Implication

Observational analysis reveals high mortality rates of Amrasca biguttula with entomopathogenic fungi and plant extracts, suggesting effective biocontrol methods.

Key Points

Fungal treatments of Beauveria bassiana achieved 83.5% mortality of Amrasca biguttula after 72 hours.
In lab trials, plant extracts from neem and castor showed over 82% mortality within 24 hours, indicating their efficacy.
Amrasca biguttula mortality was measured using fungal suspensions and plant extracts, highlighting different effectiveness levels.
The results suggest entomopathogenic fungi may provide a sustainable alternative to chemical pesticides in agricultural pest control.
