Effect of fenoxycarb on some biological aspects of the berseem grasshopper, Euprepocnemis plorans plorans (Charp.) [electronic resource].

Includes references.

The effects of Juvenile hormone analogue, fenoxycarb on some biological aspects of the berseem grasshopper, Euprepocnemis plorans plorans (Charp.) were studied. Three doses of 25,50 and 100 U1 per 3rd instar nymph were applied. The resulting adults were mated with each other in two different sets. First, the adult males and females from the treated 3rd instar nymphs were mated with untreated adults. Second, the adult males and females emerging from the 3rd instar nymphs treated with different doses were mated with each other. The low dose (25 U1/nymph) was the most effective one against the early nymphal instars.
