| Abstract | ||||
| The Effects of clove, Syzygium aromaticum essential-oil against spider-mite Tetranychus urticae, Koch was estimated in lab and semi-field conditions. Treated adult-females conducted by different concentrations of clove essential oil (eugenol) concentrations using spraying method for 1, 3 and 7 days. Mortality was measured upon treatment with three concentrations of 0.25, 0.50 and 1.0% V/V. Female mortality increasing with increasing concentrations and LC50 value was calculated. Moreover, all the tested concentrations of the essential oil were significant. The effect of LC50 of eugenol on the neuronal-enzymes acetylcholine-esterase “AchE” and alkaline-phosphatase “ALP” of spider-mites were investigated on 24 hours and 3 days post-treatment. The obtained data resulted the activity of “AchE” and “ALP” showed decreasing after treatment on 24 hours by clove-oil while, “ALP” showed increasing on 3-days post-treatment. The evaluation of clove essential oil effect in semi-field condition on “T. urticae”, results indicated that it gave satisfying results whereas 92 % population reduction respectively. Finally, we can conclude that clove essential oil was achieved good results to control this spider mites. | ||||
