Effects of transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis maize grain on B. thuringiensis-susceptible Plodia interpunctella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae).
Percentage survivorship, developmental time, adult body length, and sex ratio of Plodia interpunctella (Hübner) reared on field-produced grain from sixteen cultivars of maize, Zea mays L., including several transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Berliner hybrids and selected non-Bt isolines, were evaluated under laboratory conditions. Compared with isolines, development was delayed and survivor...
متن کاملEvaluation of lectin-expressing transgenic sugarcane against stalkborers (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae): effects on life history parameters.
The impact of snowdrop lectin (Galanthus nivalis agglutinin, GNA) expressed in transgenic sugarcane on life history parameters of Mexican rice borer [Eoreuma loftini (Dyar)] and sugarcane borer [Diatraea saccharalis (F.)] (both Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) was evaluated. In the laboratory, lyophilized sugarcane leaf sheath tissue was incorporated in a meridic diet resulting in a GNA concentration of...
متن کاملNitrogen Fertilizer Application in Maize and Its Impact on the Development of Chilo partellus (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)
The current experiment was conducted to check the efficacy of different nitrogen doses on the bionomics of maize stem borer Chilo partellus (Lepidoptera: Pyrlidae) under laboratory and field conditions applied on three maize hybrids i.e., KK-8711, KWS-55 and KS-85. The results revealed that the body weight (mg) and frass weight (mg) of larvae positively correlated with nitrogen levels. There wa...
متن کاملAnalysis of Host Plant Resistance in Some Genotypes of Maize against Chilo Partellus (swinhoe) (pyralidae: Lepidoptera)
Twenty available genotypes of maize were screened for resistance to Chilo partellus in the field. The genotype Sahiwal 2002 was found to be most susceptible while DK-6525 was most resistant. Maximum infestation was observed at the end of April while the minimum in the last week of March. Significant variations were observed in all the plant characters viz., number of nodes per plant, plant heig...
متن کاملLife table studies of Elasmopalpus lignosellus (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) on sugarcane.
The lesser cornstalk borer, Elasmopalpus lignosellus (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) is an important pest of sugarcane (a complex hybrid of Saccharum spp.) in southern Florida. Reproductive and life table parameters for E. lignosellus were examined at nine constant temperatures from 13 to 36 °C with sugarcane as the larval food source. The pre- and postoviposition periods decreased with incre...
