Abstract
A plant’s ability to defend against herbivores, whitebacked planthoppe (WBPH; Sogatella furcifera), is influence by plant genetic, insect adaptation, and the environment. Evaluation of present resistant ability will provide valuable information for farmers and plant breeders. In this study, six Thai rice varieties along with resistant (Rathu Heenati) and susceptible (TN1) checks were used. The experiment was undertaken in a completely randomized design with 5 replications. WBPH population was collected from the Phitsanulok rice research center. Standard seed box screening techniques were followed to evaluate resistance to WBPH at the seedling stage by releasing the WBPH nymphs at the 2nd – 3rd instar at the rate of 10 insects per plant under glass house condition. Fitty-five and seventy-five days old plant were evaluated for resistance at tillering and flowering growth stages, respectively. At the tillering and flowering stages, WBPH nymphs at the 5th instar were released at the rate of 10 insects per plant. The results showed that there are significant differences among rice varieties in all growing stages. Among the tested varieties, none of the entries was observed as highly resistant at all growth stages after 14 days of WBWP released. All six varieties showed resistance to WBPH as moderately resistance to resistant levels at the flowering stage which is higher resistance than other growth stages.
