An area of about one faddan (about 4200 m2) was cultivated by cantaloupe seed (variety, Egyptian Galia Melon). N. californicus individuals were released in each predator’s area, once in the first half plots and twice in the second half plots (at two weeks intervals), at the rate of 3, 6 and 9 individuals/2plants in the first and second three treatments of once and twice releases, respectively. A single release of N. californicus provides low reduction for the red spider mites, T. urticae. This unlikely those obtained from the double release which provides preferable results on controlling the red spider mite, T. urticae. On the other hand, one release of the predatory mite, N. californicus with the medium rate (6 predators/ 2 plants) or low rate (3 predators’ 2 plants), as well as releasing the predator two releases with the low rate resulted in low mite reduction. In conclusion, under the open field conditions, our results showed a preference for utilizing multiple releases of the predatory mite, N. californicus to regulate the populations of T. urticae. Either moderating reduction or not prevent T. urticae from exceeding the economic threshold level.","PeriodicalId":11401,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Academic Journal of Biological Sciences, F.

(Coleoptera- Tenebrionidae). Also, the effect of gamma irradiation on both of the Quinones secretion and the microflora associated with the pest stages was investigated. The results showed that the incremental of adult and larval mortality percentages were significant (P <0.05) affected by an increment of gamma irradiation dose. The results of Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry patterns exhibited a strong inhibitory effect of irradiation on Quinones secreted by both stages. The used doses succeed in reducing the count of microflora were associated with both larval and adult stages. This reduction reached zero for fungi and bacteria isolated from the surface at the dose 1000 Gy. Obtained data suggested that the irradiation of red flour beetles with 1000 Gy is a promising tool for the control of this destructive pest and prevent its harmful effects associated with its infestation.","PeriodicalId":11401,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Academic Journal of Biological Sciences, F.

However, the environment-friendly methods without unwanted side effects of these chemicals are becoming very important in modern pest management strategies. Natural products including plant ethanolic extracts and essential oils are some of the alternative approaches in pest control. The essential oils were extracted and their chemical composition was identified using a GC/MS spectrometer. Therefore, the present study was designed to evaluate the antioxidant activity of various extracts of sage and thyme plants by 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazil (DPPH) method. The obtained results revealed that concentrations at 25, 50, 100 and 200µg/ml of essential oils and ethanolic extract from both plants were more efficient in scavenging free radicals after 30 min when compared with butyl hydroxyl toluene(BHT) as synthetic standard. The concentrations 100 and 200µg/mL from ethanolic and essential oils were having higher activity than other extracts and standard .Furthermore, Sage and thyme extracts were investigated for their toxicity against cotton leafworm, S. littoralis in the laboratory, the percentages of cumulative mortality of larvae as well as the latent effects of the 4th instar of S. littoralis four concentrations (25, 50, 100 and 200 µg/mL) were applied. It was found that ethanolic extract of two plants was more efficient than essential oils on different stages of S. littoralis. The results showed that there were highly significant differences between all treatments and control some biological aspects.","PeriodicalId":11401,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Academic Journal of Biological Sciences, F.
