The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a serious pest known for its ability to feed on various crops, particularly maize, inflicting significant reduction in maize yield. Farmers have traditionally dependent chemical insecticides manage this pest. These are frequently ineffective because the pest’s hidden feeding habits hinder chemicals from reaching their intended target. In response challenge, an vitro bioassay was performed evaluate virulence of...
Interpretation :The present study was carried out to identify and explore novel areas of semiochemical based pest management like oviposition deterrents.The deterrents were identified from larval faecal pellets pink bollworm using methanol as solvent analysed in GC-MS.Three fatty acids evaluated for deterrent effect.In the study, three major compounds namely; oleic, linoleic palmitic first time bollworm.Their effect confirmed bioassays with different concentrations compounds.The avoidance...
The wax beetle, Platybolium alvearium Blair (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), is a new pest of the Indian honey bee (Apis cerana himalaya) in north-eastern state Meghalaya. Adult beetles were observed feeding directly on wax, and grubs fed exclusively flakes. infestation level colonies was measured by counting number per cm2 comb at 15 day intervals. developmental time for eggs, larvae, adult 9.16 ± 0.14 days, 117.55 0.73 153.35 0.5 respectively.
Pumpkin is a major cultivated crop particularly in north eastern states of India that depends on insects for the pollination, as pollens these plants are large sized and sticky. In present study, field lab experiments were conducted to determine efficiency pollinators pumpkin based their diversity, relativeabundance foraging activity. Total four hymenopteran insect observed viz., bumble bee, little honey Indian bee Digger bee. On basis abundance relative was identified most abundant...
Abstract Pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders) originates from South Asia and has spread across major cotton-growing regions. The pest is considered to be the most destructive of economic concern globe. In India, developed resistance dual Bt toxins its concealed feeding nature makes target sites almost inaccessible for insecticide. view this issue, there need identify a suitable alternative management. context, semiochemicals serve as one best eco-friendly options. These...
Globally Helicoverpa armigera, a polyphagous pest of many economic crops, has developed resistance to almost all groups insecticides presently in used for its control. In cotton, larvae cause severe damage and feeds on plant parts including young leaves, square, flowers bolls which turn damage. Recent reports development transgenic cotton Cry1Ac Cry2Ab (Bt cotton) given an indication future threat growers. Therefore, use semiochemicals as management strategy these insects would be great...
<title>Abstract</title> Oviposition deterrents are the semiochemicals that provide first line of defense by modifying behavior conspecific females. In present study, oviposition deterrent effect four fatty acids (linoleic, palmitic, myristic, and stearic acid) six vegetable oils (groundnut, rice bran, safflower, sesame, soybean, sunflower) having was confirmed in bioassay under laboratory condition at different concentration against old-world bollworm <italic>Helicoverpa armigera</italic>....
Blood stream infections can lead to life threatening sepsis and require immediate antimicrobial treatment. culture is an essential tool for the investigation of clinically suspected bacteremia or septicemia. A timely detection organism type antibiotic susceptibility testing critical effective treatment patient. Illness associated with blood infection ranges from self-limiting life-threatening that rapid aggressive The present study was describe profile bacterial isolates cultures in a...
A field experiment was carried out at ICAR Research Complex for NEH Region, Umiam to evaluate some botanicals against mustard aphid Lipaphis erysimi. The laid in randomized block design with eight treatments and three replications. seeds(cv. Varuna) sown during third week of October. viz., Bakain (Melia azedarach) leaf extract (5%aqueous solution), Lantana (Lantana camara) (5% aqueous Turmeric (Curcuma longa) rhizome powder Marigold (Tagetes erecta) Vasaka (Adhatoda vasica) chloropyrifos 20%...
The biological traits and thermal needs of Trichogrammatoidea bactrae Nagaraja was assessed on the eggs Pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella to predict ideal temperature for release parasitoid. A card with 300 P. offered T. adults in a 5:1 ratio at temperatures 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34 36 oC. All developmental stages were monitored each temperature, however, no parasitism or development occurred 36°C. highest rate observed 28°C (76.03%), emergence rates exceeded 85.65% between...
