Field trials were conducted with six treatments against the pest complex of olitorius jute var. JRO-524 during 2004and 2005 at Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, West Bengal, India. The results revealed that incidence of Anomis sabulifera Guen., Spilarctiaobliqua Wlk., Myllocerus discolor Bohemus, Apion corchori Marshall and Polyphagotarsonemus latus Banks were found causing a minimum of 6.10, 4.68, 12.38,5.09, and 10.47 percent plant infestation, respectively. These were the results from the 2004 crop season in the IPM module M3 designed against insect, mite and nematode pests as compared to the other treatments. Similar results were obtained in 2005 with a relatively low plant infestation of 7.66,28.60, 11.90 and 11.21 caused by A. sabulifera, M. discolor,A. corchori and P. latus, respectively, in module M3as compared to the other treatments. The maximum reduction (69.39 to 82.46%) of root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita Chitwood) population along with low gall index (1.33 to 1.67)at harvest was observed in module (M3) in 2004-05. The yellow mite population was observed to be a minimum of 14.33 and 19.33 per leaf in 2004 and2005, respectively in M3. The maximum average fiber yield of 30.32q/ha and the benefit-cost ratio of 7.34 were also recorded in M3.Based on the benefit-cost ratio, the performance of the treatments was in the decreasing order of M3 > M2 > M4 > M5> M1 > M6. Considering performance for managing insect,mites and root-knot nematodes, M3 was the most effective and economical management strategy against the pest complex of olitorius jute. Four spider species viz. Neoscona mukerji Tikader, Neoscona sp., Araneus sp. and Xysticus sp. were recorded for the first time in the jute ecosystem of West Bengal. The pest population in the jute ecosystem could be suppressed naturally to a great extent, because thirteen insects and ten spider predators were encountered in the experimental field during the crop season. Furthermore,a larval parasitoid (Apanteles obliquae) was found acting on the larvae of bihar hairy caterpillars.
Survey on plant andsoil nematodes associated with banana plantations in different banana growing districts of West Bengal (India), revealed that the occurrence of the most economically important genera of plant parasitic nematodes were Pratylenchus,Meloidogyne, Helicotylenchus, Tylenchorhynchus, Hoplolaimus, Rotylenchulus,Hirschmanniella, Criconemoides. Altogether there were seventeen species of plant parasitic nematodes viz. Pratylenchus coffeae, P. brachyurus, P.similis, Meloidogyne incognita, M. javanica, Hoplolaimus indicus, Rotylenchulus reniformis, Helicotylenchus multicinctus, H. abunaamai, H. incisus, H. gratus,H. dihystera, Tylenchorhynchus nudus, T. mashhoodi, T. coffeae, Hirschmanniella mucronata and Criconemoides sp. Among the plant parasitic nematodes,P. coffeae, P. brachyurus, M. incognita, H. multicinctus and R.reniformis were found as serious pests of banana in West Bengal. The occurrence of the most damaging species, Radopholus similis and Heterodera oryzicola was not detected in West Bengal, although R. similis is reported to occur in Midnapore and Jalpaiguri. Distribution of plant parasitic nematodes associated with the rhizosphere of banana in important banana growing districts of West Bengal, was presented on the basis of information available in the state. Observation of the effects of some banana cultivars/types on the nematode fauna, showed that the cooking banana type Musa (ABB) cv.Kanchakala and Musa (BBB) cv. Seed Banana supported a huge population ofM. incognita which induced severe root galling symptoms. The lesion nematode, P. coffeae was found infesting all the cultivars/types. It maintained high population densities in the rhizosphere of Musa (AA) cv.Matti and Musa (ABB) cvs. Kanchkala, Krishna Kanthali whereas the Seed Banana cultivar had a suppressive effect on P. coffeae. The rhizosphere of banana cultivar, Matti exhibited a high population of H. multicinctus.R. reniformis population was recorded in extremely high levels in the rhizosphere of all cultivars/types. Free-living nematodes including rhabditids,dorylaimids, mononchids, were found in abundance in the banana rhizosphere.
Diversity and dynamics of soil nematodes were observed in okra based crop sequences in West Bengal, India. The major nematode species identified were: Rotylenchulus reniformis, Meloidogyne incognita, Hoplolaimus indicus, Tylenchorhynchus mashhoodi and Criconemoides onoensis. R. reniformis and M. incognita were found to be the most abundant. The okra-cowpea-cabbage and okra-cucumber-mustard sequences were found to have maximum suppressive effect on M. incognita. The cabbage, mustard and rice in the sequence had a suppressive effect on M. incognita while okra, brinjal, cowpea and tomato supported nematode multiplication. Okra-rice-fallow suppressed R. reniformis. Low populations of H. indicus and C. onoensis were found in okra-cowpea-cabbage, okra-brinjal-okra and okra-cucumber-mustard. The populations of H. indicus and C. onoensis were found maximum in okra-rice-tomato and okra-rice-fallow. T. mashhoodi was suppressed under okra-cowpea-cabbage, okra-rice-fallow, okra-cucumber-mustard and okra-brinjal-okra. Plant parasitic and free living nematodes in an okra based system were estimated and their ratio was determined. The saprozoic nematode index (SNI) was found high (0.45) in okra-rice-fallow.
Powdery mildew (Erysiphe pisi Syd.) significantly reduces the yield and quality of pea all over the world. Screening of a broad range of germplasm revealed three highly resistant genotypes (Fallon, PS99102238 and PS0010128); eleven (Shawnee, Lifter, Franklin, PS610152, PS810240, PS710048, PS610324, PS810191, CGN3273, CGN3272, and PS9910188) showed symptoms after inoculation but the infection was not severe and recovery was rapid. Powdery mildew caused 86% loss to the germplasm, and the severity of the disease was associated with various phases. The pathogen inhibits seed development in the pod. Severe natural infection is expected to eliminate susceptible germplasm, some of which may have valuable, unique characteristics. The screening data were used to explore the relationship between susceptible and resistant genotypes, and between genetic diversity and geographic patterns. Seed protein assays did not sort genotypes by geographic pattern or disease resistance. It is suggested to transfer genes conferring disease resistance and economic yield to one genotype.
In this study, the methanol extract of Artemisia scoparia was evaluated for its protective potential against carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-induced hepatic toxicity. Seven groups of mature albino rats were used in the course of the experiment and each group was treated with specific doses of plant extract and CCl₄. Silymarin was used as a standard protective drug. The results of the experiment revealed that Artemisia scoparia plant extract was successful in fighting CCl₄ toxicity as it clearly reduced the elevated levels of liver serum markers (alkaline phosphatase and alkaline aminotransferase), lipid peroxidation, nitrite content, and H₂O₂ on one side while enhancing the levels of antioxidant enzymes (catalase, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione-s-transferase, γ-Glutamyltranspeptidase, and glutathione reductase) and protein content. It also protected DNA from the damaging effects of CCl₄. The findings of this study demonstrate that Artemisia scoparia plant extract plays a significant role in preventing the hepatic damages instigated with CCl₄ and can be used as a protective agent against oxidative stress-associated disorders.
