Abstract
Several proprietary agents were tested for compatability with the polyhedrosis virus of Colias philodice eurytheme. Suspensions of the virus were added to solutions of the various agents and exposed at room temperature for several months. The suspensions were then applied to foliage fed to test insects. The results indicate that Triton B-1956, Triton X-100, Arlacel "C", Span 80, Tween 80 and diesel oil are available for field testing with the polyhedrosis viruses of insects.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
