 Quick Bibliography SeriesBibliographies in the Quick Bibliography Series of the National
 Agricultural Library, are intended primarily for current
 awareness, and as the title of the series implies, are not
 indepth exhaustive bibliographies on any given subject.  However,
 the citations are a substantial resource for recent
 investigations on a given topic.  They also serve the purpose of
 bringing the literature of agriculture to the interested user who,
 in many cases, could not access it by any other means.  The
 bibliographies are derived from computerized on-line searches of
 the AGRICOLA data base.  Timeliness of topic and evidence of
 extensive interest are the selection criteria.
 
 The author/searcher determines the purpose, length, and search
 strategy of the Quick Bibliography.  Information regarding
 these is available upon request from the author/searcher.
 
 Copies of this bibliography may be made or used for
 distribution without prior approval.  The inclusion or
 omission of a particular publication or citation may not be
 construed as endorsement or disapproval.

 Abstract:  The effects of a tri-trophic level (grain sorghum-
 greenbug-coccinellid) interaction were examined in the laboratory
 using greenhouse-grown plants. Two resistant sorghum, Sorghum
 bicolor (L.) Moench, hybrids, Dekalb DK-41Y and DK-59E, which
 exhibit antibiosis to greenbugs, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani),
 were tested along with a greenbug-susceptible hybrid, Horizon 101G.
 Single egg clusters from Hippodamia convergens Guerin females were
 randomly separated at hatching into two groups. Each group was fed
 greenbugs from either a resistant or susceptible grain sorghum
 hybrid. Plant antibiosis reduced larval-pupal survival and
 increased the amount of time from egg eclosion to pupation in
 coccinellids that fed on greenbugs from both of the resistant
 hybrids compared with the susceptible hybrid. Survival to adulthood
 was 82.9% in the 101G-susceptible treatment and 62.1% for larvae
 fed greenbugs from resistant KD-41Y. Survival was 91.6% in the
 susceptible 101G treatment and 86.5% in the resistant DK-59E
 treatment. Resistant sorghum hybrid DK-59E had a significant
 treatment-by-sex interaction effect on coccinellid adult weights,
 with females that consumed greenbugs from the resistant hybrid
 weighing less, whereas males weighed more when compared with the
 respective sexes feeding on greenbugs from the susceptible sorghum
 hybrid.

 Abstract:  Laboratory tests demonstrated that 'Repell,' a
 cultivar of perennial ryegrass, Lolium perenne L., infected with
 the fungal endophyte, Acremonium lolii Latch, Christensen &
 Samuels, exhibited a high level of insect resistance to the hairy
 chinch bug, Blissus leucopterus hirtus Montandon. First and third
 instars and adult hairy chinch bugs reared on endophyte-infected
 plants had significantly lower survival. On endophyte-free
 'Repell,' nymphs and adults resided primarily on the leaf sheath.
 In contrast, on endophyte-infected 'Repell,' nymphs and adults
 either avoided the plant or resided only on the endophyte-free leaf
 blade. Nymphs were able to detect the presence of the
 endophyte in a choice test and consistently selected endophyte-free
 'Repell.' These results support field observations of
 resistance in association with endophyte-infected ryegrass and
 suggest that the incorporation of endophytes into ryegrass will
 lead to significant reductions in hairy chinch bug infestations.

 Abstract:  Oviposition resistance-nonpreference of boll weevils,
 Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman, was measured on day-neutral
 (flowering response not sensitive to day-length) lines of
 primitive cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L. Six of nine lines
 (T-109DN, T-277-2-6DN, T-330DN, T-759DN, T-763DN, and T-790DN) had
 significantly less boll weevil oviposition and significantly fewer
 boll weevil-damaged squares than the susceptible checks,
 'Stoneville 213,' and 'Deltapine 41,' or 'Deltapine 61' in both
 laboratory and field tests. The level of field resistance in these
 primitive cottons approximated that of the frego-
 nectariless resistant check, La.81-560FN. These primitive day-
 neutral-derived lines represent an important level and a
 previously unexploited source of resistance that can be used
 readily for germplasm enhancement of upland cotton. Their
 resistance was not attributed to any morphological trait.

