Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: Results of studies conducted in Imperial Valley, California, in 1996 showed that foliar applications of an experimental systemic insecticide EXP 80667 to cotton reduced silverleaf whitefly densities cotton season long. Lint yields from plots treated with EXP 80667 at 0.075 lb/ac was comparable to lint yields from plots treated with registered and recommended insecticide and an insecticide mixture and significantly greater than yields from untreated control plots.
