Abstract

Evaluation of Two Insect Growth Regulator Activities on Egg and Larvae of Earias insulana (Boisd.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Highlights

  • Cotton considerable one of the major economic crops in Egypt, throughout the cotton growing season, attacking by different dangerous insect pests

  • Insects: Spiny Bollworm (SBW), Earias insulana (Boisd.): The culture of E. insulana, eggs, and larvae used in the current experiment was obtained at Bollworms Research Department, Plant Protection Research Institute, reared on an artificial diet that was described by Amer (2015) for several generations away from any contamination with insecticides

  • Biochemical Analyses: Samples Preparation for Biochemical Assay: Samples of E. insulana larvae resulted from eggs treated by LC25 of Triflumuron and Hexaflumuron tested were collected after 14 days from different treatments to study the latent effects of tested compounds in full-grown larvae were centrifuged at 5000 r.p. min. at 5Co in a refrigerated centrifuge
