Md Abdullah Al Mamun, Khandakar Shariful Islam, Mahbuba Jahan, Gopal Das Department of Entomology, Faculty of Agriculture, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh-2202, Bangladesh *Corresponding author Gopal Das Email: Abstract: Brinjal shoot and fruit borer (BSFB), Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee, is a serious pest of brinjal or eggplant (Solanum melongena L.). Due to increasing levels of resistance of L. orbonalis to different insecticides there is an urgent need to test new chemicals. Studies were carried out in the Entomology Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) to evaluate the efficacy of three insecticides viz., impale 20SL (imidacloprid), advantage 20EC (carbosulfan), libsen 45SC (spinosad) against the infestation of L. orbonalis. All the tested insecticides were found to be effective in controlling brinjal shoot and fruit borer although spinosad was the most effective. Minimum shoot damage and maximum protection was provided by spinosad (libsen 45SC) which was followed by carbosulfan (advantage 20 EC) and imidacloprid (impale 20 SL). Similarly, minimum fruit damage and maximum protection was also provided by spinosad but in contrast with shoot damage, imidacloprid was found comparatively effective than carbosulfan although the difference was insignificant. Moreover, minimum fruit loss and maximum protection was provided by spinosad which was followed by imidacloprid and carbosulfan. Therefore, all the insecticides were found significantly effective in comparison with that in the water-treated control regarding shoot and fruit damage as well as fruit losses caused by L.

BAYER CODE: LEUIOR 2. What is the reason for the PRA? There have been many interceptions of this species in the UK. Between June 1999 and May 2006, there were 40 finds. The majority of interceptions have been on Solanum melongena (aubergine), but L. orbonalis has also been intercepted on Solanum melongena var. serpentinum (snake-shaped eggplant), Solanum torvum (devils-fig), Syzygium cumini (black olum tree) and Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis (cow pea/black eyed pea). Most recent interceptions have been on produce imported from either India or Thailand, with the remaining interceptions from Bangladesh, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Pakistan and 4 of unknown origin (Annex 1). The number of interceptions per month is randomly dispersed1 (X2 =18.2, 11df) (Annex 1). 3. What is the PRA area? This PRA considers the whole EPPO region concentrating on the European and Mediterranean area, i.e. EPPO west of the Ural mountains. STAGE 2: PEST RISK ASSESSMENT 4. Does the pest occur in the PRA area or does it arrive regularly as a natural migrant? L. orbonalis does not occur in the PRA area, nor does it arrive as a natural migrant. However, it is occasionally detected in consignments of produce imported into the UK (see 2).

  • Management of Leucinodes Orbonalis Guenee on Eggplants During the Rainy Season in India
    JOURNAL OF PLANT PROTECTION RESEARCH Vol. 51, No. 4 (2011) MANAGEMENT OF LEUCINODES ORBONALIS GUENEE ON EGGPLANTS DURING THE RAINY SEASON IN INDIA Sudarshan Chakraborti1*, Pijush Kanti Sarkar2* Department of Agricultural Entomology Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Mohanpur, Nadia, West Bengal 741252, India Received: November 2, 2010 Accepted: January 14, 2011 Abstract: Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee (Pyraustidae: Lepidoptera) is a fruit and shoot borer which is the key pest of eggplant (also known as brinjal and aubergine). L. orbonalis causes broad-based problems in eggplant cultivation. An effort was made to control the borer during the Indian rainy season, as this is the time when the problem is at its worst. The impact of treatments on natural enemies as well as pollinators was also assessed. Integration of phytosanitation, mechanical control and prophylactic application of neem seed kernel extract (NSKE) exerted a satisfactory impact on the incidence and damage of L. orbonalis. After two need-based applications of new generation pesticide molecules like flubendiamide or rynaxypyr or emamectin benzoate, fairly good, healthy yields were pro- duced. A ready-mix formulation (triazophos 40% + cypermethrin 4%), and carbofuran also offered good protection against the borer but both were found highly toxic and unsafe for predators i.e. predatory coccinellids and spiders and pollinating bees. Flubendiamide and rynaxypyr appeared comparatively more unsafe for bees than emamectin benzoate, while both allowed a substantial proportion of coccinellids and spiders to survive. Naturolyte, with the active ingredient emamectin benzoate, was found safe for predators and bees and on par with the untreated check. Key words: bee, coccinellid, Leucinodes orbonalis, management, safety, spiders INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee, is a fruit and shoot bor- er which is the major problem in the cultivation of egg- Materials plants.

