IMPACT OF ACETAMAPRID, IMIDACLOPRID AND DIAFENTHIURON ON BEMISIA TABACI AND TOMATO LEAF CURL VIRUS DISEASE INCIDENCE
Abstract
Five tomato varieties/lines (viz:Thorgal, Morgal, Rio- Grande, Baby Red and Nagina) were sown in randomized complete block design with three replications in the experimental area of Plant Pathology Department, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. A highly susceptible variety Nagina was sown as spreader in between the test varieties to produce the maximum disease. Four treatments including untreated control, Acetamaprid, Imidacloprid and Diafenthiuron were evaluated against Bemisia tabaci population and Tomato Leaf Curl Virus disease under natural field condition. Treatments were applied randomly to each block of variety. Acetamaprid was found to be the most effective against the reduction of vector population as well as Tomato Leaf Curl Virus disease followed by imidacloprid and Diafenthiuron as compared to the untreated control.
