PAS_1 "Efficacy of botanicals on the management of coconut mite Aceria guerreronis (Keifer) (Acaridae: Eriophyidae)" - http://www.jbiopest.com/users/LW8/efiles/vol_8_1_13-18.pdf
PAS_2 "Efficiency of botanical pesticides against some pests infesting hydroponic cucumber, cultivated under greenhouse conditions - The extract of Annona squamosa L. (family Annonaceae), commonly known as Sita phal, and the sweetsop and custard apple have shown potentials for pest control across a large array of insect pests. Laboratory and field experiments proved that custard apple extract effectively managed different field crop pests and stored grain pests (Misra 2000). Synthetic pesticides have many drawbacks as they are persistence, develop resistance in pests, and affect non-target organisms such as natural enemies." https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s41938-019-0138-4
