Abstract
AbstractTobacco budworm eggs, deposited on cotton plants (Gossypium hirsutum L.) treated with fenoxycarb, do not produce viable larvae. The insects die either at the end of embryonic development or during 1st‐2nd larval instars, even when the larvae hatching on the treated leaves are transferred to untreated plants. This ovo‐larvicidal activity and indications of good foliar persistence make fenoxycarb a promising candidate for the control of tobacco budworm on cotton. This type of application could open new aspects for the control of lepidopterous pests with this novel compound.
