Abstract
The brown planthopper (BPH: Nilaparvata lugens Stål) is one of the most destructive insects in rice production. The use of host plant resistance has potential to reduce damage caused by BPH. The heat tolerance japonica rice 'Sagabiyori', with superior grain quality and high soluble starch in the stem, is highly susceptible to damage by BPH. Here, to enhance its BPH resistance, we developed seven near-isogenic lines (NILs) carrying BPH2, BPH17-ptb, BPH32, BPH3, BPH17, BPH20, and BPH21 through marker-assisted selection and evaluated resistance to two BPH populations. Most lines were more resistant to the Hadano-1966 BPH population than Sagabiyori but were less effective against the highly virulent Koshi-2013 population. Nevertheless, in antixenosis tests, Koshi-2013 settled less on all NILs than on Sagabiyori. In addition, adult mortality and the percentage of fresh weight loss of lines carrying BPH17 and BPH3 indicated that these lines have higher resistance to Koshi-2013 than Sagabiyori. Current study revealed that BPH resistance of Sagabiyori became stronger by transferring BPH3 and BPH17 genes. Thus, BPH3 and BPH17 might be valuable for breeding programs to enhance BPH resistance of high grain quality rice varieties with heat tolerance.

Near-isogenic lines for resistance to brown planthopper with the genetic background of Indica Group elite rice ( Oryza sativa L.) variety 'IR64'. BREEDING SCIENCE 2023; 73:278-289. [PMID: 37840984 PMCID: PMC10570883 DOI: 10.1270/jsbbs.22093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
The brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens Stål, is an insect pest that severely damages rice (Oryza sativa L.) in Asia, causing huge yield loss. Use of resistant variety is a cost-effective and eco-friendly strategy for maintaining BPH populations below the economic injury level. However, current BPH populations have been changed to virulence against resistant varieties. In this study, to estimate effective combinations among eight BPH resistance genes (BPH32, BPH17-ptb, BPH20, BPH17, BPH3, BPH25, BPH26 and qBPH6), eight near-isogenic lines with the genetic background of an Indica Group rice variety 'IR64' (IR64-NIL) were developed using marker-assisted selection. The genome recoveries of these NILs ranged from 89.3% to 98.8% and agronomic traits of them were similar to those of 'IR64'. In modified seed box screening test, resistance level of IR64-NILs was higher than that of 'IR64'. In antibiosis test, high adult mortalities of BPH (from 56.0% to 97.0%) were observed among NILs, in comparison with that of 'IR64'. Among IR64-NILs, the line carrying BPH17 showed the highest resistance level at all tests. Thus, these IR64-NILs with multiple BPH resistance genes could be valuable breeding lines for enhancing resistance levels by gene pyramiding and multiline variety.

INSECTS 2022; 13:insects13070604. [PMID: 35886780 PMCID: PMC9318006 DOI: 10.3390/insects13070604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2022] [Revised: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Simple Summary Rice is often attacked by several herbivores and plant pathogens at the same time. Public research has mainly focused on enhancing rice resistance against these biotic stresses by selecting rice lines with resistance genes during breeding programs. However, rice resistance to biotic stresses is also affected by soil nutrients, including available nitrogen and silicon. Nitrogen tends to reduce resistance, but silicon can increase resistance. We assessed the effects of combining soil silicon with host plant resistance against rice planthoppers, blast disease, and bacterial blight disease. We used pure silicon (SiO2) to avoid the confounding effects of nutrients associated with silicates. We also assessed the effects of nitrogenous fertilizer on silicon-augmented resistance to planthoppers. We found that high nitrogen diminishes the capacity of soil silicon and host resistance to reduce planthopper fitness (i.e., nitrogen was antagonistic); but that silicon counters nitrogen-related reductions in rice antixenosis defenses (e.g., repellency) against gravid female planthoppers (i.e., an additive effect of silicon and resistance). Silicon augmented resistance against blast and bacterial blight, but the effects were most apparent on susceptible varieties. Plants infected with bacterial blight generally grew larger in silicon amended soils. We discuss how silicon improves seedling quality by augmenting broad-spectrum resistance. Abstract Soil silicon enhances rice defenses against a range of biotic stresses. However, the magnitude of these effects can depend on the nature of the rice variety. We conducted a series of greenhouse experiments to examine the effects of silicon on planthoppers (Nilaparvata lugens [BPH] and Sogatella furcifera [WBPH]), a leafhopper (Nephotettix virescens [GLH]), blast disease (Magnaporthe grisea) and bacterial blight (Xanthomonas oryzae) in susceptible and resistant rice. We added powdered silica gel (SiO2) to paddy soil at equivalent to 0.25, 1.0, and 4.0 t ha−1. Added silicon reduced BPH nymph settling, but the effect was negligible under high nitrogen. In a choice experiment, BPH egg-laying was lower than untreated controls under all silicon treatments regardless of nitrogen or variety, whereas, in a no-choice experiment, silicon reduced egg-laying on the susceptible but not the resistant (BPH32 gene) variety. Stronger effects in choice experiments suggest that silicon mainly enhanced antixenosis defenses. We found no effects of silicon on WBPH or GLH. Silicon reduced blast damage to susceptible and resistant (Piz, Piz-5 and Pi9 genes) rice. Silicon reduced damage from a virulent strain of bacterial blight but had little effect on a less virulent strain in susceptible and resistant (Xa4, Xa7 and Xa4 + Xa7 genes) varieties. When combined with resistance, silicon had an additive effect in reducing biomass losses to plants infested with bacterial blight (resistance up to 50%; silicon 20%). We discuss how silicon-containing soil amendments can be combined with host resistance to reduce biotic stresses in rice.

