Abstract:
Screening of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) genotypes against pod borers, was conducted during rabi 2020-2021 at Oilseed Research Station, Department of Agricultural Entomology, Latur. The overall results indicated that the earwig damage range in between 0 to 16.25 percent. Lowest earwig damage were recorded on genotype STVT-I-2020- 01 (0.00%), STVT-I-2020-07 (0.00%), HOVTSTB-I-2020-07 (0.00%) and HOVTVGI-2020-07 (0.00%) respectively were highly resistant genotype. Highest number of pods damage by earwig were recorded on TSB-I-2020-09 (16.25%) followed by ISKI-2020-06 (15%), ISK-I-2020-29 (15%). Wireworm damage range in between 0 to 17.75 percent. Lowest wireworm damage were recorded on genotype STVT-I-2020-01 (0.00%), STVT-I2020-07 (0.00%), HOVTSTB-I-2020-07 (0.00%) and HOVTVG-I-2020-07 (0.00%) respectively and these were highly resistant genotype. Highest number of wireworm damage pods were recorded on TSB-I-2020-09 (17.75%) followed by ISK-I-2020-29 (16.5%), ISK-I- 2020-06 (16.25%). Sub. ants damage range in between 0 to 16.75 percent. Lowest damage of Sub. ants were recorded on genotype STVT-I-2020-01 (0.00%), STVT-I2020-07 (0.00%), HOVTSTB-I-2020-07 (0.00%) and HOVTVG-I-2020-07 (0.00%) respectively were highly resistant genotype. Highest number of sub. ants damage pods were recorded on IVK-I-2020-05 (16.75%) followed by IVK-I-2020-05 (16.75%), ISK-I-2020-12 (16.5%).
