| Abstract: | The rice bug Leptocoria acuta Thunb, was reared on the rice varieties Jaya, Jyothi, Triveni, Pavizham and Karthika in order to study the effect of varieties on the insect's biological features. Statistical analysis of the data obtained showed that varieties have no significant influence on the biological features of L. acuta. Studies made on the duration/survival of L. acuta on eleven common rice land weeds found in paddy fields showed that the bugscould complete their life cycle only on Echinoedria colonum and E. crusgalli. The bugs survived for short periods on a few of the otherweed hosts. |
