Many species of insect pests like cabbage seed pod weevil, flea beetle and aphid that normally distress canola has not been detected in camelina crop [11, 12]. C. sativa has an elevated level of resistance to flea beetle attack as described by many researchers [13-15]. Sativa has an elevated level of resistance to flea beetle attack as described by many researchers [13-15] This crop in a great menace of severe infestation of aphid in Pakistan. Camelina crop is recently familiarized in Pakistan and low numbers of insect pests have been noticed that result in severe harm to canola crop [16].
