Stored tamarind seeds were infected with some kind of internal feeding pest. It was recognized by the white eggs on the seed surface and the round exit holes on seed coat.

 Then eggs were observed under foldscope using a paper slide. It was oval in shape with an external layer or egg shell called chorion. There was a tunnel like opening at the sharper end called as respiratory tube for gaesous exchange.

Viewing eggs of tamarind pest-#Indiafoldscopephase 1

In our institute garden of Jyothy Institute of Technology (Bangalore), we found leaves infected with some disease. Leaves were severely infected and turned yellow and on the leaf surface there were dark black spots.

 Infected leaves were suspended in water then that water was observed under foldscope. We found club shaped
 
 Alternaria
 
 spores.

 Fig: Alternaria spores and structures observed under foldscope


 
 Alternaria
 
 is a genus of ascomycete fungi.
 
 Alternaria
 
 species are known as major plant pathogens. At least 20% of agricultural spoilage is caused by Alternaria species; most severe losses may reach up to 80% of yield, though. They are also common allergens in humans, growing indoors and causing hay fever or hypersensitivity reactions that sometimes lead to asthma.

 Fig: Rust spores under foldscope


 It was leaf rust. This fungal disease predominantly caused by
 
 puccinia
 
 species, occurs primarily on the lower surface of leaves.

North-East Twinning Program: Workshop on Foldscope and Its Applications for Indian Farming and Horticulture Practisers- #Indiafoldscopephase1

Brown Plant Hopper
 


 
 Scientific names:
 
 
 Nilaparvata lugens
 
 (Stal)


 
 Manipuri Name:
 
 
 Waikupchubi
 


 The
 
 brown planthopper are
 
 the most important pests of rice, which is the major staple crop for about half the world’s population.They damage rice directly through feeding and also by transmitting two viruses, rice ragged stunt virus and rice grassy stunt virus. High population of planthoppers cause leaves to initially turn orange-yellow before becoming brown and dry and this is a condition called “hopperburn” that kills the plant.  This pest is known to migrate long distances, such as from tropical southern China north to Japan in large numbers.


 
 Morphological characteristics
 
 (as observed under foldscope)

<ul>
 <li>
 
 Adults are ochraceous brown in colour dorsally and deep brown ventrally
 
 </li>
 <li>
 Antenna is long and on pedicel of antenna is bulbous (Fig 1)
 </li>
 <li>
 Wings with annal veins and forms Y shaped structures( Fig 2)
 </li>
 <li>
 At the end of the tibiae of the hind legs, there is a movable flattened spur (the “calcar”) that is found only in delphacidae family (Fig 3)
 </li>
</ul>
