The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) is the major insect pest of cabbage crops in Togo and Benin. For control, farmers very often resort to spraying chemical insecticides at high dosages with frequent applications. Bioassays were carried out on three populations of P. xylostella, two fr...

In many African countries, the misuse of chemical insecticides is questioned with the awareness of their negative effects on ecosystems and human health. There is, therefore, constant request from consumers for alternatives to chemical insecticide in plant protection. In the present study, the ef...

The present work aims to assess the pathogenicity of the conidia of six isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae and two isolates of Beauveria bassiana on Helicoverpa armigera in order to select the most promising ones for developing a microbiological product to be used in cotton fields. The pathogenic...

Many countries have understood that an alternative is needed to the problems of depletion of fossil fuels. Emphasis is therefore put on biofuel-producing crops. One of the most important biofuel-producing plants in tropical is Jatropha curcas L. Several biotic and abiotic constraints limit J. cur...

A survey study was performed in five agro-ecological zones in Benin to assess farmers’ knowledge and perceptionon the identification, damage recognition, applied control methods of two cotton insect pests Helicoverpaarmigera Hübner and Aphis gossypii Glover. A total of 200 farmers were interviewe...
