The Strengthening Phytosanitary Capacity in Bangladesh (SPCB) Project under Plant Quarantine Wing
(PQW), Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE), Ministry of Agriculture conducted the study for
“Developing Pest List of Plants and Plant Products in Bangladesh” according to the provision of
contract agreement signed between SPCB-DAE and Centre for Resource Development Studies
(CRDS) Ltd. on 15 December 2018. The study is a five-month assignment commencing from 15
December 2018 to 14 May 2019 under the SPCB, DAE. The overall objectives of developing the pest
list of Plants and Plant Products by the SPCB Project is to support the National Plant Protection
Organization (NPPO) for knowing which pests are present in Bangladesh, which pests we need to
evaluate in the study, which pests are associated with the commodities, which pests are present in the
exporting country that may introduce into Bangladesh as an Invasive Alien Species (IAS), which pests
are reasonably likely to follow the pathways and which pests are Quarantine pests for importing
country. To carry out the study, the consultants of the Consulting Firm collected information from 47
Deputy Directors of Agricultural Extension, visited 14 Plant Quarantine Stations (PQSs), and 18
Horticultural Centre of DAE in the country. The study covered the interview of BARI
Researchers/scientists from 16 locations, 06 stations of BRRI, 04 Regional stations of BINA, 02 Tea
Research Institutes one at Moulovibazar and the other at Panchagarh, 05 stations of BJRI and 06
regions of CDB. Information were also collected from Forest Research Institute, Sugar Crop Research
Institute, Wheat and Maize Research Institute, Sugar Mills Corporation and above all from the
Professors of 12 leading Universities of the country. Physical inspection and visits were made to the
sea and land ports of the concerned districts. The consultants also reviewed secondary sources of
information related to the study.

The study findings revealed that 133 insect and mite pests on cereal crops, 83 on pulse crops, 125 on
oilseed crops, 76 on fiber crops, 69 on sugar crops, 39 on tuber crops, 190 on vegetable crops, 313 on
fruit crops, 75 on spices crops, 87 on flower crops, 546 on forest trees, 71 on narcotics and beverage
crops and 133 on medicinal plants were listed. Number of diseases on cereals, pulses, oilseeds, fibre
crops, sugar crops, tuber crops, vegetable crops, fruits, spices, flowers and ornamental plants, forest
trees, narcotics and beverage and medicinal plants were 179, 171, 158, 92, 60, 79, 367, 291, 129, 68,
920, 111 and 16 respectively. Altogether records of 2641 diseases on 405 plant species were
recorded. Number of these 2641 diseases caused by fungi, bacteria, virus, nematode and plant
parasites were 1758, 66, 145, 364 and 108 respectively. As many as 97, 19, 31, 43, 56, 9, 42, 29, 30,
21, 17, 38 and 16 Weed species were recorded on Cereal crops, Pulse crops, Oilseeds crops, Fibre
crops, Sugar crops, Tuber crops, Vegetable crops, Fruit crops, Spices crops, Flower and Ornamental
Plants, Forest trees, Narcotics and Beverage crops, and Medicinal Plants respectively. There are many
Weed species common to different crops, the prevalence and status also varied in different locations.
There was interception of pests at various quarantine stations but with very limited scale. The available
information was not adequate. A total of 832 Insect and mite species, 833 pathogens causing diseases
and 170 weed species were recorded with hosts and are alphabetically presented in summary table.
Similarly, the distributions of major pests in 14 agricultural regions of the country were also presented.
However, detail of the status of each pest was presented in the report.

The findings of the study were presented in the National Level Workshop organized by the SPCB,
PQW of DAE on 17 June 2019. The concerned professionals of agricultural and other universities of
Bangladesh, DAE (Department of Agricultural Extension), research organizations and other relevant
personnel from different organizations were attended the workshop. The online version of this report
will be published at www.dae.gov.bd.

Preface

This Final Report intends to fulfill the requirement of the client according to the provision of contract
agreement signed between the Project Director of Strengthening Phytosanitary Capacity in Bangladesh
(SPCB) Project and the Chairman, Centre for Resource Development Studies (CRDS) Ltd. for
“Developing Pest List of Plants and Plant Products in Bangladesh”. This study is a five-month
assignment during 15 December 2018 to 14 May 2019.

Consultancy services for “Developing Pest List of Plants and Plant Products in Bangladesh” were
provided by the Centre for Resource Development Studies (CRDS) Ltd. The study team consists of five
senior level experts headed by one Team Leader supported by one coordinator and several field and
office level support staffs. Their untiring efforts deserve commendation.

In fact, there exists no pest list for plant and plant products in Bangladesh. The phytosanitary
management strength of Bangladesh is too feeble to comply with the WTO-SPS Agreement and IPPC,
hampering our trade in the context of plants and plant products. So, it was essential to develop a pest
list of plants and plant products at the earliest to cope with the situation. This fact prompted the Plant
Quarantine Wing of DAE to prepare a pest list for the National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO)
for knowing which pests are present in Bangladesh and which pests may intrude into Bangladesh along
with commodities coming from exporting countries as an Invasive Alien Species (IAS).

The Report includes methodology, vise study design, sampling framework and data collection
instruments, guidelines and checklists, details of data collection method, data management, analyses
and findings of the study. According to the scope of work of the study pest lists were prepared plant
and plant product wise and included in the report. The report, in addition, reasonably identified the
pathways followed by pests and listed pests from Importing countries needing quarantine.

The report had been reviewed and discussed thoroughly by the SPCB officials along with other experts
and representatives through several discussion meetings. This report was presented in a national level
workshop for obtaining further comments and suggestions to make it more resourceful. The consultants
prepared the Final Report of the assigned study based on those comments and suggestions of the
client and experts.

Executive Summary

Pest list of plants and plant products is a prerequisite for importing and exporting any commodity.
According to APHIS (Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service), listing of pest of any commodity
80% work of PRA is finished. But in Bangladesh practically there is no pest list for any plants or plant
products. For this reason, Strengthening Phytosanitary Capacity in Bangladesh (SPCB) Project of Plant
Quarantine Wing has taken an initiative to finalize the pest list. For developing the pest list, the expert
team working in the University, Research organization and Department of Agricultural Extension
worked together under the umbrella of Centre for Resources Development Studies to develop a pest
list of Bangladesh. Accordingly, the team conducted survey and collected pest list data from the
relevant organization and then verified the data with different sources for making pest list.

