Neem extract formulations to control Diabrotica speciosa (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) larvae in maize

Abstract: Diabrotica speciosa larvae have been considered to be one of the major subterranean pests of several crops, and its most susceptible host is maize (Zea mays). This study aimed to evaluate the effects of oil-formulated neem extract and lignin-microencapsulated neem extract for D. speciosa larvae control. Effects of applications of neem formulations on the growth of maize plants were also assessed. In the first assay, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0 mL of oil-formulated neem extract were applied per 25 g soil and w… Show more

“…Neem oil is efficacious for thrips (Thysanoptera) control in mango (Mangifera indica L.) and can be used in combination with imidacloprid (Aliakbarpour et al 2011). In corn, neem extract was as effective as fipronil in controlling Diabrotica speciosa larvae (Boiça et al 2017). As part of the IPM program that included chemical pesticides, neem oil effectively controlled pests and increased tomato fruit yields (Boiça et al 2007).…”
