Nine genotypes were evaluated under greenhouse conditions for antixenosis and tolerance against brown planthopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens Stal). In antixenosis studies, proportion of insects settled on a test genot...
Applied research on host-plant resistance to arthropod pests has been guided over the past 60 years by a framework originally developed by Reginald Painter in his 1951 book, Insect Resistance in Crop Plants. Painter d...

Four soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars with soybean aphid resistance (Aphis glycines Matsmura), p189, P203, P574, and P746, were identified in field test, choice test, and non-choice test, The grade of re...
During bean seed storage, yield can be lost due to infestations of Acanthoscelides obtectus Say, the bean weevil. The use of resistant varieties has shown promising results in fighting these insects, reducing infestat...
One hundred and thirty-eight rice accessions were screened for resistance to the small brown planthopper (SBPH) (Laodelphax striatellus Fallen) by the modified seedbox screening test. Twenty-five rice accessions w...
Susceptible and resistance wheat cultivars, Triticum aestivum L, were presented to two biotypes of Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis noxia (Mordvilko), in multiple choice tests to assay their relative acceptability as ...
