Abstract

Efficacy of different synthetic insecticides against Uroleucon compositae (Theobald) [Homoptera a Aphidiadae] infesting ornamental crop Gaillardia puchella Foug. was studied at Anand Agricultural University, Anand during the year 2003–04. Of the nine synthetic insecticides tested, dimethoate (0.03%), methyl-o-demeton (0.025%) and monocrotophos (0.04%) proved highly effective for the control of U. compositae (Theobald) on G. puchella Foug.
