Abstract
Benomyl controlled cabbage maggot, Hylemya brassicae (Bouché), on potted cabbage plants in a greenhouse when applied as a drench 3 days or 3 hours before eggs were introduced. It was not effective when applied 2 days or more after eggs were added or when the plants were transplanted from treated to untreated soil before eggs were added. The results suggested that the action of benomyl was ovicidal.Keywords
