Brahmina coriacea (Hope) is the most widely distributed and destructive species of white grubs having potential to inflict 40-50 per cent yield losses to potato in Himachal Pradesh. The efficacy of two local isolates of Beauveria brongniartii (KH I and KH II) was evaluated against grubs of B. coriacea by dip treatment and oral feeding methods. Against first and second instar grubs, KH I in dip treatment proved to be highly effective, whereas for third instar grubs, KH I through oral feeding showed higher virulence. The LC50 values for first instar grubs for KH I and KH II were 2.55×105 conidia/ml and 2.80×105 conidia/ml in dip treatment, whereas in oral feeding method, the LC50 values were 7.27×105 conidia/ml and 9.69×105 conidia/ml, respectively. Against second instar grubs, LC50 values calculated were 2.91×105 conidia/ml and 3.98×105 conidia/ml for KH I and KH II in dip treatment, whereas corresponding values through oral feeding method were 5.36×105 conidia/ml and 8.82×105 conidia/ml. LC50 values for third instar grubs were 4.47×105 conidia/ ml and 4.88×105 conidia/ml for KH I and KH II in dip treatment, whereas through oral feeding, LC50 values were 3.03×105 conidia/ml and 5.14×105 conidia/ml for KH I and KH II, respectively.Keywords

The present study deals with the impact of temperature on development, survival, reproduction and population growth of a recently invaded and the most destructive pest of tomato, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) with the aim to understand its possible expansion in different agro-climatic zones. Though T. absoluta was able to develop between 15° and 35°C, temperature around 25°-30°C was more suitable. Survival and fecundity were highest at 25°C and lowest at 35°C. Developmental threshold for different developmental stages of the pest varied from 6.2 to 9.5°C, while the thermal constant required by the insect to complete the development from egg to adult emergence was 500 degree-days. Population growth parameters were also influenced significantly by the rearing temperature. Intrinsic rate of increase, net reproductive rate and finite rate of increase was higher at 25° and 30°C as compared to other temperature regimes. The study concludes that T. absoluta can be a serious pest of tomato in mid-hills of north-western Himalayan region and the southern plains of India where temperatures varies between 15-35°C. Furthermore, the developmental threshold values indicate that the pest can develop and survive at temperatures as low as 6-9°C without entering the diapause as long as the food is available.Keywords

The spatial distribution of Aphidius matricariae and Myzus persicae was studied in bell pepper under polyhouse conditions. In the present study, M. persicae and its parasitoid, A. matricariae populations followed negative binomial distribution throughout the season. The variance to mean ratio (σ2 /X), mean crowding (X*), ratio of mean crowding to mean (X*/X), ‘k’ of negative binomial, Taylor’s power equation for M. persicae and A. matricariae were σ² = 6.97X1.531 (R2 = 0.931), and σ² = 4.29X1.282 (R2 = 0.90) during 2018-2019, respectively. Iwao’s patchiness regression was X* = 45.12 + 1.333X (R2 = 0.853), and X* = 5.406 + 1.195X (R2 = 0.767) during 2018-2019, respectively. Optimum number of samples required for the green peach aphid, M. persicae and A. matricariae were 261.1 and 474 at 20% precision level. The present study will be useful for developing a sampling plan of M. persicae and its parasitoid, A. matricariae in bell pepper for its monitoring and management.Keywords
