Abstract:

The present study was conducted to know the comparative efficacy of Entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana and certain indigenous products against the larvae of diamond back moth, Plutella xylostella (Linn) on Cabbage (Brassica oleracea) a lab trial was conducted during the 2017-2018 at SHUATS, Allahabad. All the treatments were found significantly superior over control. Among the treatments the highest larval mortality of 100 % with the treatment T4 and the minimum larval mortality of 26.666% was recorded with the treatment T2 (NL+BBM). Each treatment was replicated three times and mortality of different larval instar (1st, 3rd, 5th) was recorded after. 24, 48 and 72 hours, mortality at 72 hours was highest over 48 and 24 hours and mortality in 1st instar was found more in comparison to 3rd and 5th instar.
