Research progress of plant-derived aconitine as insecticide

In recent years, increasing attention is being given to the effective protection of the environment. The use of pesticides is a common practice in agriculture. At present, finding effective and safe pesticides is important for research in agricultural application. Botanical insecticides are environmentally friendly because of their environmental viability and easy degradation. However, there are still some problems in the development and utilization of botanical insecticides leading to a bottleneck in the process. In order to facilitate the development of botanical insecticides, this review uses aconitine as an example to summarize the research progress, the detection and analysis, and the carrier materials to optimize its usage and storage.
