Abstract: |
【Objective】The resistance levels of 54 fresh corn varieties (hybrids) to fall armyworm (Spodoptera
frugiperda) were identified and evaluated with a purpose to provide references for resistance breeding.【Method】Leaf
and ear resistance of 54 fresh corn varieties hybrids was identified and evaluated in the spring and autumn of 2020 under
the natural condition of fall armyworm outbreak. The resistance of 54 fresh corn varieties (hybrids) to fall armyworm was
analyzed comprehensively based on the results of two seasons.【Result】The results showed that most of the leaves and
ears of fresh corn were susceptible or highly susceptible to fall armyworm , and there were no highly resistant or resistant
varieties (hybrids) . Only one hybrid Yuewucaitiannuo displayed medium resistance on both leaves and ears, accounting
for 1.85% of total hybrids. 14 hybrids such as Yuexiannuo 2, Yuebaitiannuo 5 and Yuetian 33 showed medium resistance on ears only, accounting 25.93% of all the hybrids.【Conclusion】Based on the preliminary identification results of the
leaves and ears of 54 fresh corn varieties, it was found that the resistant resources of fresh corn were relatively scarce, and
fall armyworm preferred leaves or ears from 54 hybrids differently. There was no significant difference in leaf resistance
among different sweet corn varieties, and certain degree of resistance existed in the ears of waxy corn or tropical derived
sweet corn, which could be used for insect resistance breeding. |
