On summer okra crop seasonal incidence as influenced by weather parameters on mites population reached its peak during last week of April with 8.40 mites in 6.25cm2 leaf area/3 leaves. The correlation between mite population was positively significant against maximum temperature (r= 0.841**), minimum temperature (r= 0.805**), evaporation (r= 0.803**), wind velocity (r= 0.728**) and bright sunshine hours (r= 0.649*), while with morning R.H (r= - 0.717**) and evening R.H (r= - 0.643*) it was negatively significant. The equations of linear and multiple regression were set of mite population by working out regression co-efficient (b) and constant (a) alongwith coefficient of determination (R2).

Abstract


On summer okra crop seasonal incidence as influenced by weather parameters on mites population reached its peak during last week of April with 8.40 mites in 6.25cm2 leaf area/3 leaves. The correlation between mite population was positively significant against maximum temperature (r= 0.841**), minimum temperature (r= 0.805**), evaporation (r= 0.803**), wind velocity (r= 0.728**) and bright sunshine hours (r= 0.649*), while with morning R.H (r= - 0.717**) and evening R.H (r= - 0.643*) it was negatively significant. The equations of linear and multiple regression were set of mite population by working out regression co-efficient (b) and constant (a) alongwith coefficient of determination (R2).
