"Alcoholic extracts of Lasiosiphon have been reported to contain active secondary metabolites like Coumarins [3, 4, 5, 6]. Hence, HPTLC analysis of methanolic extract, in coumarin specific mobile phase was carried out, which suggested the presence of Coumarin (Figure 2). Coumarins are known to be antimicrobial [8]. Moreover, analysis has revealed that as compared to leaf, bark has less Coumarin content. Therefore, it can be concluded that Coumarin must have been the secondary metabolite responsible for the antimicrobial activity."

"Evaluation of the tobacco plant as botanical pesticide [1994] - The effectivity of tobacco spray and tobacco leaf dust against insect pests of tomato, cowpea, mungo, eggplant, garlic and corn under field conditions was evaluated. Tobacco aqueous spray was prepared from ground tobacco leaves at 1:10 tobacco: water ratio. Ground tobacco leaves were used as powder dust. Water alone and two standard insecticides, Lannate and Decis, were used as controls. Treatments were applied at 10 days interval. Tobacco spray was effective against beanfly and bean aphid with a population reduction of 89 percent and 97 percent, respectively. Tobacco dust was effective against tomato cutworm and beanfly reducing their populations by 89 percent and 79 percent, respectively. Leafhopper, thrips and corn earworm were reduced by 50-69 percent using either tobacco spray or dust. Corn and tomato yields from plots sprayed with tobacco extracts amd cowpea yield from dusted plots were comparable to those sprayed with the check insecticides." https://agris.fao.org/agris-search/search.do?recordID=PH9610779 |

"In India, Parmar et al. (2015) recommended two applications of profenophos 50EC at 0.05% or fenobucarb 50EC at 0.1%, first spraying at 20 DAE and the second at 40 DAE, for controlling shoot fly and stem borer in pearl millet. Earlier, the IPM module for pearl millet suggested by Kishore and Barman (2003) consisted of seed treatment with imidacloprid 70WS at 5 g/kg, followed by spraying of NO (5%) at 30 DAE and dusting of endosulfan 4% dust at 10 kg/ha at 50% flowering. Sasmal (2015) screened 33 entries of finger millet in India against sap-sucking pests and stem borer. There were 12 entries with no infestation of shoot aphid, Hysteroneurasetariae (Thomas) versus 4.6% on susceptible cv. GPU-45, and there was a 0% grasshopper feeding level on leaves and <2.3% on panicles due to the grasshopper ColemaniasphenarioidesBol in 8 entries versus 11.2% on panicle in cv. GPU-91. The incidence of DH plants caused by the stem borer S. inferens in 18 of 33 entries was <1.0% versus 20.1% in cv. GPU-93. Overall, two cvs.VL-353 and GPU-88 were promising and were included in a breeding program. Predaceous spiders were abundant on the susceptible cvs. GPU-45, GPU-95. By planting susceptible cvs., the survival and spider number would increase and help in pest mortality, and natural pest control may be possible." https://academic.oup.com/jipm/article/10/1/28/5569990 |