Bangladesh is basically an agricultural country. Hundreds of plant species are grown in this country. A
large number of commodities are both exported and imported annually. In both cases, knowledge on
pest problems of exporting as well as importing countries in full scale is pre-requisite before exportation
and/or importation. Unfortunately Bangladesh has no document on full account of pest problems of
plants and plant products of the country. The Govt. of Bangladesh is implementing a project on
“Strengthening Phytosanitary Capacity in Bangladesh” under Plant Quarantine Wing of Department of
Agricultural Extension (DAE) under the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA). The Plant Quarantine Wing is
executing an assignment on making pest list of plants and plant products in Bangladesh with the
assistance of Center for Resource Development Studies Ltd. (CRDS). The major task of the Firm is to
make a pest list (Insect and mites, diseases, weeds) of all plants and plant products of this country.

For convenience, all plants are grouped under 13 categories namely Cereal crops, Pulse crops,
Oilseed crops, Fibre crops, Sugar crops, Tuber crops, Vegetable crops, Fruit crops, Spices crops,
Flower and Ornamental Plants, Forest trees, Narcotics and Beverage crops, and Medicinal plants.
Under each category three separate lists i.e. insect and mite pests, diseases and weeds were
prepared. In addition, all recorded pests are summarized alphabetically showing hosts. Finally a table
has been prepared on the distribution of recorded pests in 14 agricultural regions of the country. The
report also included the information on intercepted pests at various Quarantine stations of the country.

The sources of data are the published documents of all agricultural research institutes, Universities,
DAE, Quarantine Stations, Personal Contact and Internet searching.

Results revealed that altogether 133 insect and mite pests were recorded on cereal crops of which 65,
27, 27, 8 and 6 pests were recorded on rice, wheat, maize, sorghum and millets respectively. A total of
83 insect and mite pests of pulse crops are listed, of which 8, 14, 19, 7, 11, 14, 6 and 4 pests were
recorded on lentil, chickpea, mungbean, grasspea, cowpea, blackgram, pigeon pea and field pea
respectively. Altogether 125 insect and mite pests of oil seed are listed, of which 8, 45, 9, 7, 8, 4, 37, 4
and 3 pests were recorded on mustard, groundnut, sesame, linseed, sunflower, safflower, soybean,
niger and castor respectively. Altogether 76 insect and mite pests of fiber crops are listed, of which 19,
4, 4, 31,13 and 5 pests were recorded on jute, kenaf, mesta, cotton, silk cotton and Burma shimul
respectively. Altogether 69 insect and mite pests of sugar crops are listed, of which 38, 7, 12, 9 and 3
pests were recorded on sugarcane, sugar beet, date palm, palmyra palm and golpata respectively.
Insect and mite pests of 17 different vegetable crops such as brinjal, potato, sweet potato, aroids, yam,
cabbage, cauliflower, knolkhol, radish, turnip, lady’s finger, tomato, cucurbits, bean, kangkong, lettuce
and amaranthus are included under the pests of vegetable crops. Altogether 229 insect and mite pests

ix
of vegetable crops are listed. Insect and mite pests of 28 different fruit crops are included under the
pests of fruit crops. Altogether 313 insect and mite pests of fruit crops are listed. Insect and mite pests
of 15 different spices crops are included under this category. Altogether 75 insect and mite pests of
spices crops are listed. Insect and mite pests of 21 different flower crops are included. Altogether 87
insect and mite pests of flower crops are listed. Insect and mite pests of 52 different forest trees are
included under the pests of forest trees. Altogether 546 insect and mite pests of forest trees are listed.
Insect and mite pests of 6 different narcotics and beverage crops such as tobacco, hemp, betel leaf,
betel nut, tea and coffee are included under this category. Altogether 71 insect and mite pests of
narcotics and beverage crops are listed. Insect and mite pests of 24 different medicinal plants are
included under this category. Altogether 133 insect and mite pests of medicinal plants are listed.

The total number of plant species under twelve groups was 401 and the number under each group was
found to vary. Plant species under cereals, pulses, oilseeds, fibre crops, sugar crops, tuber crops,
vegetables, fruit crops, spices, flowers crops, forest trees, narcotics & beverage and medicinal plants
were 8, 8, 9, 7, 4, 3, 29, 38, 18, 25, 242, 7 and 6 respectively. The pathogens involved in causing these
diseases were fungi, bacteria, viruses, nematodes and parasitic plants. Number of diseases on cereals,
pulses, oilseeds, fibre crops, sugar crops, tuber crops, vegetable crops, fruits, spices, flowers and
ornamental plants, forest trees, narcotics & beverage and medicinal plants were 179, 171, 158, 92, 60,
79, 367, 291, 129, 68, 920, 111 and 19 respectively. Altogether records of 2644 diseases on 401 plant
species were recorded. Number of these 2644 diseases caused by fungi, bacteria, virus, nematode
and plant parasites were 1966, 66, 145, 356 and 111 respectively.

As many as 97, 19, 31, 43, 56, 51, 29, 30, 21, 17, 38 and 16 Weed species were recorded on Cereal
crops, Pulse crops, Oilseeds crops, Fibre crops, Sugar crops, Vegetable crops, Fruit crops, Spices
crops, Flower and Ornamental Plants, Forest trees, Narcotics and Beverage crops, and Medicinal
Plants respectively. There are many Weed species common to different crops, the prevalence and
status also varied in different locations.

There was interception of pests at various quarantine stations but with very limited scale. The available
information was not adequate. Actually the facilities and activities of quarantine stations required
improvement.

A total of 832 Insect and mite species, 833 pathogens causing diseases and 170 weed species were
recorded with hosts and are alphabetically presented in summary table. Similarly, the distributions of
major pests in 14 agricultural regions of the country are also presented in a separate table. There was
variation in weed occurrence in different regions.

This report has immense value for import and export of commodities from and to other countries. It is
important to note that such list needs to be updated in every five years. The Quarantine Wing of DAE
will develop necessary program for such study.

