Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect The Ricinus communis extract plus Coccinella septempunctata reduced aphid egg density to 2.0 by week 5, versus 15.0 with imidacloprid.
- Intervention effect Ricinus communis extract plus Hippodamia convergens reduced aphid egg density to 3.9 by week 5, versus 15.0 with imidacloprid.
- Intervention effect Ricinus communis extract plus Coccinella septempunctata lowered aphid motile stages to 10 versus 45 with imidacloprid.
- Intervention effect Ricinus communis extract plus Hippodamia convergens lowered aphid motile stages to 15 versus 45 with imidacloprid.
- Observation Nicotiana glauca combinations had moderate efficacy while single treatments were less consistent.
- Intervention effect Botanical extracts did not affect ladybird establishment.
- Intervention effect Coccinella septempunctata reached 10.2 motile stages under RC + CS versus 8.7 under CS alone.
- Observation Hippodamia convergens reached 10.0 motile stages per three leaves per plant under RC + HC.
- Intervention effect RC + HC produced a plant visual score of 9.35, above the 8.25 imidacloprid score.
- Recommendation The authors propose extract and ladybird combinations as an alternative to imidacloprid for aphid control.
- Recommendation The authors recommend field trials and timing optimization for faba-bean IPM.
