Abstract
An experiment was conducted to evaluate different concentrations of alcoholic plant extracts from the plant parts of Citrullus colocynthis seeds, Conocarpus lancifolius leaves, and Conocarpus lancifolius seeds in controlling the scale insect Parlatoria blanchardi (Targ.-Tozz.) on the Shweithi date palm cultivar Phoenix dactylifera. The results demonstrated the superiority of C. lancifolius leaf extract over the other plant part extracts used in the experiment in eliminating the static stages of the insect, with relative efficiency rates of 31.7% and 51.54% for the egg and adult stages, respectively. The results showed that the optimal concentration yielding the highest mortality rate for the egg stage was 3 ml/L of C. lancifolius leaf extract, achieving a relative efficiency rate of 62.2% after 7 days of treatment, with a significant difference compared to all other concentrations and time periods. The highest relative efficiency for the adult stage was also observed with C. lancifolius leaf extract at a concentration of 3 ml/L, 7 days after treatment, with a significant difference compared to all other concentrations and time periods, reaching 66.78%.
