متن کاملRepellency of two monoterpenoids and neem oil against Callosobruchus maculatus (F.)
The repellent activity of monoterpenoids viz. eugenol, zimtaldehyde and neem oil against pulse beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) was investigated. Responses varied significantly with compound, dose and exposure time. The tested components showed highest level of repellency against C. maculatus at a dose of 1 μl. Over 80%, Class V, repellency was achieved after 5 to 60 min. treatment with th...
