Ovicidal activity and latent effects of lufenuron and spinosad on the Cotton leafworm, Spodoptera littoralis
Abstract: The ovicidal activity and latent toxicicity of certain actinomycetes namely Spinosad and chitin synthesis inhibitor Lufenuron were studied in the laboratory against the cotton leafwrom Spodoptera littoralis. The summarized results show that both toxicants possess a moderate ovicidal activity and toxicicty to 2"° and 4`" instars as a result to direct treatment. On the other hand both toxicants induced drastic effect on fecundity and fertility of adult moths. They also caused sever histological aberration of the ovaries and reduced the total lipid, protein and carbohydrate of the ovaries of females resulted from the treatment of pretreated as 4t' instar larvae with the two toxicants.
