In this study, the crude ethanolic extract leaves and branches Combretum trifoliatum , its active isolated components, apigenin camphor, Finopril were tested for their ability to control first fifth instars N. lugens. C. both allelochemicals showed insecticide potential (24 h-LC50 ~ 8.83–95.96 mg/L against each instar extract), toxicity depended on time exposure. Camphor higher efficacy (LD50 4.43 mg/L) not different compared Finopril. All plant compounds reduced carboxylesterase (CE) glutathione-s-transferase (GST) activities. caused greatest decreases CE GST activities after exposure, whereas induced slight change acetylcholinesterase activity. results present study suggest can be used as an manage populations.
