Reaction of PRE01017-10-1-1-1 rice promising line to gall midge (GM) resistance was evaluated in green house nursery at Phrae Rice Research Center during 2007-201. It was found that this promising line showed resistance (R) to high resistance (HR) to GM which collected from 5 areas, i.e., Mae Hong Son, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Nan, and Phrae provinces. Furthermore, in 2012, the biotype of gall midge from 5 areas were studied and found that they were divided into two biotypes: 1) the gall midge collected from Mae Hong Son and Chiang Mai, which PRE01017-10-1-1-1 showed highly resistant (HR) score to GM, and 2) the gall midge collected from Chiang Rai, Nan and Phrae which PRE01017-10-1-1-1 showed resistant (R) score to GM. The mechanism of resistance in... |
