PIBs from Biovirus-S, ingested by larvae
cause severe infection of larval bodies
causing darkening, disintegration of tissues,
larval death and release of whitish fluid
within 2-4 days of applications at young
larval stages.The NPV infection is at times
carried inside the infected pupae &
adults.The caterpillars emerging out of
the eggs layed by such adults also carry
the PIBs of NPV.
