Abstract

Hyposidra talaca looper caterpillar North-East India NPV PCR tea pest
We identified the nucleopolyhedrovirus (HytaNPV), specific to Hyposidra talaca, a major defoliator of tea in India by partial amplification of polyhedrin gene. The sequence analysis revealed HytaNPV is closely related to NPVs that infect Buzura suppressaria and Ectropis obliqua, in China.
