TLDR
In this article, a pool of literatures on host preferences, damage pattern and succession of major insect pests of brinjal has been reviewed and presented in this paper, which is a pre-requisite for development and deployment of an appropriate, effective and timely management strategy against the pests.Abstract:
Brinjal is one of the most popular solanaceous vegetables worldwide because of its nutritive and nutraceutical values. In recent decades, brinjal cultivation has been experiencing increased biotic and abioticstresses due to the climate changes, which had affected the cultivation practices, growers’ profit and consumers’ choice to a larger extent. Amongst different insect pests, brinjal shoot and fruit borer (BSFB) is the major one causing significant reduction in economic yield followed by epilachna beetle, aphid, jassid and whitefly. On the other hand, proper knowledge on nature of damage, host preference, and seasonal abundance of insect pests is a pre-requisite for development and deployment of an appropriate, effective and timely management strategy against the pests. A pool of literatures on host preferences, damage pattern and succession of major insect pests of brinjal has been reviewed and presented in this paper.read more

Effect of larval density on survival and occurrence of cannibalism in Epilachna vigintioctopunctata Fab.
TL;DR: It is specified that density had insignificant effect on the survival and mortality of the larvae at different instars of Epilachna vigintioctopunctata but it significantly affected the developmental duration.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the dominant cues controlling plant preference and initiation of reproduction are detected early during the stylet penetration process, well before the nutrient supply (phloem) is contacted.
