Since at least 2005, a possibly introduced mealybug of the genus Phenacoccus has been causing serious damage to cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) over much Sindh and Punjab districts Pakistan in north-western India. Some short papers have published locally giving details on structure biology this species suggesting name gossypiphilous Abbas, Arif & Saeed (2005) but without designating type specimens or depositories. This is here considered nomen nudum. A detailed morphological study unable...
Bioassays (at generation G2) with a newly collected field population (designated MN) of Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) from Multan, Pakistan, indicated resistance to spinosad, indoxacarb, deltamethrin, abamectin, and acetamiprid. At G2 the field-derived was divided into two subpopulations, one selected (G2 G11) spinosad (Spino-SEL), whereas second left unselected (UNSEL). A significant reduction in ratio for each compound observed UNSEL at G12, indicating that...

Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) is an important pest causing significant losses to vegetables worldwide. Insecticides resistance in P. a serious issue for scientists since last 30 years. However, deltamethrin and Bt Cry1Ac are commonly used insecticides against but studies involving development of these two at different temperatures lacking. The current study was aimed find out the toxicity Cry1Ac, xylostella. Results showed that positive correlation between temperature...

Abstract Plutella xylostella is an important pest of cruciferous crops worldwide. However, information regarding the age‐stage, two‐sex life parameters P. , which vital for designing more effective control methods, currently lacking. The present study reports table on napa cabbage ( Brassica oleracea var. napa), white B. capitata), and cauliflower botrytis) under laboratory conditions at 25 ± 2°C, 50–60% relative humidity, a 16‐h light : 8‐h dark photoperiod. time development from egg to...
Ultraviolet (UV) light has been used worldwide to monitor and trap insect pests. Whitefly adults show conspicuous positive phototactic behavior toward UV stimuli; however, knowledge of the effect exposure on various life-history parameters Dialeurodes citri remains limited. The present research aimed investigate ultraviolet radiation (UV-A; long-wave) reproduction longevity D. as well development immature (eggs, larvae, pupae) flies in F1 generation. Paired were exposed UV-A for different...
Abstract Storing grains remain vulnerable to insect pest attack. The present study developed a biopesticide using biomolecules and their encapsulation in nanoparticles. A 25 kDa cysteine protease extracted from seeds of Albizia procera ( Ap CP) was encapsulated graphene quantum dots (GQDs). insecticidal activity CP, with or without GQDs, against two stored grain pests, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) Rhyzopertha dominica (Fabricius) explored. Insects were exposed three concentrations 7.0, 3.5...
Ecological consideration is of key importance in finding fungi and other entomopathogens for managing insect pests. The probability entomopathogenic increased by knowing the soil characteristics supporting fungal survival diversity. Many opportunistic are closely associated with EPF soil. Diversity occurrence were carried out from samples (1 4 5) dead insects (2 2 collected natural cultivated areas south Punjab. relative research presence abundance soils to non-cultivated hilly lands show...
Different temperature zones have significant impact on the population dynamics of Plutella xylostella. Effective management P. xylostella requires knowledge tolerance by different life stages. In current study, fitness parameters diamondback moth were reported using age-stage, two-sex table traits at four constant temperatures (15, 20, 25 and 30 °C). The cycle was significantly longer 15 °C. 20 °C level found optimal for fecundity, gross reproductive rate (51.74 offspring) net (44.35...
Climate change effects, including temperature extremes and water stress, cause abiotic stress in plants. These changes directly affect flowering the flower reward system for pollinators, influencing plant-pollinator interactions ultimately seed production Here, we tested effects of deprivation on behavior various pollinator species, interactions, yield sunflower,
Habrobracon hebetor (Say) is a parasitoid of various Lepidoptera including Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner), key pest different crops and vegetables. The development both H. were simultaneously evaluated against wide range constant temperatures (10, 15, 17.5, 20, 25, 27.5, 30, 35, 37.5 40 °C). completed its from egg to adult within temperature 17.5-37.5 °C life cycle 15-40 °C. Based on the Ikemoto Takai model developmental threshold (To) thermal (K) complete immature stages, calculated as 11.6...
Although Pakistan has rich biodiversity, many groups are poorly known, particularly insects. To address this gap, we employed DNA barcoding to survey its insect diversity. Specimens obtained through diverse collecting methods at 1,858 sites across from 2010-2019 were examined for sequence variation in the 658 bp barcode region of cytochrome c oxidase 1 (COI) gene. Sequences nearly 49,000 specimens assigned 6,590 Barcode Index Numbers (BINs), a proxy species, and most (88%) also possessed...