1.0 SCOPE AND METHODOLOGY OF PEST LISTING OF PLANT
AND PLANT PRODUCTS IN BANGLADESH
1.1 Background
Pest risk analysis provides the rationale for phytosanitary measures for a specified PRA area. It
evaluates scientific evidence to determine whether an organism is a pest. If so, the analysis evaluates
the probability of introduction and spread of the pest and the magnitude of potential economic
consequences in a defined area, using biological or other scientific and economic evidence. If the risk
is deemed unacceptable, the analysis may continue by suggesting management options that can
reduce the risk to an acceptable level. Subsequently, pest risk management options may be used to
establish phytosanitary regulations.

For some organisms, it is known beforehand that they are pests, but for others, the question of whether
or not they are pests should initially be resolved.

The pest risks posed by the introduction of organisms associated with a particular pathway, such as a
commodity, should also be considered in a PRA. The commodity itself may not pose a pest risk but
may harbour organisms that are pests. Lists of such organisms are compiled during the initiation stage.
Specific organisms may then be analyzed individually, or in groups where individual species share
common biological characteristics.

Less commonly, the commodity itself may pose a pest risk. When deliberately introduced and
established in intended habitats in new areas, organisms imported as commodities (such as plants for
planting, biological control agents and other beneficial organisms, and living modified organisms
(LMOs)) may pose a risk of accidentally spreading to unintended habitats causing injury to plants or
plant products. Such risks may also be analyzed using the PRA process.

The PRA process is applied to pests of cultivated plants and wild flora, in accordance with the scope of
the IPPC. It does not cover the analysis of risks beyond the scope of the IPPC.

Provisions of other international agreements may address risk assessment (e.g. the Convention on
Biological Diversity and the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety to that convention).

Bangladesh is importing and exporting several crops and crop products from other countries and for
that a knowledge on existing pests of different crops are essential. Unfortunately Bangladesh has no
document with full account of pest problems of plants and plant products of the country. Thus the
present study was undertaken.

1.2 Scope of Pest Listing


The major functions and responsibilities of the Firm will be to develop a pest list of plants and plant
products as specified in the TOR following the guideline provided by the Project Director, SPCB
against the desired outputs. To collect the necessary information the firm is required to visit all
Agricultural Research Institutions/Organizations, relevant Universities, DAE and Plant Quarantine
Wing of DAE, Agricultural products Importers and Exporters Association, Food Product
Processing Industries, EPB, Private sector agricultural research institutions and Hortex
Foundation etc.

Page-1
1.3 Objectives
The overall objective of the study is to compile a Pest List of plants and plant products to support
National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO) for knowing (a) which pests are present in Bangladesh;
(b) which pests we need to evaluate in the PRA and (c) (i) which pests are associated with the
commodity (ii) which pests are present in exporting country that may introduce into Bangladesh as an
Invasive Alien Species (IAS) (iii) which pests are reasonably likely to follow the pathways (iv) which
pests are Quarantine pests for importing country.

The Specific Objectives of the study are:


- Developing a list of all kinds of pest present in Bangladesh that attacks plants and plant
products;
- While developing pest list the above mentioned guideline may be followed. Addition to the
list like status of distribution (High/Medium/Low) is encouraged &
- Perform other responsibilities assigned by PD of SPCB.

technical and specific to the subject and substantial information may be given the experts in the
discipline. The team will meet with experts of plant Protection Wing of DAE and BARI and others
places. The discussion will help in finalizing the approach to the study.

Identification of Pests Specific to an Area


Some pests are common in almost all area. But there are some species, the prevalence of which is
more specific to an area(s). For this initially secondary data will be sorted to identify the area of
prevalence according to pest species. Subsequently primary data will be collected by field visit in
selected area as well as research organizations/institutions and interviewing with the phytosanitary
experts (including PRA Consultant, PD SPCB). Finally the analysis of all data will lead to the
identification specific area.

Development of Data Collection Instruments/Survey format


The survey Formats for collection of information on insect and mite pests, diseases and weeds of
different plants and plant product have been developed and are presented in Appendices-II, III & IV.
Similarly all recorded pests are arranged alphabetically in a separate Format (Appendix-V). The
Regional distribution of pests are also included (Appendix-VI). Data collection on intercepted pests
form Quarantine stations intercepted pest are also done (Format-VII). All proposed Formats for Data
collection are discussed with SPCB.

Page-3
Data collection using Formats
The secondary data on insect pests, diseases and weeds of pulses were collected from scientists of
research institutes, university teachers, DAE personnel, books, journals, published reports, CD of CABI
and internet searching. After analysis and editing of all collected data, four types of reports are
prepared i.e. pests problem in plants and plant product, summary of all recorded pests arranged
alphabetically with hosts, distribution of pests to 14 agricultural regions and pests interception in
quarantine stations.

Rating of pests
Based on information from different sources rating of pests was done on the basis of its distribution,
incidence and severity of damage as follows:
+++ = very widespread and very important
++ = widespread and important
+ = important locally present
- = not present

2.0 RECORDED INSECT AND MITE PESTS OF PLANT AND PLANT PRODUCTS
Insect and mites are the important organisms in the world as well as in Bangladesh causing damage to plant and plant products both in field and storage.
They cause considerable yield loss every year and so is the case in Bangladesh. These organisms could be easily disseminated with different plant parts
not only within the boundary of a country but may move globally. In order to avoid unnecessary hindrance of international trade every country should
have a complete list of pests. Therefore, the present work is the efforts towards making a list of insect and mite pests of different plants and plant
products for Bangladesh.

The relevant information was collected from different authentic sources such as discussions with the scientists from the research organizations and
teachers of different Universities and from different documents like article published in annual reports, bulletins, scientific journals and proceedings of
workshops/ conferences/ seminars and the internet resources. Plant and plant products are categorized into 12 groups such as cereal crops, pulse crops,
oilseed crops, fiber crops, sugar crops, vegetable crops, fruit crops, spices crops, flower and ornamental plants, forest trees, narcotics and beverage
crops and medicinal plants. Insect and mite pests of each plant and plant group listed separately herein.