 Abstract:  The agronomic performance of two maize (Zea mays L.)
 synthetics, BSAA and BSBB, was investigated following four cycles
 of S1 recurrent selection for resistance to first-generation
 European corn borer (Ostrinia nubilalis Hubner) (ECB) and
 Diplodia (Diplodia maydis (Berk.) Sacc.) stalk rot (DSR). The
 original and four improved cycle populations (C0-C4), their crosses
 to a single-cross tester, crosses between synthetics, and three
 single-cross checks were evaluated in five Iowa
 environments. Artificial infestations of ECB and inoculations of D.
 maydis were used to assess the ability of genetic resistance to
 reduce yield losses. Highly significant grain yield reductions were
 observed in both synthetics per se and averaged 20% from the C0 to
 the C4 in the absence of disease or insects pressure. Ear length
 was the main component contributing to grain yield
 reductions. Changes toward earlier pollen date were closely
 associated with reductions in plant height observed in both
 synthetics. The level of resistance achieved in the improved
 populations of BSBB was sufficient to prevent grain yield losses
 caused by ECB infestations and D. maydis inoculations relative to
 a control treatment. Additional genetic studies suggested that the
 response of most of the agronomic traits evaluated was
 associated with allelic frequency changes resulting from
 selection. Inbreeding depression caused by random genetic drift
 played a small role in most traits, with the exception of grain
 yield in BSBB.

 Abstract:  Both the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E.
 Smith), and the southwestern corn borer, Diatraea grandiosella
 Dyar, feed extensively on the leaves of corn, Zea mays L., in the
 southern USA. Their feeding can cause serious yield reductions.
 Several germplasm lines with resistance to leaf feeding by these
 two insect pests have been developed and released; however, only
 limited information is available on the inheritance of this
 resistance. No previous information on the relationships between
 resistance to fall armyworm and southwestern corn borer has been
 reported. The current investigation was undertaken to obtain
 information on the relative importance of general and specific
 combining ability in the inheritance of resistance to fall
 armyworms and southwestern corn borers and to compare the
 responses of the two insects to a diallel cross among inbred lines
 with varying degrees of resistance. Larval survival and growth were
 used to quantify levels of resistance. General
 combining ability was a highly significant source of variation
 among hybrids, but specific combining ability was a
 nonsignificant source of variation. Fall armyworm larval survival
 and weight on hybrids with varying levels of resistance were highly
 correlated with southwestern corn borer survival and weight on the
 same hybrids. This suggests that selecting for resistance to one of
 these insects should increase resistance to both.

 Abstract:  A study was conducted to investigate the effects of
 different cultural conditions on the quality of bermudagrass,
 Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers., and its effect on the development and
 survival of the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith).
 Fall armyworm larvae were fed four bermudagrass lines, 'Coastal',
 'Grazer,' 'Tifton 292,' and OSU 71 x 6-7, grown under field and
 greenhouse conditions. Grasses grown in the field were less
 favorable for fall armyworm development and survival than the same
 lines grown in the greenhouse. Larvae fed bermudagrasses grown in
 the greenhouse had significantly higher larval and pupal weights
 and decreased duration for larval development. The
 quality of field-grown grasses, as indicated by crude protein,
 neutral detergent fiber, and in vitro digestible dry matter, was
 lower and declined more from June to September than the same
 grasses grown in the greenhouse. Larvae fed either greenhouse- or
 field-grown 'Grazer' generally developed faster than larvae reared
 on the other bermudagrass lines we evaluated. 'Tifton 292' appeared
 resistant to fall armyworm when grown under greenhouse but did not
 always differ significantly from the susceptible line, 'Grazer,'
 when grown under field conditions. Greenhouse screening of
 bermudagrass for fall armyworm resistance should be confirmed with
 field evaluations.

