Soybean genotypes H<sub>11</sub>L<sub>145</sub>, H<sub>155</sub>, H<sub>113</sub>, H<sub>4</sub>L<sub>4</sub>, H<sub>15</sub>L<sub>17</sub>, H<sub>129</sub>, H<sub>30</sub>, H<sub>19</sub>L<sub>96</sub>, Giza 111, and Crawford were distributed in randomized complete blocks design with three replications. Soybean genotypes differed significantly for cotton leafworm at the 6<sup>th</sup>, 7<sup>th</sup>, and 8<sup>th</sup> week from sowing. Low values of cotton leafworm assemblages were recorded for H<sub>113</sub>, H<sub>4</sub>L<sub>4</sub>, H<sub>15</sub>L<sub>17</sub>, Giza 111, and H<sub>129</sub>. Low percentages of the larval survival number and weight, as well as the number of the survival of pupa were recorded by feeding on leaves of genotypes H<sub>4</sub>F<sub>4</sub>, H<sub>15</sub>L<sub>17</sub>, and Giza 111 under laboratory conditions. There were significant differences among the studied genotypes in most yield attributes in both seasons. Soybean genotypes H<sub>15</sub>L<sub>17</sub>, Giza 111, H<sub>113</sub>, H<sub>129</sub>, H<sub>19</sub>L<sub>96</sub>, and H<sub>4</sub>L<sub>4 </sub>gave higher seed yield per ha, meanwhile soybean genotypes H<sub>155</sub>, H<sub>19</sub>L<sub>96</sub>, H<sub>30</sub>, Giza 111, and H<sub>15</sub>L<sub>17</sub> had higher seed oil content than the other genotypes in both seasons. The number and weight of larvae surviving, as well as the number of pupa survival, were negatively correlated with leaf total phenols and seed oil content. It can be concluded that soybean genotypes H<sub>15</sub>L<sub>17</sub>, H<sub>4</sub>L<sub>4</sub>, and Giza 111 are promising genotypes with desirable seed oil content for tolerating cotton leafworm infestation in breeding programs.展开更多

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of larval densities of A. argillacea after different infestation periods on the yield components of four cotton cultivars. The experiment was carried out in Pindorama, SP, Brazil, in the 2008/2009 growing season. The cultivars IAC-25, DeltaOPAL, Fibermax 966 and Fibermax 993 were artificially infested with A. argillacea larvae at three times (30, 60 and 90 DAE) and four densities (0, 2, 4, and 6 larvae per plant). The average boll weight (g), fiber percentage (%), 100-seed weight (g) and yield (kg·ha-1) were evaluated. With increasing infestation density of A. argillacea, the cotton yield of the cultivars decreased. The presence of larvae significantly reduced the weight of 100 seeds of cultivar Fibermax 966. Initial infestations reduced the boll weight of IAC-25 and DeltaOPAL, while cultivars Fibermax 966 and Fibermax 993 were most affected by late infestations. Early infestation compromised fiber percentage of cultivar DeltaOPAL and late infestations were most harmful to cultivar Fibermax 966. Early A. argillacea infestation reduced the yield of DeltaOPAL, while infestations 60 DAE caused the most damage to IAC-25, and the other cultivars were not affected by the moment of infestation.展开更多
