مجهول. Spodoptera litura is the key pest of tobacco seedbeds in India. It is one of the major limiting factors in successful production of quality tobacco seedlings. Chlorfluazuron (Atabron 5.4 EC) @ 0.0075%, 0.015% & 0.03% was evaluated against S.litura in tobacco seed beds in a replicated experiment along with novaluron 10 EC @ 0.01%, lufenuron 5 EC @ 0.006% and emamectin benzoate 5 SG @ 0.0025% for two seasons. The results showed that emamectin benzoate @ 0.0025%, recorded the lowest seedling damage (3.3-5.91%) followed by chlorfluazuron 0.03% (4.53-7.52). The studies on persistent toxicity showed that emamectin benzoate @ 0.0025% recorded more than 90 per cent mortality up to 14 days after spray (DAS), whereas chlorfluazuron 0.03% recorded 100 per cent mortality up to 6 DAS. Studies on persistent residual toxicity to S.litura on tobacco seedlings showed that, the period of persistency was 20 days and 12 days for emamectin benzoate @ 0.0025% and chlorfluazuron @ 0.03% respectively. Chlorfluazuron 5.4% EC @ 0.03% can be used to effectively manage S.litura damage in tobacco seed beds in rotation with emamectin benzoate.
