Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Heat shocked tomato leaves contained 18 detected molecules versus 11 in controls.
- Observation Thirteen compounds were detected only in heat shocked tomato extracts.
- Intervention effect Heat shocked tomato extract caused 100% rice weevil mortality compared with 60% for control extract at 5000 ppm on day 1.
- Association Weevil mortality correlated positively with extract concentration (R 2 = 0.95).
- Intervention effect At one day postexposure, the heat shocked extract had lower LC50 than control extract.
- Intervention effect At two days postexposure, the heat shocked extract had lower LC50 than control extract.
- Mechanism The authors attributed insecticidal activity to methyl ketones and phthalic acid esters.
- Recommendation The authors propose both extracts as substitutes for insecticides against the rice weevil.
