New Insights Into Biopesticides: Solid and Liquid Formulations of Essential Oils and Derivatives

Essential oils and derivatives have shown effective insecticidal activity against different agricultural pests. However, the use of these bioactive compounds can result in negative effects due to their high volatility and difficult handling. Both solid and liquid formulations of essential oils have...

description Essential oils and derivatives have shown effective insecticidal activity against different agricultural pests.
