This project focuses on developing bio-pesticides from saponins, natural plant compounds that can kill insect pests. It aims to identify the relationship between saponin structures and their effectiveness against specific pests.
Insect pests are very damaging to worldwide food production, and there is a great demand for new environmentally-friendly bio-pesticides.
Saponins are a structurally diverse class of naturally occurring plant defense compounds that are a promising resource for novel and more sustainable pesticides.
Due to their detergent-like properties, saponins can disrupt the cell membranes of herbivory pests, cause cell death, and ultimately kill them.
Despite the promising potential of saponins as bio-pesti…
