Screening of Parthenium hysterophorus as phago-stimulant against Zygogramma bicolorata (Chrysomelidae: Coleoptera)

Journal of Entomological Research (2006)

Ravi Gautam Md. Aslam Khan C.P.N. Gautam Bishwajeet Paul

Maximum feeding and development of grubs and adults of Zygogramma bicolorata was noticed on tender leaves of P. hysterophorus followed with composit feed (mixture of inflorescence, tender leaf, mature leaf), which also represented control. Feeding on inflorescence was not suitable for insect's breeding, as scanty eggs laid initially by field-collected beetles did not hatch.

Differential electroantennogram response of male and female of Dysdercus cingulatus to okra plant volatiles

Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies (2017)

Joni Kumar Bishwajeet Paul Shivashankara Sweetee Kumari

Different chemical compounds were identified from okra plant by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS) techniques. The male and female of Dysdercus cingulatus showed its characteristics EAGs response to okra extracts and to four common synthetic ((R)-(+)-Limonene, Methyl salicylate, Hexyl acetate and 4-Hydroxy-2, 5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone) plant compounds. Statistically no significant differences were observed in EAGs response between both sexes but the response of female was slightly higher than male. The response elicited by okra extracts was significantly higher than synthetic compounds. The dose-response analysis of selected compounds did not differ greatly in appearance according to the dose loaded on filter paper except (R)-(+)-Limonene. Electroantennogram study of D. cingulatus provides evidence that the antennal receptors were differentially sensitive to these compounds.

Characterization and evaluation of Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki based formulation for field persistence and insect biocontrol

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences (2017)

Sangeeta Paul Bishwajeet Paul M. Aslam Chetana Aggarwal M. S. Rathi

Commercial formulations of Bacillus thuringiensis do not deliver in the field trials, mainly due to short persistence and residual efficacy of bioagent. In the present investigation, different subspecies of Bacillus thuringiensis were evaluated for their larvicidal potential and using the most promising subspecies, B. thuringiensis kurstaki, Wettable powder (WP) formulation addressing these issues was developed by us. The laboratory developed formulation wasevaluated for efficacy under laboratory and field conditions. WP formulation was observed to meet all the criteria set for physico-chemical parameters according to the FAO/WHO specifications. Spore counts and toxicity obtained in this formulation were considerably higher than those obtained in the commercial formulation of B. thuringiensis kurstaki. The developed formulation considerably improved the persistence of B. thuringiensis kurstaki under field conditions. Under field trial on cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata), this formulation significantly reducednumber of leaves damaged; and improved marketable yield of cabbage heads. It could effectively control pests in the field for 10 days after spray. It was very effective in the control of Pieris brassicae, Spilarctia obliqua, Plutella xylostella and Spodoptera litura. Thus, WP formulation of B. thuringiensis kurstaki, developed by us, has good potential for effective biocontrol of insect pests in the field, due to its longer persistence and delivery of higher doseof active ingredient on the crop.

Biology of Paracoccus Marginatus On Parthenium Hysterophorus

Indian Journal of Entomology (2018)

M. Laneesha K. Shankarganesh Sachin S. Suroshe Bishwajeet Paul

The biology of Paracoccus marginatus William and Granara De Willink (Pseudococcidae: Hemiptera) when reared on Parthenium histerophorus L. revealed that its incubation period varied from 2 to 5 days and females had three nymphal instars. The first instar nymphal stage lasted for 6.44 days, and for second and third instars it was 6.30 and 5.72 days, respectively. The nymphs took 19 to 24 days in case of females (mean of 21.67 days). In case of male it was four nymphal instars with two nymphal instars besides an additional pre-pupal and pupal stages; first and second instar lasted for 6.44 and 7.01 days, respectively. For both male and female, the developmental time was accounted separately from second instar onwards. Crawlers developing into male differentiated in second instar, and it was indicated by change in colour from greenish yellow to slight pink. These took 17 to 22 days for developing (mean 19.3 days), due to additional pupal stage. The adult longevity in male ranged 2 to 4 (2.58 ± 0.39) days. The total developmental period in female was from 41 to 65 (61.5 ± 3.26) days, while in male it was 24 to 35 (31.3 ± 5.87) days. The morphometrics of egg, nymphal instars, pupae and adults for both male and female had also been studied. The eggs were greenish yellow to green and are laid in an egg sac which is 2–3 times bigger than the body length and entirely covered with white cottony wax secretion produced by female.

Pathogenicity of Indian isolates of entomopathogenic fungi against important insect pests and natural enemies

Indian Journal of Entomology (2014)

Mohammed Ibrahim Elbashir Bishwajeet Paul K. Shankarganesh Ram Das Gautam Pratibha Sharma

Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are one of the best alternatives to chemical pesticides and crucial component of IPM. Eight isolates of Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin and Metarhizium anisopliae (Metsch.) Sorokin, were obtained from Indian Type Culture Collection (ITCC) and National Centre of Integrated Pest Management, New Delhi. They were screened against adults of, Bactrocera dorsalis, larvae of Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton) and Spodoptera litura (Fab). By exposing the insects to 2–3 weeks old culture of (EPF) The pathogenicity of four isolates was proved, using contact method. Three isolates ITCC No. 6628, ITCC No. 6645 and B. NCIPM were found pathogenic to fruit flies; whereas, in case of C. cephalonica, pathogenicity of first two isolates in addition to (M. NCIPM) was proved. Mortality of adult fruit flies was 100% within 5–6 days of exposure, however, in case C. cephalonica (31–98%) within three weeks. Subsequently the pathogenic isolates were tested against Coccinella septumpunctata (L.) and C. cephalonica. Significant differences were observed among isolates, and the isolate B. NCIPM was found relatively safer to C. septumpunctata.
