Abstract

ABSTRACT The two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, is the worst pest for strawberries among all arthropod pests in Iran. In this study, essential oils from the flowering branches and fruits of the chinaberry, Melia azedarach L. were analysed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and the acaricidal activity of the oil was evaluated in fumigation tests against T. urticae. Forty-three constituents were identified and Methanecarbothiolic acid (10.80%), Ethyl Acetate (9.24%), 2-Propanone, 1-fluor (9.01), Acetic acid, 1-methylethyl ester (8.33%) and n-Propyl acetate (8.02%) were the main constituents The mites were susceptible to the oil using the fumigation method. The results stated that M. azedarach oil had high toxicity on eggs and adults of two-spotted spider mite (LC50 was 18.27 and 13.63 µL L−1 for eggs and adults, respectively) with LT50 of 12.05 h. In addition, all tested concentrations had oviposition deterrent activity and repellency on adults of this mite. For the practical use of this oil as a novel acaricide, however, further investigations are needed to evaluate the effects on non-target organisms and the cost-benefit ratio for the formulation of a product to be used on protected crops such as strawberry in the greenhouse condition.

苦楝精油对荨麻叶螨的杀螨活性研究

摘要：在伊朗所有节肢动物害虫中，二斑叶螨是草莓最严重的害虫。本研究采用气相色谱-质谱联用技术对苦楝（Melia azedarach L.）花枝和果实中的精油进行了分析，并对其杀虫活性进行了评价。鉴定出43种主要成分，其中甲基羧酸（10.80%）、乙酸乙酯（9.24%）、2-丙酮、1-氟（9.01）、乙酸、1-甲基乙酯（8.33%）和乙酸正丙酯（8.02%）为主要成分。结果表明，M.azedarach油对双斑蜘蛛螨的卵和成虫具有较高的毒性（卵和成虫的LC50分别为18.27和13.63µL−1），LT50为12.05 h。此外，所有测试浓度都对该螨的成虫具有产卵威慑活性和排斥性。然而，为了实际使用这种油作为一种新型杀螨剂，还需要进一步的研究来评估对非目标生物的影响，以及在温室条件下用于草莓等受保护作物的产品配方的成本效益比。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Acarology has a global readership and publishes original research and review papers on a wide variety of acarological subjects including: • mite and tick behavior • biochemistry • biology • control • ecology • evolution • morphology • physiology • systematics • taxonomy (single species descriptions are discouraged unless accompanied by additional new information on ecology, biology, systematics, etc.) All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor. If the English is not of a quality suitable for reviewers, the manuscript will be returned. If found suitable for further consideration, it will be submitted to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind.
