Abstract:
Tests conducted at McGregor, Texas, in 1967 indicated that hybrid sunflowers T 66001 (S-37-388T2 × HA 28), T 64001 (S-37-388T2 × HA 6 & 43), and T 56002 (S-37-388TI × HA 6 & 43) and Russian varieties `Armavirec' and `Kubannec' were damaged less serverely by larvae of the sunflower moth. Homoeosoma electellum (Hulst); than the inbred line HA 6 and varieties `Smena,' `Vostok,' `VNIIMK 8931,' and `Peredovik'.Similar tests in 1968 indicated that 2 hybrids, T 56002 and P-21 ms × HA 60, and the variety Armavirec were damaged less severely by sunflower moth larvae than `Valley' (CM90RR × Peredovik), Peredovik, VNIIMK 8931, Smena and `Krasnodarets.'In 1969, P-21 ms × HA 60, Peredovik, and Krasnodarets were less severely damaged than Smena.Document Type: Research article
