Nandi, P.S., Roy, S., Bhattacharya, S.S., Pal, A., & Chakraborty, K. 2020 Biochemical factors associated with mango mealy bug (Drosicha mangiferae G.) infestation in different mango cultivars at Malda, West Bengal (India). Journal of Applied Horticulture (Navsari) 22(3): 230-239

  • Notes: Five different popular mango cultivars (Fazli, Guti, Lakhanbhog, Gopalbhog and Langra) of Malda, West Bengal, India were screened for the mango mealy bug (Drosicha mangiferae G.) population in panicle and trunk throughout the pest infestation period during 2018 and 2019. It can be concluded that a combination of factors influence pest density and a single factor is not adequate to affect the pest population.
