Brinjal shoot and fruit borer, Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee is a major pest of brinjal or eggplant which is an important and popular vegetable grown in India. Continuous and indiscriminate use of synthetic insecticides resulted in resistance development to these insecticides which reflected on the reliability of efficacy of these insecticides. To overcome this problem testing of new molecules are needed for obtaining effective control of these pests. Hence, the present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of some new insecticides for effective control of these insects.
