Abstract

The work herein was carried out to estimate the damage caused by rodent species on some cultivars of yellow and white maize crop at EL-Dahasa village, Farshut district, Qena governorate, Egypt during the summer 2018 and 2019 seasons. The genotypes studied were three Yellow maize (Balady and Single Cross: S. C. 2055, S. C. 2066) and four white maize [ (Single cross:  S. C. 4 and S. C. 6) and (three ways cross:  T.W. C. 310 and T. W. C. 11)]. The Balady variety is more attacked by rodents compared to the single and triple hybrids, and this may be due to the early maturing variety (80-90 days) compared to the single and triple hybrids (110-120 days). Also, the yellow corn cultivars are more vulnerable to rodents than the white cultivars, due to the fact that they contain a greater amount of oils compared to the white cultivars.
