Abstract:
The small brown planthopper (SBPH) Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén) is a very important agricultural pest which can cause major harm to rice crops by acting as a vector of the rice stripe virus (RSV) and rice black streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV). In this study, the population dynamics of SBPH and its viruscarrying rate were systematically investigated and measured in ricewheat fields (rotation treatment vs. nonrotation treatment) in Shandong Province. The results indicate that (1) a higher SBPH density was found in the ricewheat rotation regions than in the nonrotation treatment, so it is presumed that SBPH favor the ricewheat rotation regions; (2) only RBSDV was detected in the SBPH from wheat fields, whereas both RBSDV and RSV were detected in SBPH from rice fields; (3) different viruscarrying rates were found between lighttrapped SBPH and the local SBPH population in Ningjin County; and, (4) from a total of 1 268 individuals tested, only one SBPH simultaneously carried both RBSDV and RSV, which indicates that SBPH can simultaneously carry both viruses but that such
individuals are relatively rare.
