Abstract Background Acetoin utilization protein (acuC) is a type I histone deacetylase which highly conserved in bacteria. The acuC gene related to the acetylation/deacetylation posttranslational modification (PTM) system S. spinosa. Spinosyns, secondary metabolites produced by Saccharopolyspora spinosa , are active ingredients family of insect control agents. However, specific functions and in...

Lobesia botrana Denis & Schiff. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), also known as the European grapevine moth is a detrimental pest in grape production Palearctic Region. Insecticides are used to control L. infestation grape-produced areas; however, repeated and intensive use of insecticide causes reduced efficacy management. In present study, five commonly insecticides (chlorpyrifos-ethyl, ema...

A field trail was conducted at Crop Research Farm (CRF) SHUATS Naini, Prayagraj, during kharif 2021 in Randomized block design with seven treatments viz, Imidacloprid 17.8% SL Thiodicarb75%WP,Spinosad 45% SC, Emamectin benzoate 5% SG, Neem oil, Beauveria bassiana 1x108 CFU/ml, Thiamethoxam 12.6% + Lambda cyhalothrin 9.5% ZC and untreated control three replication. Data were taken on fall armywo...

The concept of modern crop protection demands for a continuous supply of new or modified established pesticides to avoid the development of serious resistances. Recent reports on the insecticidal spinosyns 1 and 2 show that also this class of pest managing agents is increasingly exposed to the formation of resistances. The synthesis of new derivatives is therefore highly desirable. We describe ...

Fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda is an invasive and notorious pest of maize in many countries including Nepal. Several approaches integrated management have been adopted for its control, chemical being the most popular choice farmers’ fields. Efficacy such pesticides fall armyworm interpreted as per location, season, time crops. In some cases, insect pests are always increasing pesticide re...

Abstract The beet armyworm Spodoptera exigua (Hübner) is a serious polyphagous pest that infests vegetable crops worldwide and has rapidly developed resistance due to its long-term exposure insecticides. current statuses four insecticides exhibited by three field populations of armyworms collected in southern China from 2014 2018 were investigated. Monitoring data five consecutive years demonst...
