Coriander is cultivated for its fruits as well as for the tender leaves. The fragrant odour and pleasant aromatic taste of fruits is due to the presence of essential oil content. Insect pests and mites are one of the major limiting factors for higher production of good quality coriander leaves as well as seeds. Among the insect-pests aphid, Hyadaphis corianderi (Das.) was reported to be of regular occurrence infesting coriander in Rajasthan as well as in the country (Jain, 1984).

Abstract


Coriander is cultivated for its fruits as well as for the tender leaves. The fragrant odour and pleasant aromatic taste of fruits is due to the presence of essential oil content. Insect pests and mites are one of the major limiting factors for higher production of good quality coriander leaves as well as seeds. Among the insect-pests aphid, Hyadaphis corianderi (Das.) was reported to be of regular occurrence infesting coriander in Rajasthan as well as in the country (Jain, 1984).
