ABSTRACT
The objective of this study was to observe the molluscicidal activities of Euphorbia milli, known as "poysean" in Thailand, against Indoplanorbis exustus. Latex from 12 different E. milii hybrids was screened for its molluscicidal activities. Indoplanorbis exustus were exposed for 24 and 48 hours to the latex at various concentrations ranging from 6 to 25 ppm and mortality rates were recorded. Eight hybrids of latex were effective. The six most effective hybrids were E. milii Dang-udom, E. milii Arunroong, E. milii Raweechotchuong, E. milii Srisompote, E. milii Sri-umporn and E. milii Tongnopakun, which killed all snails after 24 hours of exposure. Under the same conditions, latex of E. milii Dowpraket and E. milii Promsatid killed 50% of the snails. Such results indicate that these 6 hybrids seem promising as natural molluscicidal agents.
