Abstract: |
With an objective to test the efficacy of plant materials to soybean hairy caterpillar (Spilarctina casigneta Kollar), an experiment was conducted at Entomology laboratory in the spring of 2001. A total of seven different types of plants such as titepati (Artemisia vulgaris L.), asuro (Adhatoda vasica L.), garlic (Allium sativum L.), bakaino (Melia azedarach L.), peach (Prunus persica L.), sisnu (Urtica dioca L.) and khirro (Sapium insigne) were tasted. Leaf was used in all the cases as suitable plant parts for the extraction of the active ingredients. The result indicated that all the plant materials posses some sorts of anti-feedant effects to the larval development however, the bakaino (Melia azedarach L) was found to be significantly effective (P= <0.01) for its inhibition effect to the larval development into the subsequent pupae. However, the difference among other treatments for larval moulting was not significantly different. The result proved the possibility of using plant extracts in managing the aerial feeding pests indicating the ample opportunity of integrating them into the development of organic pest management. |