Abstract
Simple Summary Planthopper outbreaks in rice are associated with excessive fertilizer applications. Public research has focused on developing resistant rice to combat these outbreaks. However, to preserve ecosystem resilience, natural enemy efficacy should be maintained on resistant and susceptible rice. We examined the impact of egg parasitoids on planthoppers (Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) [BPH] and Sogatella furcifera (Horváth) [WBPH]) and a leafhopper (Nephotettix virescens (Distant) [GLH]) in field plots of resistant (IR62) and susceptible (IR64) rice under low and high nitrogen. GLH and WBPH were more abundant in low-nitrogen plots during dry (GLH) and wet (GLH, WBPH) season sampling at an early crop stage. GLH were also more abundant on IR64. Parasitoids killed between 24 and 52% of planthopper eggs during exposures in trap plants. Parasitism by Oligosita and Anagrus wasps was higher on IR64 (BPH eggs) and in high-nitrogen plots (Oligosita spp. on BPH and WBPH eggs; Anagrus spp. on BPH eggs). Parasitism by Anagrus spp. was associated with the presence of honeydew and was highest where honeydew was derived from BPH feeding on IR62; these effects were only observed under high nitrogen. Results suggest that honeydew from IR62 favors parasitoids when plants are most vulnerable (i.e., under high nitrogen), thereby countering nitrogen-induced declines in host resistance. Abstract Host plant resistance is the most researched method for the management of planthoppers and leafhoppers in tropical rice. For optimal effects, resistance should be resilient to fertilizer inputs and work in synergy with natural enemies. In field plot experiments, we examined how rice resistance and fertilizer inputs affect mortality of planthopper and leafhopper eggs by hymenopteran parasitoids. We used IR62 as a variety with resistance to Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) [BPH], Sogatella furcifera (Horváth) [WBPH] and Nephotettix virescens (Distant) [GLH], and IR64 as a susceptible control. The herbivores were more abundant during wet season sampling in low-nitrogen plots. During this study, parasitoids killed between 31 and 38% of BPH eggs and 24 and 52% of WBPH eggs during four days of field exposure. Parasitism, mainly due to Oligosita spp., was generally higher in high-nitrogen and IR64 plots. Similar densities of eggs in exposed plants suggest that these trends were mediated by semiochemicals and therefore support the Optimal Defense Hypothesis. Honeydew from BPH on IR62 had more xylem-derived wastes than honeydew on IR64. We applied honeydew from both varieties to sentinel plants. Parasitism by Anagrus spp. was higher on plants of either variety treated with honeydew derived from IR62; however, the effect was only apparent in high-nitrogen plots. Results suggest that Anagrus spp., by responding to honeydew, will counter the nitrogen-induced enhancement of planthopper fitness on resistant rice.

Compatibility of Insecticides with Rice Resistance to Planthoppers as Influenced by the Timing and Frequency of Applications. INSECTS 2022; 13:insects13020106.

Abstract
Simple Summary The brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål)(BPH) is a pest of rice in Asia. Varietal resistance is proposed as an alternative to insecticides that reduces BPH densities. However, in practice, resistance is often combined with insecticide use. We examined the effects of combining seven insecticides with resistance. We applied insecticides as one, two or three applications (experiment 1), or as early or late applications (experiment 2) to resistant (IR62) and susceptible (IR64) rice in a screenhouse environment. Carbofuran and fipronil reduced BPH biomass density. Single applications of cartap hydrochloride, cypermethrin, or buprofezin reduced BPH biomass densities on IR62, but not on IR64 (i.e., synergies); however, the effects were weak and multiple applications of all insecticides (≥2) eliminated synergies. Multiple applications of deltamethrin were antagonistic to resistance as indicated by higher densities of planthoppers on treated IR62 than on treated IR64. In non-infested plants from experiment 2, late applications reduced rice yields compared to early applications. Results suggest that early applications of some insecticides risk enhancing BPH densities, whereas late applications risk reducing rice yields. To avoid negative effects, applications should be made in compliance with Integrated Pest Management principals and multiple insecticide applications to BPH resistant rice should be avoided. Abstract The brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål)(BPH) is a pest of rice in Asia. We examined the effects of seven insecticides combined with host resistance against BPH. In a screenhouse environment, we treated BPH-infested and non-infested resistant (IR62) and susceptible (IR64) rice with buprofezin, carbofuran, cartap hydrochloride, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, fipronil, or thiamethoxam + chlorantraniliprole. In one experiment, plants received one, two or three applications. In a second experiment, plants received one early or late insecticide application. Carbofuran and fipronil reduced planthopper biomass densities but resistance did not contribute to these effects (i.e., resistance was redundant). Single applications of cartap hydrochloride (at 20 or 50 days after sowing (DAS)), cypermethrin (20 DAS), or buprofezin (50 DAS) reduced BPH biomass densities on IR62 (i.e., synergies); other insecticides and application times, and multiple applications of all insecticides did not reduce BPH biomass densities on IR62 more than on IR64 (i.e., either resistance or insecticides were redundant). Deltamethrin (three applications) was antagonistic to resistance, but host resistance tended to buffer against the negative effects of single deltamethrin applications. Yields of infested IR62 were not statistically improved by insecticide applications. Late applications reduced yields of non-infested rice. We discuss how prophylactic insecticide applications could destabilize BPH populations and reduce the productivity and profitability of resistant rice.
