Rice Leaf Folder

The experiment was conducted at the field of Rice Research Institute Dokri, Larkana, Pakistan to evaluate the efficacy of different insecticides against Rice Leaf folder (Cnaphalocrosis medinalis) under field conditions, different insecticides were applied on recommended dose. The experiment was conducted in RCBD design with 3 Replications and 5 Treatments. The leaf damage and insect pest population were observed before spray and 1,3,5,7 and 14 days respectively. The results shown that all the treated plots reduced damage minimized insect pest population and increased yield at significant level compare to control. Minimum damage of leaves was recorded in T-03 Belt 480SC (3.76%) leaves/Plant compare to T-05 Control (28.96%) leaves/plant. The results revealed that the 1st application reduced population at significant level up to seven days but population started rebuilding among all treated plots Maximum control was observed in T-03 Notice 0.22/Plant on 5-DAA & 0.24/Plant on 7-DAA. Similarly, the 2nd application also produced desirable results against Rice leaf folder population at significant level among all treated plots except control plots. Maximum controlled was observed in T-3 Belt 480SC, 0.24, 0.5 and 0.54/plant in 5-DAA, 7-DAA and 14-DAA respectively. Maximum yield increase in T-03 Belt 480SC (20.47%), followed by T-01 Notice (19.21). Results shown that the pest appearance the time of booting caused more damage to flag leave, at the time of flowering reduced gain filling and ultimately yield losses were observed.

Представлены результаты изучения влияния предпосевной обработки семян на растения конопли посевной с целью совершенствования технологии возделывания. Применение изучаемых препаратов положительно действовало на энергию прорастания, всхожесть и урожайность растений. В лабораторных условиях отмечено достоверное увеличение всхожести семян при применении препаратов Альбит, ТПС и Биокомплекс БТУ на 5,0 и 7,2 % на сорте Вера, при применении препаратов ТМТД, ВСК и Биокомплекс БТУ – на 5,2 и 5,0 % соответственно на сорте Надежда. В полевых условиях показатель всхожести увеличивался по сравнению с контролем на 4,2-5,6 % у сорта Вера и на 1,8-8,5 % у сорта Надежда. За годы исследований урожайность семян конопли посевной в результате применения протравителей по всем вариантам опыта изменялась на сорте Вера в пределах 0,78-0,96 т/га и 0,66-0,84 т/га на сорте Надежда. Наибольшая прибавка урожайности на сорте Вера отмечена на вариантах с предпосевной обработкой семян препаратами Бункер, ВСК, Лигногумат и Альбит, ТПС. На сорте Надежда установлена максимальная урожайность семян на вариантах с обработкой препаратами Бенорад, СП, Бункер, ВСК и Альбит, ТПС, прибавка урожайности составила 0,16-0,18 т/га или 24,2-27,3 % к контролю. This work presents the results of studying the influence of pre-planting seed cultivation on hemp plants in order to improve the cultivation technology. The implementation of the studied drugs had a positive effect on the germinating power, germination and yield of plants. In laboratory conditions there was a significant increase in seed germination when using drugs Albit, TPS (liquid paste) and BTU Biocomplex 5.0 and 7.2 % for the variety Vera in the use of drugs TMTD, VSK and BTU Biocomplex – 5.2 and 5.0 %, respectively in the variety Nadezhda. In the field conditions, the germination rate increased by 4.2-5.6 % in the Vera variety and 1.8-8.5 % in the Nadezhda variety compared to the control. Over the years of research, the yield of hemp seeds, as a result of the use of disinfectants for all options of the experiment, changed on the Vera variety in the range of 0.78-0.96 t/ha and 0.66-0.84 t/ha on the Nadezhda variety. The greatest increase in yield on the Vera variety was noted in the options with pre-planting cultivation of seeds with Bunker, VSK, Lignohumate and Albit, TPS. On the Nadezhda variety, the maximum yield of seeds was set on options with cultivation with Benorad, SP, Bunker, VSK and Albit, TPS, the yield increase was 0.16-0.18 t/ha or 24.2-27.3 % to control.

