Spodoptera exigua (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), an important insect pest of many field crops, has developed resistance to various insecticides, making its control increasingly difficult. This study explored the effects of senescent Leaf Melia azedarach L. (Meliaceae) and Amaranthus viridis L.
In this study, the consumption of 4-bromobenzoic acid and 4-chlorobenzoic acid by the fungus Penicillium brasilianum, an endophyte from Melia azedarach is evaluated. This fungus metabolizes these halobenzoic acids to produce three new brominated compounds, which have been isolated and characterized,
The metal contents of the soil and plant tissues in a large chromium salt-producing factory wasteland were determined to assess the properties of soil contamination and to identify plant species accumulating a range of heavy metals. Total metal contents in the factory soils presented a high
BACKGROUND
To reduce rates of synthetic insecticide applications, natural product alternatives and synergists are needed. A study has been made of the toxicity of ethanolic senescent leaf extracts (SLEs) of Jatropha gossypifolia and Melia azedarach on larvae of the noctuid pest Spodoptera
