About this title

Synopsis

Insect Pest Management can be ensured successfully by depolying sex pheromones. Since decades, researchers have conducted many experiments with insect pheromones in order to improve their efficacy. For instance, eggplant shoot and fruit borer have been successfully mass trapped through water trap and that technology has been adopted by farmers.However, we are still struggling to decode the factors influencing on response of pest to pheromone. Knowledge on Pheromone status and its role in IPM should be shared among the researchers towards technology development in near future.
