` ABSTRACT

The bioassay studies of S.litura treated with nano enriched Bt recorded the highest cumulative per cent mortality (96.67) with CaO based Btat 20 ppm which is on par with MgO based Bt (96.67) at 50 ppm, followed by FeO (90.01) 10 ppm and ZnO (86.67) at 20ppm. Where as in control it was 10.00 per cent.

Key words: Bacteria, Viruses, Entomopathogens, Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt)
