“…There is also disagreed with Joshi et al (2018) with their results regarding the negative effect of rainfall on the population P. perpusilla but results are agreed with the positive correlation of P. perpusilla (eggs) with rainfall. Mahesh et al (2019) also reported significant positive correlation of P. perpusilla population with humidity.…”

“…Chaudhary and Sharma (1990) recorded the peak activity of P. perpusilla in the 2 nd fortnight of August which started decrease till the last week of September. Similarly, Mahesh et al (2019) studied population of P. perpusilla for three years and reported the peak abundance of this pest during August and September. The variations in the appearance and peak activity of P. perpusilla during different time of the year may due to differences in areas climatic conditions ( Joshi et al, 2018).…”

Pyrilla perpusilla (Walker) is one of the devastating pests which decrease yield directly and indirectly of sugarcane crop. For the safe management of P. perpusilla, field experiments were conducted to find the population of Pyrilla perpusilla on 12 different sugarcane varieties under field conditions at two different districts Charsadda and district Dera Ismail Khan of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Plot size 36×16 m (length × width) was selected in both localities for the cultivation of sugarcane varieties (CP77/400,

“…The high population of Trichogramatidae is assumed to be responsible for a reduced population of leafhoppers, flies, and thrips on agroforestry land. Leafhoppers have natural enemies; the most of these are egg parasitoids, with the rest including nymph and adult parasitoids (Mahesh et al, 2019). In Asia, the parasitoid Trichogrammatidae is an important natural enemy of agricultural pests, including Hemipteran insect pests (Triapitsyn et al, 2018).…”

Land use and management must be carried out to ensure the sustainability of land ecological function. The presence of natural enemies that suppress pest populations is an essential component of the ecological function. Monitoring the presence of natural enemies and avoiding silvicultural activities that threaten the presence of natural enemies are important aspects of land management. This study investigates the presence of natural enemies on three different land uses: agroforestry, community forests, and pioneer lands. Insect monitoring was carried out at an established plot (20 m × 20 m) for three months using passive sampling (pitfalls and sticky traps) placed using a grid and a diagonal method. The study surveyed phytophagous insects, such as leafhoppers, flies, thrips, and aphids. However, most specimens captured were represented by the natural enemies; Hymenoptera consists of predators (Formicidae) and parasitic wasps (Trichogrammatidae and Scelionidae). The results show that community forests and pioneer lands support the existence of Formicidae. This study indicates that in agroforestry, there are variations in the population of Formicidae based on the period of ongoing land management. Agroforestry provides a more suitable place for the existence of Trichogrammatidae and Scelionidae.

“…The infestation rate of the borer was calculated using the following formula: Repeated measures ANOVA was applied to the data of shoot borer with May and October observations as the levels of between-group factor, three years of study (2013-15) as the levels of within-subject repeated measure factor and the eight divisions as replications after arcsin transformation, as in our earlier study with sugarcane pyrilla (Mahesh et al 2019). Box plots were used for graphical depiction of means; the analyses were performed using StatSoft Inc. (2004).…”

Status of sugarcane shoot borer Chilo infuscatellus Snellen (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) in the sugarcane command area of Pudukottai and Thanjavur districts lying in the Cauvery delta zone of Tamil Nadu, India, was assessed in May and October during 2013-2015. Infestation levels of the borer varied among eight divisions of the command area, two seasons and three years. In May, mean infestation rate was the highest in Vallathirakottai division (44.32%) and lowest in Andakulam division (37.86%). In October, the highest mean infestation rate was observed in Avanam (37.99%) and the lowest in Andakulam (25.49%). Repeated measures ANOVA analysis indicated that mean shoot borer infestation rate was significantly higher (40.84%) in May than in October (31.24%). Also, mean infestation rate was significantly lower in 2013 than in 2015. The possible factors responsible for the observed variation are discussed.
