Abstract
Abstract Results of field experiments revealed that three releases of biocontrol agents viz., Trichogramma chilonis (1,000,000/ha/release) and Brinckochrysa scelestes (50,000/ha/release) on 90, 105 and 120 days after sowing could effectively check the population of Heliothis armigera and Bemisia tabaci which was equal to that of insecticides. Two applications of nuclear polyhedrosis virus of Spodoptera litura at 250 larval equivalents (LE)/ha with adjuvants could effectively control S. litura larval population and damage. The seed cotton yield could also be increased in biocontrol plots which was equal to that of insecticide treated plots. Zusammenfassung Versuche zur biologischen Bekämpfung der bedeutsamsten Baumwollschädlinge in Indien Durch Freilanduntersuchungen konnte gezeigt werden, daß durch dreimalige Freilassung von Trichogramma chilonis (1.000.000/ha/Freilassungszeitpunkt) und Brickochrysa scelestes (50.000/ha/Freilassungszeitpunkt) jeweils am 90., 105. und 120. Tag nach der Baumwollsaat bei der Bekämpfung von Heliothis armigera und Bemisia tabaci ein Erfolg erzielt werden konnte, der der Wirksamkeit einer Insektizidbehandlung entsprach. Durch zwei Behandlungen mit Kernpolyederviren von Spodoptera litura in einer Konzentration von 250 Larvenäquivalenten (LE)/ha mit Zusätzen konnte S. litura wirksam bekämpft werden. Der Ernteerfolg auf den biologisch behandelten Baumwollfeldern war vergleichbar mit dem auf den insektizid‐behandelten Feldern.
