Profile:
The thrust area of my research is bionomics, ecotoxicology and management of Plutella
xylostella, Lipaphis erysimi, Helicoverpa armigera, Thrips tabaci and biology of Zygogramma
bicolorata, a herbivore on parthenium. I worked on the application of degree-day, development
of linear and quadratic (sigmoid) models for the forecasting of distribution and abundance of P.
xylostella on cauliflower and cabbage crops. Current research involves biology and integrated
Management of Thrips tabaci on onion and Scirtothrips dorsalis and Polyphagotarsonemus
latus responsible for MURDA disease complex in chilies. I teach Entomology courses; Insect
Morphology, Anatomy and Physiology. Insect Pests of Field, Horticultural, Ornamental and
Plantation Crops and insecticides: mode of action, metabolism and development of resistance.
Three research projects are completed where inter/trap cropping of host/non host plants are
recommended for the management of P. xylostella on cauliflower and cabbage crops and a third
one on the occurrence of entomopathogenic nematodes infesting mango fruit fly and possibility
of their application in the field condition. I have published research papers in the journals of
repute like: Chemosphere, Bulletin of Entomological Research, Ecotoxicology, Crop Protection,
Journal of Pest Science, Phytoparasitica, Annals of Applied Biology, Animal Biology and
Entomological Research.
