Abstract:
In laboratory, the seed oil of angled bittersweet possed obvious antifeedent effect on
Pieris rapae, Aulacophora femoralis Coiaphellus bowringi, Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata, and other insects attacking vegetable. In addition it also had obvious repellent effects on
Rhizopertha dominica, Tribolium castaneum. When this seed oil was applied, it showed obvious antifeedant effect on
Sitophilus zeamains. It also disturbed
Sitophilus zeamains to produce eggs and eggs to be hatched. It is effective to control
Callosobruchus maculatus. In the field experiments, the effect of controlling
Pieris rapae has been showed as follows: 86.5%, 91.6%, 85.37% was obtained respectively by using 2%, 0.66%, 0.5%the seed oil of angled bittersweet; 89.6% by using 10% Cypermethrin diluted 5000 times; and 79.81% by using root-bark powder of angled bittersweet. So the controlling effect of the seed oil of angled bittersweet is closed to that of the insectidies like Cyperthrin.
