Efficacy of Chemical and Non-Chemical Compounds against the Egyptian Mealybug, Icerya Aegyptiaca (Douglas) (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Monophlebidae) under Laboratory Condition
Résumé
Laboratory experiment was carried out to determine the toxicity effect of different chemical and non-chemical compounds against immature stages (nymphs) and mature stages (adult females) of the Egyptian mealy bug, Icerya aegyptiaca (Douglas) on citrus leaves in Ismailia Agricultural Research Station, Ismailia Governorate, Egypt on 10th August, 2018. Four insect insecticides : (Acetamiprid, Chlorpyrifos, Diflubenzuron and Malatox), bio-insecticide (Bioranza), mineral oil (Super Royal oil) and plant oil (Jasmine oil) were used. The obtained results revealed that the tested chemical and non-chemical compounds on I. aegyptiaca were varied under laboratory conditions. Moreover, these compounds gave the same efficacy against both the nymphs and adult females. But, the adult females of I. aegyptiaca were lowest susceptible to the tested compounds than the nymphs. Also, Acetamiprid and Chlorpyrifos were the most effective insecticide against the nymphs and adult females of mealybug on citrus leaves, while the mineral and plant oils were the least effective treatment in controlling this insect species.
