    The Molluscicidal Effect of Derris Elliptica On Apple Snails

    Uploaded by

    Eduard Thirdy Llenes
    The document describes an experiment that tested the molluscicidal effects of Derris elliptica (tubli roots) extract and a commercial molluscicide called Shatter on apple snails. Three treatments were tested: tubli root extract (Setup A), Shatter solution (Setup B), and a water control (Setup C). The results showed that Setups A and B killed an average of 18 apple snails in 1 hour, while Setup C (water) killed none. Statistical analysis found a significant difference in mortality between the treatments. Therefore, the tubli root extract has potential to be an effective alternative natural molluscicide. Further research is recommended to optimize the extract.

    Tukey Test

    formula for the Tukey test. A vs B had a
    Pair Statistic
    value of .5477 which is lesser than the
    critical value, therefore there is a
    significant difference. A vs C had a
    A vs B .5477 4.34 Insignificant value of 29.5772 which is greater than
    4.34, thus resulting to a significant
    difference. B vs C resulted to a
    A vs C 29.5772 4.34 Significant
    significant difference because the value
    30.1248 is greater than 4.34. A, B, and
    B vs C 30.1248 4.34 Significant C were set-ups used in the experiment.
    Conclusions

     Results showed that an average of 18 out 20 apple snails died after the
    application of the extract, thus making the null hypothesis rejected.
    This simply means that the Tubli roots extract has a potential to be an
    alternative molluscicide. This would be of great help for farmers who
    don’t have enough financial assisstance to buy commercial
    molluscicides.
    Recommendations

    The researcher recommends the following:


     Longer period of experimentation
     Other methods of obtaining the extract
     Different concentrations of the extract
     Use of laboratory apparatuses
