Studies carried out under laboratory condition to know dose mortality response between different instars of H. armigera and N. rileyi indicated that fungus performed better at its higher concentration (108 conidia/ml) compared to lower concentrations viz., 107, 105, 103 and 102 conidia/ml. Early instars were more susceptible to fungus.
