Abstract
The antifeedant action of fentin acetate, fentin chloride anJ AC-24055
was evaluated on the caterpillars of Papilla demoleus and Plusia peponis, Fentin
chloride ranked first both in the antifeedant action and field persistence on plants,
followed by fentin acetate and AC-24055 for both P. demoleus and P. peponis,
The slight phytotoxicity on citrus and snakegourd did in no way affect the vigour
of the crops.
