•Wide use of botanical insecticides is limited by the availability of certain plants. •Studies are needed to improve RNAi efficiency and to assess their safety risk. •Microbial insecticides are promising, but they only control a narrow range of pests. •Multitarget approach should be a promising strategy in future pest control. •Nanoformulation could enhance stability and control the release of bioinsecticides. Bioinsecticides are naturally-occurring substances from different sources that control insect pests. Ideal bioinsecticides should have low toxicity to non-target organisms. They should also be easily degraded in sewage treatment works and natural environments, highly effective in small quantities and affect target pests only. Public concerns about possible side-effects of synthetic pesticides have accelerated bioinsecticide research and development. However, to develop bioinsecticides into mainstream products, their high production costs, short shelf-life and often uncertain modes of action need to be considered. This review summarizes current progress on bioinsecticides which are categorized as biochemical insecticides and their derivatives, plant-incorporated protectants, and microbial bioinsecticides. The current constraints that prevent bioinsecticides from being widely used are discussed and future research directions are proposed. |
