| Abstract | ||
| The study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of six plant which are :Eugenia carayophyllata , Piper nigrum, Ocimum basilicum, Cuminum cyminum, Allium sativum, Mentha pipertia powders against Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) inVigna sinesis (cow peas) and the physiological quality of the treated seeds under laboratory condition. Among the plant powders tested Eugenia caryophyllata Thunb. Floral buttons and Piper nigrum L. seeds which recorded percentage of oviposition deterrence and percentage reduction in F1 adults as 100 and 84.2% respectively and the feeding deterrent index and seedling percent of plantlets from seeds treated with these powders were 91.78, 78 and 28, 39.6 respectively. So, these powder, achieved satisfactory efficiency. However seeds treated with fruits powders of A. sativum and leaves powders of M. piperita and control treatments showed seedling percents as 64, 54.6 and 54.6 respectively. | ||
