Abstract
Life table is a basic tool for eradication the pest offspring as a result of the treatment. Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders) adult moth stage was treated with LC50, s of emamectin benzoate, hexaflumuron and teflubenzuron to study the life table parameters as affected the treatments used. Hexaflumuron was the best treatment effect on P. gossypiella life table parameters, followed by teflubenzuron and emamectin benzoate. The benzoyl phenyl urea of hexaflumuron was the most decreasing of egg hatchability (0.48), net reproductive rate, Ro (15.80 female’s daughter/female in one generation), intrinsic rate of natural increase, rm (0.0536 times/female/day) and finite rate of increase, erm (1.0551times/day). The same compound (hexaflumuron) increased the developmental time (47.6 days), generation time, T (51.51 days) and doubling time, DT (12.93 days) compared with other treatments used and normal adult moths. So, hexaflumuron was considered the best treatment comparing with other compounds used for the most life table parameters of P. gossypiella adult moths.
