Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Field parasitism was higher with Karate but did not differ significantly from other treatments.
- Intervention effect Adult parasitoid emergence did not differ significantly between control and Karate plots.
- Intervention effect Direct Karate exposure killed all adult parasitoids within a minute.
- Intervention effect Adults emerging from Karate treated pupae sometimes died during eclosion or after one day.
- Intervention effect Both neem products impaired parasitoid larval cocoon spinning.
- Recommendation The authors proposed an integrated strategy using lower neem doses or Bacillus thuringiensis with C. plutellae against P. xylostella.
