• Terpenes and terpenoids as main bioactive compounds of essential oils, their roles in human health and potential application as natural food preservatives (2022, background): “Some botanical compounds, such as azadirachtin, carvone, menthol, ascaridol, methyl eugenol, toosendanin, and volkensin, have been shown to yield antimicrobial and antifungal properties, as well as insect pest repellent properties (Isman & Machial, 2006; Pandey et al., 2016, 2017).”
• Insecticidal Activities of Commercial Rosemary Oils (Rosmarinus officinalis.) Against Larvae of Pseudaletia unipuncta. and Trichoplusia ni. in Relation to Their Chemical Compositions (2008, background): “An emerging body of scientific literature reports the efficacy of various essential oils for use against pests of public health, stored product pests, and agricultural pests (for recent reviews, see Isman 2000, 2004; Isman & Machial, 2006).”
• Review on Concepts in Biological Control of Plant Pathogens (2014, neutral): “…unlike pyrethrum, rotenone and neem, plant essential oils or the plants from which they are obtained have been used for centuries to protect stored commodities or to repel pests from human habitations and use as fragrances, condiments or spices, as well as medicinal uses (Isman and Machial, 2006).”
• A review on prospects of essential oils as biopesticide in insect-pest management (2009, background): “Bioactivity can vary greatly because of variability in chemical composition but despite of these variabilities, certain plant species, namely thyme, oregano, basil, rosemary and mint, are consistently bioactive (Isman and Machial, 2006).”
• Phytochemical biopesticides: some recent developments (2017, background): “As evident from the literature, pest control properties of EOs have been exhaustively reviewed from time to time (Isman 1999, 2000; Isman and Machial 2006; Koul et al. 2008; Tripathi et al. 2009; Mohan et al. 2011; Jing et al. 2014; Abdel-Tawab 2016; Isman 2016).”
• Botanical insecticide as simple extractives for pest control (2017, background): “…and camphorin Eucalyptus oil were active against A. obtectus adults (Tholl, 2006), antifeedant against biting insects, insecticidal agents and prevent mosquito bite (Bakkali, Averbeck, Averbeck, & Idaomar, 2008; Batish, Singh, Kohli, & Kaur, 2008; Fradin & Day, 2002; Isman & Machial, 2006).”
• Natural Plant Products as Eco-friendly Fungicides for Plant Diseases Control- A Review (2016, background): “The mechanism of action of these compounds against fungi is not completely understood but it is supposed to be in relation to their general ability to dissolve or otherwise disrupt the integrity of fungal cell walls and cell membranes (Isman and Machial, 2006).”
• The potential of secondary metabolites in plant material as deterents against insect pests: A review (2010, background): “They are more compatible with the environmental components than synthetic pesticides (Isman and Machial, 2006).”
