ABSTRACT

Introduction: The use of plants as insecticides may be an alternative to many synthetic products because their toxicity to animals is low and they are easily biodegradable in the environment. The species Lantana montevidensis (Spreng.) Briq. (Verbenaceae), chumbinho, is a subshrub rich in secondary metabolites it uses for its own defence. The experimental model for Drosophila melanogaster has been used in several types of studies. Some of its advantages are its easy management and its fast rate of reproduction.
Objective: Evaluate the chemical composition and insecticidal effect of the essential oil (EO) of L. montevidensis against D. melanogaster.
Method: EO of dry leaves from Crato-CE, Brazil, was extracted by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC/EMS to identify its constituents. As part of the test, evaluation was conducted or the mortality and negative geotaxis of the flies, to attain which they were exposed to different concentrations of the EO (3-30.5 μg/mL essential oil/air). A total 20 adult flies were subjected to cold diapause and placed in 300 mL bottles with filter paper in their lower section impregnated with 1 mL of 20 % saccharose in distilled water. Filter paper was also attached to the upper section (lid) to apply the test product OELM. Readings were taken every 3, 6, 12 and 24 h.
Results: Results showed that the principal components of the EO are ?- caryophyllene (34.96 %), germacrene D (25.49 %) and bicyclogermacrene (9.78 %). In the insecticide test there was a CL50 for the concentration of 15.14 μg/ml in 3 h exposure, and significant damage to the locomotor system of the flies.
Conclusion: The study provides evidence that the EO analyzed is a potential biopesticide.
