Potential of potassium silicate application on barley, Hordeum vulgare for management of corn-leaf aphid, Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch) L
Corn-leaf aphid (CLA), Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch) prefers barley (Hordeum vulgare) the most and suck its phloem sap. Owing to lack of resistant barley cultivars against R. maidis, the current study was formulated to evaluate the effect of seven silicon (Si) treatments (including control) on feeding preference of R. maidis on detached-barley leaf sections under free and pair choice tests in controlled conditions (20 °C; 70 ± 10 % RH) at ICAR-IIWBR (India). The treatments included different concentrations of potassium and sodium silicate as: T1-Na2SiO3 0.25 %, T2-Na2SiO3 0.5 %, T3-Na2SiO3 1 %, T4-K2SiO3 0.25 %, T5-K2SiO3 0.5 %, T6-K2SiO3 1 % and C-Control. The statistically highest Si deposition was observed in T6-K2SiO3 1 % with 0.1396 mean absorbance at 650 nm wavelength. In a similar trend, the significantly minimum number of aphids were reported on T6-K2SiO3 1 % (0.73 and 0.25) which was at-par with T3-Na2SiO3 1 % (0.88 and 0.40) under free (LSD = 0.34) and pair choice tests (LSD = 0.18), respectively. The nymph production was also significantly lowest in T6-K2SiO3 1 % with 7.04 nymphs (LSD = 2.42) and highest reduction of 82.05 % in mean number of aphids over control. Overall, potassium silicate was more effective than sodium silicate with T6-K2SiO3 1 % as the best treatment which can be utilized as an environmentally friendly approach for R. maidis management in barley. This study can form the basis of further investigations on prospects of silicon application for managing CLA under field conditions.
期刊介绍:
The Editors of Crop Protection especially welcome papers describing an interdisciplinary approach showing how different control strategies can be integrated into practical pest management programs, covering high and low input agricultural systems worldwide. Crop Protection particularly emphasizes the practical aspects of control in the field and for protected crops, and includes work which may lead in the near future to more effective control. The journal does not duplicate the many existing excellent biological science journals, which deal mainly with the more fundamental aspects of plant pathology, applied zoology and weed science. Crop Protection covers all practical aspects of pest, disease and weed control, including the following topics:
-Abiotic damage-
Agronomic control methods-
Assessment of pest and disease damage-
Molecular methods for the detection and assessment of pests and diseases-

Control of animal pests of world crops-
Control of diseases of crop plants caused by microorganisms-
Control of weeds and integrated management-
Economic considerations-
Effects of plant growth regulators-
Environmental benefits of reduced pesticide use-
Environmental effects of pesticides-
Epidemiology of pests and diseases in relation to control-
GM Crops, and genetic engineering applications-
Importance and control of postharvest crop losses-
Integrated control-
Interrelationships and compatibility among different control strategies-
Invasive species as they relate to implications for crop protection-
Pesticide application methods-
Pest management-
Phytobiomes for pest and disease control-
Resistance management-
Sampling and monitoring schemes for diseases, nematodes, pests and weeds.
