The bioefficacy of three species of entomopathogenic fungi viz., Metarhizium anisopliae (Metsch.) Sorokin, Beauveria brongniartii (Sacc.) and Beauveria bassiana (Balsana) Vuillrmin, against white grub, Leucopholis lepidophora (Blanchard) infesting sugarcane crop was studied under laboratory conditions. In this bioassay Metarhizium anisopliae fungus caused higher rate of grub mortality at an overall concentration range of 4×105 to 2×106 conidia ml-1 as compared to Beauveria brongniartii and Beauveria bassiana The treatments with Metarhizium anisopliae fungus was found to be most effective and recorded 34.48-58.62 per cent grub mortality on 15 DAT at different conidial concentrations. The fungi Beauveria brongniartii recorded 31.03-55.18 per cent grub mortality, while as in case of fungi Beauveria bassiana 24.14-51.72 per cent grub mortality was observed on 15 DAT at different conidial concentrations. The estimated LC50 values for M. anisopliae, B. brongniartii and B. bassiana towards third instar grubs of Leucopholis lepidophora Blanch. Were 9.05×105,10.44×105 and 11.78×105 conidia ml-1, respectively.Keywords

A field experiment comprised of seven insecticides was conducted at farmers field in endemic area of pest in Kolhapur district particularly area nearby riverbank during 2009-2010. The application of newer insecticides was done by drenching and the granules were applied along with dry soil. Soil drenching of imidacloprid 40 per cent + fipronil 40 per cent - 80 WG @ 300 g ha-1 was found to be most effective treatment for control of white grub followed by clothianidin 50 WDG @ 250 g ha-1, flubendiamide 480 SC @ 400 ml ha-1 and rynaxypyr 0.4 per cent G @ 125 g -1.Keywords