 Abstract:  The wheat curl mite (Eriophyes [Aceria] tulipae
 Keifer) is the vector of wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV), which
 incites wheat streak mosaic (WSM), a disease that causes serious
 yield losses in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell.).
 Several sources of resistance to mite colonization have been
 identified. Our objective was to determine the relative
 effectiveness of four sources of mite resistance in controlling the
 spread of WSMV. A series of controlled environmental tests showed
 that the incidence of WSMV tended to be lowest in
 'Rescue'-Agropyron elongatum (Host) P. Beauv. chromosome
 substitution, addition, or translocation lines involving
 Chromosome 6 from A. elongatum. Disease incidence was
 significantly lower in the wheat-rye (Secale cereale L.)
 translocation line KS80H4200 and in the 'Norstar'-Aegilops
 squarrosa L. backcross line NST 4/CMC1 than in the mite-
 susceptible wheat cultivars Norstar and Rescue. The incidence of
 WSM was usually higher in the cultivar TAM 107, which carries a
 wheat-rye translocation, than in other mite-resistant entries and
 was not always significantly different from the mite-susceptible
 winter wheat Norstar, even though TAM 107 reduced the incidence of
 symptoms of mite feeding. All entries tested were highly
 susceptible to WSMV when mechanically inoculated. In the field,
 following a light natural infestation of the wheat curl mite, lines
 from the cross NST 4/CMC1 contained 40% fewer WSMV-infected plants
 than lines without mite resistance. This study
 demonstrated that the mite resistance derived from A. elongatum was
 more effective in limiting the spread of WSM than was mite
 resistance originating from either rye or Ae. squarrosa.

 Abstract:  The suitability of oilseed rapes, Brassica spp., and
 alfalfa, Medicago sativa L., as host plants for Lygus spp. is
 compared. Lygus bugs were monitored in field plots of five
 cultivars of oilseed rape, Brassica napus L. and Brassica
 campestris L., containing high or low levels of glucosinolates. The
 number of lygus collected did not differ among cultivars of the
 same species. Nymphs reared in the laboratory on the five cultivars
 had the same survival and developmental rate regardless of the
 glucosinolate status of the cultivar. Survival,
 development, and growth were compared for nymphs reared on
 excised stem tips of oilseed rape and alfalfa that had flower buds
 or flowers. Nymphs developed faster and had higher survival when
 reared on oilseed rape than when reared on alfalfa. However, the
 dry weights of adults collected from an alfalfa field were
 significantly higher than those reared on alfalfa in the
 laboratory, indicating that excised alfalfa may not be as good a
 source of food for conducting laboratory tests as excised oilseed
 rape. Adult weights of field-collected lygus bugs from alfalfa and
 oilseed rape did not differ significantly. The results
 demonstrate that oilseed rapes with high or low levels of
 glucosinolates are both suitable hosts for the three species of
 lygus, and as suitable as alfalfa. Furthermore, the change from the
 older high-glucosinolate rape cultivars to the low-
 glucosinolate cultivars that are now widely grown probably had no
 effect on the suitability of the crop for lygus bugs.

 Abstract:  Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of
 Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), larval feeding on one
 susceptible and two resistant wheat, Triticum aestivum L. em
 Thell., cultivars. The stem number, plant and crown weights, and
 soluble crown carbohydrates were measured in susceptible 'Monon'
 (with the H3 gene) and resistant 'Abe' (H3 gene) and 'Caldwell' (H6
 gene) wheat infested with biotype E Hessian fly larvae. All plant
 variables were significantly different between infested and control
 'Monon' wheat, and no significant difference in plant variables was
 detected in the resistant wheats 4 wk after
 infestation. Of the four carbohydrates analyzed, only fructan in
 'Monon,' and fructose in 'Abe' differed significantly between the
 two treatments. These data support the use of resistant genes in
 plants to control the Hessian fly, in that essentially no damage
 was observed in the resistant wheat, whereas susceptible 'Monon'
 was damaged severely.

 Abstract:  Indoleacetic acid applied to root pieces of grade
 cultivars resistant and susceptible to grape phylloxera,
 Daktulosphaira vitifoliae Fitch, induced production of swellings
 and rootlet branches. Effects increased with concentration of
 indoleacetic acid. Root sensitivity to indoleacetic acid was not
 greater in susceptible cultivars and does not appear to be a prime
 mechanism of the host plant resistance to grape phylloxera.
 Phylloxera did not preferentially establish on swellings induced by
 indoleacetic acid, but did on preformed grape phylloxera
 tuberosities. Thus, swellings caused by indoleacetic acid are not
 identical to grape phylloxera tuberosities.

 lines, PI 262660, PI 137739, and PI 294994, to Diuraphis noxia
 (Mordvilko), a serious pest of wheat in South Africa. Nymphal
 production was lowest on PI 262660, followed by PI 137739 and PI
 294994. The mean production of nymphs per adult aphid over 21 d on
 PI 262660, PI 137739, and PI 294994 was, respectively, 40.0, 55.1,
 and 66.9% of that on the susceptible cv. Betta. In the tolerance
 test, the plant height and dry mass of PI 262660 were significantly
 less affected than other entries. PI 137739 and PI 294994 were as
 severely affected as the susceptible entries.

