Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
The present investigation entitled “Management of pink bollworm (Pectinophora gossypiella S.) By bio-agent of Beauveria bassiana on cotton crop (Gossypium hirsutum L.)” cultivar i.e. Jaddoo was conducted during july to November, at Allahabad. The occurrence of pink boll worm (Pectinospora gossypiella) in 2015-2016 Kharif season. Field bioassay was conducted with percent of mortality pink bollworm (Pectinopora gossypiella) on cotton boll damage percent revealed that the maximum mortality per cent of Cypermethrin 25 %EC (69.34), followed by Beauveria bassiana 7% (69.42), Beauveria bassiana 6% (69.38), Beauveria bassiana 5% (67.02), Beauveria bassiana 4% (64.02), Beauveria bassiana 3% (60.39), Beauveria bassiana 2% (58.09), Beauveria bassiana 1% (54.34) as compared to control (14.44).
