Study on different diets on the biological parameters of rice moth Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton)
The present investigations were undertaken in laboratory on "Study on factitious host Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton) against storage of egg parasitoid Trichogramma chilonis (Ishii) cards under laboratory conditions" during the year 2018 in the bio control laboratory, Department of Agricultural Entomology, College of Agriculture, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology, Meerut (U. P. India. The effects of different rearing media on some biological parameters of factitious host, C. cephalonica are based on results are most effective performance with T3 (Sorghum Groundnut Yeast powder, 50:50 5g Yeast) treatments i.e. larval, pupal, male and female moths emergence, and egg production in cc and followed by 17530, 16667, 15131,14875, 13545 and 11830 i.e. T3 (Sorghum Groundnut Yeast powder, 50:50 5g Yeast) T5 (Sorghum Soyabeen Yeast powder, 50:50 5g Yeast) T6 (Sorghum Cowpea Yeast powder, 50:50 5g Yeast) T4 (Sorghum Gram powder Yeast powder, 50:50 5g Yeast) T2 (Sorghum Green Gram Yeast powder, 50:50 +5g Yeast) T1 (Sorghum Black gram Yeast powder, 50:50 5g Yeast) and T7 (Sorghum alone (check) eggs per cc of Sorghum Groundnut Yeast powder, 50:50 5g Yeast and wheal) respectively.
