Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles Synthesized from Solanum elaeagnifolium and their Effect Against Mealybugs Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley by Worood A. Gorge, Mohammed F. Abood

“…Accordingly, the study was conducted in 2023 to investigate the efficiency of the nano- extract of the seeds and leaves of the nightshade Solanum elaeagnifolium Cav loaded on magnesium, producing MgO nanoparticles and the regular alcoholic seed extract with a concentration of 5% on the relative efficiency of killing the first and third nymph instars as well as the adults of the mealybug Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley, grown on moss rose seedlings. The results showed that the highest relative efficiency in killing the insects at the first instar was 100% three days after treatment with nano seed extract, 84% at the third instar, and 75% for mealybug adults after seven days of treatment. …”
