llection and raring of insect: Identifying and collecting culture of insect species from infested field and mass raring. Standardization of bioassay methods for evaluation of plant extracts on newer insect/crop models, bio-efficacy data generation and statistical analysis. Laboratory evaluation: Conducting bioassay for screening of various extracts for mortality, growth inhibition and antifeeding index against targeted pests. Cultivation of various crops & standardizing method for evaluation of products in pots /semi-field conditions against crop specific pests. General: Responsibility to develop and implement novel insect rearing techniques and bioassays. Additionally, good knowledge in statistical methods and preparation of SOP’s/ reports. ...