Spodoptera litura an important insect pest of groundnut causes yield loss up to 71% in India. Though many effective chemicals are available to control Spodoptera, host plant resistance is the most desirable, economic and eco-friendly strategy. In the present study, groundnut mini core (184), recombinant inbred lines (318) and elite genotypes (44) were studied for their reaction to Spodoptera litura under hot spot location at Dharwad. Heritable component of variation existed for resistance to Spodoptera in groundnut mini core, recombinant inbred lines and elite genotypes indicating scope for selection of Spodoptera resistant genotypes. Only 29 (15%) genotypes belonging to hypogaea, fastigiata and hirsuta botanical varieties under mini core set, 15 transgressive segregants belonging to fastigiata botanical variety among 318 recombinant inbred lines and three genotypes belonging to hypogaea and fastigiata botanical varieties under elite genotypes showed resistance to Spodoptera litura with less than 10% leaf damage. Negative correlation existed between resistance to Spodoptera and days to 50 per cent flowering indicating late maturing nature of resistant genotypes. Eight resistant genotypes (ICG 862, ICG 928, ICG 76, ICG 2777, ICG 5016, ICG 12276, ICG 4412 and ICG 9905) under hypogaea botanical variety also had significantly higher pod yield. These diverse genotypes could serve as potential donors for incorporation of Spodoptera resistance in groundnut.

The wheat stem sawfly, Cephus cinctus Norton (Hymenoptera: Cephidae), is an insect pest in dryland wheat cropping systems in the southern Canadian Prairies and the northern Great Plains of the United States (Morrill 1997). Yield losses caused by C. cinctus are due to reduced head weight (Holmes 1977; Morrill et al. 1992) and lodging, which decreases harvest efficiency. Estimates of yield losses in Montana alone are about US$25 million per year.

Quantification of Avoidable Yield Losses in OilseedBrassicaCaused by Insect PestsA six year field study was conducted from 2001-2002 to 2006-2007 at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, India to study the losses in seed yield of differentBrassicaspecies (B. juncea, B. napus, B. carinata, B. rapaandEruca sativa) by the infestation of insect pests. The experiment was conducted in two different sets viz. protected/sprayed and unprotected, in a randomized block design, with three replications. Data on the infestation of insect pests, and seed yield were recorded at weekly intervals and at harvest, respectively. The loss in seed yield, due to mustard aphid and cabbage caterpillar, varied from 6.5 to 26.4 per cent.E. sativasuffered the least loss in seed yield and harboured the minimum population of mustard aphid (2.1 aphids/plant) and cabbage caterpillar (2.4 larvae/plant). On the other hand,B. carinatawas highly susceptible to the cabbage caterpillar (26.2 larvae/plant) and suffered the maximum yield loss (26.4%).

AbstractExtreme high-temperature events are the key factor to determine population dynamics of the rice leaf folder,Cnaphalocrocis medinalis(Guenée), in summer. Although we know that adult of this insect can migrate to avoid heat stress, the behavioral response of larva to high temperature is still unclear. Therefore, impacts of high temperature on behavioral traits ofC. medinalisincluding host choice, settling and folding leaf were observed. The results revealed that these behavioral traits were clearly influenced by high temperature. The larvae preferred maize leaves rather than rice and wheat at normal temperature of 27°C, but larvae experienced a higher temperature of 37 or 40°C for 4 h preferred rice leaves rather than maize and wheat. Capacity of young larvae to find host leaves or settle on the upper surface of leaves significantly reduced when they were treated by high temperature. High temperature of 40°C reduced the leaf-folding capacity of the third instar larvae, but no effects were observed on the fourth and fifth instar larvae. Short-term heat acclimation could not improve the capacity of the third instar larvae to make leaf fold under 40°C.

Weed management is one of the major challenges in viticulture, as long as weeds can cause significant yield losses and severe competition to the cultivations. In this direction, the development of an automated procedure for weed monitoring will provide useful data for understanding their management practices. In this work, a new image-based technique was developed in order to provide maps based on weeds’ height at the inter-row path of the vineyards. The developed algorithms were tested in many datasets from vineyards with different levels of weed development. The results show that the proposed technique gives promising results in various field conditions.
