Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Technologies of Rice Virus Diseases Spread by Small Brown Planthop-per (SBPH).

Rice stripe virus disease (RSVD) and rice black-streaked dwarf virus disease (RBSDVD) are two epidemic diseases in Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province in the last decade. The authors investigated the disaster regularity, prevention and control technology of RSVD and RBSDVD systematically. The occurrence and virus transmission of SBPII and disaster regularity of virus diseases were studied; the resistance of some rice varieties was cleared; the effects of physical and agricultural measures such as insect net blocking, appropriate late sowing and plowing on controlling occurrence and virus transmission of SBPII were figured out; a batch of chemical agents were screened, providing efficient and harmless pesticides for effective control against SBPH and prevention against virus diseases. A set of disaster control and mitigation technologies was proposed in this paper, which was practical, sustainable, and easy to operate for the local planting patterns. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
