Plots were eight, 15-inch rows by 50 ft with four replicates in a RCBD. The LCSB damage was evaluated by inspecting the middle two rows of each plot (100 ft/plot) for the presence of lodged, potentially lodged, dead plants. This evaluation entailed slowly crawling along the assessed rows and bending each plant from side to side to confirm that the lodging or potential lodging (plant weakness and the soil line with evidence of LCSB damage) was a result of LCSB feeding. All impacted and healthy plants were recorded. Plots were harvested on 30 Nov with a Massey Furguson MF 8 research plot machine with a 6.25 ft header. LCSB damage varied widely between the varieties, from a low of 9.1% to a high of 30.6%, with a number of statistically-significant differences noted. The three varieties with the lowest LCSB damage numerically were developed for drought tolerance from the North Carolina State University breeding program. These varieties (NC01-11771, NC01-11777, and NC01-7432) showed statistically less LCSB damage than three standard North Carolina varieties (NC Raleigh, Haskell, and Benning). Of the drought tolerant lines, the yield of line with the highest LCSD damage (NC01-11136) was the lowest yielder numerically, and was also a lower statistically than two of the four remaining varieties in this category.
