Decrease in Pupation and Adult Emergence of Plutella xylostella (L.) treated with Hexaflumuron

The oligophagous pest Plutella xylostella (L.) is a major crucifer pest in Tehran Province, Iran. Hexaflumuron is an insect growth regulator insecticide with good effects on immature insect stages. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of two sublethal concentrations (LC10 and L...

Hexaflumuron is an insect growth regulator insecticide with good effects on immature insect stages.
