Ponds are classified as lentic water bodies, which get adversely affected by anthropogenic activities. The current investigation endeavours to assess the physico-chemical properties of the water of Mahil pond, a freshwater pond situated in the middle of the city (Orai). The present work was conducted over the period of 12 months, specifically from January 2022 to December 2022. Monthly data have been gathered and subsequently organized by season, accompanied by its specific standard deviation. The study encompassed various parameters, including water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Total alkalinity, Total Hardness, Nitrate-Nitrogen, and Phosphate.

For this purpose, 13 priming treatmentsincluding control on chickpea var. king Ganesh seeds were subjected to treatment with various primers.The chickpea var. king Ganesh seeds were primed with above different priming agents in above differentconcentrations for a duration of 8 hours. After drying, the seeds were used to grow under field conditions.Experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications during rabi 2020-21. Analysis of variance revealed significant mean sum of squares due to seed priming treatments. Priming with T12 (Rhizobium) (10 g) was found significantly superior which affected all the growth and yield parameters inchickpea in comparison to control and other treatments. Thus, seed priming with T12 (Rhizobium) (10g) is useful for improving yield in chickpea.

The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design. The peak shoot and fruit infestation was noticed around 43rd standard week during kharif season. Similarly. The incidence of Leucinodes orbonalis on brinjal showed significant positive correlation with the maximum temperature, evening humidity and sunshine. Whereas, the minimum temperature, morning relative humidity rainfall, and wind velocity recorded non-significant negative correlation.

Thus, aroused the quest for the search of highly selective and bio-degradable pesticides to solve the problem of long-term toxicity to mammals and techniques to be developed to reduce pesticides use while maintaining crop yield. The present investigation entitled “Comparative bio efficacy of weed extracts against tomato fruit borer (Helicoverpa armigera) on tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum)” was carried out in Department of Entomology, SHUATS, Naini, Prayagraj (211007) U.P during the rabi season 2018-2019. Field studies were conducted by incorporating 10% aqueous extracts of some weeds and weed parts viz. Parthenium hysterophorus, Lantana camera, Ageratum conyzoides, Calotrophis gigantea, Argemone mexicana, Acyranthes aspera and Emamectin benzoate 5 SG. The plant extracts were found effective in reducing the percentage of infestation of target pest (Helicoverpa armigera...

Spinosad, chlorpyrifos and quinalphos were found superior over all the treatments after first and second spray, respectively. Malathion was found as least effective insecticide against gram pod borer. The highest yield was registered in spinosad 45 SC about 19.25 q/ha which were followed by chlorpyrifos 20 EC 16.45 q/ha and quinalphos 14.30q/ha compared to 5.25 q/ha yield in untreated check.

Hence, effective mosquito control is required to enhance the health and quality of human life through the reduction of mosquito population. Therefore there is a growing need to use clean non-toxic, eco-friendly biopesticides. In this review we summarize, the current knowledge of the mosquito larvicidal activity by using different plant part extracts of Solanaceae family. Various aspects such as, instar specificity, solvents used during extraction, nature of active ingredient and promising advances made in biological control of mosquito larvae from Solanaceae plant derived secondary metabolites are also discussed . The results of the review reveal that the use of Solanaceous plant extracts have the potential to be utilized as a good, easily available, biodegradable, non-toxic and in having eco-friendly approach for the control of mosquito populat...
