It was reported that an adult human being masticate up to 0.5g of arecanut/kg bw/day. Animal studies have revealed that feeding of processed arecanut (dried or boiled) at 1.0g/kg body weight/day and pan masala up to 1.67g/kg bw/day were safe for mice. Arecanut paste when applied to bare skin at 1.5g /kg bw/day was safe for hamsters. Feeding of arecoline, the physiologically most active chemical compound of arecanut, was found safe for mice at 100mg/kg bw/day. The LD50 value for arecanut extract was reported to be >15,000mg/kg bw for rats. The betel quid at a concentration of 0.1ml of 2% solution without tobacco was also found safe for mice. The arecanut and betel quid extracts without tobacco were even reported to retard the development of tumors in mice and cure breast cancer cells, gastric cancer cells and liver cancer cells in human being. Several population studies carried out in India and abroad on the effects of chewing betel quid without tobacco did not show any significant harmful effects on human health. It is really sad to note that such reports were sidelined by most of the researchers and reviewers.Item Biology and control of Rattus rattus wroughtonii Hinton, a pest of coconut in India(1993) Keshava Bhat, S.; Vidyasagar, P.S.P.V.; Sujatha, A.Item Biology and feeding potential of Parena nigrolineata (Chaudoir) (Coleoptera: Carabidae), a predator of the coconut caterpillar Opisina arenosella Wlk(2007-02-08) Pillai, G.B.; Keshava Bhat, S.Item Biology, damage potential and molecular identification of Conogethes punctiferalis Guenee in cocoa (Theobroma cacao Linn.)(2013-12) Alagar, M.; Rachana, K.E.; Keshava Bhat, S.; Shafeeq Rahman; Rajesh, M.K.Conogethes punctiferalis is an important polyphagous pest attacking many economically important crops. Recently, C. punctiferalis has been found to be an emerging pest in cocoa and was found to feed and bore into cocoa pods. The larvae feed on the rind of cocoa cherelles/pods, later bore into pods, feed the internal contents of the pods, the granular faecal pellets are seen outside the pods. When pods/cherelles touch each other, it is easy for the larvae to damage more than one pod/cherelle. Pods damaged by Conogethes are exposed to secondary infection by pathogens that lead to pod rot. The larvae sometimes feed on flower buds and flowers cushions. The damaged flower cushions may dry and shed prematurely. The damage of C. punctiferalis on cocoa is observed from December and peak incidence is noticed during March to May. On an average 2 per cent damage was recorded in the Central Plantation Crops Research Institute, Regional Station, Vittal. In order to develop a DNA-based molecular identification system for this species, primers were designed based on two nuclear genes viz., ribosomal protein S5 (RPS5) gene and carbamoyl phosphate synthetase/aspartate transcarbamylase/dihydroorotase (CAD). PCR-amenable DNA was isolated from C. puntiferalis larva. The designed primers amplified single bands of expected sizes using genomic DNA as template. The amplicons were purified, cloned and sequenced and sequence analysis revealed close homology to the gene of interest from related moths.Item Cannibalistic behaviour in captive Western Ghats squirrel, Funambulus tristriatus Waterhouse(2007-02-08) Keshava Bhat, S.Item comparison of biology of tea mosquito bug, Helopeltis bradyi Waterhouse (Hemiptera: Miridae) on different phenological stages of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.)(2017-12) Alagar, M.; Keshava Bhat, S.Item Effect of saturation baiting using multiple dose anticoagulants on the population of black rat in coconut fields(1988-01) Keshava Bhat, S.; Sujatha, A.Item Effect of saturation baiting using multiple dose anticoagulants on the population of black rat in coconut fields(2007-02-08) Keshava Bhat, S.; Sujatha, A.The effect of sustained baiting; with multiple dose anticoagulant such as warfarin and fumarin in re-, ducing the populations of the black rat, Rattus rattus wroughtonl in coconut gardens was studied One time and two times baiting) have reduced the population and damage by nearly 50 per cent and 70 per cent respectively. Continu-ous baiting for three times has reduced the population by 94 par cent and damage by cent per cent The cost involved for three times baiting was not much when com-pared to the" returns from the operation.Item Efficacy of different baits for attracting the Western Ghats squirrel, Funambulus tristriatus Waterhouse(2007-02-08) Keshava Bhat, S.; Mathew, D.N.
