Yadav, Deependra Singh | Sharma, MM
A field experiment was conducted to assess the efficacy of bioagents and neem products in relation to malathion against brinjal shoot and fruit borer, Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee on brinjal. The study revealed that the bioagents and neem products were not superior to the malathion 50 EC (0.05%), however, Bacillus thuringiensis subs, kurstaki (Dipel 8L @ 2.5 ml l⁻¹ water) provided sufficient control of the pest. Nimbecidine, NSKE, NSKS and Trichogramma chilonis although were statistically superior over control, but were less effective than the malathion and Bt subs, kurstaki, in suppressing the infestation.
