Abstract
For the purpose of causing repellency against oviposition of Phorbia b rassicae 6 repellents in slow release formulations were tested. The be st formulation showed an acceptable repellency for at least 5 weeks. S uch a protection probable can be sufficient (e.g. for cauliflower) for building up a resistance against the larvae of P. brassicae. Further field experiments are needed for improving the carrier substances.
