The invention belongs to the technical field of
pest control, and particularly provides a
cotton bollworm nuclear polyhedrosis virus WV104 which is preserved in the China Center for Type Culture Collection (CCTCC) in June 2024, and the preservation number is CCTCC NO: V202461. The
virus has the advantages of wide insecticidal spectrum, high
toxicity and the like, and has good insecticidal activity on larvae of various lepidoptera pests. The insecticidal composition has a
good control effect on oriental tobacco budworms, can remarkably reduce the harm degree of the oriental tobacco budworms and improve the yield and quality of crops, is harmless to the environment and
human health, meets the requirements of green
agriculture development, and has important significance on development of efficient
insect virus insecticides and biological control of pests. The invention further provides a composite suspending agent based on the
cotton bollworm nuclear polyhedrosis virus WV104, the composite suspending agent has the characteristics of
ultraviolet resistance, high adhesiveness,
long lasting period, greenness, health and
environmental protection, the prevention effect of the composite suspending agent for preventing and treating oriental tobacco budworms in the field reaches 78% or above, and the composite suspending agent has good application and popularization prospects.
