Azadirachtin, refined rape oil and slaked lime - three natural substances with insecticidal potential - were tested under laboratory conditions for their efficacy against larvae and adults of Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata, at 15°C, 20°C, and 25°C. General statistical analysis (all developmental stages and all insecticidal substances taken into account) was performed on the results of the mortality rates of the individuals and no statistically significant differences between the temperatures were observed on the fifth day after application. At all temperatures, the influence of insecticidal substances in question as well as the interaction between the insecticidal substance and the developmental stage of the pest on mortality rates were significant. The individual statistical analysis (a specified developmental stage of the pest at a specified temperature) revealed the maximum efficacy of the refined rape oil at 15°C and 20°C, the adults being the most sensitive developmental stage (mortality rate about 90%). Other substances tested were less effective, and in general the mortality rate of either larvae or adults did not exceed 50%. In the case that the efficacy of the refined rape oil in controlling the population of the adults of the Colorado potato beetle is confirmed also in field trials, this could be the basis for a better strategy in controlling the overwintered Colorado potato beetles on potato. |
