Abstract
Oxymatrine (1.2 EC @ 0.2 per cent) and spinosad (45 SC @ 225 g a.i. /ha) were found to be effective against brinjal shoot and fruit borer, Leucinodes orbonalis (Guenee.). Oxymatrine was effective at early vegetative stage. Highest per cent reduction of shoot damage was observed in oxymatrine and it is on par with spinosad Spinosad was effective at fruiting stage. Maximum per cent reduction of fruit damage was recorded in spinosad and it was on par with oxymatrine.
