Abstract

The histopathological effects of the commercial product Viruset® (based on Spodoptera littoralis NPV) on the larvae of the cotton leaf worm, were investigated in the laboratory. Treatment of the 4th instar larvae with the bioinsecticide revealed many ultrastructural alterations in the midgut of the 6th instar larva. This is evident in the apparent alterations as in the cytoplasm, the nuclei, and chromatin. The use of this biocontrol agent is therefore quite promising against this pest.
