Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Trichoderma caused 73% mortality of the aphid Aphis gossypii in laboratory bioassays on brinjal pests.
- Intervention effect Bt at its highest concentration gave results opposite to Trichoderma in the bioassays.
- Intervention effect In vivo Trichoderma caused a significant population reduction of the aphid (87%) at the highest concentration, greater than for the jassid.
- Intervention effect In vivo Trichoderma caused a population reduction of the jassid (72%) at the highest concentration, 7 days after treatment.
- Intervention effect Aphis gossypii was significantly more susceptible to the Trichoderma plus Bt mixture than the jassid and brinjal shoot and fruit borer, even after 48 h.
- Intervention effect The combined Trichoderma plus Bt application gave maximum population reduction of jassid (88%) at 7 days.
- Intervention effect The combined Trichoderma plus Bt application gave maximum population reduction of aphid (95%) at 7 days.
- Intervention effect The combined Trichoderma plus Bt application gave maximum population reduction of the brinjal shoot and fruit borer (96%) at 7 days.
- Association A positive correlation between time and concentration of the microbial treatments was observed.
- Recommendation The consortium of Trichoderma and Bt may be effective and could be incorporated in IPM programs for control of sucking and chewing insect pests of brinjal.
