Citing the potential of Jatropha mostly without any scientific and technological backup, it is believed to be one of the most suitable biofuel candidates. Huge grants were released by many projects for huge plantation of Jatropha (millions of hectares). Unfortunately, there has been no significant progress, and Jatropha did not contribute much in the energy scenario. Unavailability of high-yielding cultivar, large-scale plantation without the evaluation of the planting materials, knowledge gap and basic research gap seem to be the main reasons for failure.

Insect Sci. 14(255): 2014; DOI: 10.1093/jisesa/ieu117 ABSTRACT. Jatropha curcas has been introduced into Niger since 2004 by International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT). This plant is cultivated for its oil, which can be used as a Biofuel. Through direct and indirect insect collection meth- ods, an inventory of the insect associated with J. curcas has been conducted in Western Niger during two rainy seasons (from June to October) in 2010 and 2011. We have identified insects belonging to the following families: Acrididae (Oedaleus senegalensis Krauss, 15 Oedaleus nigeriensis Uvarov, Heteracris leani Uvarov, Catantops stramineus Walker, Parga cyanoptera Uvarov, and Acanthacris ruficor- nis citrina Audinet-Serville), Pyrgomorphidae (Poekilocerus bufonius hieroglyphicus Klug), Cetoniidae (Pachnoda interrupta Olivier, Pachnoda marginata aurantia Herbst, Pachnoda sinuata Heinrich and McClain, and Rhabdotis sobrina Gory and Percheron), Meloidae (Decapotoma lunata Pallas), Pentatomidae (Agonoscelis versicoloratus Dallas, Nezara viridula Linn, and Antestia sp.

  • Molecular Characterisation of Jatropha Curcas As a Source Of
    Molecular Characterisation of Jatropha curcas; Towards an Understanding of its Potential as a Non-edible Oilseed-Based Source of Biodiesel Siam Popluechai Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of SAgE Newcastle University Newcastle upon Tyne School of Biology November 2010 Molecular Characterisation of Jatropha curcas; Towards an Understanding of its Potential as a Non-edible Oilseed-Based Source of Biodiesel I certify that no part of the material offered has been previously submitted by me for a degree of other qualification in this or any other University. Siam Popluechai November 2010 ABSTRACT Jatropha curcas, a non-edible oilseed, is becoming popular as a source of biodiesel. However, there are some limitations to using J. curcas such as the presence of carcinogenic substances, unpredictable yield, asynchronous flowering and plant height. Understanding the genetic control of these characteristics will help to find solutions. To accumulate genetic information for J. curcas plant breeding programmes, the genetic and phenotypic characterisation of J. curcas seeds obtained from different geographical locations was undertaken (Chapter 2). The results showed a narrow genetic diversity among accessions but apparent phenetic diversity. The screens employed ranged from phenotypic characterizations of seeds to molecular, biochemical, physiological and genotyping assessments. Seed dimensions and weight measurements provided data on seed density and kernel weight, both important parameters for assessing oilseed quality. Biochemical analysis provided data on oil properties relevant to biodiesel e.g. total oil content, oleic/linoleic acid ratio, saponification number, cetane number and gross energy value. Expression analysis of genes (acc, sad, fad, and dgat) essential for the quantity and quality of seed/oil were targeted as molecular screens.

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000).

Nerlekar ABSTRACT Out of the several hypotheses that seek to explain the relation The fact that plant spatial aggregation patterns shape insect- between host plant heterogeneity, spatial complexity and insect- ‘ herbivore communities in a variety of ways has resulted in a large herbivore characteristics, three key hypotheses are the enemies ’ ‘ ’ body of literature on the subject. The landmark resource hypothesis , the resource concentration hypothesis , and the ‘ ’ concentration hypothesis predicts that density of insect herbivores resource dilution hypothesis (Elton, 1958; Root, 1973; Otway ‘ ’ per plant will increase as host plant density increases. I examined this et al., 2005; Björkman et al., 2010). The enemies hypothesis prediction across temporal samplings using Jatropha nana and the predicts that because of higher predator and parasite efficiency associated specialist insect herbivores as a system. Through 12 field in diverse environments, insect herbivores are less abundant in samplings, I modelled the effect of host plant density on insect- species-diverse plant communities than in simple (e.g. monoculture) ‘ ’ herbivore loads. The initial samplings (2–3) provided evidence for the communities (Elton, 1958). The resource concentration hypothesis resource concentration hypothesis, with insect loads increasing with (RCH) goes further to consider host patch size and plant density as increasing host plant density, whereas the later samplings (4–5, predictors of herbivore abundance, along with plant diversity (Root, 7–11) showed the opposite; a resource dilution pattern with a decline 1973).

  • Le Point Sur…
    Le point sur… RAVAGEURS ET MALADIES DU JATROPHA Isabelle Amsallem Septembre 2014 Le réseau JatroREF a pour objectif la construction de référentiels permettant de caractériser la viabilité socio- économique et la durabilité environnementale des filières paysannes de production d’agrocarburants à base de Jatropha en Afrique de l’Ouest. Il est animé par le bureau d’études associatif IRAM, en partenariat avec l’ONG GERES. JatroREF cherche à favoriser les échanges opérationnels entre porteurs de projets, et avec les acteurs institutionnels, la recherche et les organisations paysannes concernés directement par les enjeux liés au développement des agrocarburants locaux. La constitution de groupes de travail thématiques favorise la concertation et le partage d’expérience entre participants. Le réseau met également en œuvre des moyens d’étude dédiés. JatroREF diffuse ensuite l’information à un public plus large, à travers diverses publications - rapports d’étude, notes pédagogiques- et des ressources documentaires, accessibles sur son site Internet www.jatroref.org. 1 Depuis une dizaine d’années, des plantations de Jatropha curcas sont mises en place en Afrique subsaharienne pour la production d'agrocarburants. La toxicité et les propriétés biocides du Jatropha ne lui épargnent pas pour autant, lorsqu'il est cultivé, les attaques d’insectes ravageurs et d’organismes pathogènes. En effet, insectes, champignons, bactéries et virus entraînent des pertes significatives de rendement. Pourtant, la littérature scientifique traitant de ce sujet n’est pas abondante. La récente introduction du Jatropha en Afrique et la petite taille des surfaces cultivées expliquent le peu de travaux menés sur cette importante contrainte à la production durable de biocarburants à base de Jatropha dans cette région.