2.1 Recording Insect and Mite Pests of Cereal Crops


On the basis of information from different authentic sources insect and mite pests of cereal crops in Bangladesh are grouped as rice, wheat, maize,
soughum and millets pests. Altogether 133 insect and mite pests of cereal crops are listed in Table 1. Out of 133 pests 65, 27, 27, 8 and 6 pests were
recorded on rice, wheat, maize, sorghum and millets respectively. In rice, status of the 20 pests was in the range of medium to high with common to wide
distribution in the country. Similarly, for wheat, maize, sorghum and millet number of pests with medium to high status and common to wide distribution
were 6, 8, 6, and 5 respectively (Table 1). Plant parts affected include leaf, seedling, root, stem, panicle, grain, and flouer.

2.2 Recording Insect and Mite Pests of Pulse Crops


On the basis of information from different authentic sources insect and mite pests of pulse crops in Bangladesh are grouped as lentil, chickpea,
mungbean, grasspea, cowpea, blackgram, pigeon pea and field pea pests. Altogether 83 insect and mite pests of pulse crops are listed in Table 2 of
which 8, 14, 19, 7, 11, 14, 6 and 4 pests were recorded on lentil, chickpea, mungbean, grasspea, cowpea, blackgram, pigeon pea and field pea
respectively. In lentil, status of 4 pests was in the range of medium to high with common to wide distribution in the country. Similarly, for chickpea,
mungbean, grasspea, cowpea, blackgram, pigeon pea and field pea number of pests with medium to high status and common to wide distribution were 3,
12, 3, 4, 9, 4 and 3 respectively (Table 2). Plant parts affected include seedling, leaf, stem, twig, inflorescence, bud, flower, pod and seed.

2.3 Recording Insect and Mite Pests of Oilseed Crops
Insect and mite pests of 9 different oil seed crops such as mustard, groundnut, sesame, linseed, sunflower, safflower, soybean, niger and castor are
included under the pests of oilseed crops. Altogether 125 insect and mite pests of oil seed are listed in Table 3 of which 8, 45, 9, 7, 8, 4, 37, 4 and 3
pests were recorded on mustard, groundnut, sesame, linseed, sunflower, safflower, soybean, niger and castor respectively. In mustard, status of 2 insect
pests was in the range of medium to high with common to wide distribution with common to wide distribution in the country. Similarly, for groundnut,
sesame, linseed, sunflower and soybean number of pests with medium to high status and common to wide distribution were 12, 3, 1, 4 and 6 respectively
(Table 3). None of the pest was recorded as medium to high status and common to wide distribution for safflower, niger and castor. Plant parts affected
include seedling, leaf, stem, twig, bud, flower, inflorescence, pod and seed.

3.0 RECORDED DISEASES OF PLANTS AND PLANT PRODUCTS
Globally, disease causing agents are the vital pests of plant and plant products causing considerable crop losses and so is the case in Bangladesh. As
the disease causing entities are microscopic these could be easily disseminated with different plant and/or plant products not only within the boundary of
a country but may move globally and there is possibility of introducing a new devastating pathogen in a country which is otherwise free from it and create
additional concern to the growers. This could be avoided if there is ready reference on the association of pathogen with plant and plant products. Pest list
of a country is the ready reference that helps any importing country to take decision if there they should import a particular commodity from a particular
country. Therefore, to avoid unnecessary hindrance of international trade and deployment of required phytosanitary measures every country should have
a comprehensive pest list. The present work is the efforts towards making a pest list for Bangladesh. In this section information related to disease was
collected from the plant species under 13 groups such as cereals, pulses, oilseed crops, fibre, sugar crops, tuber crops, vegetables, fruits, spices &
condiments, flower, forest trees, narcotics & beverage, and medicinal plants.

Relevant information was collected from different authentic sources such as discussions with the scientists from the research organizations, teachers of
different Universities, field level extension officers and from different documents like article published in annual reports, bulletins, scientific journals and
proceedings of workshops/ conferences/seminars and the internet resources. Total number of plant species under 13 groups was 401 and the number
under each group found to vary. Number of plant species under cereals, pulses, oilseed crops, fibre, sugar crops, tuber crops, vegetables, fruits, spices &
condiments, flowers and ornamental plants, forest trees, narcotics & beverage, and medicinal plants were 8, 8, 9, 7, 4, 3, 29, 38, 18, 25, 239, 7 and 5,
respectively. The pathogens involved in causing these diseases were fungi, bacteria, viruses, nematodes and parasitic plants. Number of diseases on
cereals, pulses, oilseed crops, fibre crops, sugar crops, tuber crops, vegetable crops, fruits, spices & condiments, flowers and ornamental plants, forest
trees, narcotics & beverage, medicinal plants were 179, 171, 158, 92, 60, 79, 367, 291, 129, 68, 920, 111 and 19 respectively. Altogether records of 2644
diseases on 400 plant species were compiled. Among these 2641 diseases 1966, 66, 145, 356 and 111 are caused by fungi, bacteria, virus, nematode
and parasitic plants.

3.1 Recording Diseases of Cereal Crops


The relevant information collected on the cereals such as rice, wheat, maize, barley, oat, soughum and millets (kaon & cheena) growing in Bangladesh
from different authentic sources. Altogether 179 diseases including fungal, bacterial, viral & MLOs, nematode, Phytoplasma and Parasitic plants are listed
in Table 14. Out of 179 diseases 43, 52, 43, 25, 11, 1 and 4 were recorded on rice, wheat, maize, millets, barley, oat and sorghum, respectively. In rice,
among the 43 diseases 27 were caused by fungal pathogens, 4 by bacteria, 2 by virus/mycoplasma and 10 by nematodes. In wheat 35, 2, 2 and 13
diseases are caused by fungi, bacteria, virus and nematodes, respectively. The corresponding figures for maize were 24, 1, 5 and 13 respectively. In
millets (kaon & cheena) the recorded fungal diseases were16 and 9 were nemic diseases. Five fungal diseases two virus and four nemic diseases were
recorded on barley and one fungal disease was found on Oat and only four fungal diseases were found on sorghum. In rice, status of 15 diseases was in
the range of medium to high with common to widely distribute in the country. Similarly, for wheat, maize, millet and oat number of diseases with medium

Page-147
to high status and common to wide distribution were 11, 6, 5, and 1 respectively (Table 14). Plant parts affected include leaf, sheath, stem, seed, panicle
and root.

