Meteorological factors affecting the epidemiology of the cotton leaf worm and the pink bollworm

Author: World Meteorological Organization (WMO)

In many countries Cotton is an important commercial crop, but two insects are widely distributed and inflict considerable loss and damage. This report deals with the meteorological factors affecting the epidemiology of these two pests, the cotton leaf worm, Spodoptera littoralis (Boisd) and the pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypielia (Saund).
