Evaluation of effectiveness and bioassay of insecticide residues of chlorfenapyr(ac303 630) against Thrips palmi Karny(Thysanoptera ; Thripidae) under laboratory and vinyl house conditions

The insecticidal activities and residues of chlorfenapyr [4-bromo-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-ethoxymethyl-5-trifluorornethyl pyrrole-3-carbonitrile] against Thrips palmi was evaluated under laboratory and vinyl house conditions. Effectiveness of chlorfenapyr against T. palmi on red pepper leaves was lasted for 9 days at a concentration of 50 ppm but there was no significant differences between emulsifiable concentration and wettable granule under laboratory conditions. In vinyl house, high toxicity was investigated at 6 hours after application of chlorfenapyr in a concentration of 50 and 100 ppm and insecticidal effect was maintained for 11days after 2 times weekly application in cucumber. Control effect was above 97% against T. palmi larva and larva+adults after 2 times weekly application in vinyl house.
