| Abstract: | Antifeedant activities of the isolated chemical compounds from Ajuga nipponensis, were studied against adult of striped leaf beetles. The methanol, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol extracts at 1.0 mg/ml, were used in this study. All four extracts exhibited more than 65 antifeedant index at 24 h
and ethyl acetate extract showed significant activity against striped leaf beetles with 83.12 antifeedant index. Six compounds
and one fraction were isolated by chromatography and their structures were identified by NMR, MS and FTIR spectra. At 2.0 mg/ml
for 24 h the three compounds 20-hydroxyecdysone, acacetin and apigenin showed considerable activities with antifeedant indexes
59.29, 51.22 and 61.55, respectively. In contrast to this the antifeedant indexes of acacetin and apigenin, were sharply reduced
as the time extended and that of 20-hydroxyecdysone remained unchanged. In addition, the synergistic effects of two mixtures
of secondary metabolites, were studied and no sharp difference was observed. |
