ENTOMONRice grains of 20 varieties were tested for their physical and biochemical basis of resistance against lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera, Bostrichidae). Physical parameters such as grain length x breadth, thousand seed weight, and grain hardness exhibited significant differences among tested varieties.
