Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Palpita quadristigmalis caused severe defoliation and branch dieback of privet in northeastern Mexico.
- Intervention effect Larval mortality increased with increasing Bt concentration.
- Intervention effect Larval foliage consumption decreased with increasing Bt concentration.
- Observation At 48 hours, mortality among Bt-exposed larvae was 65.0-97.5%.
- Intervention effect Bt-exposed larvae consumed at most 2.5% of foliar area compared with unexposed larvae.
- Observation Overall, 1.7 % of larvae were parasitized.
- Observation Ichneumonidae comprised 12.5% of the parasitoids.
- Observation Tachinidae comprised 62.5% of the parasitoids.
- Intervention effect Bt apparently had no negative effect on natural larval parasitoids.
- Recommendation The authors consider Bt-based products promising for managing P. quadristigmalis larvae.
