Biological activity of two coniferous essential oils against spongy moth larvae and Phytophthora root pathogens

Abstract

We provide one excel (with five sheets) and 5 csv files. The data in the excel file is the same as the one provided in the 5 csv files. Data file named 'raw data.xlsx' is consisted of 5 sheets containing raw data on all analyzed traits in the manuscript for the spongy moth and Phytophthora sp. The first sheet named 'RDC' contains data on relative deterrence coefficients of spongy moth larvae exposed to three different concentrations of Calocedrus decurrens and Cupressus arizonica essential oils. The second sheet named 'ADC' contains data on absolute deterrence coefficients of spongy moth larvae exposed to three different concentrations of Calocedrus decurrens and Cupressus arizonica essential oils. The third sheet named 'RCR' contains data on the relative consumption rate of spongy moth larvae exposed to three different concentrations of Calocedrus decurrens and Cupressus arizonica essential oils, and control treatment. The forth sheet named ‘RGR’ contains data on relative growth rate of gypsy moth larvae exposed to three different concentrations of Calocedrus decurrens and Cupressus arizonica essential oils, and control treatment. The fifth sheet named ‘Ir’ contains data on the antimicrobial activity of three concentrations of Calocedrus decurrens and Cupressus arizonica essential oils against Phytophthora × cambivora, P. plurivora and P. quercina expressed as inhibition rate of mycelial growth.
