INDUCING RESISTANCE OF COTTON PLANTS AGAINST BOLLWORMS INFESTATION

Abstract: Field studies were carried out on cotton plants for two years (2004 & 2005). Plants received application of five different treatments, i.e., EM (effective microorganisms), Dipel 2X (bioinsecticide), Mikrofol (foliar fertilizer), Pleo (new chemical insecticide) and Conventional Spray Program (Pestban, Sumigold and Telethon). The effect of these treatments on percentages of infestation & reduction, larval content in cotton bolls by Pectinophora gossypiella and Earias insulana. Also, % of opened bolls, seeded cotton yield, fiber quality, some biochemical components on cotton bolls and numbers of predators of bollworms were estimated.
