Abstract/Description: | Arthropods are important in maintaining the ecological balance in nonleguminous vegetable ecosystems. They provide natural services to human welfare and act as the pollinators, natural enemies, scavengers, leaf-litter sweepers, garbage collectors, soil conditioners and natural fertiliser producers in nature. The stable food chain and food webs are being maintained due to the presence of arthropod diversity. Conserving biodiversity of arthropods within agroecosytems enhances the processes of plant and soil enrichment which in turn improves crop yields and provides new sources of crop germplasm and cultivars. Biodiversity of arthropod fauna consists of major insect pests and non insect pests, which are causing significant crop loss and their natural enemies. In this chapter, arthropod diversity on different nonleguminous vegetable crops such as vegetables of Brassicaceae, Solanaceae, Malvaceae and Cucurbitaceae are discussed. |
