EVALUATION OF FURNACE OIL AND NEEM BASED PRODUCTS TO MANAGE BEMISIA TABACI AND LEAF CURL VIRUS ON COTTON

M. ASLAM KHAN, M. AFZAAL AND M. A. NASIR

Abstract: Nimbokil applied at 3 % concentration was found most effective in reducing egg hatchability, adult emergence, whitefly population and CLCuV severity on S-14 and NIAB-Krishma, respectively. Furnace oil applied at 2 and 3 % concentration was also effective in controlling Bemisia tabaci and CLCuV compared to untreated control. However, Nimbokil at 0.5 and 1 % and furnace oil at 1 and 2 % concentrations were statistically at par in reducing white fly population and CLCuV severity on both the cultivars.
