Abstract EN
Antifeedant and larvicidal activities of rhein (1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone-3-carboxylic acid) isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of Cassia fistula flower were studied against lepidopteron pests Spodoptera litura and Helicoverpa armigera.
Significant antifeedant activity was observed against H.
armigera (76.13 %) at 1000 ppm concentration.
Rhein exhibited larvicidal activity against H.
armigera (67.5), S.
litura (36.25 %) and the LC50 values was 606.50 ppm for H.
armigera and 1192.55 ppm for S.
litura.
The survived larvae produced malformed adults.