  • Leucinodes Orbonalis Eggplant Borer Published
    Eggplant Borer Leucinodes orbonalis Figure 1. Late instar caterpillar of Leucinodes orbonalis Background Leucinodes orbonalis (Guenée) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is frequently intercepted by the Plant Health Service in England and Wales on imports of aubergine from Asia and Africa. Between 1999 and 2008 it was intercepted on 104 occasions, 60 of these on Solanaceae from Asia. The caterpillar feeds inside the fruit, and so may not be detected until the damage is severe and secondary damage, such as rot, has taken effect. This damage can cause yield losses of more than 65% on aubergine in Asia. Whilst it is predominantly a tropical species, there is increasing concern that it could become established in the European Union, either in the Mediterranean member states, or in protected areas of cultivation in northern areas. One adult moth was caught in the UK at a light trap in Suffolk in 2006, but the origins of the specimen are unknown. Leucinodes orbonalis was added to the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation (EPPO) alert list in January 2008. Geographical Distribution Leucinodes orbonalis is found south of the Sahara in Africa. It has been recorded from Burundi, Cameroon, Congo, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sao Tome and Principe, Sierra Leone, Somalia, PLANT PEST FACTSHEET South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zaire, Zambia and Zimbabwe. In Asia it is widespread, recorded from Bangladesh, Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. There are also records from Saudi Arabia in the Middle East. Leucinodes orbonalis is currently absent from Europe, Oceania and North and South America.

  • Ipm Eggplant Borer.Pdf
    Introduction Eggplant fruit and shoot borer (EFSB), Leucinodes orbonalis, is the most damaging pest of eggplant in South and Southeast Asia. Its lar- vae feed inside eggplant fruit, making the fruit unmarketable and unfit for human consumption (Fig. 1). At times, entire crops can be lost. Farmers are currently using too many pesticides and applying them too frequently to control EFSB. This excessive pesticide usage threatens the health of farmers and consumers, pollutes the environment, besides making eggplant fruit costly to consumers. At the same time, frequent use of pesticides has made this insect tolerant to the chemicals, making it more difficult to con- trol. This guide will teach you a simple, safe, and economical method of controlling EFSB. This method has been successfully tested on farm- ers’ fields in Bangladesh and India. Fig. 1. Actual view and close-up of larva emerging from damaged fruit 1 How does EFSB look like and live? EFSB goes through four different forms in one lifetime (Fig. 2). Moths lay tiny white eggs, mainly on leaves. After 4–5 days, eggs turn into tiny translucent larvae. These larvae tunnel inside a tender shoot or fruit. It is the larvae feeding in- side eggplant fruit that are responsible for damage. After 15–20 days of feeding, a larva is full-grown, measuring 10–15 mm. It makes a small hole in the fruit or shoot and escapes to the soil at night. It forms a sturdy cocoon around itself near the soil surface, and rests as a pupa. The pupa looks like dried plant debris and is hard to recognize.

The works of earlier authors, like Burgess (1880),J ackson (1889),K ellogg (1893) being old are less authentic and are not easily available. Recent workers like Philpott (1927), Snodgrass (1928), Schmitt (1938), Pradhan & Aren (1941), Short (1951) andE astham & Eassa (1955) have studied only some particular aspects of the morphology. Madden (1944) andE reeman (1947) gave brief account of the external morphology of lepidopterons belonging to families Sphingidae and Torticidae respectively. V asudeva (1956) made exhaustive studies on the head of Papilio demoleus. But there is no general agreement among workers on the metamerism of the lepidopteron head and there exist many controvercies which need clarification.

ABSTRACT Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee, Brinjal fruit chemical ecology stimuli of relevance to the pest. and shoot borer (BFSB), is the major pest on brinjal world wide. Larvae of this pest cause the damage; 2. INTRODUCTION which at initial stages adversely affect the shoot growth, and in later stages diminish fruit quality. Eggplant or brinjal plant (Solanum Spraying of insecticides is the main pest control melongena) is an economically important plant used in method. This has been absolutely ineffective due to Asian countries, especially in Bangladesh, China, India, concealed habit of the larvae. Such a phenomenon Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Philippines and Thailand (1). apprehends to the development of insecticides Distribution of brinjal plant is higher in the areas with hot resistance which demands continuously increasing and humid climate as brinjal is known as a hardy plant doses.