 Abstract:  A collection of 524 barley lines from areas of the world
 where the Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis noxia (Mordvilko) and
 barley, Hordeum vulgare L., have coexisted was evaluated for
 sympatric resistance to this pest. Mass screening tests were
 conducted in a growth chamber and greenhouse with seedlings planted
 in flats. Additional tests to determine the mechanisms of
 resistance were performed with nine of these lines. The lines and
 their sources are PI 366444, PI 366447, PI 366449, PI 366450, PI
 366453 (Afghanistan); CI 1412, PI 4.30140, PI 430142 (Iran); and PI
 447219 (Spain). Various levels of antibiosis and tolerance were
 exhibited in most of the lines tested in comparison with
 'Wintermalt' (CI 15767), the susceptible control. For example, in
 the antibiosis test, an average of 27.3 nymphs per adult were
 produced on PI 366449 compared with 50.0 on 'Wintermalt'. In the
 tolerance test, plant growth and leaf area of some of the
 resistant entries were not affected by the Russian wheat aphid,
 whereas growth and leaf area of infested 'Wintermalt' plants was
 only 61% of noninfested 'Wintermalt' plants. Plant survivors of
 these tests have been saved for developing Russian wheat aphid
 plant-resistant germplasm for the North American barley industry.

 Abstract:  Four soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) germplasm lines
 resistant to Mexican bean beetle, Epilachna varivestis Mulsant,
 were developed and released. These lines, 'HC83-123-9,'
 'HC83-46-1,' HC83-46-2,' and 'HC83-50-1,' are from the cross
 'Pixie' x 'PI 229358' and carry resistance (antibiosis) levels
 nearly equal to the resistant parent, 'PI 229358.' They were
 developed by the pedigree breeding procedure, using a systematic
 laboratory bioassay with Mexican bean beetle larvae to identify
 resistant plants in each generation. Survival and development of
 Mexican bean beetle larvae on these lines were similar to that on
 'PI 229358.' Larval mortality for each line was 97.3, 90.7, 90.0,
 and 84.0%, respectively, compared with 27.2 and 98.0% for 'Pixie'
 (a susceptible control) and 'PI 229358,' respectively. More than
 half the larval mortality occurred during the first and second
 stadia. These lines also showed resistance to another soybean
 defoliator; field screening against defoliation by Japanese beetle,
 Popillia japonica Newman, confirmed the high levels of resistance
 of these four lines, with defoliation ratings less than or equal to
 2 for all four lines compared with the
 susceptible cultivar, 'Pixie,' which had a rating of 5 (scale 0-5).
 The resistant lines are determinate plant types of mid-to-late
 group IV maturity. Because of their earlier maturity
 (compared with the PIs) and high level of resistance
 (antibiosis), these lines should be a useful source of resistance
 for the development of high-yielding soybean cultivars with
 resistance to the Mexican bean beetle and other soybean
 defoliator.

 Abstract:  The greenbug [Schizaphis graminum (Rondani)] has been
 recognized as a major insect pest of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.)
 Moench] in the Great Plains of the USA since 1968. Biotype E has
 been prominent since 1980 and twelve sources of resistance within
 the Sorghum genus have been identified. The objective of this study
 was to investigate the inheritance of resistance in sorghum among
 seven sources of resistance and three susceptible lines for
 antibiosis and tolerance involving Biotype E. A
 complete diallel mating, including reciprocals, of the ten
 resistant and susceptible lines of sorghum was evaluated in the
 growth chamber to estimate heterosis, general combining ability
 (GCA), specific combining ability (SCA), maternal and specific
 reciprocal effects for seedling antibiosis, and tolerance to
 greenbug Biotype E. The majority of crosses between the resistant
 sources and susceptible lines showed intermediate reactions and
 various degrees of partial dominance for both antibiosis and
 tolerance, suggesting polygenic inheritance. Combining ability
 analyses revealed that GCA, SCA, maternal, and specific
 reciprocal effects were significant for both seedling antibiosis
 and tolerance, but GCA was clearly more important in determining
 tolerance. The most antibiotic parent, IS2388, had the largest GCA
 effect for antibiosis while the most tolerant parent PI 229828, had
 the largest GCA effect for tolerance. The significant maternal and
 specific reciprocal differences found among parents and crosses,
 respectively, suggested that the variation observed in this
 experiment was due not only to direct genetic effects, but also to
 maternal and/or cytoplasmic inheritance and specific interactions
 of cytoplasmic and genetic factors.

