MANGO (Mangifera indica)
King Of All Fruits
MANGO ORCHARD
Mango yields in Pakistan are considerably low being 9-10 tons / ha compared with world yields being 10 – 30 tons/ha , in countries like China , Mexico and India.The main constraints for low yield are new developing diseases and insect pests on mango .The insects like Hopper , Scale , mealy bugs, Thrips , shoot borer , mango midges and Fruit fly .The massive use of pesticides on fruit crops are most concerning in increasingly health conscious therefore Pakistans export of fruits may face serious threat .So efforts are needed to introduce expectable MRL .
INTRODUCTION
INSECT PESTS OF MANGO

INSECT PESTS
MANGO HOPPERAmriotodus atkinsoniIdioscopus clypealisIdiocopus niveosparus
MANGO HOPPER
Though out the year first out break in Feb –April.
Damage to fruit yield may be as high as 60 per cent.De- saping young foliage and inflorescence during reproductive and growth period.More active practically during spring & monsoon season.
(Mango hopper)
MANGO HOPPERCONTROL OPTIONS
Chemical control with non-selective pesticides.No Biological control.
RD & E AreaResearch on alternative pesticidesAttempts to be made on biological control.Impact of pesticide spray during inflorescence on pollination & fruit setting.
MANGO MEALY BUGDrosicha mangiferae
MANGO MEALY BUGDAMAGE SYMPTOMS
Only the nymphs & wingless females are destructive & suck plant juice , causing tender shoots and flowers to dry up.
The nymphs crawl on the plant during January- March period and feed on the twigs, leaves and inflorescence
The young fruits also become juiceless and drop off
No fruits are set when early infestation is serious on inflorescence.
(Mango mealy bug)
MANGO MEALY BUGCONTROL MEASURES
Destroy eggs laid under infested trees after scraping the soil 6”deep to expose the eggs. Burn all dry leaves and twigs in May-June.
To prevent nymphs from crawling up the stem, apply 8 cm wide sticky bands, or polythene sheets, about a meter above ground towards mid.
Burn nymphs congregated below the bands, or drench them in kerosene mixed with water.
Chemical control with non-specific pesticides.
RD & E AreaThe predator Sumnius renardi is available in Pakistan its argumentation and releases may be made on large scale.
MANGO SCALES
MANGO SCALESAbout 27 species of scale insects attack mango.Scale is usually dispersed by birds and bats through their feathers and fur.Male scale is smaller in size as compared to female scale.Female scale is oval in shape having transparent skin coat.These insects differ from other insects in shape .Life cycle is completed in 31-35 days with upto 10 generation in year.
MANGO SCALESDAMAGE SYMPTOMS
Severe infestation completely coats the underside of leaves which become yellow and die .It also caused cracking of bark and decline symptoms.Flower spikes and fruits may also be infested.
MANGO SCALESCONTROL MEAURES
Chemical control with non specific pesticides .
RD & E Area• Research on Bionomics and control of scales is
necessary to confirm the role of scales in mango decline symptometology.
PROJECT PROPOSALA project on biological management of important Coccoidea associated with mango in Sindh in collaboration with CABI Pakistan central Rawalpindi have been submitted for ALP funding.
(Mango Scale)
MANGO FRUIT FLY
MANGO FRUIT FLYBactocera zonatus attack up to 97% and B.dorsalisdamage the fruit up to 3%.Fruit flies are most active in garden when temperature is 25-30 C and become inactive below 20 C.

DAMAGE SYMPTOMS
Maggots feed on the pulp and make it unfit for human consumption.At first the infestation is not visible on the fruit surface; later on brown spots appear on the surface of the infested fruit.
MANGO FRUITFLYCONTROL MEASURES
Destroy all infested fruits & dropping to reduce future pest populations.Fruit fly traps of methyl eugenol (one traps / ac.) is effective against fruit fly. Traps need to be reapplied every 14 days.Spray with Dipterex 80 SP @ 100-150 gm / 100 lit Of Water
RESEARCH IN HANDA project integrated management of fruit fly in Pakistan has been funded through ALP to comprising IPEP , NARC , IIBC , NIFA , D.I.Khan , ARI , NIA and ARI – Quetta components.
MANGO FRUITFLYISSUES
Lake of facilities for hot water treatment , weak linkage between growers , Extension workers and researchers .Weak linkage between research institutes at federal and provincial levels.Regional control programme.Mix cropping of various fruit crops
RD & E AREASConcern over carcinogenicity of methyl eugenol call for development of other types of para-pheramones to attack Bectocera spp.Research on combination of augumentative releases of parasitoids and use of sterile insect techniques and bait application of protein for female.

ASSOCIATION OF BARK BEETLE WITH MANGO DECLINE
MANGO BARK BEETLE
The mango trunk beetle can be found in trunk all branches as well as root .Adults generally appear in hot weather. Full grown larva is a stout, yellowish-white, fleshy grub.
DistributionNative range tropical and sub-tropical Asia, currently found in equatorial, Africa, India, SriLanka, China, Japan, South East Asia, Indonesia, Hawaii, Southern United States. Wood 1982, Kovach and Gorsuch 1985, Deyrup and Atkinson 1987.
124 species of trees, shrubs nd vine world wide. Mango, Papaya, Coffee, Cacao, Rubber, CamphorTea & Teak, Sweet potato
Host plant:
Adult females are minute (2 to 3) mm stout bodied dark reddish brown andhave hunched-back appearance.
Asia Ambrosia beetle(Xylosandrus crassiuculus)
Suspected cause of decline
Asian Ambrosia beetleAnd hole on trunk caused by beetle.
Efforts taken by the DepartmentIdentification of beetles
Insect samples have been sent to CAB International Rawalpindi for identification. The beetle could not be identified in Pakistan. The samples were sent to National Museum U.K. The identification is as under:Cryphalus Sp. (Bark Beetle)
J.E .Pena (Australia) reported that the scolytlidsH.magniferae and Xybsandrus compactus directly attack main stem and branches.Fungus mycelium growth can extend terminally and basally from beetle gallery in the mango tree and can kill effected branches. The evaluation of trap is tools for managing ambrosia beetle to reduce damage in newly established groves
Mode of damageIt does not consume tissue. The female transport spores of blue to black fungus (Ambrosia) in to the core of stem or create entry point for Fusarium Sp. etc.
Branches and stem are usually attacked, low about 1 to 3 feet above the soil line.
Beetle actively are wilting of foliage and eventually death of plant due to severed and fungal clogged water pipe lines (Xylem). Ultimately gum ozesfrom plant.
