Simple Summary Spodoptera litura (Fabr.) is a serious noctuid lepidopteran pest in India
that can be managed using the eco-friendly, radio-genetic inherited sterility (IS) technique …

Sperm behavior represents one of the attributes in the radiogenetic technique called
inherited sterility crucial for its effectiveness to suppress populations of Spodoptera litura …

Abstract Ultraviolet light (UV-B), which emits radiation in the range of 280–315 nm, has been
used worldwide in light trapping of insect pests. In this article, we test the hypothesis that one …

Operation of radio-genetic 'Inherited sterility technique'(IS), proposed for suppression of a
serious tropical pest, Spodoptera litura (Fabr.) requires reproductively competitive moths as …

To verify the irradiated from unirradated Helicoverpa armigera larvae through the two
methods, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th instar larvae were irradiated with gamma radiation at 0 …
