USE OF INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT APPROACHES TO CONTROL SPODOPTERA EXIGUA (BEET ARMYWORM): A REVIEW
Keywords:
Spodoptera exigua, beet armyworm, Integrated pest management, Biotechnological control measures, biological control, IGRSAbstract
The destructive impact of Spodoptera exigua Hübner, commonly known as the beet armyworm, plays a pivotal role in substantial economic losses, amounting to as much as 75% (equivalent to an annual value of US$100 billion). This deleterious impact is attributed to the extensive damage inflicted upon cash crops in Pakistan and across the global crop cultivation areas. In addressing the imperative to mitigate the detrimental effects of the beet armyworm, diverse ecologically sustainable management strategies have been identified. Among these, introducing biocontrol agents emerges as a prominent approach, exploiting the pest's natural enemies to regulate its population. Additionally, modern biotechnological techniques, encompassing RNA interference (RNAi), host-plant resistance (HPR), Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (CRISPR/Cas9), and Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), have been actively explored as innovative avenues for pest control. Semiochemical interferences, which involve manipulating insect behavior through chemical signaling and applying insect growth regulators (IGRs), further contribute to the resources with a wide range of applications in management strategies. Moreover, integrating environmentally friendly chemicals, such as biopesticides, is crucial in achieving sustainable and eco-friendly pest control.
