Abstract/Description: | In the present study, efficacy of eight native EPNs were tested against cardamom root grub. Among them, Heterorhabditis sp. (IISR-EPN 01) and Oscheius gingeri (IISR-EPN 07) were more pathogenic to root grubs as they caused 100% mortality to the insect within 72 hrs. The suitability of this insect for multiplication of infective juveniles (IJs) of EPNs was also studied. Maximum multiplication of IJs was observed with O. gingeri (IISR-EPN 07). However, Heterorhabditis sp. (IISR-EPN 01) yielded the least number of IJs. LC50 were calculated using four densities viz., 25, 50, 75 and 100 IJs and LT50 was calculated using one nematode density 100 IJs to mortality of root grub at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hrs post inoculation. Probit analysis indicated that, Heterorhabditis sp. (IISR-EPN 01), S. ramanai (IISR-EPN 03) and O. gingeri (IISR-EPN 07) required less number (48 IJs/grub), whereas S. carpocapsae (IISR-EPN 06) required maximum number (84 IJs/grub) to provoke 50% mortality of root grub at 72 hrs post inoculation. Time assay response revealed that, Steinernema sp. (IISR-EPN 02) and O. gingeri (IISR-EPN 07) took less time to kill 50% root grub. The infectivity of Oscheius spp. against cardamom root grub is being reported for the first time which opens up a new vistas in eco-friendly insect pest management in cardamom. |