3.2 Recording Diseases of Pulse Crops
Diseases of pulses in Bangladesh along with their causal agents have been compiled from the earlier reports, scientific articles published in Journals,
proceedings of workshops/ seminars/ conferences which were very much scattered, from the internet resources. For collecting the documents relevant
scientists and teachers from different research organizations and universities were met who helped generously according to their capacity. Altogether
171 diseases were recorded to occur on eight pulse crops namely lentil, chickpea, mungbean, grasspea, cowpea, field pea, pigeon pea and backgram.
Among these crops the highest but equal number of disease (28 in each) was found on chickpea and mungbean, which was followed by blackgram (27),
lentil (24), cowpea (21), grasspea (20), field pea (12) and the lowest number of diseases (11) were found on pigeon pea. Among the 171 diseases, fungal
diseases were dominated over other pathogens and the total number was 123. Number of diseases caused by bacteria, virus and nematode pathogens
were 2, 27 and 19, respectively. Number of diseases caused by different groups of pathogens among the pulse species varied. On lentil out of 24
diseases 19 are caused by fungal pathogen, three by virus and two were caused by nematode. On lentil no record of any bacterial disease was found.
Similarly, out of 28 diseases on chickpea, 22, 3 and 3 diseases respectively were fungal, viral and nemic disease. Number of fungal diseases on
mungbean, grasspea, cowpea, field pea, pigeon pea and black gram were 16, 15, 15, 9, 6 and 21, respectively. Record on bacterial disease was found
only on mungbean and cowpea- one on each. Number of virus diseases on lentil, chickpea, mungbean, grasspea, cowpea, field pea, pigeon pea and
black gram were 3, 3, 6, 2, 4, 2, 3 and 4 respectively and the corresponding figures for nemic diseases were 2, 3, 5, 3, 1, 1, 2 and 2, respectively (Table
15).

3.3 Recording Diseases of Oilseed Crops


Exploring the old documents including current ones at all the relevant research organizations and universities and internet resources revealed the records
of 158 diseases on eight oilseed crops growing in Bangladesh. The crop species were rape & mustard, sesame, groundnut, soybean, sunflower, linseed,
castor, safflower and niger. As per the records, number of diseases on these crops was 29, 19, 37, 30, 20, 12, 3, 5 and 3 respectively. After the
compilation of Talukdar in 1974, there was no report of any new disease on castor. As shown in Cereals and Pulses maximum number of diseases in
oilseed crops was also caused by fungal pathogens. Out of 158 diseases, number of fungal, bacterial, virus and nemic diseases was 105, 3, 15 and 35,
respectively. This trend is more or less similar in all the eight species of oilseed crops included for this study. In rape & mustard the number of diseases
caused by fungi, bacteria, virus and nematode was 18, 1, 2 and 8 respectively. In sesame no bacterial disease was found and out of 19 diseases 16 were
caused by fungi, one by virus and two by nematode pathogen. In groundnut, the total number of diseases was highest (37) among the eight crop species.
On this crop also, so far, no bacterial disease was recorded. The highest number of diseases (19) was caused by fungal pathogen, which was followed
by nematode pathogen (13) and virus (5). Total records of 30 diseases were found on soybean diseases, of which 18, 2, 6 and 4 were fungus, bacterial,
virus and nemic diseases. Unlike other oilseed crop species prevalence of virus diseases were in the second position in soybean. In sunflower, out of 20
diseases 14, 1 and 5 number of diseases were caused by fungi, virus and nematode pathogens. In Linseed, out of 12 diseases 9 were fungal and 3 were
caused by nematode. In castor, safflower and niger only 3, 5 and 3 diseases were found and all were fungal disease (Table 16). Among the diseases, the
status of maximum number of diseases was low with common distribution and nine diseases were with high status and wide distribution.

3.4 Recording Diseases of Fibre crops
While exploring the documents related to diseases of fibre crops in Bangladesh, records of 92 diseases were obtained on seven different species of fibre
crops namely cotton, jute, kenaf, mesta, sunhemp, flax and rhea with 21, 20, 21, 22, 4, 3 and 1 diseases respectively on each crop. Among these 70, 1, 6
and 15 diseases were caused by fungal, bacterial, virus and nematode pathogens. It showed that fungi are the most dominating pathogens causing
maximum number of diseases followed by nematode followed by virus and bacteria. This trend could be seen in all the seven species of fibre crops
(Table 17). Out of 21 diseases on cotton, number of diseases caused by fungus, bacteria, virus and nematode were 13, 1, 1 and 6, respectively. The
distributions of 20 diseases of jute under these four groups of pathogen were 14, 0, 1 and 5 respectively. The corresponding figures for kenaf and mesta
were 17, 0, 2, 2 and 18, 0, 2 and 2 respectively. Records of only fungal diseases were found on sunhemp, flax and rhea and the number of diseases on
these crops were 4, 3 and 1 respectively (Table 17).

3.5 Recording Diseases of Sugar Crops


In Bangladesh sugarcane is the single major sugar crop. Recently attention has been given on other sugar crops like sugar beet, date palm and palm.
However not much works have been done on these minor sugar crops and same is the case for studies on diseases. Diseases, recorded on sugar crops
in Bangladesh along with their causal agents have been compiled from the earlier reports, scientific articles published in Journals, proceedings of
workshops/ seminars/ conferences which were very much scattered and from the internet resources. For collecting the documents relevant scientists and
teachers from different research organizations and universities were met who helped generously according their capacity. Altogether 60 diseases were
recorded to occur on four sugar crops namely sugarcane, sugarbeet, date palm and palm. Among these crops the highest number of disease (44) was
found on sugarcane, which was followed by sugarbeet (6), date palm (6) and palm (4). Among the 60 diseases 32 were fungal diseases, 5 bacterial, 4
virus, 13 and 2 diseases are caused by nematode and phanerogamic parasites. Out of 44 diseases recorded on sugarcane crop, 24, 5, 4, 9 and 2 were
caused by fungi, bacteria, virus, nematode and parasitic plants. Similarly, out of 6 diseases on sugarbeet, 2 and 4 diseases were fungal and nemic
respectively. Only fungal diseases were so far recorded on date palm (6) and palm (4) (Table 18).

