Study of insecticidal activities of senduduk (melastoma malabathricum l.) and chilli (capsicum annum l.) towards the rice weevils (sitophilus oryzae l.)
Rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae L. is one of the major pests of stored commodities. Normally, the adult S. oryzae feed on rice and the females lay eggs inside rice kernels. The aim of the study was to study the insecticidal activities against S. oryzae by using two different medicinal plants, Sendudu...
