Insect growth regulatory and larvicidal activity of chalcones against Aedes albopictus

View through CrossRef
AbstractWidespread use of chemical insecticides has resulted in development of insect resistance and natural products with biological activities could become an attractive alternative to control insect pests. In order to find more effective insecticides for controlling mosquito, various mosquitocidal compounds are studied. Recently, juvenile hormone antagonists (JHANs) have been found to be to safe and effective insecticides for control of mosquito. In order to identify novel insecticidal compounds with JHAN activity, several chalcones were surveyed on their JHAN activities and larvicidal activities against Aedes albopictus larvae. Among them, 2′‐hydroxychalcone and cardamonin showed high levels of JHAN and mosquito larvicidal activities. These results suggested that chalcones with JHAN activity could be useful for control of mosquito larvae.
