Abstract
A study was carried out in a plastic house under artificial infestation to
test the efficacy of aqueous and methanol extracts from fruits of the Chinaberry
tree, Melia azedarach L. were tested for their efficacy against the chickpea
leaf miner, Liriomyza cicerina R. The results revealed that methanol and
aqueous extracts significantly reduced the mean percent of the leaflet damage
and feeding punctures caused by L. cicerina at all concentrations
compared with the check. The highest concentration of methanol extract (2%) gave
the highest reduction in percent leaflets damage. No phyototoxicity was observed
on treated plants.
