The total saponins of alfalfa, Medicago sativa L., included in the diet of Colorado potato beetle larvae reduced their feeding, growth rate and survival. The biological activity of those compounds coming both from the roots and from the aerial parts is ,y correlated with the dose. Larvae reared on leaves treated with a 0.5% dose virtually did not feed at all and died after 4-6 days. Lower saponin...
The effect of some terpenoid lactones (monocyclic δ-hydroxy-γ-lactone; bicyclic δ-hydroxy-γ-spirolactone and bicyclic δ-hydroxy-γ-lactone) and azadirachtin on feeding and growth of Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say larvae was studied. Among lactones bicyclic δ-hydroxy-γ-spirolactone showed a strong feeding deterrency. Larvae treated with this compound consumed 0.163 cm² (per larva) of potato leaves during...
