To determine the generation effect, larval parasitoid was reared up to seven generations on different larval host combinations, This experiment was carried out to determine effect of continuous laboratory rearing of G. nephantidis on factitious host, C. cephalonica. It was found that there was no major difference in fecundity, total number of larvae parasitized and life cycle of G. nephantidis when reared from one to six generations on C. cephalonica and then on O. arenosella. The little difference was observed after seventh generation on fecundity and potentiality, This indicated that the G. nephantidis could be mass produced on factitious host, C. cephalonica successfully up to six generations.Item Yield and Nutrient Status of Coconut as Influenced by Different Sources of Nutrients in Sandy Soil of Konkan Region of Maharashtra(2010) Nagwekar, D.D.; Desai, V.S.; Desai, V.S.; Talashikar, S.C.; Haldandar, P.M.; Rangwala, A.D.; Arulraj, S.; Jadhav, B.B.
