Methodology for assessing rice varieties for resistance to the lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica. [PDF]
Several physical and chemical attributes of rice were evaluated to determine which character would be best to use to assess multiple rice varieties for resistance to the lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.). Laboratory tests were conducted on single varieties of long-, short-, and medium grain-rice to develop procedures and methodologies that ...
