lARVAL DEVELOPMENT OF CHILO PARTELLUS SWINHOE IN ARTIACIAL DIET INCORPORATING DIFFERENT SORGHUM GENOTYPES
1International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology,
Nairobi, Kenya
ABSTRACT
A study was carried out to investigate the presence of antibiosis in some sorghum genotypes. First instarChilo partellus Swinhoe (Lepidoptera; Pyralidae) larvae were reared in artificial diets incorporating the different genotypes. HYD I and IS 1044 (check) slowed down 1arvaI development and caused larval mortality. Furtherrilore, significantly fewer eggs were laid by emerging female moths raised on these genotypes.
