| Popis: | Acetone and chloroform extracts of the seed of Xylopia aethiopica (Dunal) A. Rich (Annonaceae) were evaluated in the laboratory for their insecticidal effect on the adult Callosobruchus maculatus (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Bruchidae). Adult mortality was assayed using 0.5ml and 1.0 ml of extract per 20 g cowpea. Five dosages (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 ml) of X. aethiopica extracts per 20 g cowpea seed were used to determine the oviposition, adult emergence and seed damage by C. maculatus. Untreated control and solventtreated control were included. At 3 and 5 days after treatment (DAT), percentage mortality was significantly (p |
