Title : Life Cycle and Behavior of Citrus Green Stink Bug, Rhynchocoris Lmmeralis Thunberg Material Type: printed text Authors: Manandhar, R., Author ; Joshi, S.L., Author ; Sharma, P. N., Author Pagination: 50-54 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: citrus green stink bug, fruit drop, life cycle, mandarin orange Abstract: Rhynchocoris Jwmeralis Thunberg (Citrus green stink bug: CGSB) is one of the important
insect pests of mandarin in the westem hills of Nepal, that causes premature fruit drop in
mandarin, resulting heavy loss in fruit yield. This study aims to manage it through integrated
approach, which comprises of its field life cycle and behavior. This study was carried at
Hemja (1060 mas 1.) and Lrmrfe (1675 mas l.) during June to December 2001 and 2002.
Freshly hatched nymphs were inoculated in sleeve cage that was confined to a branch having
2-3 small fruits. Observations were made to record incubation period of egg, duration of each
nymphal instar and number of dropped fruits at each instar. This study revealed that the pest
had five nymphal stages prior to emerge as an adult. The first instar stmted feeding on the
fruit that induced fruit drop. The adult of CGSB remained alive for more than 50 days in the
winter to build population for the next season.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=454 Life Cycle and Behavior of Citrus Green Stink Bug, Rhynchocoris Lmmeralis Thunberg [printed text] / Manandhar, R., Author ; Joshi, S.L., Author ; Sharma, P. N., Author . - [s.d.] . - 50-54 p.

Title : System Analysis of Potato Tuber Moth, Pestilence in the Potato Crop Husbandry in Kathmandu Valley Material Type: printed text Authors: Joshi, S.L., Author ; Khatri, B.B., Author ; Shrestha, S.L., Author ; J. Lorenzen, Author ; B. P. Mainali, Author Pagination: 217-220 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: husbandry, potato tuber moth, system analysis Abstract: Twelve varieties of potato in Sankltu and Mulpani and 6 varieties in Panchkhal were found
cultivated in the intellSive potato cultivated areas of Kathmandu valley. Potato cultivars,
Cardinal, Desiree, Kufri Jyoti and NPI /06 were common varieties to all localities. Cardinal
was the most preferred variety. Potato tuber moth (PTM), both in the standing crop and in the
storage was the most imponant biotic factor depleting the harvest. Synthetic chemical pesticides
like methyl parathion, de/tamethrin, dich/orvos, and dimethoate were used as foliar spray on the
standing crop. To mitigate PTM in the stored potatoes either shade dried botanicals like
Animesia mtd China berry or synthetic chemical insecticides like methyl parathion or
dimethoate or dichlorvos or malathion dust were used. Pesticide management of PTM and
diseases in potato crop involved an expr;nse of as low as 0.5% of the cultivated cost (Mulpani)
to as high as 15% (Sankhu and Panchkhal) of the total cost of cultivation. The farmers preferred
red skinned PTM resistant varieties.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=499 System Analysis of Potato Tuber Moth, Pestilence in the Potato Crop Husbandry in Kathmandu Valley [printed text] / Joshi, S.L., Author ; Khatri, B.B., Author ; Shrestha, S.L., Author ; J.
