Insecticidal properties of an alkaloid from Alstonia boonei de wild
The insecticidal properties of the alkaloid obtained from Alstonia boonei De Wild stem bark was tested against the maize stem borer, Sesamia calamistis Hampson in a laboratory bioassay. Less than one day old (less than 24 h after hatching) S. calamistis larvae were reared on artificial diet treated...
