abstract: Cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp., is the most cultivated and consumed legume in West Africa and is typically attacked by
several insect pests, including Maruca vitrata, leading to reduced yields. This study assessed under laboratory conditions the
efficacy of neem oil and M. vitrata multi-nucleopolyhedrovirus (MaviMNPV) against M. vitrata eggs as alternatives to second
generation pesticides. Hatching and mortality rates after biopesticide application of neem oil, MaviMNPV, and the two in
combination reduced the egg viability by 89%, 84% and 91%, respectively. Moreover, the combination of MaviMNPV and
neem oil induced 100% mortality among the hatched larvae, compared to 60% and 100% alone, respectively. Implications for
using these biopesticides are discussed within an integrated pest management (IPM) context.
