Abstract: One of the major challenges that mankind confronts is providing adequate food to the rapidly growing population of the world, which is calculated to reach an estimate of 8 billions of people in the year 2020. In order to rationalize this, it is mandatory to increase food production through crop protection, which mainly depends on plants. These are often over whelmed by many insect pests and diseases among which insects play a predominant role.
