Abstract

Different botanical products to control Diaphorina citri (Kuwayama) were evaluated in Persian lime (Citrus Latifolia Tan.), in Tlapacoyan, Ver., México during the cycle autum-winter 2008-2009. Botanical products included BIO-Die®. PROGRANIC® PROGRANIC® Omega, PROGRANIC® Gama,PROGRANIC®  UltraluxS. PROGRANIC®Oil. A randomized complete block design with 4 repetitions was used. Data on nymph and adult populations were collected and analyzed by using ANOVA and differences between treatments were analyzed by mean comparisons. A previous determination of the number of adults or nymphs in each recently emerged shoot was conducted to establish a threshold level of application. Persistence of the products during periods of 7, 17, 27 and 37 days, in each experimental unit sprays and evaluations were conducted. Significant effects were observed on nymph populations with the treatments Oíl, Omega, Biodie, Gama, NeemAcar, Ultralux-s; treatments  that  did  not  showed  statistical  differences  among  them,  but  statistical  difference  was observed between them and the control treatment. In Diaphorina citri adult population, all treatments were statistically different in comparison with the control treatment. An increased effect on adult populations was observed on Gama and OIL, then plant extract Ultralux-s, NeemAcar and Biodie, followed by Omega, treatment that was statistically different in comparison with all treatments. These products can be successfully used as alternatives in the integrated management of this pest.