3.7 Recording Diseases of Vegetable Crops


Results of the listing of vegetable diseases are shown in Table 20. Altogether 367 diseases were found on 29 different types of vegetable species. All the
four groups of pathogens namely, fungus, bacteria, virus/mycoplasma and nematode were involved in causing the diseases. Among the diseases the
highest number (199) was found to be caused by fungal pathogens, which was followed by nematode (110), virus/mycoplasma (41) and the lowest
number was bacterial diseases (17). With regards to total number of diseases tomato (40) and eggplant (39) was followed by okra (23), country bean
(22), cucumber (21) and sweet gourd (20) diseases were recorded. Ten vegetables where the number of diseases ranged from 10 to less than 20 were
radish (18), cauliflower (17), cabbage (16), bottle gourd (16), Amaranth (15), ash gourd (13), Indian spinach (12), ribbed gourd (11) and bitter gourd (10).
On Tamato the number of diseases caused by fungi, bacteria, virus and nematode was 17, 2, 9 and 12 respectively, which was closely followed by
eggplant where the number of fungal, bacterial, virus and nematode diseases recorded was 22, 2, 2 and 13 respectively (Table 20).

3.8 Recording Diseases of Fruit Crops


While exploring the occurrence of diseases on fruit crops in Bangladesh we come across the records of 291 diseases on 38 fruit species including minor
fruit species. Of course, the exact number of fruit species will be more because here we considered all the citrus species as one fruit. Among the 291
diseases most of the diseases (229) were fungal disease; this was followed by nematode disease where the number was 38. Number of diseases caused
by other groups of organisms such as bacteria, virus and parasitic plants were 12, 8 and 4 respectively. Records of fungal diseases were obtained on all
the 38 crops included in this report and number of diseases on each crop ranged from 1 to 36. The highest was on mango followed by jackfruit (21),
citrus (19), ber (18), guava (16), papaya (14) and coconut (12). Number of recorded diseases on banana, pineapple, water melon, litchi and wood apple
were 10, 8, 8, 7 and 6, respectively. Number of diseases on rest of the fruit crops ranged from 1-4, mostly with one. Bacterial diseases were recorded
only on citrus, guava, mango, banana, litchi, pine apple and papaya having 3, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1 and 2 diseases, respectively. Eight virus diseases were
recorded on five fruit crops namely citrus (1), banana (2), coconut (1), water melon (1) and papaya (3) only. All the 38 nematode diseases were found on
six crop species. The highest number of nematode diseases was 13 and was found on pine apple. Number of nemic diseases on citrus, banana, coconut,
water melon and papaya was 10, 7, 3, 3 and 2, respectively. On each of mango and black berry tree one phanerogamic parasite was found (Table 21).
Number of diseases with high status was 29 and 60 diseases were with medium status and status of rest of the diseases were low. Leaf is the most
common site of infection for most of the diseases followed by fruits and roots. In mango some wood decaying fungi were also recorded. Detail results of
the findings are presented in Table 21.

3.9 Recording Diseases of Spices Crops


Details of the diseases of 18 spice crops growing in Bangladesh are shown in Table 22. Altogether records of 129 diseases were found on 18 spice
crops. Among these 96 were caused by fungi, four by bacteria, four by virus and 21 by nematode pathogens. The highest number of diseases (30) was
found on onion, which was followed by chilli (27), garlic (16) and coriander (9). On other spice crops number of diseases ranged 1-7. Among the 30
diseases on onion, 20 were fungal disease, two bacterial, two viral and five nemic diseases. Number of fungal diseases on chilli, garlic and coriander was
19, 9 and 6 respectively. Bacterial diseases were found only two on of onion and ginger. Records of nematode disease were found on five crops namely
onion, garlic, chilli, coriander and cardamom. Majority of the diseases occurred on leaf, bulb and roots. Out of 129 disease, the status of 21 diseases was
high with common to wide distribution (Table 22).

3.10 Recording Diseases of Flower Plants
Records of diseases on 25 species of flowers growing in Bangladesh were obtained from secondary sources. Details of the information are shown in
Table 23. It reveals from the table that altogether 68 diseases were recorded on 25 flower species. Number of diseases on each crop species varied from
1-12. The highest number of diseases (12) was found on rose followed by tuberose (8), gerbera (7), marigold (6) and champa (6). Record of only one
disease was observed on each of chrysanthemum, gardenia, calendula, lalpata, lupin, krishnachura, polash, balsam, bakful, carnation, aster, orange
jasmine and sephali. Among the 68 diseases 58 were caused by fungal pathogens, five caused by virus, one by bacterial pathogen and four by parasitic
plants. Bacterial disease was recorded only on tuberose (Table 23). Parasitic plants were recorded on champa, golden jasmine and sephali (Table 23).
For most of the diseases leaf is the site of infection and in some cases root, flower bud, flower, stem of the plant and corm are affected. The status of 11
diseases was high, 25 medium and rests of the diseases were with low status. Only a limited number of diseases had wide distribution.

3.11 Recording Diseases of Forest trees


Earlier records indicated that altogether 920 diseases occurred on 239 plant species along with 62 unidentified logs. Plant species included both standing
plants and seedlings in the nursery. Most of the diseases (818) were caused by 395 species of fungal pathogens representing 150 genera (Table-24).
About more than 90% works were reported from Bangladesh Forest Research Institute, Chittagong. Only three diseases were found to cause by three
species of bacteria under a single genus, Pseudomonas. Eight species of parasitic plants reffered to as mistletoe represented four genera was involved
with 99 cases. Among the species of mistletoe the most dominant one was Macrosolen cochinchinensis followed by Scurulla parasitica. Wood decaying
fungi were found to cause damage to both the standing tree as well as plant product such as logs. There were as high as 62 different unidentified logs
found to damage by different fungal species. Wood was found to be the preffered site of infection by different wood decaying fungi. Other plant parts
include leaf, seed, root etc.

