要旨

In view of the rich diversity of Indian medicinal plants, it is expected that screening and scientific evaluation of plant extract for their ant deterrent substance may prove beneficial for the mankind. As the Meliaceae members are not only ethnomedicinally important ones but also agriculturally important biopesticides, due to the presence of variety of bioactive compounds, several members have been phytochemically analyzed. The present work deals with ant-deterrent analysis of Cipadessabaccifera and Aglaia roxburghiana of Meliaceae. Sugar coated fresh leaves of Cipadessabaccifera and Aglaia roxburghiana showed ant-deterrent activity. Cipadessabaccifera is more ant-deterrent than Aglaia roxburghiana.  Keywords: Biopesticide, ant-deterrent activity, Cipadessabaccifera, Aglaia roxburghianaCite this Article Christopher Patrick Kiladi S, Henry Joseph L.
