Background: Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is cultivated in almost all parts of world covering more than 50 countries spread over Asia, Africa Europe, Australia, north America and South America countries and is the second most important food legumes crop after common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Chickpea has played a major role in realization of pulse Revolution in india making the country near self-sufficient in pluses. Gram is extensively grow in india. Due to its high nutritional value and its ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen, its more widely cultivated rabi pulse crop. The gram pod borer Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) is most important pest of chickpea. Many pesticides were so far tested against this pest but due to over use of these pesticides resistance, residue and resurgence problems arises, beside destruction of natural enemies. Methods: To determination of per cent pod damage and yield of chickpea due to different larval density of H. armigera is an important tool to reduce the cost of cultivation by avoiding the unnecessary use of pesticides. Therefore, a pot experiment was conducted in arranged in a completed randomized design with four replications. The pots were placed under natural field conditions and take observation at Research farm, Rajasthan Agricultural Research Institute, Durgapura, Jaipur during 2015-16 and 2016-17. Result: The results revealed that least per cent pod damage (29.05, 24.78%) was recorded when the larval population was one per plant, while the maximum pod damage (64.55 and 67.76%) was recorded during 2015-16 and 2016-17, respectively. The simple liner correlation analysis indicated that there was a significant positive correlation (r= 0.989 and 0.999) between the larval density and per cent pod damage. Further, a significant correlation was noticed between larval density and number of healthy pods per plant, reduction in yield, yield per plant, total number of pod and damaged pods were -0.964, -0.976; 0.98, 0.986; -0.98, -0.986; 0.117, 0.126 and; 0.985 and 0.992, respectively during 2015-16 and 2016-17.

Weekly larval populations of pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) collected from 20 districts of Maharashtra under Crop Pest Surveillance and Advisory Project (CROPSAP) during 2010-2015 were analyzed to work out the effect of weather variables on the incidence of this insect on soybean. The appearance of larva was observed throughout the soybean growing season, and the peak incidence was observed during third week of August to first week of September (34-35 SMW). The correlation analysis of the data revealed that larval population was significantly and positively influenced by the minimum temperature and rainfall of current week as well as previous two weeks. For the development of forewarning model, data for the period from 2010 to 2013 were used as training dataset and two year (2014-2015) data as validation dataset. The mean model used for forewarning the incidence of pod borer larval population was developed by using step-wise multiple regression analysis in polynomial form. The results of mean model revealed that the significant variables affecting the pod borer larval population in soybean were maximum temperature (current and 1st lag week), and rainfall (current week) and the model explained 48.93% variation. The pre-disposing conditions for the incidence of larvae have been worked out as maximum temperature ranging from 26.1 to 31.47 ºC and rainfall ranging from 6.63 to 141.46 mm with low or medium rainfall in previous weeks followed by high in current week. The model was validated with 2014-15 independent dataset with predicted R2 (R2 ) value 28.13%. Two sample t-test showed no Pred significant difference between observed and predicted values (p = 0.3691 > 0.05).

