Fumigant effect of trans-anethole and carbon dioxide mixture against to Rhyzopertha dominica, Tribolium castaneum and Sitophilus oryzae

Abstract

In this study, fumigant activity of trans-anethole and carbon dioxide (CO₂) mixtures were tested against stored grain insect, Rhyzopertha dominica (Col.: Bostrichidae), Tribolium castaneum (Col.: Tenebrionidae), and Sitophilus oryzae (Col.: Curculionidae). Rhyzopertha dominica and S. oryzae were most sensitive insects to fumigant trans-anethole and CO₂. Dose-response bioassay was carried out on the R. dominica and S. oryzae. As a result, R. dominica and S. oryzae were most sensitive insects to the mixture of trans-anethole and CO₂. Moreover, mixture of trans-anethole and CO₂ (1.5 ml/l + 60% CO₂) caused rapid mortality (100%) at the end of the 24 h gave 100% mortality for all insects. LC₅₀ values of trans-anethole were calculated 1.414 ml/l and 1.272 ml/l for the S. oryzae and R. dominica, respectively. These results indicate that the mixtures of trans-anethole and CO₂ have a great potential as a fumigant in the management of R. dominica, S. oryzae, and T. castaneum.

Trans-anethole ve karbondioksit karışımının Rhyzopertha dominica, Tribolium castaneum ve Sitophilus oryzae’ye karşı fümigant etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışmada depolanmış hububat zararlısı olan Rhyzopertha dominica (Col.: Bostrichidea), Tribolium castaneum (Col.: Tenebrionidae) ve Sitophilus oryzae (Col.: Curculionidae)’ye karşı farklı oranlarda karışım halinde hazırlanan trans-anethole ve karbondioksit (CO₂) karışımlarının etkisi araştırılmıştır. Doz-etki denemeleri, ümit var sonuçların alındığı R. dominica ve S. oryzae’ye karşı yürütülmüştür. Denemeler sonucunda trans-anethole ve CO₂ karışımının %60 orantılı nem, 25 ^oC sıcaklık ve 24 saat süre sonunda R. dominica, T. castaneum ve S. oryzae için mutlak ölümü sağlayan dozun 1.5 ml/l trans-anethole ile %60 CO₂ karışımı olduğu belirlenmiştir. Doz etki denemelerinde trans-anethol’ün LC₅₀ değeri S. oryzae için 1.414 ml/l olurken, R. dominica için 1.272 ml/l olarak hesaplanmıştır. Çalışma sonuçları trans-anethole ve CO₂ karışımının R. dominica, S. oryzae ve T. castaneum’un mücadelesinde potansiyel bir fümigant etkisi olduğunu göstermiştir.
