Abstract | ||||
Laboratory experiments were carried out in an attempt to disclose the effect of a bio-insecticide (Spinosad), an IGR (consult) and their mixture at different concentrations (19ppm), (123ppm) and (9ppm of spinosad+52ppm of consult), respectively on one day old of the 5th nymphal instar of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria (Forskal) by feeding technique. Total proteins, lipids and cholesterol contents were determined after 2, 4 and 6 days of treatment with Spinosad (at LC50 value), consult(at LC50 value) and their mixture(at LC25 values). Total proteins, total lipids, total cholesterol, Highly significant decline were recorded in them by mixture. | ||||