<p>ABSTRAK<br />Entomopatogen dari genus Steinernema berpotensi digunakan<br />sebagai pengendali berbagai serangga hama, terutama ordo Lepidoptera,<br />seperti  Helicoverpa  armigera.  Penggunaan  Steinernema  untuk<br />pengendalian H. armigera akan menguntungkan karena aman terhadap<br />lingkungan, mudah diproduksi massal, toleran terhadap berbagai macam<br />pestisida, dapat aktif mencari serangga sasaran, tidak menyebabkan<br />resisten dan resurjensi, serta dapat diaplikasikan dengan alat semprot<br />standar. Namun, formula pestisida hayati mengandung Steinernema masih<br />sangat terbatas. Tujuan penelitian adalah membuat formula Steinernema<br />sp. yang efektif terhadap hama penggerek buah kapas (H. armigera).<br />Penelitian dilaksanakan di laboratorium Patologi Serangga, Balai<br />Penelitian Tanaman Pemanis dan Serat, Malang mulai bulan Mei-Juli<br />2010. Larva instar III Steinernema sp. dibuat dalam 6 macam formula<br />perlakuan dengan bahan pembawa (carrier) berbeda-beda, yaitu (1)<br />suspensi (akuades + sukrosa), (2) pellet-2 (sekam padi), (3) pellet-1<br />(tanah liat + arang), (4) agar + spon, (5) kapsul (Ca-alginat), dan (6)<br />kontrol (akuades). Setiap formula diinokulasikan 10 6 juvenil infektif (JI).<br />Masing-masing perlakuan disusun dalam rancangan acak lengkap (RAL)<br />dengan tiga kali ulangan. Penurunan jumlah juvenil infektif (JI) pada<br />setiap formula yang diamati per minggu selama ± 4 minggu. Isolat yang<br />digunakan untuk penelitian ini berasal dari Asembagus. Untuk<br />mengevaluasi efektivitas formula, larva H. armigera diperlakukan dengan<br />JI yang berasal dari masing-masing formula setiap minggu selama empat<br />minggu. Perlakuan ini menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap dengan<br />empat ulangan. Jumlah penurunan JI setiap minggu selama empat minggu<br />setelah perlakuan. Persentase JI yang hidup pada pellet-1, suspensi, pellet-<br />2, agar + spon, kapsul, dan kontrol berturut-turut sebesar 53; 12,4; 44;<br />63,8; 17,6; dan 5%. Pada minggu pertama sampai minggu keempat setelah<br />perlakuan terlihat bahwa formula yang paling baik mempertahankan JI<br />adalah agar + spon dan kemudian berturut-turut diikuti oleh pellet-1,<br />pellet-2, kapsul, suspensi. Steinernema sp. yang disimpan selama empat<br />minggu dalam berbagai bentuk formula terhadap H. armigera berkisar<br />antara 80-99%. Formula agar dan spon paling baik untuk menyimpan<br />Steinernema sp. selama empat minggu, karena formula ini memberikan<br />tingkat viabilitas dan efektivitas Steinernema sp. paling tinggi.<br />Kata kunci : efektivitas, formula, Helicoverpa armigera, Steinernema sp.,<br />viabilitas</p><p>ABSTRACT<br />Entomopathogenic nematodes genus Steinernema for are potential<br />to be used as a control for various insect pests, especially ordo<br />Lepidoptera, such as Helicoverpa armigera. The use of Steinernema to<br />control H. armigera is beneficial because it is environmentally friendly,<br />easy to produce, tolerant to several pesticides, actively search the target<br />insect, does not cause resistance and resurgence, and can be applied by<br />using standard sprayer. Unfortunately, biological pesticide containing<br />Steinernema is still limited. The study was aimed at formulating a<br />biological agen containing Steinernema sp. to control the cotton bollworm<br />weevil (H. armigera). The experiment was conducted at insect pathology<br />laboratory, Indonesian Sweetener and Fiber Crops Research Institute,<br />Malang from May to July 2010. Steinernema sp. instar III larvae was<br />formulated in six different forms such as Pellet-1 (clay+carbon),<br />suspension (distilled water+sucrose), Pellet-2 (rice husk), agar+sponge,<br />capsule (Ca-alginate), and control (distilled water). Each formulation was<br />inoculated with 10 6 Infective Juvenile (IJ). Each treatment was arranged in<br />completely randomized design (CRD) with three replicates. Each<br />formulation observed showed decrease in IJ number every week for + 4<br />weeks. Isolates used for this research were originated from Asembagus<br />experimental station. For evaluation of the formulation effectiveness, H.<br />armigera larvae was treated using IJ from the formula weekly for four<br />weeks. On the first week after treatment, the percentages of living IJ in<br />Pellet-1, suspension, Pellet-2, agar+sponge, capsule, and control were 53;<br />12.4; 44; 63.8; 17.6; and 5%, respectively. Effectiveness of Steinernema<br />sp. stored for four weeks in various formulations against H. armigera<br />ranged from 80-99%. The best formula of Steinernema sp for storage was<br />agar+sponge because of its ability to viability and effectiveness of<br />Steinernema sp.<br />Key words: effectiveness, formulation, Helicoverpa armigera, viability,<br />Steinernema sp.,</p>

Helicoverpa armigera (H&uuml;bner, 1805) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a cosmopolitan pest with wide geographical distribution in Brazil. This pest was officially registered in 2013 on cotton, soybean, corn, and some weeds, although this species may have been present in the country since 2008. The objective of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of eight insecticides (seven chemicals and a biological product) to control small and large H. armigera caterpillars. The experiment was conducted under laboratory conditions (T 22&plusmn;1 &deg;C; RH 70&plusmn;10%; 12h photoperiod), with nine treatments (g a.i./ha dose): flubendiamide (72), chlorantraniliprole + lambda-cyhalothrin (30 + 15), chlorfenapyr (288), spinetoran (18), indoxacarb (120), emamectin benzoate (10), metomil (322.5), Bacillus thuringiensis (500), and control (water). A completely randomized design was used with four replications for each size of caterpillars (small and large), and each repetition (plot) consisted of five H. armigera caterpillars fed with bean leaves immersed in the different treatments evaluated. The larval mortality evaluations were performed at one, three, five, and seven days after contact with the treated bean leaves, determining the control efficiency (E%) through the formula of Abbott (1925). All chemical and biological treatments tested caused significant mortality of small and large H. armigera caterpillars, reaching a control percentage of 100% at seven days after treatment, demonstrating the possibility of using the insecticides tested to control this pest under field conditions.
