Abstract
Toxaphene + DDT, methyl parathion + DDT, and toxaphene + DDT + methyl parathion sprays applied early and late in the cotton season provided adequate control of the boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis Boheman, and the bollworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie), during 1961–63. Differences in effectiveness of these treatments against these insects were not significant. Also, no significant differences in total square or boll production, plant height at harvest, or total yield were found among these treatments. Treatments of methyl parathion + DDT and toxaphene + DDT + methyl parathion delayed squaring about 5–10 days, and this delay in squaring resulted in a corresponding delay in maturity. Thus, the reproductive physiology of cotton was affected slightly by methyl parathion.
