Abstract

A field experiment was conducted on mungbean to evaluate certain selective insecticidal molecules, viz., imidacloprid, dimethoate + triazophos, thiamethoxam, neem oil, dimethoate, oxy-demeton methyl, triazophos and NSKE against the field populations of B. tabaci, during Zaid and Kharif season of the year 2014. The results indicated that imidacloprid showed higher efficacy against B. tabaci in reducing pest population followed by dimethoate + triazophos. Triazophos and NSKE were found to be least effective.
