Semiochemical applications for managing the grey field slug (Deroceras reticulatum Müller), a major pest of arable crops

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 11, Page 7288-7301, November 2025.
Trends in semiochemical research highlight promising attractants and repellents for ‘push–pull’ pest control strategies of the grey field slug. Extracts from plants, predators, entomopathogenic fungi, and essential oils demonstrate potential in modifying grey field slug behaviour, inducing avoidance, antifeeding responses, or mortality, offering ...

Ovicidal Activity of Couroupita guianensis (Aubl.) against Spodoptera litura (Fab.)

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2014
Hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate extracts of Couroupita guianensis leaves were studied for ovicidal activity against S. litura. All the extracts showed ovicidal activity against S. litura. Maximum activity was noticed in hexane extract and it showed

The glutamate receptor‐like GLR2.7 modulates insect egg‐induced defense responses in Arabidopsis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 897-912, October 2025.
Summary Upon perception of insect eggs, Arabidopsis thaliana activates a generic immune response that culminates in cell death (hypersensitive‐like response (HR‐like)). While this response can subsequently impact egg survival, the molecular mechanisms are poorly understood.

Menthol and Its Derivatives: Exploring the Medical Application Potential

open access: yesEngineering in Life Sciences, Volume 25, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Menthol, a natural organic compound and the primary component of mint, exhibits diverse biological activities, including analgesic, anti‐inflammatory, antibacterial, neuroprotective, and anticancer effects. The chemical modification of menthol, through processes such as esterification and amination, further enhances these activities, expanding

THE USE OF SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE AS OVICIDE AGAINST AEDES ALBOPICTUS

open access: yesJournal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2006
We describe the ovicidal action of a 3.75% (w/v) sodium hypochlorite solution on the eggs of Aedes albopictus (Skuse). The effectiveness of this ovicide has also been confirmed by a field trial. On the basis of the data collected in the city of Bologna, Italy, we hypothesize a relationship between the numerical increase of the Ae.
