In this study, botanicals extracted from two the species of family Scrophulariaceae, Verbascum
cheiranthifolium Boiss and Verbascum speciosum Schard, were examined for their effect on mortality and
progeny production against adults of Sitophilus oryzae (L.). The plant extracts were applied at five dose rates,
which 0.25,0.5,1.0,2.0 and 3% (w/v). Adults of S. oryzoe was exposed to the treated wheat at 25CC and 65%
RH and mortality was assessed after 24 h, 48 h, 7 day, 14 day and 21 day of exposure. Then all adults were
removed and the treated substrate remained at the same conditions for an additional 45 day after this interval,
the commodity was checked for progeny production. In use two extracts the mortality of adults increased with
the increase of dose and exposure interval so that; mortality was 100% after 21 days of exposure at the highest
dose rate. Results indicated that applied of V. cheiranthifolium extract was more effective than V. speciosum
against adult insects. Interestingly, in two cases complete suppression (100% reduction) of the progeny
production (Fl) was observed in the treated wheat than in control even in the lowest dose rate. Therefore, our
results indicate that these medicinal plants can be used for protection of stored grain from infestations of
stored-product insect pests.
