Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Eugenol causes mortality and feeding deterrence in H. cunea larvae.
- Intervention effect Eugenol decreases larval food utilization efficiency.
- Intervention effect Eugenol significantly impairs larval digestion by inhibiting α-amylase, lipase and trypsin activities.
- Intervention effect Eugenol downregulates six digestive enzyme genes.
- Intervention effect Eugenol downregulates associated energy metabolism genes.
- Intervention effect Eugenol reduces Na+/K+-ATPase activity.
- Mechanism Eugenol's energy metabolism effects decrease ATP supply.
- Mechanism Eugenol's energy metabolism effects delay hydrolysis.
- Intervention effect Eugenol activates antioxidant enzymes.
- Intervention effect Eugenol upregulates antioxidant-related gene expression.
- Intervention effect Hydrogen peroxide and malondialdehyde contents increase despite antioxidant activation by eugenol.
- Intervention effect Eugenol impairs larval feeding on host plants.
- Observation Eugenol has low toxicity to non-target aquatic organisms.
- Recommendation Eugenol is recommended as a promising effective alternative for controlling invasive H. cunea.
