Abstract |
To avoid chemical control problems and environrnental contamination, different non-chemical pesticides (natural or microbial origin); Jojoba oil. Beauveria bassiana and Menf compound (mixture of natural materials) in addition to the chemical pesticide; pirimiphos-methyl were investigated in field studies in onion by spraying these compounds for one time against Thrips tabaci and its associated predators. The studies were carried out in 2003/4 and 2004/5 seasons at Fayoum Governorate, Egypt. Pirimiphos-methyl showed the highest effectiveness against thrips and its predators, followed by Jojoba oil which showed moderate effectiveness against thrips and its predators. B. bassiana showed insignificant difference in comparison with Jojoba oil but showed low effectiveness against the predators. Ment compound showed the lowest effectiveness against both thrips and predators.
