  • Publication number: 20160100572
    Abstract: The invention includes a method for enhancing insecticide efficacy against phytophagous insects with an acidic amino acid feeding stimulator. The acidic amino acid, L-aspartate, stimulates feeding in codling moth neonates at much lower concentrations than known feeding stimulators and acts as an effective tank-mixed additive for increasing efficacy of insecticides, reducing fruit damage, and increasing yield of the fruit.
