The toxicity of phenolic compounds to some plants in the cumulative loss of the adult stages of domestic flies. Musca domestica (Diptera:Muscidae)

Abstract

The toxicity of phenolic compounds derived from Citrulls colocynthis, Rubus sanctus, and Lycium barbarum was tested in some aspects of the domestic fly. The results showed that the extract of phenolic compounds of al-Hantal plant achieved the highest percentage of eggs loss of 85.44% in the concentration of 20 mg / ml followed by the extract of the plant of the grouper with a loss of 76.44% and finally the blackberry plant with a loss of 63.94% with the same concentration compared to the control of 18.43 and 16.60 14.76% for the plants listed respectively. As for the effect of the phenolic extract on the destruction of the three larval stages, the effect was clear. The highest mortality rates for larval stages were achieved by exposure to the phenolic extract of all plants and in the concentration of 20 mg / ml.
