Abstract

Biology of mango inflorescence gall midges Desineura amaramanjarae recently found in Sindh, Pakistan

Highlights

  • Introduction indicaL. is grown in lowland tropical andThe mango cultivated in Indo-Pak sub-tropical areas throughout the world

  • The leaf gall midge completed all its development from egg to adult within the galls while the inflorescences midges larvae fell on the ground for pupation, for the biology of Dasineura amaramanjarae the following techniques were used for the appropriate result of biological parameters

  • Studies carried out on the biology of inflorescence Dasineura amaramanjarae which included the time of adult emergence, number of eggs, hatching period, larval period first instar, 2nd instar, 3rd instar, 4th instar, pupal period, (Adult emergence period), sex ratio, mortality age, survival percentage and total life cycle period

Summary

Introduction

Introduction indicaL. is grown in lowland tropical andThe mango cultivated in Indo-Pak sub-tropical areas throughout the world. The leaf gall midge completed all its development from egg to adult within the galls while the inflorescences midges larvae fell (after completing development) on the ground for pupation, for the biology of Dasineura amaramanjarae the following techniques were used for the appropriate result of biological parameters. Results and discussion Studies carried out on the biology of inflorescence Dasineura amaramanjarae which included the time of adult emergence, number of eggs, hatching period, larval period first instar, 2nd instar, 3rd instar, 4th instar, pupal period, (Adult emergence period), sex ratio, mortality age, survival percentage and total life cycle period.
