Extracts of <i>Ginkgo biloba</i> or <i>Artemisia</i> species reduce feeding by neonates of codling moth, <i>Cydia pomonella</i> (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), on apple in a laboratory bioassay
Keywords:
insect feeding, larvae, repellent, deterrentAbstract
In a simple bioassay, alcohol extracts (91% V/V ethanol, 4% V/V methanol, 5% V/V isopropanol) from Ginkgo biloba L., Artemisia absinthium L., A. arborescens L. x A. absinthium L., and A. ludoviciana Nutt. "Valerie Finnis", significantly reduced feeding of neonatal codling moth larvae on apple. Extracts from A. californica Less. and A. vulgaris L. had no effects.References