 Abstract:  There are no standardized procedures for evaluation of
 host-plant resistance of small grains to Russian wheat aphid (RWA),
 (Mordvilko), Diuraphis noxia. Research results, therefore, often
 are ambiguous. One possible source of ambiguity is the host
 genotype on which aphids are reared prior to being used on test
 plants. In this study, two collections of RWA were cultured
 separately on TX78V2290-36-1 wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell),
 TXGH10989 wheat, 'Nora' oat (Avena sativa L.) and
 'Eronga' triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack). After a 30-d period
 on the culture plants, the aphids were removed and placed on tester
 plants to determine whether the host-plant genotype used for colony
 maintenance affected aphid performance on
 testers. The tester plants were the same as those used for colony
 maintenance. Aphids were placed on testers from source plants in
 all possible combinations and aphid response to tester genotypes
 was determined by counting the number of embryos produced per
 aphid. Results showed that the source genotype had a significant
 effect on subsequent performance of aphids. The TX78V2290-36-1
 wheat provided the best overall rearing environment of the
 genotypes tested. Aphids originally maintained on TX78V2290-36-1
 successfully discriminated wheat from oat and oat from triticale,
 as well as distinguishing the different levels of resistance of the
 two wheat genotypes.

 Abstract:  Four cycles of recurrent selection were used to reduce
 leaf-feeding damage caused by first-generation European corn borer
 (ECB), Ostrinia nubilalis Hubner, and pith decay associated with
 Diplodia, Diplodia maydis (Berkeley) Saccardo, stalk rot (DSR) in
 two maize, Zea mays L., synthetics, BSAA and BSBB. Recurrent
 selection was based on the evaluation of S(1)
 progenies. For this study, 100 unselected S(1) lines from each of
 the original (CO) and improved (C4) populations of BSAA and BSBB
 were evaluated for ECB resistance, DSR resistance, and stalk rind
 puncture. The distributions of S(1) lines for the three traits and
 the genetic relationships among traits were evaluated to determine
 the effectiveness of the recurrent selection programs. The C4s of
 both synthetics were more resistant than the COs to ECB leaf
 feeding after artificial infestations, were more
 resistant to DSR after artificial inoculations, and possessed
 harder stalks. The differences between the CO and C4 means were
 highly significant (P less than 0.01) in all instances.
 Reductions in genetic variation were observed in BSAA for ECB
 ratings and in BSBB for all three traits. The reductions in genetic
 variation were especially dramatic for ECB ratings, indicating that
 relatively few gene pairs were segregating for leaf-feeding
 resistance in BSAA and BSBB. Low and generally nonsignificnant
 correlations between DSR ratings and rind
 puncture readings indicated that selection for both traits would be
 justified to improve field stalk lodging resistance.

 Abstract:  We make an attempt to identify the agricultural and
 ecological factors of greatest importance in assessing the
 applicability of different modalities (antibiosis, antixenosis,
 tolerance) and levels of insect resistance to the pest management
 requirements of different crops and cropping systems. Emphasis is
 placed on the importance of matching the type and level of
 resistance to the pest's biology (e.g., feeding habits,
 development on the crop, alternate host, patterns of invasion of
 the crop, number of generations passed in the crop) and the
 production requirements of the crop. We illustrate how, depending
 on context, the use of a particular modality and level of
 resistance may simplify pest management, reduce crop losses without
 simplifying pest management, or by changing a pest whose occurrence
 in damaging populations is highly predictable to one whose
 occurrence is irregular and unpredictable, complicate pest
 management. The HELSIM Heliothis zea population dynamics model is
 used to illustrate how simulation models can be used to explore the
 consequences of deploying particular modalities and levels of
 insect resistance. In exploring genetic considerations in the use
 of insect-resistant germplasm, we focus on the problem of
 maximizing the durability of insect resistance by minimizing
 selection for virulent biotypes. We examine whether some
 modalities of resistance are inherently more stable than others
 regarding selection of virulent biotypes, and argue that in judging
 the inherent durability of a particular resistance, exclusive focus
 on the genetic nature of the plant resistance is inadequate.
 Knowledge of the genetic variability of the target pest vis a vis
 the plant resistance and an understanding of the direct biological
 effects of the resistance on the insect are also essential. The
 selection pressure for virulent insect
 biotypes exerted by resistant crop cultivars is shown to be
 dependent upon the modality of resistance as well as the
 agricultural and ecol

