Abstract:

Efficacy of novel insecticides on the cocoon parameters of mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori resulted in the maximum single cocoon weight of 1.81 g (10 DAS), 1.83 g (20 DAS), 1.90 g (30 DAS) and1.87 g (40 DAS) in the untreated control. Pupal weight was recorded was recorded maximum in untreated control along with other insecticides viz., azadirachtin 1 % @ 1 ml, dinotefuran 20 SG @ 0.25 & 0.12 g/l, pymetrozine 50 WG @ 0.6 g/l and buprofezin 25 SC @ 1ml/l at 10 and 20 Days After Spraying. Among the treatments untreated control exhibited maximum shell weight of 0.34 (20, 30 and 40 DAS) and 0.33 g at 10 DAS of insecticides which was on par with dichlorvos 76 EC @ 2.63 ml/l (0.31g), dinotefuron 20SG @ 0.25 g/l and pymetrozine 50 WG @ 0. 6g/l. Hence proving, these green labelled insecticides as an effective alternate for dichlorovos in sericulture.
