Table 4.

The mortality rates (Mean ± SE) of target organism (Tetranychus pueraricola) and non-target organisms (Picromerus lewisi, Harmonia axyridis) after treating with GC16 vs. Control (water).

Organism	Mortality Rate (%)		t, p
Organism	GC16	Control	t, p
Tetranychus pueraricola	86.21 ± 2.02 ^A,a	2.38 ± 1.19 ^A,b	t = −35.693, df = 4, p < 0.001
Picromerus lewisi	4.15 ± 0.23 ^B,a	4.35 ± 0.37 ^A,a	t = 0.447, df = 4, p = 0.678
Harmonia axyridis	8.33 ± 1.67 ^B,a	5.83 ± 0.83 ^A,a	t = −1.342, df = 4, p = 0.251

Note: Values are mean ± SE. The same uppercase letter in a column expresses no significant difference among three organisms according to the one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s honestly significant difference (HSD) test, and the same lowercase letter in a row indicates no significant difference between GC16 treatment (6.67 g/L) and control (water) based on independent sample t test at p < 0.05. The F and p values for HSD test of GC16 and Control across the three organisms are F(2,6) = 925.992, p < 0.001 and F(2,6) = 3.973, p = 0.080, respectively.
