Figure 1:
Percent corrected mortality (mean ± S.E.) of adult individuals of mango leafhopper (Idioscopus clypealis) bioassayed against different differential-chemistry synthetic insecticides at their label recommended dose rates. Different letters indicate overall significant difference among the insecticidal treatments (two-factor factorial analysis of variance followed by HSD test at P ≥ 0.05).
Figure 2:
Percent corrected mortality (mean ± S.E.) of adult individuals of Asian citrus psyllid (Diaphorina citri) bioassayed against different differential-chemistry synthetic insecticides at their label recommended dose rates. Different letters indicate overall significant difference among the insecticidal treatments (two-factor factorial analysis of variance followed by HSD test at P ≥ 0.05).
Figure 3:
Percent corrected mortality (mean ± S.E.) of 3rd instar female individuals of mango mealybug (Drosicha mangiferae) bioassayed against different differential-chemistry synthetic insecticides at their label recommended dose rates. Different letters indicate overall significant difference among the insecticidal treatments (two-factor factorial analysis of variance followed by HSD test at P ≥ 0.05).
Figure 4:
Percent corrected mortality (mean ± S.E.) of worker individuals of subterranean termites (Odontotermes obesus) bioassayed against different differential-chemistry synthetic insecticides at their label recommended dose rates. Different letters indicate overall significant difference among the insecticidal treatments (two-factor factorial analysis of variance followed by HSD test at P ≥ 0.05).
