ABSTRACT
The essential oil of
Artemisia annua
L
.,
a weed collected from northern Iran, was studied for its toxicity and physiological
aspects on 4th instar larva of the cotton bollworm
Helicoverpa armigera
Hübner in controlled conditions (26±1°C, 65±10% RH and 16 L :
: 8 D h). The artificial diet was used as a medium for investigating the toxicity and the effect of LC
10
,
LC
30
,
LC
50
, and
LC
90
on the feed-
ing efficiency of 4th instar larva. The essential oil in doses of LC
10
,
LC
30
,
LC
50
, and
LC
90
were estimated to be 2.01%, 3.86%, 6.07%, and
18.34%, respectively. The activity of α-amylase, protease, lipase, general esterases, and glutathione S-transferase and protein, triglyceride, glucose for treated larva were measured. The results showed that all of these parameters were decreased compared with the
control. Hence,
A. annua
essential oil
is
suggested as a botanical for controlling this important pest of field crops.