 Abstract:  Soybean foliage from susceptible ('Bragg') and
 resistant (PI 229358 and D75-10169) lines was extracted in
 several nonpolar and polar organic solvents to assess
 constitutive (mite-free) and induced (mite-damaged) activity
 against nonpest and pest noctuid caterpillars. The benzene
 fraction, incorporated in artificial diet, contained most of the
 constitutive activity of both the resistant and susceptible lines,
 as indicated by reduced relative growth rate (RGR) of velvetbean
 caterpillar, Anticarsia gemmatalis Hubner; corn
 earworm, Helicoverpa (= Heliothis) zea (Boddie); tobacco budworm,
 H. virescens (F.); and fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E.
 Smith) compared with larvae fed the extract- and solvent-free
 control diet. Induced activity from mite-damaged greenhouse-grown
 plants and A. gemmatalis-damaged field-grown plants was detected
 primarily in the petroleum ether fraction. Among the species tested
 on the induced fractions (A. gemmatalis, S. frugiperda, and the
 cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni (Hubner)), S. frugiperda was the
 most sensitive species, as demonstrated by reduced RGR. Overall,
 among the species (H. zea, H. virescens, and T. ni) more tolerant
 of the soybean foliage fractions, only H. zea is a major soybean
 foliage pest. Surprisingly, among the two most sensitive species,
 A. gemmatalis is a legume specialist and major soybean pest,
 whereas S. frugiperda is a polyphagous species but not a soybean
 pest. These results suggest that presumed soybean-adapted species
 may not be more resistant than soybean-naive species to the
 deleterious effects of soybean foliage extracts.

 Abstract:  Economic loss caused by the European corn borer,
 Ostrinia nubilalis (Hubner), amounts to millions of dollars per
 year. Maize breeding programs funded from public and private
 sources have developed and released germplasm with resistance to
 European corn borer whorl leaf feeding and, to a lesser extent,
 sheath and sheath collar feeding during flowering. A 4-yr study of
 100 hybrids each year was undertaken to evaluate levels of
 resistance to European corn borer available to the farmer in
 commercial hybrids. About 90% of the maize hybrids evaluated have
 some resistance to whorl leaf feeding and about 75% have some
 resistance to sheath and sheath collar feeding. In approximately
 two-thirds of the hybrids evaluated in Missouri, the resistance
 levels could be further enhanced and susceptible hybrids improved
 with the introduction of additional genes for resistance.

 Abstract:  Biotypes of Hessian flies, Mayetiola destructor (Say),
 collected from wheat, Triticum aestivum (L.), in four North Central
 Texas locations were determined in 1986 and 1987. During 1986 the
 Great Plains A and C biotypes were found to be most prevalent in
 Hessian fly populations, whereas in 1987 the A, C, and F biotypes
 were most common. Results from biotype experiments and infestation
 ratings of wheat lines from the Uniform Hessian Fly Nursery in
 1986-1988 indicated that while all genes for Hessian fly resistance
 provided protection from infestation, the H6, H7H8, and H12 genes
 were the least effective for use in Texas.

 Abstract:  Susceptible 'Newton' and resistant 'Abe' winter wheat
 (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell.) were infested with larvae of
 biotype E Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say). Plants and
 crowns of infested 'Newton' weighed less, were shorter, had fewer
 tillers, and had significantly less soluble carbohydrates than the
 control plants. Only the plant height of infested resistant 'Abe'
 was significantly reduced. This finding was unexpected because,
 avirulent larvae have never been shown to affect the growth of a
 resistant host. In 'Newton,' only the quantity of sucrose differed
 between treatments, being significantly greater in the infested
 than the control plants, although there was a trend for the control
 plants to have more fructan and less
 sucrose, glucose, and fructose than the treated plants. No
 differences were noted in soluble carbohydrates between infested
 and control 'Abe.' Ancymidol, a plant growth retardant, stunted
 both wheat cultivars but did not alter resistance in 'Abe.'
 Gibberellic acid (GA3) reversed ancymidol-induced growth
 inhibition but did not reverse Hessian fly stunting in 'Newton.'
 Therefore, stunting of wheat by the Hessian fly and ancymidol
 treatments appear to involve different biochemical pathways.

