Abstract

AbstractTo identify a more effective and safe biological control agent against a common cabbage pest, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae), the insecticidal effects of selected biological agents were evaluated. The highest insecticidal effects determined were 100, 73.5, 45.5, 47 and 55.3% using toxin HD‐1 (isolated from the Harry Dumagae strain of Bacillus thuringiensis), toxin BTS‐1 (isolated from the tenebrionis strain of B. thuringiensis), B. thuringiensis Berliner, B. thuringiensis israelensis and B. thuringiensis kurstaki, respectively.
