Efficacy of Experimental Insecticides for Whitefly Control in Cotton, 1996

摘要

Experimental insecticides were evaluated for control of sweet potato whiteflies relative to a commercial standard in cotton. Ni-25 provided excellent whitefly control and was equivalent to the commercial standard (Knack followed by Danitol + Orthene). Fenoxycarb + pymetrozine provided goodwhitefly control but seemed to require 2 sequential applications before control was equivalent to Ni-25. Diofenolan + pymetrozine appeared to be a slightly weaker treatment, but still provided acceptable whitefly control.