 Abstract:  Results of a laboratory study show that even low levels
 of resistant maize, Zea mays L., silks reduced corn
 earworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie), growth and extended the life cycle
 by about 3 d. An intermediate level of resistance in maize silks
 reduced corn earworm growth, extended developmental time by about
 8 d per generation, and subsequently reduced egg production by
 approximately 30%. A high level of resistance in maize silks
 reduced corn earworm growth, extended the life cycle by about 20 d,
 and reduced egg production by about 65% per generation. In addition
 to these parameters, if corn earworm attacked maize each
 generation, the intermediate level of this type of resistance would
 eliminate about two generations per year and the high level of
 resistance 40-50% of the generations per year. Thus, if hybrid
 maize can be developed with intermediate to high levels of
 resistance to corn earworm, then populations that usually
 devastate alternate crops can be dramatically reduced while
 reducing pesticide use by growers.

 Abstract:  Effects of interactions among temperature (20, 25, and
 30 degrees C), known resistant and susceptible corn genotypes
 ('Zapalote Chico' and 'Stowell's Evergreen'), and concentrations of
 corn silk material-pinto bean diet mixture (0 and 18.75, 37.5 and
 67.0 mg) on corn earworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie), growth ad
 developmental parameters were evaluated. Parameters measured were:
 9-d larval weights, developmental time of larvae, weight of pupae,
 and days to adult eclosion. Corn earworm growth was
 slowest at 20 degrees C and fastest at 30 degrees C. Significant (P
 less than 0.05) differences caused by the resistant 'Zapalote
 Chico' compared with the susceptible 'Stowell's Evergreen' were
 measured consistently at 25 degrees C for all four developmental
 parameters. The median temperature (25 degrees C) appears to be
 optimun for detecting growth differences between resistant and
 susecptible plant materials regardless of silk concentration.

 Abstract:  Prey feeding on resistant versus susceptible corn
 genotypes was investigated for its effect on predation by Orius
 insidiosus (Say). Fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E.
 Smith), that fed on fresh foliage of the resistant corn genotype
 'MpSWCB-4' suffered significantly higher rates of predation by
 adult O. insidiosus (Say) than did armyworm fed 'Cacahuacintle,' a
 susceptible genotype. Similar results were obtained when corn
 earworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie), were fed a meridic diet
 containing silks from 'Zapalote Chico' compared with a diet without
 silks. A type II functional response was exhibited by O. insidiosus
 preying on fall armyworm but not on corn earworm. Feeding by corn
 earworm on meridic diets that contained resistant silks increased
 the age of the prey that were susceptible to attack by the
 predator.

 Abstract:  Feeding activities of herbivorous insects are
 influenced by host plant nutritional quality. Improved insect
 resistance resulting from either natural or artificial selection
 may be due, in part, to changes in nutritive constituents of
 plants. The first objective of this study was to measure changes in
 detergent fiber, lignin, ash, and N concentrations in whorls, leaf-
 sheaths, and stalks of the BS9 maize (Zea mays L.)
 population across five cycles of selection for resistance to the
 European corn borer (ECB) [Ostrinia nubilalis (Hubner)]. The second
 objective was to evaluate ECB resistance in the WFISIHI and WFISILO
 maize populations, which were developed for high and low
 concentrations, respectively, of indigestible plant
 constituents (acid detergent fiber, lignin, and silica) in the leaf
 sheath. Leaf-sheath composition for all five cycles of BS9 was
 measured in three environments in Iowa. Whorl, leaf-sheath and
 stalk composition, as well as first-and second-generation ECB
 resistance of populations WFISIHI, WFISILO and Cycles 0, 2, 4, and
 5 of BS9 were evaluated in two environments in Wisconsin. Whorl
 composition was not related to changes in ECB resistance in any
 population. In BS9, leaf-sheath and stalk concentrations of neutral
 and acid detergent fiber, cellulose, and lignin increased linearly
 over selection cycles. In contrast, WFISIHI was as susceptible to
 second-generation ECB as WFISILO, suggesting that the responses in
 BS9 may be due to linkage or unintentional selection. Populations
 BS9, WFISIHI, and WFISILO, however, were derived from diverse
 sources, and it is likely that mechanisms for resistance differ for
 the three populations.

