Sixteen compounds predominated by monoterpenes were identified. The major compounds were Eucalyptol (28.36%), α-Terpineol (25.99%), γ-Terpinene (15.24%), α-Pinene (5.08%), 1H-Cyclopropa[a]naphthalene (4.25%) and 1, 3, 6, 10-Dodeeatetraene (3.74%). Percentage mortality due to fumigant toxicity was dose- and exposure period-dependent. One hour after treatment (HAT), application of L. adoensis leaf EO at 107 μL· L^-1 air caused significantly (p〈0.05) higher mortality (50.00%) than 0.00% mortality observed at 0-53 μL· L^-1 air, but not significantly (p〉0.05) different from 22.50% observed in 80 μL· L^-1 air. At 3 HAT, application ofL. adoensis EO at 80 μL· L^-1 air caused significantly higher mortality (90.00 %) than mortality observed at 0 μL· L^-1 air. At 6 HAT, application of L. adoensis EO at 53-107 μL· L^-1 air caused significantly higher mortality (100.00 %) than that was observed in the control. The same trend was observed at 12 HAT where 100 % mortality observed in 27-107 μL· L^-1 air was significantly greater than 13.33 % observed in the control. At 3 HAT, percentage repellence was significantly (p〈0.05) affected by doses. Application of EO at 10-30 μL· cm^2 caused class V repellence (86.67%-100%) compared with the control which caused class I repellence (0-20%).展开更多
