Abstract

The present study is on the evaluation of the efficacy of selected insecticides viz., imidacloprid, acetamiprid, thiamethoxam, along with Bacillus thuringiensis and mineral oil against the citrus leaf miner Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton on rough lemon rootstock. Soil drenching 15 days prior to flush emergence and foliar application coinciding with flush emergence had been compared. The results indicated that soil application of neonicotinoid insecticides remained more effective against leaf miner larvae for longer duration as compared to foliar application. Soil application significantly induced more biomass.
