ABSTRACT:
Roseotoxin B, a cyclodepsipeptide which is relatively nontoxic to mammals was found to cause mortality and significant reduction in growth when fed to neonate larvae of the corn earworm and southern armyworm as a component of the diet. Thus, it may be used to control Lepidopteran insect pests.
