The fungus, Acremonium zeylanicum (Petch) W. Gams and H.C. Evans, was found infectious to sugarcane woolly aphid, Ceratovacuna lanigera Zehntner and caused differential mortality of different instars at varied concentrations. Studies on the efficacy of the entomopathogenic fungus revealed that the mortality of aphids increased with increase in concentration and time of application. First instar nymphs showed the highest mortality (92.5%) at 1x1010 conidia 1-1 and as the stage of the insect advanced, the mortality rate declined. On the contrary, lower mortality of aphids was recorded at 1x104 conidia 1-1 after 10 days of application.Keywords

Laboratory studies were conducted to assess the repellant effects of three essential oils from plants viz., orange, eucalyptus and cinnamon oils against four major coleopteran stored grain insect pests of rice viz., Sitophilus oryzae, Oryzaephilus surinamensis, Rhyzopertha dominica, and Tribolium castaneum. The % repellency (PR) and index of repellency (RI) were observed to range from 10 to 100% and 0.00 to 0.90, respectively. Eucalyptus oil @ 5% showed maximum repellent action against Tribolium castaneum, registering PR and RI values of 93.33 (F=0.921), 100 (F=1.66), 100 (F=3.772) and 0.07, 0.00 and 0.00, respectively at 3, 6 and 12 hrs after treatment and were found significantly superior over rest of the treatments. Chemical profiling of tested oils through GCMS showed presence of 2- 3 chemical constituents amounting to >90 % of total composition of oil. The results highlight the repellency effects of the essential oils and indicate that these can be ecofriendly ones for the post-harvest protection of rice.Keywords

The rice moth, Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), is a serious pest of grains in storage systems resulting in immense losses but is also widely used as a factitious host for mass rearing of many important natural enemies of crop pests. Given the role of kairomones, the aim of this study was to isolate and identify potential cues from the larval body wash of C. cephalonica, which could attract its gregarious ecto-parasitoid, Habrobracon hebetor (Say) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). Gas chromatography with electroantennography (GC-EAG) and olfactory assays were used to demonstrate the attraction of female H. hebetor to different larval body volatiles. A total of 15 EAG-active compounds were discovered in the body wash of C. cephalonica larvae that triggered a response in female H. hebetor. Among them, four compounds (p-xylene, naphthalene, n-eicosane and n-tricosane) were bioassayed for the behavioural response of parasitoids and found that n-eicosane significantly attracted a higher number of parasitoids than others. Our work establishes the attraction of H. hebetor to volatile kairomone cues emanating from the factitious host larval body, which offers an opportunity for its parasitoid, H. hebetor to improve the mass rearing efficiencyKeywords
