Bioefficacy of Chlorantraniliprole 4.3% + Abamectin 1.7% SC against Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) in tomato

Abstract

New formulation of Chlorantraniliprole 4.3% + Abamectin 1.7% SC was tested for bioefficacy against Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) in tomato during 2011-12 and 2012-13. Chlorantraniliprole 4.3% + Abamectin 1.7% SC @ 24, 30, 36 and 60 g a.i. ha-1 along with standard check, Chlorantraniliprole 18.5% SC @ 30 g a.i. ha-1 abamectin 1.9 EC @ 15 g a.i. ha-1 and lambda cyhalothrin 4.9 CS @ 15 g a.i. ha-1 tested against L. trifoli. Results showed that Chlorantraniliprole 4.3% + Abamectin 1.7% SC was significantly effective when sprayed twice at 15 days interval, minimized the incidence of L. trifoli and increased fruit yield.
