Melia azedarach extract as an antifeedant to Bemisia tabaci (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae)
Florida Entomologist 80 (1), 92-94
Abstract: Tests conducted under glass-house conditions indicated that aqueous extracts of Melia azedarach applied on bean plant leaves interfere with longevity and development of immature stages of Bemisia tabaci (Genn.).That effect could reduce the transmission efficiency of bean golden mosaic virus by the vector.
