Author(s): J Niranjanadevi and N Ganapathy
Abstract: Laboratory studies were conducted to assess the safety of chlorpyriphos 20 EC on Trichogramma chilonis and Indian bees. Chlorpyriphos 20 EC caused mortality ranging from 68.50% to 77.00% on Trichogramma chilonis. Chlorpyriphos was moderately harmful to Indian bees. Maximum bee mortality was registered by chlorpyriphos 20 EC 2000 ml/ha (96.67%), 1500 ml/ha (96.67%) and 1000 ml/ha (80.00%). Dursban 20 EC 1000, chlorpyriphos 20 EC 750, Dursban 20 EC 500, chlorpyriphos 20 EC 500 and dimethoate 30 EC 333 ml/ha registered 86.67%, 76.67%, 73.33%, 70.00% and 66.67% bee mortality respectively.
