It was concluded that keeping Chakwal 86 as (susceptible/ check), Sariab 92 and Bakhtawar were found to be highly susceptible. Inqilab 91, Khyber 87, Faisalabad 85 were not significantly different from the standard Chakwal 86. Rawal 87 and Pak 81 turned out to be partially resistant. C591 turned out to be susceptible to partially resistant against Red FlourBeetle (RFB). The results showed that there was variability in different wheat cultivars and none of them found to be completely resistant. Although complete immunity was not possible, yet some of the genetic traits could be incorporated for evolving varieties which possess resistant characters. The present results also show that as susceptible variety is highly preferable, so it can be used as a quick and mass laboratory culture of RFB, which may be needed in other scientific experiments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