3.12 Recording Diseases of Narcotics and Beverage crops
Altogether records of 111 diseases were found on seven narcotics and beverage crops in Bangladesh. Among the seven crops the highest number of
diseases (33) were recorded on betel nut followed by betel vine (27), tea (26) and tobacco (20). On cacao, coffe and Indian hemp number of disease
were 1, 3 and 1 respectively. More than 66% of the diseases were caused by fungal pathogens (74), which was followed by nematode (32) constituted
about 29% of the total disease. Leaf was the major site of infection though other parts of the plants were also attacked by the pathogens. Only root
infecting nematodes were recorded. Among the plant species of this group betel vine was found most vulnerable to the nematodes where as high as 15
plant parasitic nematode species were recorded. Most of the diseases were rated as common (Table 25)

4.0 RECORDED WEEDS OF PLANTS
Weed is a serious pest of growing crops and other plants in Bangladesh. About 250 species of weeds have been identified in the country; these weeds
cause roughly 33% of total crop loss in different crops (CIMMYT 2011). Most of the weeds belong to monocotyledons or dicotyledons. Weed control
involves high cost but crop loss due to improper management in the farmers field is also high. So, cost of cultivation increases. Now, farmers need
appropriate low cost weed control technology. The impact of weeds on major crops, especially, rice, wheat, maize, vegetable and spices crops is
comparatively greater than other pests leading to the reduction of yield. For weed management in crops and vegetables, usual practices done are hand
weeding, mechanical weeding, chemical control and biological control.

Many weeds are found in rice fields as rice is grown in three seasons round the year. They belong to the family of Poaceae, Cyperaceae, Leguminosae,
Asteraceae, Euphorbiaceae, Amaranthaceae, Solanaceae, Scorphulariaceae and Acanthaceae. Weed infestation in rice can cause yield loss of about
43-51% (Rashid et al., 2012). Some of them are terrestrial and some aquatic in nature.

4.1 Recording Weeds of Cereal Crops


Wheat is the second major cereal crop of Bangladesh after rice; although the average yield 3.01t- ha is lower than world average yield3.27t-ha (FAOSTAT,
2013). Weed infestation reducing yield by 24.60-58.46%, is one of the most important reasons that can explain this low yield, (Hossain et al., 2010).
Similarly yield reduction in maize, the third cereal crops of Bangladesh, by about 49.23%, may be attributed to weeds (Gaffar et al., 1988). The major and
minor weed of cereal crops are shown in Table 27.

4.2 Recording Weeds of Pulse Crops


There are different pulses are cultivated in Bangladesh. Of them except grass pea, the other pulses like lentil, mung bean, chickpea and black gram are
sensitive to weed infestation and crop loss also remarkable. Bhuiyan et al. (2018) also reported that yield loss of chickpea caused by early weed
infestation may be about 40-50%. The weed found in the field of pulse crops are illustrated in Table 28.

4.3 Recording Weeds of Oilseed Crops


Among the oilseeds crops like mustard, ground nut, sesame, sunflower, safflower and soybean, mustard is the most important among those cultivated in
Bangladesh. Although oilseeds crops are sensitive to weed infestation but the farmers pay less attention on it. As a result, sometimes drastic yield
reduction occurrs. The major weeds of oilseeds crops are shown in Table 29.

4.4 Recording Weeds of Fibre Crops
The fibre crops in Bangladesh consist of jute and kenaf and cotton but jute is considered to be the major and important one. Monsoon with high
temperature ensure establishment of crop as well as boost up crop weed competition; causes severe yield losses up to 75-80% (Sahoo and Saraswat,
1988). Cotton also suffered severely reduced yield due to early weed-crop competition but farmers pay less attention to it. The weeds prevailing in fibre
crops in Bangladesh are elaborated in Table 30.

4.5 Recording Weeds of Sugar Crops


Sugarcane and sugar beets are the sugar crops cultivated in Bangladesh. Sugarcane remains in the field about 12 months. So, many weeds may infest
the crop and about 20% yield reduction may occur (SRTI, 1978). Therefore, it needs one early weeding to minimize yield reduction for both sugarcane
and sugar beet. The weeds found in sugar crops are listed below in Table 31.

4.7 Recording Weeds of Vegetable Crops


A lot of crops belong to vegetable groups is cultivated in Bangladesh. These include Tomato, Eggplant, Cucurbits, Okra, Cucumber, Beans and many
leafy vegetables. They are cultivated at different times of a year. So, various weeds are infesting vegetable crops round the year. As for example, a leafy
vegetable-Indian Spinach are infested by many weeds and two hand weeding within 30 days after transplanting may achieve maximum benefit (Khan et
al., 2008). The weeds found in vegetable crops are listed below in Table 33.

4.8 Recording Weeds of Fruit Crops
Fruit plants /trees are long-lived. Various types of weeds may infest the fruit garden. Grassy weeds are not competing for nutrient because most tree
plants are deep-rooted. But some parasitic plants are directly sucking nutrient fron the trunk or branch of the infested plants like Loranthus sp. The fruit
plant strawberry is sensitive to weed infestation. Polythene mulch/ straw mulch reduce weed infestation and maximize its yield (Karim et al., 2009). The
major and minor weeds of fruits crops are shown in Table 34.

4.9 Recording Weeds of Spices Crops


A lot of spice crops like onion, garlic, chili, ginger, turmeric, cumin and so on, is grown in the country. Some of the crops are grown in the winter while the
others are grown during 10 months from April to January of a year. So, weed infestation also vary among the crops. Most of the farmers of Bangladesh
usually rely on hand weeding. As a result, the cost of cultivation increases. In such situation herbicide use is necessary. The weeds that prevail in the
spice crops in Bangladesh are listed below in Table 35.

4.10 Recording Weeds of Flower and Ornamental Plants
In Bangladesh, many kinds of flowers and ornamental plants are cultivated in open field, especially, in winter season. Some flowers are grown under
shade to protect these from rain in the summer-rainy season. There are various types of weed infestation in the field. To suppress weeds farmers
generally use hand weeding. Following Table 36 is showing a list of weeds of flowers and ornamentals in Bangladesh.

