标题：EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT IRRIGATION LEVELS ON THE MEDITERRANEAN CORN BORER (SESAMIA NONAGRIOIDES LEFEBVRE), EUROPEAN CORN BORER (OSTRINIA NUBILALIS HUBNER) POPULATIONS AND EFFECTS OF PROLINE CONTENT IN CORN BORER PREFERENCES
摘要：In this study, the effects of different irrigation treatments (I_(100), І_(70), I_(35)) on the Mediterranean corn borer (Sesamia nonagrioiaes lefebvre) and on the European corn borer (Ostrinia nubilalis hübner) populations in different sweet corn (Zea mays sac- charataSturt) lines (1025x1026 ŞADA 13, MERİT, 1023X1024 ŞADA 12, 1028X1009, BATEM Tatli, 1012X1011 ŞADA 6) were investigated. As the average the greatest yield (8039.31 kg ha~(-1)), low number of live larva + pupa per plant (2.36), tunnel length (4.26 cm) were observed in I_(100) x BATEM Tatli interaction while the lowest yield (1917.00 kg ha~(-1)) values were observed in I_(35) x 1025x1026 ŞADA13 interaction. The largest Mediterranean corn borer and European corn borer population was observed in full irrigation (I_(100)) and the lowest population was observed in excessive water deficit (I_(35)) treatment. The Mediterranean corn borer and European corn borer preferred the 1025x1026 ŞADA 13 line. It was concluded that the lines should be tested under water-stressed and nonwater-stressed conditions for resistance to the Mediterranean corn borer, European corn borer and live larva, tunnel length and proline content could be used as a screening parameter.
