Abstract

Studies on developmental biology and feeding and ovipositional preferences of the pea leaf miner, Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau), were carried out on 11 varieties of field peas, Pisum sativum L. Two varieties, P-200 and P-402, offered maximum resistance to the development of pea leaf miner by inhibiting growth as both larval and puparial development were prolonged, and adult longevity, survival and fecundity reduced. These varieties were also least preferred for feeding and oviposition. Differences between the moderately resistant HFP-4 and highly susceptible varieties HFP-5, HFP-6, HFP-12, PG-3, RAU-21, RAU-25, RAU-37and T-163 were not well marked, as most of these had a relatively high value for the developmental success index, based on indices for larval-puparial development, adult longevity, survival and fecundity, and were also highly preferred by the ovipositing females. Variety PG-3, though offering some resistance to development, was highly preferred for oviposition. The local variety T-163, was the most susceptible variety, as it had the maximum value for the developmental success index, and was highly preferred by ovipositing females. The physiological basis of resistance in the two pea varieties is suggested to be mainly non-preference and antibiosis.

Résumé

Des études sur le développement biologique ainsi que sur les preférences alimentaires et de ponte de la mineuse du pois Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau) ont été effectuées sur onze variétés de pois des champs, Pisum sativum L. Deux variétes, P-200 et P-402, ont présenté un maximum de resistance à la mineuse, en inhibant la croissance de façon telle que les développements larvaires et pupaires ont été prolongés et la longévité, la survie et la fécondité des adultes réduites. Ces variétés ont aussi été les moins préférées pour l'alimentation et la ponte. Les différences entre la variété modérément résistante HFP-4 et les variétés fortement susceptibles HFP-5, HFP-6, HFP-12, PG-3, RAU-21, RAU-25, RAU-37 et T-163 n'étaient pas trés marquees puisque la plupart de celles-ci ont eu une valeur relativement forte pour l'indice de succè de développement, indice basé sur le développement larve-pupe ainsi que sur la longévité, la survie et la fécondité des adultes. De plus, ces variétés ont été fortement préférées par les femelles pondeuses. Bien que la variété PG-3 ait offert une certaine resistance au développement, elle a par contre été fortement préférée pour la ponte. La variété locale T-163 à été la variété la plus susceptible puisqu'elle a présenté la plus forte valeur pour l'indice de succès de développement et à été fortement préférée par les femelles pondeuses. II est suggéré que la base physiologique de la résistance pour les deux variétés de pois, est principalement la non-préferénce et l'antibiose.
