Abstract
Antifeedant, larvicidal and pupicidal activities of hexane, chloroform and ethyl acetate extracts of Atlantia monophylla leaf were studied against third instar larvae of Helicoverpa armigera. All the extracts showed feeding deterrent, larvicidal and pupicidal effects in a dose dependent manner. Significant antifeedant, larvicidal and pupicidal activities were observed only in hexane extract. The hexane extract was subjected to fractionation using silica gel column chromatography. Twelve fractions were obtained. Ninth fraction showed good antifeedant, larvicidal, pupicidal activities and disrupted adult emergence. LC(50) value was at 384.57 ppm for larval mortality. The active fraction at 1000 ppm concentration had 100% pupal mortality.Entities:
