was found that 2% HFFSRC had an ovicidal effect on <i>S. frugiperda</i> and <i>S. cosmioides</i>, completely reducing larvae hatching and the insecticidal effect for the four instars of the three insect species when applied topically and on food. Five compounds were identified in the HFFSRC: three flavonoids, one ricinoleic acid, and one cinnamic acid. HFFSRC at 2% had an acute ovicidal and insecticidal effect on caterpillars of the studied species, configuring itself as a potential insecticide. |
