Abstract

Insect growth regulators generally have a selective effect on the target insects and have practically no apparent side effect on non-target organisms especially vertebrates. Hence, insect growth regulators could be a suitable choice to control pests. Forskolin is a diterpene extracted from the roots of Coleus forskohlii affected normal growth and development of the ovaries of Papilio demoleus L (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae). The fourth instar, fifth instar and pupae were treated with 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 &
