Volume 4, Issue 6 (Jan. – Feb. 2013), PP 09-12 www.iosrjournals.org Pesticidal activity of Pakistani Bacillus thuringiensis isolates against Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) and Earias vittella (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). 1Kausar Malik, 2Farkhanda Jabeen, 3Mir Muhammad Ali Talpur, 4Shagufta Andleeb and 5Amjad Farooq 1Department of Zoology, Lahore College for Women University, Lahore, Pakistan. 2,3Former address: National Centre of Excellence in Molecular Biology, University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. Abstract: A large number of Bacillus thuringiensis isolates separated from different ecological regions of Pakistan were analysed for pesticidal activity against two lepidopteran cotton insect pests, American bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera and spotted bollworm (Earias vittella). The biological activity of local B.t. isolates demonstrated a wide range of LC50 values against both target pests. The most potent isolates HW 4.4 and INS2.25 against Helicoverpa armigera showed LC50 value of 9ng/mg of artificial diet. The Lc50 value of 2ng/mg of artificial diet was exhibited by local B.t. isolates HFZ 11.3, MR 19.1 and MG 2.6 against Earias vittella. Keywords:Pakistani, Bacillus thuringiensis, Earias vittella, Helicoverpa armigera, Isolate, Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, I. Introduction Microbial control of insect pest of crops using entomopathogens is an ecologically sound pest management strategy. Although insect viruses and fungal pathogens are used as microbial control agents, but Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner (B.t.) appears to has the greatest potential for this purpose. Bacillus thuringiensis is an aerobic, spore forming, Gram-positive bacterium that synthesizes a crystalline parasporal inclusion composed of one of several proteins known as insecticidal crystal proteins (ICP) or delta-endotoxins during sporulation.

  • Assessment of Some Botanicals on the Life-Table
    Pratibha & Singh RJLBPCS 2018 www.rjlbpcs.com Life Science Informatics Publications Original Research Article DOI: 10.26479/2018.0406.53 ASSESSMENT OF SOME BOTANICALS ON THE LIFE-TABLE PARAMETERS OF OKRA MOTH, EARIAS VITTELLA (FABR.) (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE) Pratibha, Rajendra Singh* Department of Zoology, D.D.U. Gorakhpur University, Gorakhpur, U. P, India ABSTRACT: The okra moth Earias vittella is one of the dangerous pests attacking okra in India. The present study was conducted aiming at evaluation of effects of various botanicals, viz., aqueous extract of garlic bulb (AEG), aqueous extract of neem leaves (AEN) and NeemGold (NG) on the life-table parameters of this insect. Different concentrations of each botanical had been applied on the host plant, Abelmoschus esculentus. The current investigation recorded significant reduction of the age-specific survivorship, reproductive and net fecundity rates; intrinsic rate of natural increase and doubling time of the population of the pest while generation time remains unaffected. Also, longevity of the adult females was remarkably shortened. The strongest shortening action was determined by NG, followed by AEG and AEN, respectively. Total fecundity rate (Rt) was reduced to 102.17 (AEG), 68.00 (AEN), 54.67 (NG), 235.67 progeny/female (Control), respectively and net reproductive rate (Ro) were 52.00 (AEG), 33.83 (AEN), 26.50 (NG) and control was 119.67daughter/female. Likewise, values of the intrinsic rate (rm) were 0.1689 (AEG), 0.1524 (AEN), 0.1440 (NG), 0.2035 (control), respectively. The generation time (GT) insignificantly varied between 22.79 to23.51 days. Reproductive periods and post-reproductive periods were significantly affected (decreased) by the tested botanicals.

In case of both CSIs, the highest mortality was found @ 1.0 ml/L that was followed by 0.75 ml and 0.50 ml/L respectively. Likewise, the highest body weight reduction was also found from 1.0 ml/L. In both cases, the concentration 0.5 ml/L was found less effective.

  • Technical Bulletin Setting the Standard for Food Safety and Pest Management Solutions
    Technical Bulletin Setting the Standard for Food Safety and Pest Management Solutions May 2019 Volume 9, Issue 5 Do you really understand what I said? As I think back to my early experiences with food safety I was not often told to wash or when to wash may hands I was told I must wear gloves. Additionally, I was only trained for my specific job duty. However, if I ever changed duties, I was expected to know how to do the job without any oversight or being told the limits or responsibilities. Food Safety is more than what you say, it is how the person on the other end of the conversation interprets what you say. Food handlers are often expected to know all food safety regulations with little to no training. Did you know the FDA food code is over 700 pages? The Food Code is a reference document that health agencies model their own state or local codes around. Let’s test you brain: Do you know how many chapters there are in the FDA food Code, and which chapter applies to which section? A food handler may only be responsible for Chapters 2- 4 but operate in and around the other 5 chapters. So, you got it now are eight chapters, but which one applies to personal hygiene, plumbing, food, physical facilities? Most certified food managers are required to be three quarters knowledgeable in food safety, so there is always room from improvement. This is the minimum rating for a Certified Food Safety Manager on national accredited exams.