 Abstract:  Discovery that popcorn (Zea mays L.) PI 340856 was
 resistant to corn earworm (Heliothis zea (Boddie)) led us to
 evaluate 34 additional lines developed by J.C. Eldredge for
 resistance to corn earworm, European corn borer (Ostrinia
 nubilalis (Hubner)), and fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J.E.
 Smith). The 35 lines were evaluated for corn earworm
 resistance in the field with artificial infestation at Ames, Iowa,
 and Tifton, Ga., and with natural infestation at Hermiston, Oreg.
 None of the lines was better than the resistant check, 'Zapalote
 Chico' (PI 217413), at any of the three locations. Several lines
 had significantly better damage ratings than the susceptible
 checks. A bioassay of these materials for corn
 earworm resistance was run in the laboratory at Ames and Tifton by
 adding dried maize silks to laboratory diets and monitoring insect
 growth and development. Six lines were evaluated as
 resistant at both locations. In the field at Ames, two of these six
 lines were rated resistant to European corn borer. Fall armyworm
 field resistance ratings at Tifton indicated that one line was
 resistant after 7 d, but it was intermediate after 14 d. The J.C.
 Eldredge collection of popcorns provides sources of antibiosis to
 corn earworm and European corn borer and is
 available for use by plant breeders. Corn earworm resistance may be
 enhanced by breeding for husk protection, which may provide an
 environment that will capitalize on the antibiotic factors found in

 Abstract:  Open-pedigree corn (Zea mays L.) inbred lines with
 tropical (38 lines), subtropical (55 lines), and temperature (27
 lines) origins were evaluated for resistance to second-generation
 European corn borer. Ostrinia nubilalis Hubner. Five plants in each
 plot were infested during anthesis with 10 applications of 50
 larvae or 500 per plant. Relative ratings for resistance were taken
 50-60 d after anthesis based on a nine-point rating scale (1, no
 sheath collar feeding damage to 9, severe damage).
 Differences among mean resistant ratings of the 120 lines were
 significant; higher resistance was associated with lines having
 tropical and subtropical germplasm. Twenty-two lines had
 resistance ratings less than 3.5, and most included either
 tropical or subtropical germplasm. Resistant ratings were
 correlated significantly with days to anthesis and silking and
 plant and ear height. Transfer of the resistant genes from the
 tropical germplasm to temperate germplasm should be done with
 caution because of their sensitivity to photoperiodism.

 Abstract:  ELS 6404-160, CI 17647, a durum wheat (Triticum durum
 Desf.) introduction from Ethiopia, was found resistant to several
 biotypes of Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)]. Additional
 genes for resistance are needed for breeding wheat for resistance
 to the Hessian fly. Research was conducted on a random plant
 (designated as Selection 5) of ELS 6404-160. Our objectives were to
 determine (i) the number of genes in ELS 6404-160-5
 controlling resistance to biotypes B and D, (ii) if the gene(s) are
 different from known genes effective against biotypes B, D, and L,
 (iii) the pattern of resistance of ELS 6404-160-5 to biotypes
 B,C,D, and L, and (iv) the effectiveness of the
 resistance at three temperature regimes. Test cross progeny and F3
 line analyses, conducted in greenhouses or growth chambers,
 indicated that ELS 6404-160-5 has two genes for resistance which
 are different from other genes known to provide resistance to
 biotypes D and L. Segregation of test cross progeny rows in a three
 segregating to one susceptible ratio following the test cross of
 ELS 6404-160-5 with susceptible D6647 indicated that resistance was
 governed by two genes. The occurrence of
 susceptible test cross progenies in test crosses following
 crosses of ELS 6404-160-5 with genotypes with known genes for
 resistance to biotype D indicated that the genes in ELS
 6404-160-5 were different than those previously described. ELS
 6404-160-5 is resistant to biotypes B, C, D, and L and resistance
 is quite stable to biotype D at three temperatures. The genes from
 ELS 6404-160-5 are designated H14 and H15. Gene H15 is closely
 associated with H9 on chromosome 5A; H14 may be linked to or
 independent of H10, which is on chromosome 5A.
