Abstract

Ten mango cultivars were evalauated for their susceptibility to the bud mite, Aceria mangiferae (Sayed) during March May, 1997. The varieties viz., Rumani, Sappattai, Peter and Neelum had more number (74 mites per leaf) of mites than Malgoa (2.0), Baneshan (8.7) and Bangalora. Dicofol at 0.03% recorded a minimum of 10.1 mites/bud, resulting in 64.3 per cent reduction over control followed by monocrotophos at 0.07% (57.5%) and neem seed kernal extract at 10% (53.7%) whereas, neem oil at 3.0% was least effective (32%).
