Introduce of oxalis as antifeedant against larvae of moth
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
The leaf eating caterpillar is known as current pest in garden. A winter moth (Plusia gamma L.) is able to make severity damage in vegetable crops. In spite of pest, some plants like oxalis got less damage or remained safe. It could be possibly for the existence of the antifeedant material in these plants. Antifeedant material is a protecting system (related to secondary metabolites) in plant against herbivorous. To test this plant ability in oxalis, soluble of leaf and root prepared and used to control moth larvae activity. In this study observed that the pest under condition of root soluble treatment removed fast in contrast to leaf soluble of oxalis. Also using leaf extraction was somewhat useful to delete larvae. The current study showed the potential of oxalis that could be utilized to product biopesticide.
