Management of brinjal shoot and fruit borer (Leucinodes orbonalis Guen.) using selected bio-rational insecticides

Management of Brinjal Fruit and Shoot Borerleucinodes orbonalis (Guenee) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) through Trichogramma chilonis (Ishii) (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) and Selective Use of Insecticides

“…The result of Voliam flexi is similar to that of Kameshwaran and Kumar (2015) who concluded that chlorantraniliprole 20-SC is highly effective against brinjal fruit and shoot borer. These results are in line with Islam et al (2019) who reported the minimum brinjal fruit infestation in the plots where synthetic chemical insects were applied. The results of Neem oil are also same to that of Nasiruddin (2010) who observed that Neem oil reduced the brinjal fruit infestation in comparison to control plot.…”

“…Our findings are in line with Kameshwaran and Kumar (2015) who stated that the chlorantraniliprole 20SC effectively reduced the shoots and fruit infestation. The significant negative of synthetic insecticides on brinjal fruit and shoot borer is also reported Islam et al (2019). Neem oil results of this study are consistent with those of Rehman et al (2009) that Neem oil effectively decreased the shoot and fruit infestation as compared to control.…”

Efficacy of bio-rational pesticides for the management of Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee in Rupandehi, Nepal

“…However, in consideration of the detrimental effects of endosulfan, these are banned for use. Similarly, Tracer 45 SC (Spinosad) was found to be an effective pesticide over Emamectin Benzoate, which could be used to control the brinjal shoot and fruit borer in brinjal production (Islam et al, 2019). According to the findings of Satpathy and Mishra (2011), the response of L. orbonalis towards Neem seed kernel extract (4%) and the neem-based product Neemarin® was detrimental than that of ash dust.…”

“…Similarly, Abamectin, extracted from the soil bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis Kim and Goodfellow (Agarwal, 1998), which is a macrocyclic lactone disaccharide, is extensively used in agriculture (Nasr et al, 2016) for checking insect pest in various crops ranging from fruits and vegetables to ornamental crops (Lankas and Gordon, 1989). Abamectin was found to be effective to suppress BSFB infestation in brinjal fields where yield was significantly higher compared to control (Islam et al, 2019). Likewise, Emamectin benzoate is a novel macrocyclic lactone insecticide derived from naturally occurring avermectin isolated by fermentation from the soil microorganism, Streptomyces avermitilis (Ishaaya et al, 2002).…”

Comprehensive Review on the Bio-ecology and Integrated Management Strategies for Brinjal Shoot and Fruit Borer (Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee)

“…The bottom surface of fragile leaves, plant twigs, blooms, or fruit calyces was the favored location for females to deposit their eggs. Before hatching, the creamy white, oval shaped or slightly elongated eggs became orange with a noticeable black mark [35,102]. Alpuerto [6], [40], [57], [85], and [102] have all documented the pre-oviposition, oviposition, and post-oviposition periods, which are, respectively, 1.1 to 2.1 days, 1.4 to 4.0 days, and 1.0 to 2.0 days.…”
