摘要：The acute toxicity of Spinosad, NSKE, horticultural mineral oil and entomopathogens at
the recommended concentration was evaluated against pomegranate sucking pests like
thrips, Scirtothrips dorsalis Hood, whitefly, Siphoninus phillyreae Haliday, two tailed
mealy bug, Ferrisia virgata (Cockerell). The study revealed that among all treatments,
spinosad 45% SC (0.0125%) were showing more mortality in thrips (53.33%), whitefly
(55.55%) and mealy bugs (48.88%) followed by NSKE (5%) thrips (43.33%), whitefly
(45.55%) and mealy bugs (42.22%). Azadirachtin 10000 ppm (0.02%) at 48 hours after
treatment showed more percent mortality in thrips (40.83%), whitefly (41.11%) and
mealy bugs (39.99%) respectively.
