[Effect of rice variety resistance on population dynamics of Nilaparvata lugens and Sogatella furcifera].
The effect of rice varieties with different insect-resistance on dynamics of Nilaparvata lugens and Sogatella furcifera population was examined, based on the investigation of their inhabiting ratio, egg amount, survival rate of egg and nymph, nymph development, and the amount of their offspring population. Four rice varieties, TN1, N22, AsD7 and Ptb33 were investigated. Ptb33 had a significantly lower inhabiting ratio, egg amount, and survival ratio of eggs and nymphs of both parasitic populations, a prolonged development time from nymphs to adults, and an inhibited offspring population, indicating an evident resistance of this host variety. N22 and AsD7 inhibited the development of offspring S. furcifera and N. lugens, respectively. The parasitic populations of S. furcifera and N. lugens developed more rapidly on TN1, compared with N. lugens population on N22 and S. furcifera on AsD7. The relationship between the quantitative dynamics of both population and rice variety replacement was discussed, and the possibility of using resistant rice varieties to control these two insect populations was also analyzed.
