The rice leaf folder population acquired 3.703,<br />

3.386, 0.6035 and 0.6350 fold resistance in kharif season<br />

and 4.249, 3.559, 0.5605 and 0.6630 fold resistance in<br />

rabi season to cartap hydrochloride, fipronil, triazophos<br />

and lambda cyhalothrin respectively at LC90** in<br />

comparison with field recommended concentrations.<br />

The present study clearly exhibited profound<br />

influence of insecticide usage in resistance development.<br />

Less used chemicals recorded low resistance factor.<br />

However, the effectiveness of new molecules was in the<br />

order of lambda cyhalothrin, cartap hydrochloride,<br />

triazophos and fipronil respectively at SD50** level in<br />

both kharif and rabi seasons. While at LD90** level it<br />

was lambda cyhalothrin, fipronil, triazophos and cartap<br />

hydrochloride in kharif season, while in rabi season it<br />

was lambda cyhalothrin, triazophos, fipronil and cartap<br />

hydrochloride. Regarding the conventional insecticides,<br />

the larvae were found resistant to cypermethrin with no<br />

trace of resistance development to chloropyriphos and<br />

“Studies on seasonal incidence and Evaluation of different spray schedules<br />

against spotted pod borer, Maruca vitrate (Geyer) (Pyralidace: Lepidoptera)<br />

on blackgram”<br />

A field experiment entitled “Studies on seasonal<br />

incidence and evaluation of different spray schedules<br />

against spotted pod borer, Maruca virata (Geyer)<br />

(Pyralidae: Lepidoptera) on blackgram” was conducted<br />

at Agricultural College farm, Bapatla during rabi 2007-<br />

08.<br />

The larval incidence of M. vitrata started during<br />

the third week of December (15.12.2007) i.e.at the early<br />

flowering stage of the crop (30 days after sowing) and<br />

reached a peak level (37 larvae per %0 plants) during<br />

the second week of January (12.01.08) coinciding with<br />

the maximum flowering stage of the crop.<br />

Among the chemical schedules (F1*), the<br />

profenofos schedule (C3*0) was found effective which<br />

recorded the lowest mean number of M. vitrata larvae<br />

(1.24) and damaged flowers/pods (1.61) per five plants.<br />

Among the spray interval schedule (F2*) the four days<br />

interval spray schedule (D1*) was found effective and<br />

has recorded the lowest number of M. vitrata larvae per<br />

five plants (0.80) and mean number of damaged<br />

flowers./pods per five plants (0.93). The interaction<br />

between the profenofos schedule and four days interval<br />

spray schedule i.e. C3D1** was found effective and has<br />

recorded the lowest mean number of M. vitrata larvae<br />

(0.73) and damaged flowers /pods (0.67) per five plants.<br />

The grain yield was highest (2.08 kg per plot)<br />

in the profenofos schedule and in for days interval spray<br />

schedule (2.10 kg per plot) as well as in the interaction<br />

between profenofos and four days interval spray<br />

schedule (C3D1**) i.e. 2.e. 2.40 kg per plot. However,<br />

the CB ratio was highest in neem schedule and ten days<br />

interval schedule (1:208) because of low cost of plant<br />

protection. M.Sc (Ag) ,2008
