title: Mass Rearing Of Chilo Spp. On Artificial Diets And Its Use In Resistance Screening
ispublished: pub
subjects: s2.4
full_text_status: public
abstract: Several species of Chilo are serious pests of cereal crops. The important species
attacking cereals are Chilo agamemnon, C. orichalcociliellus and C. parrrllus on malze and
sorghum; C. auricilius and C. zacconius on sugar-cane, and rice; C. suppressalis on rice; and
C. sacchariphagus indicus on sugar-cane. Insects are reared In the laboratory on natural and
artificial diets for various purposes, namely for insecticide testing, hormone and pheromone
manipulation, biological control, host-plant resistance, etc. Rearing of an insect In the
laboratory requires rearing facilities, colony establishment, research and development of
rearing techhiques, resources, and maintenance of insect quality. All these aspects for rearing
major Chilo spp. have been discussed. However, detailed information is available only for C.
partellusand C.supprersalis. Techniques used for resistance screening anddamageevaluation
against spotted stem borer, C. partellus using naturally occurring populatlon and artificial
infestation are described.
