| Article Name : | | | BIODIVERSITY OF JASSIDS FROM AGROECOSYSTEMS OF SIDHI DISTRICT (M.P.) | | Author Name : | | | Sushil Kumar Prajapati , Arti Saxena and Akhilesh Kumar Suman | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | ROR-1668 | | Article : | |  | Author Profile | | Abstract : | | | Jassids (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) are cell sap sucking insects of plants of economic importance. While sucking the cell sap they inject toxins into the plant body and cause yellowing and curling of leaves and flowers. Eventually, growth of the plant is retarded and flowering and fruiting bodies drop down. The sooty moulds affect photosynthesis and the yield of crops. Therefore, biodiversity of Jassids has been reported from Sidhi district. In all, 22 species of Jassids belonging to the genera Deltocephalus, Empoasca, Nilaparvata, Nephotettix, Recilia, Cofta and Typhlocyba have been found damaging various crops of Sidhi district. | | Keywords : | | - Sidhi district ,Sidhi district ,Sidhi district ,Sidhi district ,
