An experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2022-2023 to evaluate the cost benefit ratio by using different insecticidal applications viz., Chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC (0.5ml/l), Spinosad 45 SC (0.4ml/l), Nisco sixer plus (2ml/l), Bacillus thuringiensis 4% WSP (2gm/l), Beauveria bassiana 1.15% WP (5gm/l), Neem oil @2% (5ml/l), ½ dose Chlorantraniliprole + Nisco sixer plus (2.25ml/l) and Control plot against gram pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) on the green gram with three replications. Results revealed that the highest grain yield was recorded in (T1) Chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC (15.6 q/ha) followed by (T2) Spinosad 45 SC (14.8 q/ha), (T7) Half dose Chlorantraniliprole + Nisco sixer plus (13.8 q/ha). Insecticidal treatment with (T1) Chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC (1:2.87), followed by (T2) Spinosad 45 SC (1:2.79), (T7) Half dose Chlorantraniliprole + Nisco sixer plus (1:2.45), Nisco sixer plus (1:2.36), Beauveria bassiana 1.15% WP (1:2.30), Bacillus thuringiensis 4% WSP (1:2.00) and Neem oil @2% (1:1.83) are found to be least effective but comparatively superior over the control (1:1.51). End of the experiment it was reported that Chlorantraniliprole is the best for the management of gram pod borer.

“…Hence an alternative strategy like host plant resistance (HPR) is a viable and sustainable option for managing this polyphagous insect pest. The host plant resistance against this insect pest has been worked out in some of the legume crops in India such as cowpea (Jakhar et al, 2017), L. purpureus (Mallikarjuna et al, 2009;Sujitra and Srinivasan 2012), V. mungo (Umbarkar et al, 2011;Cheema et al, 2017) and pigeonpea (Sunitha et al, 2008a;Saxena et al, 1996). Unlike other crops pigeonpea is having different growth habits (determinate and indeterminate) and maturity groups (short duration, medium duration and long duration).…”

Background: The spotted pod borer (SPB), Maruca vitrata Fabricius is a key insect pest of major legume crop i.e. pigeonpea, Cajanus cajan in India and semi-arid tropics. Identifying a SPB resistant genotype will help in sustainable management of SPB and in attaining nutritional security. The SPB has developed insecticide resistance to most of the chemical insecticide like Organophosphorous group of insecticides and also it is expanding its geographic limits. These factors are the driving forces for identifying tolerant genotypes for its sustainable management along with a suitable biorational. Methods: Forty seven pigeonpea genotypes were screened during kharif 2015 to 2017 at ICAR-IIPR, Kanpur based on percent pod damage and Pest Resistance Susceptibility Rating (PRSR) under insecticide free condition. The 4 biorationals were tested against SPB in ICPL 87 along with untreated control in Randomised Block Design. Further the SPB molecular identity was confirmed by phylogenetic analysis of partial Cox 1 gene amplified from M. vitrata adult. Results: Two indeterminate genotypes (Pusa2001 and Pusa33) as SPB resistant based on lowest mean pest resistance susceptibility rating (PRSR 1.7) The next best genotypes were a determinate (AL-15) and indeterminate genotype (LRG-30) with a PRSR of 2.0. The highest PRSR (6.0) was recorded from the ICPL 87, a susceptible check in the present experiment. Spinosad 45SC has recorded significantly lowest mean pod damage (6.67%) and highest mean yield (4.36kg/35m2) compared to 4 other treatments in the field efficacy trial. The phylogenetic analysis of Cox 1 gene from Kanpur population (KY559101) with 19 other M. vitrata populations in India revealed that it is more similar to Raichur population (KT070892) and it confirms M. vitrata has same ancestral homology in India.

Legume pod borer, Maruca vitrata, has emerged as a major pest on food legumes in Asia and Africa. It is an oligophagous pest, feeding on over 70 species in Fabaceae. We examine the species complex in Asia, Africa, Oceania, and the Americas, with an emphasis on molecular taxonomy. Studies on pheromone production and perception suggest the existence of pheromone polymorphism, especially in Asia and Africa. No Maruca-resistant varieties are available in the major food legumes including cowpea, pigeonpea, mungbean, and yard-long bean. Legume growers use chemical pesticides indiscriminately, leading to the development of pesticide resistance. However recent developments in habitat management, classical biocontrol with more efficient parasitoids, biopesticides, and judicious use of insecticides pave the way for sustainable management of M. vitrata, which can reduce the pesticide misuse. Active engagement of the private sector and policy makers can increase the adoption of integrated pest management approaches in food legumes.
