Abstract
In this study, pathogenicity of three virus isolates, Spodoptera littoralis NPV, Helicoverpa armigera NPV, Spodoptera litura NPV was evaluated in three different concentrations of 6× 102, 6× 104, 6×106 OBml-1 on 5-day-old larvae of Egyptian cotton leafworm,
S. littoralis at 25 ˚C on artificial diet. The highest larval duration was observed in concentration of 6×104 OBml-1 H. armigera NPV with 19.7 days which had a significant difference with other treatments. S. littoralis NPV in concentrarion of 6×104 had the lowest percentage of pupal rate (10%) and lowest pupal weight in concentrarions of 6×102 and 6×104 OBml-1 (18.3 and 13.8 mg, respectively). The lowest adult emergence (6.7%) was observed in S. littoralis NPV isolate with 6×104 OBml-1 concentration. S. littoralis NPV was most effective virus for controlling various biological stages of this pest. The LC50 of S. littoralis NPV isolate on 5-day-old larvae of Egyptian cotton leafwormwas determined to be 7×102 OBmL-1
