biological efficacy against the legume pod borer Helicoverpa amigera.&#13;
Following were the specific objectives of the present investigation:&#13;
1. To evaluate antifeedant activity of Bt and soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI)&#13;
genes against H. armigera under dual-choice and no-choice conditions.&#13;
2. To evaluate the effect of SBTl and plant lectins on the survival and&#13;
development of H. armigera.&#13;
3. To evaluate the effect of Bt and SBTl genes on consumption and utilization&#13;
of food by H. armigera.&#13;
4. To evaluate the effect of Bt and SBTl transformed plants on the biology of&#13;
H. armigera.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Entomology</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2000</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>Jawaharlal Nehru Krlshl Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur;Department of Entomology</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Thesis</mods:genre></mods:mods>
