Summary: | Despite advances, few studies have correlated essential oils and tomato fruit borer,
Neoleucinodes elegantalis
(Guenée, 1854) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), a pest of several solanaceae.
Origanum majorana
L. and
Copaifera officinalis
L. stand out for causing changes in the biology and nutrition of some pests. The research aimed to study the correlation between the efficiency of these oils on the
N. elegantalis
management, their effects, and its interference in the biological parameters on the egg parasitoids
Trichogramma pretiosum
. The chemical analysis revealed that the compund in
O. majorana
oil belonged mainly to monoterpene class. While in the
C. officinalis
the oil belonged mainly to the sesquiterpenes. The LC
50
were 667.90 and 1169.71 ppm for
O. majorana
and
C. officinalis
oils, respectively.
Copaifera officinalis
affected the biological parameters of
N. elegantalis
negatively, causing lengthening of the larval development and reduction in the pre-pupal and pupal weight.
Origanum majorana
interfered with biochemical parameters of
N. elegantalis
. The oil of
C. officinalis
was selective in the management of
T. pretiosum
, not interfering with parasitism and the emmergence of adults, therefore indicated to the concept of the IPM (Integrated Pest Management), since it only affects on the pest. |
