ABSTRACT.   Pupae of Plutella maculipennis Curtis radiosterilized with 30 krad of gamma radiation were released in an experimental plot of 15 x 10 m2 at Pacet, West Java. Five releases totalling about 9 times the natural existing population, resulted in a reduction of about 38-78% of the field population based on pupae formed. Egg hatch was found to decrease from 98.53% (control plot) to 8.43% (treated plot).
