Abstract:
The present investigations were conducted at Experimental Farm, College of Agriculture, Bikaner (Rajasthan) during rabi, 2015-16 and 2016-17.The P. xylostella damage was first appeared in the mid of December (50 SMW) and reached to its peak in the 3rd and 4th week of January thereafter population started declined. A correlation studies abiotic factors with RH and temperature indicated a significant positive correlation between larval population of diamondback moth with relative humidity (R.H) of evening whereas, temperature had negative significant correlation with the larval population of diamondback moth during both the years.
