Abstract

An experiment was carried out during the year 2014-15 to 2016-17 in the polyhouse of AINP on Agricultural Acarology to estimate the losses due two spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch (Tetranychidae: Acari). The estimated loss in brinjal due to two spotted spider mite, T. urticae on different plant growth characters like plant height, number of branches per plant, number of fruits per plant and fruit weight ranging between 8.24 to 33.65, 7.84 to 13.35, 26.94 to 64.93 and 15.29 to 81.10 per cent, respectively.
