Control of coffee berry borer, Hypothenemus hampei (Ferrari) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) with botanical insecticides and mineral oils. Acta Scientiarum. Agronomy, Maringá, v. 38, n. 1, p. 1-8, jan./mar. 2016.1807-8621http://dx.doi.org/10.4025/actasciagron.v38i1.27430http://www.sbicafe.ufv.br/handle/123456789/11130The objective of this study was to evaluate botanical oils, mineral oils and an insecticide that contained azadirachtin (ICA) for the control of Hypothenemus hampei, in addition to the effects of residual castor oil. We evaluated the effectiveness of the vegetable oils of canola, sunflower, corn, soybean and castor, two mineral oils (assist ® and naturol ® ), and the ICA for the control of H. hampei. The compounds were tested at a concentration of 3.0% (v v-1 ). The median lethal concentration (LC 50 ) was estimated with Probit analysis. The oil of castor bean and extract of castor bean cake were also evaluated at concentrations of 3.0% (v v -1 ) and 3.0% (m v-1 ), respectively. The mortality rates for H. hampei caused by the ICA and the castor oil were 40.8 and 53.7%, with LC 50 values of 6.71 and 3.49% (v v-1 ), respectively. In the castor oil, the methyl esters of the fatty acids were palmitic (1.10%), linoleic (4.50%), oleic (4.02%), stearic (0.50%) and ricinoleic acids (88.04%). The extract of the castor bean cake was not toxic to H. hampei. The persistence of the castor oil in the environment was low, and the cause of mortality for H. hampei was most likely the blockage of the spiracles, which prevented the insects from breathing.O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar inseticidas botânicos, óleos minerais e o inseticida contendo azadiractina (ICA) no controle de Hypothenemus hampei, bem como o poder residual do óleo de mamona. Para isso foram utilizados os óleos vegetais de canola, girassol, milho, soja e mamona, os óleos minerais assist ® e naturol ® e o ICA, testados na concentração de 3,0% (v v-1 ). A concentração letal média (CL 50 ) foi estimada usando a análise de Probit. O óleo e o extrato da torta de mamona foram avaliados na concentração de 3,0% (v v -1 ) e 3,0% (m v-1 ), respectivamente. O ICA e o óleo de mamona causaram 40,8 e 53,7% de mortalidade de H. hampei, e apresentaram CL 50 de 6,71 e 3,49% (v v-1 ), respectivamente. No óleo de mamona foram identificados os ésteres metílicos dos ácidos graxos: palmítico (1,10%), linoleico (4,50%), oleico (4,02%), esteárico (0,50%) e ricinoleico (88,04%). O extrato da torta da semente de mamona não apresentou toxicidade sobre H. hampei. O óleo de mamona apresentou baixa persistência no ambiente. O óleo de mamona causou a mortalidade de H. hampei, sendo provavelmente devido ao bloqueio dos espiráculos, impedindo a respiração desse inseto.pdfenOpen AccessRicinus communisAzadirachta indicaConcentração letal médiaÁcidos graxosToxicidadeCafeicultura::Pragas, doenças e plantas daninhasArtigo
