Summary

Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) plant is highly susceptible to Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks). The incidence of this mite population always remained higher on upper canopy of the plant. Among the seven treatments evaluated microbial toxin- avermectin resulted in the best suppression of mite population (86.32% suppression), closely followed by chemical insecticide, fenazaquin (73.07%) and mixed formulation of botanical pesticide, azadirachtin with botanical extract, Spilenthes (70.99%). Microbial toxin and botanicals are bio-pesticides having less or no hazardous effects on human health and environment, and therefore, they can be incorporated in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and organic farming.
