Abstract

The plant extract showed modest efficacy at doses of 10µg/ml and 100µg/ml. The phytotoxic effects of the plant rose with concentration; it was moderate (49.64%) at 10µg/ml and moderate (56.66%) at 100µg/ml, although it was higher than at 10µg/ml. However, at a concentration of 1000µg/ml, Anthemis cotula had a significant (70.82%) impact against Lemna minor. The extract exhibited modest activity against Tribolium castaneum, moderate activity against Callosobruchus analis and Sitophilus oryzae, and high activity against Trogoderma granarium.
