Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Zanthoxylum zanthoxyloides powder at 2% significantly deterred oviposition of Callosobruchus maculatus on legume seeds (87.02%).
- Intervention effect P. guineense powder at 2% significantly deterred oviposition of Callosobruchus maculatus on legume seeds (77.36%).
- Intervention effect E. aromatica powder at 2% significantly deterred oviposition of Callosobruchus maculatus on legume seeds (73%).
- Observation The maximum percentage of eggs hatched was recorded in G. max (94.71%).
- Intervention effect Egg hatch was significantly lower on C. cajan treated with P. guineense (2.33).
- Observation Ife Brown recorded significantly the lowest pest tolerance (20.83%), compared with M. pruriens (99.17%).
- Observation Percentage weight loss was significantly reduced in G. max irrespective of treatment.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that powders of Z. zanthoxyloides, P. guineense and E. aromatica are promising biopesticides for stored legume seeds.
