Effect of some plant extracts against the greater wax moth Galleria mellonella L.

The present study was carried out to evaluate the biochemical effects of four plants extracts (<em>D. stramonium</em> L., <em>Hyoscyamus muticus</em> L., <em>Nerium oleander</em> L. and <em>Eucalyptus camalulensis</em> Dehn.) on the late instar larvae...

description The present study was carried out to evaluate the biochemical effects of four plants extracts (<em>D. stramonium</em> L., <em>Hyoscyamus muticus</em> L., <em>Nerium oleander</em> L. and <em>Eucalyptus camalulensis</em> Dehn.) on the late instar larvae of the greater wax moth <em>Galleria mellonella</em> L. The results showed that treatment of <em>D. stramonium</em> L. 4% gave the maximum total mortality percentage (73.33%), while the minimum total mortality percentage was (13.33%) which recorded by N. oleander L. 4%. Biological parameters were studied under laboratory conditions, the life cycle decreased by increasing plant extract concentrations. The life cycle could be arranged in ascending order as follow: 58.33, 56.67, 62.67 and 69.00 day for the larvae treated with<em> D. stramonium</em> L. 4%, Sakran 4%, <em>E. Camalulensis</em> Dehn., and N. oleander L. 4%, respectively.
