Rakesh Kumar, Shamshad Ali, Umesh Chandra

Abstract

A total of seven insect pests were recorded on Vigna mungo but only two insects viz., Bemisia tabaci and Spodoptera litura were found to be major insects. Other insects were minor pests. The population of white fly had significantly positive correlation with maximum temperature, relative humidity and rainfall however the value was non-significant. Whereas tobacco caterpillar had non-significant correlation with maximum temperature, minimum temperature, R.H. and rainfall.
