The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), native to the Americas, was confirmed in West and Central Africa in 2016 and reported in almost all countries of sub-Saharan Africa in 2017, becoming thereafter one of the major constraints on the production of maize, the main staple food crop in the region. Cereals depend on silicon (Si)-based defences to fight off herbivore...... hiện toàn bộ
Biological activity and characterization of nucleopolyhedrovirus isolates ofSpodoptera lituraPhytoparasitica - Tập 34 - Trang 92-101 - 2006
C. M. Senthil Kumar, R. J. Rabindra, N. Sathiah
Geographical isolates ofSpodoptera litura (Fabricius) (Noctuidae: Lepidoptera) nucleopolyhedrovirus (SpltNPV), collected from different parts of India and maintained at Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, were compared for their biological activity and subjected to Restriction Endonuclease (REN) analysis. Neonate and second instar bioassay studies revealed similarity in biological activity as show...... hiện toàn bộ
Development of the carob moth,Spectrobates ceratoniae, on stored almondsPhytoparasitica - Tập 14 - Trang 177-186 - 1986
S. Navarro, E. Donahaye, M. Calderon
The life cycle of the carob moth,Spectrobates (= Ectomyelois) ceratoniae (Zeller), was examined on stored almonds held at 26±1°C and 70±5% relative humidity. Oviposition on almonds averaged 113 ± 5.3 eggs per female. Average adult longevity of the female and male was 5.7 (max. = 10) and 4.6 (max. = 9) days, respectively. In experiments in glass jars, 85.5% of the eggs were laid on almonds, and the...... hiện toàn bộ
Behavior and persistence in soil of benefinPhytoparasitica - Tập 2 Số 1 - Trang 19-24 - 1974
Horowitz, M., Blumenfeld, T.
The phytotoxicity of benefin, as assessed by sorghum on various soils and soil mixtures, was significantly correlated with the organic matter content but not with the clay or lime content of the soils. After 1 month of incubation no significant activity remained from 2 ppm benefin, and after 2 months only slight activity remained from 4 ppm. Benefin was less persistent than trifluralin and more pe...... hiện toàn bộ
First record of the invasive Bondar’s nesting whitefly, Paraleyrodes bondari Peracchi on coconut from IndiaPhytoparasitica - Tập 47 - Trang 333-339 - 2019

First incidence of the neotropical invasive Bondar’s Nesting Whitefly (BNW), Paraleyrodes bondari Peracchi (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in India is reported on coconut palms from Kerala. P. bondari constructs unique woolly wax nests on abaxial surface of palm leaflets and possesses “X”-shaped oblique greyish bands on wings. Presence of flower-petal like ovoid facets on abdominal compound pores (33–35 ...... hiện toàn bộ
