Abstract:

Farmers’ income can be improved with crop diversification and cash crop in their production system. Pigeonpea a widely cultivated pulse crop in central India is also a good annual host of lac insect. Released variety of pigeonpea TJT-501 along with nine local tall and long duration pigeonpea genotypes were evaluated for survival of lac insects on them. The survival of lac insects from 45 days to 190 days after Brood lac inoculation varied from 24.91 to 38.13 percent. The adult male lac insects emerged from 115 to 124 days after the BLI. The male to female ratio varied from 1:1.9 to as high as 1:6.93. In general the local genotypes performed better than the released pigeonpea variety TJT-501 for the growth and survival of lac insects.


Keywords: pigeonpea TJT-501, Butea monosperma, Schleichera oleosa and Zizyphus mauritiana