4.11 Recording Weeds of Forest Trees
Forest crops consist of perennial plants. Weeds like grassy plants/sedges grown in the ground are not harmful to forest trees as they are not competed
for nutrient with them. Some herbs/creeping weeds hindering photosynthesis and make infested tree weak. Table 37 is showing some weeds of forest

4.12 Recording Weeds of Narcotics and Beverage Crops
Among the Narcotics & Beverage crops Tea and Tobacco are considered as two major crops in Bangladesh. Betel nut and betel vine are crops minor in
nature. Betel vine cultivated in protected areas less prone to weed infestation. Tobaccos are growing mainly in plain land whereas tea is growing in high
topography such as in the hilly areas. Tobacco are produced in winter but tea is grown as annual plant. In tea culture, weeds are noxious and perhaps
the most vital antagonistic force to tea productivity. The estimated crop loss by weeds in tea about 9-12% in Bangladesh (Sana,1989). The major and
minor weed of narcotics and beverage crops are shown in Table 38.

Appendix I: Terms of Reference (TOR) for selecting Consulting Firm for
Making Pest List of Plants and Plant Products in Bangladesh

A. BACKGROUND
Pest risk analysis provides the rationale for phytosanitary measures for a specified PRA area. It
evaluates scientific evidence to determine whether an organism is a pest. If so, the analysis
evaluates the probability of introduction and spread of the pest and the magnitude of potential
economic consequences in a defined area, using biological or other scientific and economic
evidence. If the risk is deemed unacceptable, the analysis may continue by suggesting management
options that can reduce the risk to an acceptable level. Subsequently, pest risk management options
may be used to establish phytosanitary regulations.

For some organisms, it is known beforehand that they are pests, but for others, the question of
whether or not they are pests should initially be resolved.

The pest risks posed by the introduction of organisms associated with a particular pathway, such as
a commodity, should also be considered in a PRA. The commodity itself may not pose a pest risk but
may harbour organisms that are pests. Lists of such organisms are compiled during the initiation
stage. Specific organisms may then be analyzed individually, or in groups where individual species
share common biological characteristics.

Less commonly, the commodity itself may pose a pest risk. When deliberately introduced and
established in intended habitats in new areas, organisms imported as commodities (such- as plants
for planting, biological control agents and other beneficial organisms, and living modified organisms
(LMOs)) may pose a risk of accidentally spreading to unintended habitats causing injury to plants or
plant products. Such risks may also be analyzed using the PRA process.

The PRA process is applied to pests of cultivated plants and wild flora, in accordance with the scope
of the IPPC. It does not cover the analysis of risks beyond the scope of the IPPC.

Provisions of other international agreements may address risk assessment (e.g. the Convention on
Biological Diversity and the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety to that convention).

Procedure of Work in brief:


In 1991 there was a typed book published in the name of "An Annotated List of Important Disorders
of Important Crop Plants of Bangladesh" by Dr. G.A. Fakir, Dr. M.A. Gaffer and Mr. M.U. Ahmad.
This was the first book of its kind in Bangladesh but till date there were no efforts to make a Pest List
of Plants and Plant Products in Bangladesh following the international standards and guidelines.

The intend to make a pest list of plants and plant products in Bangladesh is to (a) know which pests
are present in Bangladesh (b) which pests we need to evaluate in the PRA and (c) (i) associated with
the commodity (ii) present in exporting country (iii) reasonably likely to follow the pathway (iv)
Quarantine pests for importing country. Pest list is the combination of pests associated with the host
being analyzed (anywhere in the world) and Pests that occur in the export area (on any commodity).
Pest list look like (example).

The consultants of the consulting firm are required to have a good liaison/communication with the
Agricultural Research Institutions/Organizations, relevant Universities, DAE and Plant Quarantine
Wing of DAE, Agricultural products Importers and Exporters Association, Food Product Processing
Industries, EPB, Private sector agricultural research institutions and Hortex Foundation etc.

For developing a pest list of plants and plant products it is required to know Commodity Information
which contains:-
1. (a) Taxonomy (i) Genus level (ii) Species level (b) Parts of the plant being imported (c)
Morphological characteristics (d) Biology of the commodity (i) Seasonality (growth,
susceptibility to pests at various stages) (e) Degree of processing (f) Production practices (i)
Pre-harvest to packaging(ii)Standard industry practices
2. Country Specific information (a) Pests associated with commodity (b) Production areas (c)
Production practices (i) Harvest, post-harvest handling (Provided by NPPO of exporting
country) (d) Taxonomy/Diagnostics (i) Include synonyms (ii) Distribution : Present in export
area, Present in Bangladesh?, Host range, Part of plant attacked
3. Life cycle and feeding habits (i) Association with commodity at various life stages

- A pest may occur in neighboring countries only need not require to include in list
- Add text before or after the list with this information
- Poor host association / only laboratory evidence of host association
- Can include in list but describe uncertainty in the "notes" column.

B. Objectives:
The overall objective of developing the Pest list of plants and plant products by the SPCB Project is
to support National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO) for knowing

(a) which pests are present in Bangladesh


(b) which pests we need to evaluate in the PRA and
(c) (i) which pests are associated with the commodity (ii) which pests are present in exporting
country that may introduce into Bangladesh as an Invasive Alien Species (JAS) (iii) which pests are
reasonably likely to follow the pathways (iv) which pests are Quarantine pests for importing country.

In principle there is no pest list exists in Bangladesh for which Plant Quarantine Wing of DAE has
been suffering since long because Bangladesh cannot provide any pest list to the NPPO of the
importing country when they asked to provide. It indicates that Bangladesh has no or a very few
phytosanitay strength to comply with the WTO-SPS Agreement and IPPC which hampers our trade in
the context of plants and plant products. So, it was essential to develop a pest list as soon as
possible to cope with the situation.

The Specific Objectives of the recruitment of Developing Pest List/Making Pest List Consulting Firm
are:

- Developing a list of all kinds of pest present in Bangladesh that attacks plants and plant
products;
- While developing pest list the above mentioned guideline may be followed. Addition to the list
like status of distribution (High/Medium/Low) is encouraged but deletion of any information of
the guideline is unacceptable, &;
- Perform other responsibilities assigned by PD of SPCB.

C. Qualification and Experience:


The qualification and experience of developing pest list Consulting Firm should be as below -
- The consulting firm should have minimum 05 (Five) years professional experience in the
