Management of yellow mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks) (Acari: Tarsonemidae) infesting chilli (Capsicum annum L.) in gangetic alluvial plains of West Bengal.

摘要

Fenazaquin, abamectin and clofentezine, in two different dosages, were evaluated against yellow mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus, in chilli, in the New Alluvial Region of West Bengal, India. Amongst them, abamectin (Vertimec 1.8EC), a GABA-ergic nerve poison was, found to be most suitable in both the dosages (9 g and 5 g a.i./ha), followed by fenazaquin (Magister 10EC), a METI group of chemical, at 100 g a.i./ha.
