  • Ecological Studies on Mango Leaf Webber (Orthaga Exvinaceahamp.)
    Internat. J. agric. Sci. Vol.2 No.2 July 2006 : (308-311) 308 Ecological studies on mango leaf webber (Orthaga exvinacea Hamp.) in Andhra Pradesh as a basis for IPM M. Kannan*1 and N. Venugopala Rao Department of Entomology, S.V. Agricultural College, TIRUPATI (A.P.) INDIA ABSTRACT The influence of ecological factors viz., biotic (Host plant) and abiotic factors (weather parameters) on the abundance and population fluctuation of leaf webber, Orthaga exvinacea (Hamp.) on mango under the conditions of Chittoor district were worked out. Peak incidence was observed during first fortnight of November (19.4 webs/tree). However, gradual increase was observed from the first fortnight of July (2.6 webs/tree) and declined during second fortnight of January (3.2 webs/tree). Correlation studies between incidence and weather parameters showed positive relationship with minimum temperature, relative humidity and rainfall and negative relationship with maximum temperature. None of the varieties was free from infestation. The infestation ranged from 7.80 to 29.47 webs/tree, 5.82 to 22.55 leaves/web and 1.92 to 29.47 larvae/tree. Variety Neelum showed less infestation, while Bangalore showed severe infestation and other varieties viz., Neeleghan, Cherakurasam, Mulgova, Rumani, Baneshan and Swarnajahangir have moderate infestation. Result of the study also revealed that older mango trees (15 and above years old) were more susceptible (18.26, 348.75, 121.61 webs/tree, webbed leaves/tree and larva/ tree, respectively) to leaf webber damage than young trees (0-5 years old). Key Words: Mango leaf webber, Ecological studies, Varietal susceptibility, Abiotic factors INTRODUCTION Impact of abiotic factors on population dynamics of leaf webber Mango, Mangifera indica is an important fruit crop of India.

Journal of the Entomological Research Society, 20(3), 67-73. 68 VARSHNEY, R., H. M., Y. INTRODUCTION Mirid bugs of the tribe Termatophylini are known to inhabit inflorescences, moth larval galleries or rolled bark. They are known to feed on thrips, besides feeding on nectar and pollen (Cassis, 1995; Cassis et al., 2011; Yasunaga et al., 2001). Three species of the genus Termatophylidea Reuter and Poppius were reported to attack on the cacao thrips, occupying the niche shared by anthocorids. It is assumed that these mirids are obligate predators and feed exclusively on thrips.

  • TWO FORMS of "BE" in MALAYALAM1 Tara Mohanan and K.P
    TWO FORMS OF "BE" IN MALAYALAM1 Tara Mohanan and K.P. Mohanan National University of Singapore 1. INTRODUCTION Malayalam has two verbs, uNTE and aaNE, recognized in the literature as copulas (Asher 1968, Variar 1979, Asher and Kumari 1997, among others). There is among speakers of Malayalam a clear, intuitively perceived meaning difference between the verbs. One strong intuition is that uNTE and aaNE correspond to the English verbs "have" and "be"; another is that they should be viewed as the "existential" and "equative" copulas respectively.2 However, in a large number of contexts, these verbs appear to be interchangeable. This has thwarted the efforts of a clear characterization of the meanings of the two verbs. In this paper, we will explore a variety of syntactic and semantic environments that shed light on the differences between the constructions with aaNE and uNTE. On the basis of the asymmetries we lay out, we will re-affirm the intuition that aaNE and uNTE are indeed equative and existential copulas respectively, with aaNE signaling the meaning of “x is an element/subset of y" and uNTE signaling the meaning of existence of an abstract or concrete entity in the fields of location or possession. We will show that when aaNE is interchangable with uNTE in existential clauses, its function is that of a cleft marker, with the existential meaning expressed independently by the case markers on the nouns. Central to our exploration of the two copulas is the discovery of four types of existential clauses in Malayalam, namely: Neutral: with the existential verb uNTE.

