Controle de Anticarsia gemmatalis Hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) com reguladores de crescimento de insetos Control of Anticarsia gemmatalis hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae with insect growth regulators
A lagarta-da-soja, Anticarsia gemmatalis Hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), é uma praga importante na cultura da soja no Brasil. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar diferentes inseticidas, reguladores de crescimento, para o controle dessa praga. Os inseticidas diflubenzuron (15g i.a. ha-1), lufenuron (7,5g i.a. ha-1), metoxifenozide (21,6g i.a. ha-1) e teflubenzuron (7,5g i.a. ha-1) foram aplicados com pulverizador costal de precisão, equipado com pontas tipo leque 110, 02, numa pressão de 1 bar e volume de calda de 100l ha-1. No dia da aplicação dos inseticidas, as plantas de soja (cv. Fundacep 33) estavam com 0,90m de altura, no estádio R3.1, e infestação média de 95 lagartas pequenas e de 33 lagartas grandes por dois metros de fileira. A eficiência dos inseticidas foi determinada através da contagem do número de lagartas vivas pequenas e grandes aos 0, 2, 4, 7 e 10 dias após a aplicação (DAA); da percentagem de desfolha aos 15 DAA e da produção de grãos. Foi observado efeito de choque do inseticida metoxifenozide tanto em lagartas pequenas quanto em grandes. Os inseticidas diflubenzuron, lufenuron e teflubenzuron controlaram eficientemente as lagartas a partir de 4 DAA. As infestações de lagartas nas parcelas testemunhas aumentaram a desfolha em 75,8% e reduziram produtividade para 2371 kg ha-1. Nas parcelas tratadas com inseticidas desfolha variou de 34,7% a 50,7% e a produtividade entre 3255kg ha-1 e 3585kg ha-1.<br>The velvetbean caterpillar, Anticarsia gemmatalis Hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is an important soybean pest in Brazil. This study aimed to evaluate growth regulators insecticides. A precision sprayer equipped with 110 02 nozzles, working at a constant pressure of 1 bar and volume of 100 liters per hectare was used to apply the insecticide treatments (diflubenzuron at 15g a.i. per hectare, lufenuron at 7.5 g a.i. per hectare, metoxyfenozide at 21.6g a.i. per hectare and teflubenzuron at 7.5g a.i. per hectare). Applications when plants were 0.90m height, in the R3.1 growth stage, and the number of small larvae was 95, while that of large larvae was 33 per two meters of row. The number of live larvae at 0, 2, 4, 7 and 10 days after application, the defoliation at 15 days after application and grain yield were evaluated. The fastest control of large and small larvae was obtained with metoxyfenozide at 2 days after application. The insecticides diflubenzuron, lufenuron and teflubenzuron efficiently controlled of large and small larvae, but only at 4 days after application. Larval infestations in non-treated plots resulted in significant defoliation and yield losses when compared to plots treated with insecticides
