The insect pest during the crop period is of great study revealed that the succession of major insect importance in a particular set of climatic conditions pests population of different insect pest species (Jayanthi et al. 1993). Since no much information appeared on the crop from seedling stage till pod available on insect pest on the French bean, studies maturation (15-70 days after sowing) and the were under taken to ascertain the succession of maximum number of insect pests infested the crop insect pest on this crop. during vegetative and flowering stage and the crop was continuously attacked by one or more pests. MATERIAL AND METHODS Major pests found infesting the crop were Bean leaf The study was carried out under field webworm (Omiodes indicata), Spotted pod borer conditions, to know the pest scenario of French (Maruca vitrata), Stem fly (Ophiomyia phaseoli), Flea beans during both Kharif and Rabi season (2014- beetle (Monolepta signata), Aphids (Aphis 15).

The crop was raised as per the recommended package of Key words Pest Succession, Insect pest, French practices (Anon, 2013) except the plant protection bean, Phaselous vulgaris measures. Observations on insect pest population per plant were recorded from seedling stage till French bean is one of the most important maturity stage of the crop from twenty randomly leguminous vegetable crop. It is cultivated for the selected and tagged plants at weekly intervals. The tender vegetable, shelled green beans and dry beans time of appearance of the pests were observed and (rajmah). It is very rich in protein, vitamins and recorded. Adult insects were collected and minerals. French bean is a short duration crop and preserved for identification. The immature stages farmers get more profit in a short period. Both of different insect species occurring on the crop common dry bean and French beans have been was collected and reared in the laboratory till adult found to have potential for higher earnings and food emergence to confirm the species identity security in the country. But, in the last few years the production of grain legumes has declined due RESULTS AND DISCUSSION to the incidences of insect pests and diseases (Rao et al., 2000; Schroth et al., 2000).

  • Supporting Information Files
    Supporting Information Files Appendix S1 Definitions of the metrics used in this study to describe network structure. Network level parameters: (1) Species richness. Total number of plants and animals in the bipartite network. (2) Connectance. Realized proportion of possible links: sum of links divided by number of cells in the matrix (the latter being the product between the number of higher trophic level species –animals, in our case- and the number of lower trophic level species –plants, in our case). (3) Interaction asymmetry (or interaction strength asymmetry). Difference between the interaction strength (i.e. the relative frequency) of each animal species i on each plant species j and its reverse from the plant perspective, standardized by the sum of interaction strength values of species i on j and of species j on i (Bascompte et al. 2006; extended by Blüthgen 2010). Values vary between −1 and 1, where positive values indicate a high dependence of animal on plant species and negative values indicate the opposite. Given that this variable, by its mathematical definition, is closely associated with web asymmetry, this correlation is accounted with null models (see further details in Blüthgen 2010). Thus, for each network in the data set, we computed 1000 randomized interaction matrices simulated with the Patefield algorithm, which randomly redistributes interaction events among all cells of the matrix while holding the number of interaction events per species constant. Thus, web asymmetries were held constant in all simulated networks, while interactions were reallocated between pairs of species according to species interaction frequencies. The difference between observed asymmetries of interaction strength and the mean asymmetry of interaction strength across the 1000 simulations gives the null- model-corrected asymmetry of interaction strength.

Introduction The order Lepidoptera is the second largest order with over 1, 60,000 [1] described species of which over 12,000 species are recorded from India [2]. The superfamily Pyraloidea is the third [3] largest-having more than 16,000 described species worldwide . The familial composition of the Pyraloidea has changed markedly over the past 30 years, with a general decrease in the number of families and currently with only two families, Pyralidae and Crambidae. At the generic level, the family Pyralidae contains 1,067 genera and 6,233 described species and [4] Crambidae contains 9,654 species classified into 1,018 genera but many more species are undescribed, especially in the tropics.

  • Cardona Ch 22 Bean Insects
    Chapter 22 INSECTS AND OTHER INVERTEBRATE BEAN PESTS IN LATIN AMERICA Cesar Cardona* Introduction As with other crops, insects and other pests affect common or dry bean production before and after harvest. Many species have been listed as pests of common beans (King and Saunders, 1984; Manria and Cortez, 1975; Ruppel and Idrobo, 1962). The few that are recognized as economically important pests are listed in Table 1 according to their main feeding habits. The given division cannot be maintained strictly because the Mexican bean beetle and chryso- melids may also attack young pods while pod borers such as Epinotia and Heliothis, may also feed on leaves and buds. Slugs and spider mites are not insects but are listed because of their economic importance in certain areas. This chapter updates pertinent literature available on bean pests in Latin America, with emphasis on bean-pest ecology and non- chemical control methods. Emphasis is also given to those insects or pest situations for which valuable, new information has been published since 1980 (van Schoonhoven and Cardona, 1980). Geographical Distribution of Important Bean Pests A simplified distribution of the principal bean pests in Latin America is shown in Figure A. Documentation on the bean-pest complex has improved since 1980. New authoritative descriptive reviews have been published. Table 2 lists general references on the insect fauna registered on beans in Latin America. * Entomologist, Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (C1AT), Cali, Colombia. 505 Table 1.

Data on the parasitoids that attack a given host species can be used as negative evidence concerning the candidate whose host range is being evaluated. By compiling studies for a variety of host species, one can delineate those taxa unlikely to be attacked by the candidate. Using a retrospective case study of a parasitoid introduced into North America, we describe (1) this approach to using the literature to evaluate host range and (2) how well predictions based on such an evaluation match actual host range. Based on the host range of Macrocentrus grandii in Eurasia as reported in the literature, we predicted that the species in the genus Ostrinia are the most likely hosts. Of native North American species, Ostrinia obumbratalis is the only non-target species likely to be attacked by M. grandii. The predicted host range for North America matched the actual host range found in the field.

The monophyly of Pyraloidea and the two families (Pyralidae and Crambidae) is well supported by phylogenetic analyses based on morphology and molecular data of multiple nuclear genes. However, only a few mito-phylogenetic analyses have been conducted and no mitogenome of Odontiinae species has been reported. Three complete mitogenomes of odontiine species were sequenced and analyzed for the first time herein. The results showed that Odontiinae mitogenomes shared similar genomic characters with other Pyraloidea. The phylogenetic analyses based on 13 PCGs of mitogenomes confirmed the monophyly of Odontiinae and its position Citation: Qi, M.; Zhao, H.; Yu, F.; within Crambidae. Zhang, A.; Li, H. The First Mitogenomes of the Subfamily Abstract: The complete mitochondrial genomes of three species of Odontiinae were newly sequenced: Odontiinae (Lepidoptera, Crambidae) Dausara latiterminalis Yoshiyasu, Heortia vitessoides (Moore), and Pseudonoorda nigropunctalis (Hamp- and Phylogenetic Analysis of son).
