Genetic Analysis of the Resistance in Six Newly-bred Rice Varieties to the Whitebacked Planthopper,S

<正> The paper reports the study on resistance in 6 newly-bred rice varieties, such as Nongxiang 16 and 9234, to the whitehacked planthopper, Sogatella furcifera. In crossing with the susceptible Taichung Native 1 (TN1), the resistance of their F1 and F2 populations and the back-crossed BC1F1 populations have been evaluated. The resistance to 5. furcifera in Zhenongda 6022, 9234 and Zhongjian 96-3 was controlled by a single dominant gene, and by a single recessive gene in Nongxiang 16, R40 and Shuhui 881, respectively. These varieties possessed good agronomical characteristics and could be used in further rice breeding and rice production.
