Chemical composition, aphicidal and antiacetylcholinesterase activities of essential oils against Aphis nerii Boyer de Fonscolombe (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Aphids are important sucking insects that attack many crops and cause huge economic loss. Essential oils have been proposed to be appropriate alternative to synthetic insecticides due to their low impact on environment and human health. In this work, the chemical compositions of eight essential oils extracted from plants growing in Egypt were determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The aphicidal activities of the isolated oils were examined against the adults of oleander aphid, Aphis nerii by a leaf-dipping assay. The inhibitory effect of essential oils on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity was also tested in vitro. Chemical an alyses showed the essential oils consisted mainly of monoterpene hydrocarbons, oxygenated monoterpenes, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons and oxygenated sesquiterpenes except the oil of Artemisia monosperma which con tained high content of benzenes. The results of toxicity assay showed that the oils of A. monosperma and Citrus sinensis were the most potent toxicants displaying LC 50 value of 0.06 mg/L. The oils of Callistemon viminals, Schinus terebinthifolius and Schinus molle were also highly effective against aphid as their LC 50 values were lower than 1 mg/L. In addition, the highest inhibitory effect on AChE was recorded by 0.5 mg/L C. sinensis with in hibition of 49.33%, while 0.1 mg/L Citrus lemon oil recorded the lowest inhibitory effect with inhibition of 0.4%.
In general, six of tested essential oils showed high toxicity against A. nerii and they might be applied in the IPM programs for this insect.
