Hyblaea puera Cramer (Very Serious pests on teak plantation)
Eutectona machaeralis
Biotechnology can be used to engineer plants that produce insecticidal proteins, such as Bt toxins, which are toxic to specific insect pests. By inserting these genes into the plant's genome, the plant becomes resistant to insect damage. This approach reduces the need for chemical pesticides, making it more environmentally friendly.
The orange dragonfly plays a significant role in the ecosystem by helping control insect populations. As predators, they feed on mosquitoes, flies, and other pests, helping to maintain a balance in the insect population. This contributes to the overall health and stability of the ecosystem by preventing overpopulation of certain insect species.

Tennessee has a diverse range of insects, including beetles, butterflies, and ants. The University of Tennessee Extension provides resources for insect identification, such as online guides and contact information for experts. Additionally, the Tennessee Department of Agriculture offers services for identifying and managing insect pests that may affect crops and gardens in the state.

The scientific name of Teak is Tectona grandis .
there are many useful trees such as dalbergia sisoo, tectona grandis,poplar, eucalyptus and plants such as acacia augustifolia.
I assume you meant Teak Wood? Which is a large deciduous tree (Tectona grandis), native to tropical South and Southeast Asia. It is noted for its dark, reddish-brown, and heavy timber.

Chemicals used by farmers to kill insect pests are called pesticides.
Teak (Tectona grandis) has several adaptations that enable it to thrive in tropical climates. Its thick, leathery leaves help reduce water loss, making it more drought-resistant. The tree's deep root system anchors it firmly in the soil, allowing it to access groundwater during dry periods. Additionally, teak's natural oils provide resistance to pests and decay, enhancing its durability and longevity.
