Inherited Sterility in Codling Moth (Lepidoptera Tortriciclae): Effect of Substerilizing Doses of Radiation on Field Competitiveness
In release-recapture tests conducted in apple orchards in Oroville, WA, a significant relationship was found between the dose of gamma radiation used to treat adult male codling moths, Cydiapomonella (L.), and the number of males recaptured in virgin female-baited sticky traps. Males treated with 100 Gy responded to calling virgin females in larger percentages than those treated with 200 and 25...
متن کاملPotential of Entomopathogenic Fungi for Biocontrol of Spodoptera Litura Fabricius (lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
Susceptibility of different biological stages of Spodoptera litura to various strains of entomopathogenic fungi was evaluated under laboratory conditions at Department of Entomology University of Agriculture, Faisalabad using the insect immersion method. Virulence potential of the entomopathogenic fungi varied with different biological stages of the insect pest. Eggs and larvae were comparative...
متن کاملTemperature- and CO 2 -Dependent Life Table Parameters of Spodoptera litura (Noctuidae: Lepidoptera) on Sunflower and Prediction of Pest Scenarios
Predicted increase in temperature and atmospheric CO2 concentration will influence the growth of crop plants and phytophagous insects. The present study, conducted at the Central Research Institute for Dryland Agriculture, Hyderabad, India, aimed at (1) construction of life tables at six constant temperatures viz., 20, 25, 27, 30, 33, and 35 ± 0.5 °C for Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) (Noctuidae...
متن کاملEfficient incorporation of unsaturated fatty acids into volicitin-related compounds in Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae).
We introduced efficient incorporation of unsaturated fatty acids into volicitin [N-(17-hydroxylinolenoyl)-L-glutamine] and N-linolenoyl-L-glutamine, insect-derived elicitors of plant volatiles, in the common cutworms Spodoptera litura by the incubation of larval gut tissues with unsaturated (linolenic, linoleic, and oleic acids) or saturated fatty acids (palmitic and stearic acids) sodium salt,...
متن کاملDevelopment and emergence patterns of the tobacco cutworm Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
Study of lifecycle patterns and rhythms is important to understand the ecology and evolution of insects. The tobacco cutworm Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a serious polyphagous pest in Asia, Oceania and the Indian subcontinent. The laboratory investigations of development patterns and circadian rhythms described in this paper have shown that the development duration from egg to...
