Incidence of parasitism and predation of yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertulas, eggs was monitored in transplanted and direct seeded rice during March, 1984, to February, 1985. Monthly planting using the two crop establishment techniques allowed comparison of egg parasitism and predation at 29, 70, and 91 days after seeding. Parasites which emerged from yellow stem borer eggs were Tetrastichus schoenobii Ferriere, Telenomus rowani (Gahar) and Trichogramma spp. The incidence of parasitism was higher at 29 days after seeding and decreased with crop age in both methods of crop establishment. Contrarily, there was a trend toward more egg mass predation as the crop aged, especially in direct seeded rice. In general, the incidence of parasitism was higher in transplanted rice.

Studies were conducted on the status of insect-pests and natural enemies of direct seeded rice (DSR) in comparison with puddled transplanted rice (PTR) during rabi and kharif in 2013-14. The rice leaf folder and yellow stem required both the seasons. Maximum leaf folder Cnaphalocrocis medinalis (Guenee) (13.03%) damage and yellow stem borer damage (13.49%) of white ears was recorded during last week of October and second week of November in DSR under unprotected situation respectively. While sucking pests population mainly green leafhopper incidence was comparatively high in PTR (3.29 and 4.92/hill) also plant hoppers incidence (BPH and WBPH) (28.90 and 18.44 adults/hill) under unprotected situation during two seasons respectively. Population of predators at both the season remained high throughout the study period in PTR than the DSR except

AbstractControl of yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker), in rice was attempted by mating disruption using the natural ratio of pheromone components, a 1:3 blend of (Z)-9- and (Z)-11-hexadecenal, in replicated trials at three locations in Andhra Pradesh, India, during the 1994 and 1995 dry seasons. The pheromone was formulated in SelibateR and applied by hand at a rate of 40 g a.i./ha. In Medchal and Nellore, pheromone-mediated communication was reduced by at least 94% for the first 50 and 64 days after application respectively, as measured by pheromone trap catch suppression. Compared with adjacent farmers' practice plots, subsequent dead heart and white head damage were reduced by 74 and 63% and 83 and 40% in Medchal and Nellore, respectively. In Medchal, average rice yields were increased compared to the farmers' practice plots, 4108 and 3835 kg/ha respectively, but in Nellore, they were the same as those obtained in the farmers' practice plots, 6400 and 6733 kg/ha respectively. In Warangal, the level of communication disruption over the first 70 nights after pheromone application was less than obtained in either Medchal or Nellore and averaged between 50 and 87%. The maximum dead heart and white head damage recorded in the pheromone-treated plots in Warangal were 2.8 and 15.7% respectively compared to 7.0 and 20.9% respectively in the farmers' practice plots. Differences in S. incertulas larval damage estimates obtained from the pheromone-treated and farmers' practice plots in Warangal were reflected in grain yields, 4036 and 3715 kg'ha respectively. Surveys of insecticide use indicated that 92% of smallholders in Medchal applied insecticide at least once per season while in Warangal over 60% applied insecticide on two or more occasions. The data show that season-long control of S. incertulas comparable to that obtained with conventional insecticides can be achieved by mating disruption in smallholder rice fields in India.

Natural Parasitism

Three species of parasitoids viz., Telenomus dignus Gahan, Trichogramma japonicum, Ishii and Tetrastichus schoenobii Ferriere were recorded from the egg masses of rice yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker) in a field study. The extent of parasitism was high during Rabi (43.33 – 93.33 %) and low during Kharif (0 - 40.00 %). Parasitism by T. dignus was maximum in October (50.00 %), T. japonicum, in November (23.08 %) and T. schoenobii in February (55.55 %). dignus and T. schoenobii in combination parasitized maximum number of egg masses (41.82 %). Multiple parasitism by the three species was high in December (8.33 %) and January (7.14%). Parasitic potential was maximum, when T. schoenobii alone parasitised the egg masses followed by T. dignus and T. schoenobii in combination. Host density in the field influenced the extent of parasitism.

Co2 Concentrations

An experiment was conducted at Research Farm, National Rice Research Institute, Cuttack, Odisha, India to quantify the effect of elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations on the biology and morphometric parameters of yellow stem borer (Scirpophaga incertulas, Pyralidae, Lepidoptera). Yellow stem borer is one of the major pest of rice in the whole rice growing regions of South East Asia. The effect of three carbon dioxide concentrations i.e. 410 ppm (ambient), 550 ppm and 700 ppm on the duration of the developmental period as well as morphometric parameters of each stage of the lifecycle of the pest was analysed. It was found that, there was an increase in the duration of the developmental period of each stage of life cycle as the concentration of CO2 increases. However, the life span of the adult moth was significantly lower under the elevated CO2 concentrations when compared with ambient CO2 concentration. Morphometric parameters viz., mean length, width and weight of each larval instar, pupa and adult were found to be significantly higher in elevated concentrations of CO2 as compared to ambient concentration.
