Bioassay showed that, this virus has high virulence and can be considered as the important agents on the control of this insect. The LC50 value of PxGV for second instar larvae of cabbage moth was calculated 448.58 g mm(-2). The LT50 values for the same larvae with 749.89 and 1883.65 g mm(-2) doses of PxGV were 6.04 and 6.85 days, respectively.
