The invention focuses on the isolation of these biopesticide compositions and formulations that are known to possess pesticidal properties and are derived from natural sources having biological origin. The invention more particularly de scribes the isolation and characterization, including but not confined to, novel biopesticide compositions possessing pesticidal at tributes along with other pharmaceutically important attributes so as to also function as effective biocontrol agents. Field of Invention This invention relates generally to the field of compositions and methods for controlling of pests and pest populations which are known to be having a detrimental effect on human life and human activities. The invention focuses on the isolation of these biopesticide compositions and formulations that are known to possess pesticidal properties and are derived from natural sources having biological origin. The invention more particularly describes the isolation and characterization, including but not confined to, novel biopesticide compositions possessing pesticidal attributes along with other pharmaceuticallyimportant attributes so as to also function as effective biocontrol agents. Background of Invention There is a large amount of activity in the general field of biopesticides derived from natural sources and having an essentially biological origin and their possible exploitation in the field of biocontrol. The prior art is flooded with a large number of patented inventions and technical literature on the subject in question. The genus Eucalyptus of family (Myrtaceae) owing to the presence of pharmacologically important oils and compounds as well as substances which have known pesticidal and biocontrol attributes has attracted interest of scientific community to investigate the nature, working mechanism and chemistry of these compounds. The genus Eucalyptus (Family Myrtaceae) shows a fairly large distribution in several regions of the world, with about 300 species being known. It is a native of Australian region, however the distribution today is fairly broad to several parts of Europe, South Africa, Northern Africa, America and even tropical countries like India. The Eucalyptus tree has its origin in Australia. Eucalyptus leaves and its oil have been traditionally used as Aboriginal cure for a wide range of diseases. Presently the £tvca/ypftvs*extracts are extensively used across the globe in pills, liquids, inhalers and ointments as a cure for several ailments that are general in nature.

Presently the £uca/ypfus*extracts are extensively used across the globe in pills, liquids, inhalers and ointments as a cure for several ailments that are general in nature. It is a well known fact today that, plants are subject to attack by a great number of pests. These pests can be, for example, bacteria, fungi, or nematodes. Pesticidal compounds have long been used to increase yields and extend agricultural production capabilities into new areas. They have also been extremely important tools for ameliorating season-to-season differences in yield and quality caused by weather-driven variations in pest pressure. The aspect of the longstanding global demand for new, effective, environmentally friendly, and safe means to control pests that damage agriculture or serve as disease vectors is not new to the world today. As per one of the recent reports, in US alone the agriculture costs incurred by pests exceed billions of dollars annually in decreased crop yields, reduced crop quality, increased harvesting costs, pesticide application costs, and negative'ecological impact. In addition to agriculture pests, many blood-feeding insects and cockroaches are vectors for pathogenic microorganisms that threaten human and animal health, or are annoying at the least. As in the case of agriculture pests, direct and intangible costs incurred by blood-feeding and household pests concern pesticide safety hazards to humans and animals, bioaccumulation and environmental incompatibility, and synthesis and application costs. It is also common knowledge today that almost all field crops, nursery and horticulture plants, and commercial farming areas are susceptible to attack by one or more pests. The notable examples that cduld be cited are inclusive of the particularly problematic Coleopteran and Lepidopteran pests. A n example of a Lepidopteran pest is the hornworm larva of Manduca sexta, and an example of a Coleopteran pest is the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata Vegetable and cole crops, lentils, leafy vegetables, melons, peppers, potatoes and related tubers, tomatoes, cucumbers and related vine crops, as well as a variety of spices are sensitive to infestation by one or more pests including loopers, armyworms, moth larvae, bud webworms, earworms, leafeaters, «worms, borers, cloverworms, melonworms, leafrollers, various caterpillars, fruitworms, homworms, and pinworms. Likewise, pasture and hay crops such as alfalfa, pasture and forage grasses and silage are often attacked by a variety of pests including armyworms, alfalfa caterpillars, European skipper, a variety of loopers

Biopesticides: State of the Art and Future Opportunities Abstract The use of biopesticides and related alternative management products is increasing. New tools, including semiochemicals and plant-incorporated protectants (PIPs), as well as botanical and microbially derived chemicals, are playing an increasing role in pest management, along with plant and animal genetics, biological control, cultural methods, and newer synthetics. The og al of this Perspective is to highlight promising new biopesticide research and development (R&D), based upon recently published work and that presented in the American Chemical Society (ACS) symposium “Biopesticides: State of the Art and Future Opportunities,” as well as the authors’ own perspectives. Although the focus is on biopesticides, included in this Perspective is progress with products exhibiting similar characteristics, namely those naturally occurring or derived from natural products.

  • Metarhizium Anisopliae Strain F52 (029056) Biopesticide Fact Sheet
    Metarhizium anisopliae strain F52 (029056) Biopesticide Fact Sheet Summary Metarhizium anisopliae strain F52 is a fungus that infects insects, primarily beetle larvae. It has been approved as a microbial pesticide active ingredient for non-food use in greenhouses and nurseries, and at limited outdoor sites not near bodies of water. Many strains of Metarhizium anisopliae have been isolated worldwide from insects, nematodes, soil, river sediments, and decomposing organic material. No harm is expected to humans or the environment when pesticide products containing Metarhizium anisopliae strain F52 are used according to label instructions. I. Description of the Active Ingredient The fungus Metarhizium anisopliae strain F52 infects insects that come in contact with it. Once the fungus spores attach to the outer surface of the insect, they germinate and begin to grow. After penetrating the outside skeleton of the insect, they grow rapidly inside the insect, causing the insect to die. Insects that come in contact with infected insects also become infected. Metarhizium anisopliae strain F52 can infect larvae and adults of many insects, but can infect only beetle larvae because the adults have a strong outer skeleton. II. Use Sites, Target Pests, and Application Methods o Use Sites: Terrestrial non-food sites, including ornamentals in greenhouses; nurseries, residential and institutional lawns; landscape perimeters. Not for use where water might become contaminated. o Target Pests: Various ticks and beetles; root weevils, flies, gnats, thrips. o Application Methods: Spray; incorporate in growth media III. Assessing Risks to Human Health No harm is expected to humans from exposure to Metarhizium anisopliae strain F52 by ingesting, inhaling, or touching products containing this active ingredient.