Ajaykumar Department of Zoology, Division of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, University of Calicut, Kerala- 673635, India Article Received on: 06/01/12 Revised on: 09/02/12 Approved for publication: 18/02/12 *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The peptide hormone present in the brain-retrocerebral complexes of the mango leaf webber Orthaga exvinacea (Pyralidae: Lepidoptera) belonging to the adipokinetic hormone/red pigment-concentrating hormone family have different functions. The activity of the hormone extract tested both in vivo (heterologous bioassays against the polyphagous plant bug Iphita limbata) and in vitro clearly indicated that they are involved in lipid (adipokinetic hormones) and carbohydrate (hyperglycaemic hormones) release by activating fat body lipase and glycogen phosphorylase respectively. Injection of hormone extract (5 µl) containing one gland pair equivalent (gpe) elicited significant hyperlipaemic (up to 15%, P<0.001) and hyperglycaemic effects (up to 18%, P<0.05), whereas in the control, injection of 5 µl of insect saline did not evoke any such effects. The brain-retrocerebral complex extract showed significant effect on fat body lipid mobilization (up to 17%, P<0.05) and fat body sugar release (up to 18%, P<0.001). HPLC separation of the peptides followed by analysis of the fractions for activities confirmed that the peptide hormone extracted has a pivotal role in the mobilization of these metabolites.

    EFFECTS OF BLOOD FEEDING ON THE TRANSCRIPTOME OF THE MALPIGHIAN TUBULES IN THE ASIAN TIGER MOSQUITO AEDES ALBOPICTUS Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master in Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Carlos J. Esquivel Palma, B.S. Graduate Program in Entomology The Ohio State University 2015 Master’s Examination Committee: Dr. Peter M. Piermarini, Advisor Dr. David L. Denlinger Dr. Andrew P. Michel Copyright by Carlos J. Esquivel Palma 2015 Abstract Mosquitoes are one of the major threats to human health worldwide. They are vectors of protozoans, arboviruses, and filarial nematodes that cause diseases in humans and animals. The Asian tiger mosquito Aedes albopictus is a vector of medically important arboviruses such as dengue fever, chikungunya fever, yellow fever, eastern equine encephalitis, La Crosse encephalitis, and West Nile fever. Control of these diseases often involves control of the mosquito vectors with chemical insecticides. However, the use of a limited number of chemicals with similar modes of actions has led to resistance in several mosquito species. The development of new insecticides with novel modes of action is considered a promising strategy to overcome resistance. The Piermarini lab has recently shown that the renal (Malpighian) tubules of mosquitoes are promising physiological targets to disrupt for killing mosquitoes via a novel mode of action. The Malpighian tubules play a critical role in the acute processing of blood meals, by mediating the rapid excretion of water and ions derived from the ingested blood. However, the physiological roles of Malpighian tubules during the chronic processing of blood meals after the initial diuresis is complete (~1-2 h after feeding) are not known.

    Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies 2017; 5(2): 1196-1199 E-ISSN: 2320-7078 P-ISSN: 2349-6800 Incidence and distribution pattern of leaf webber JEZS 2017; 5(2): 1196-1199 © 2017 JEZS (Orthaga exvinacea Hamp.) on mango Received: 07-01-2017 Accepted: 08-02-2017 N Kasar N Kasar, JC Marak, UK Das and S Jha Department of Agricultural Entomology, Bidhan Chandra Abstract Krishi Viswavidyalaya, A field investigation was carried out to study the incidence and distribution pattern of mango leaf Mohanpur, Nadia, West Bengal, webber, Orthaga exvinacea Hampson during 2012-13 and 2013-14 at mango orchard of Bidhan Chandra 741252, India Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Mohanpur, Nadia, West Bengal. The results indicated that the most active period of mango leaf webber in both years was found from August to December. The distribution study of leaf JC Marak webs within the tree revealed that western and southern side had more number of webs in comparison to Department of Agricultural Entomology, Bidhan Chandra the northern and eastern side respectively. The differences were statistically significant. Correlation Krishi Viswavidyalaya, results indicated that maximum and minimum temperature had negative and significant effect (r = - Mohanpur, Nadia, West Bengal, 0.796** and -0.755**, respectively) on the leaf webber population. However, relationship of morning 741252, India relative humidity (r = +0.328**) was positively significant and evening relative humidity (r = -0.239) was negative and non-significant. Total rainfall (r = -0.370*) had negative and significant influence on UK Das leaf webber population.
