Abstract

Nature of resistance against the rice leaffolder, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis (Guenee) was studied in 16 rke varieties selected on the basis of greenhouse feeding test. Resistant varieties as a group were less preferred for feeding by the larvae in a free choice test lasting 10 days. Cut leaf assay with limited choice brought out subtle differences among some of the test varieties In larval settling response. Larval preference was correlated positively with the leaf area damage noted In feeding test, per cent pupation and leaf width, and negatively with trichome density. However, oviposltton preference was neither distinct nor correlated with resistance or leaf morphology. An antibiosis component in the test varieties ARC 11128, Balam, Gorsa, ARC 7064 and Ptb 19 was distinctly manifested as reduced larval survival, lower pupation rate and pupal weights in comparison with the susceptible check. When neonate larvae were reared on the meridic diets containing the leaves of the varieties Darukasail, Balam or Ptb 12, antibiotic effects were much more pronounced in comparison with the larvae reared on the diet containing the leaves of the susceptible check TN 1.

Résumé

La nature de la réesistance contre la chenille enrouleuse des feuilles, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis (Guenée) est étudiée sur 16 variétés de riz en conditions de serre. Les variétés résistantes constituent un groupe, étaient moins préferées pour l'alimentation par les larves en condition de libre choix sur une période de 10 jours. Des simulations portant sur la coupure des feullles avec un choix limitc apporte des differencessensibles entre les variétés dans l'etablissement de la larve. La preference larvaire était corrélée positivement avec la surface foliaire endommagée dans les tests d'alimentation, avec le pourcentage de pupaison et la largeur foliaire; elle est négativement correlee avec la densité des trichomes. Cependant, la preference pour l'oviposition n'était ni distincte ni correiée avec la resistance ou la môrphologie foliaire. Un composant d'antibiosis dans les varlétés testées, ARC 11128, Balam, Gorsa, ARC 7064 et Ptb 19, est distingue dans la reduction de la survie larvaire, la baisse de la pupaison et du poids des pupes, en comparaison avec des témoins. Les effets antibiotiqu esétaknt plus prononcés sur des larves néonates élevéessur des milieux artificiels abase des feuilles des variétés Darukasail, Balam et Pt b12 par rapport àcelles éle vées sur des milieux àbase de feulles de la variété sensible TNI.
