Abstract:

Mango hopper is one of the most destructive pests of mango globally which causes considerable monetary loss. An attempt was made to evaluate different entomopathogenic fungi against mango hoppers at Horticulture farm, Anand Agricultural University, Anand (Gujarat) during the year 2011-2012, 2012-13 and 2013-14. Among seven treatments imposed for the management of mango hoppers, the treatment with Verticillium lecanii (Lecanicillium lecanii) 1.15% WP (2x108cfu/g) on tree trunk during off-season + at flowering period recorded lower number of mango hoppers, which was found at par with Metarhizium anisopliae 1.15% WP (2x108cfu/g)on tree trunk during off-season + at flowering period.
