Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the compatibility and toxicity of mixtures of synthetic (growth regulators) and botanical limonoid-based insecticides for managing Spodoptera frugiperda, a significant pest.
- Results showed that mixing the insecticides reduced the mixture's pH and increased electrical conductivity, but the mixtures remained stable and compatible, similar to distilled water.
- Laboratory and field tests indicated that combining certain synthetic insecticides with botanical formulations, particularly with Azamax or Azact CE, enhanced toxicity against S. frugiperda and effectively reduced crop damage, highlighting their potential in pest management strategies.
This study aimed to characterize the quantitative and qualitative damage caused by Deois flexuosa (Walker) (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) adults in Axonopus catharinensis cv. SCS 315 Catarina and Cynodon dactylon (Tifton 85 and Jiggs cultivars) under different infestation densities and, consequently, the expression of tolerance-type resistance. For this purpose, potted plants were infested with different insect densities (0, 5, 10, 20, and 40 adults m).
