The study aimed to investigate the morpho-biochemical basis of resistance to the rice leaf folder Cnaphalocrocis medinalis in ten rice varieties, at the Main Rice Research Centre Farm, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari, Gujarat during kharif 2021. The width of the leaves varied among the varieties, with GNR-2, GNR-6, GNR-7, and GR-15 having the smallest leaves and TN-1 and GNR-4 having the largest. There was a significant positive correlation between leaf width and infestation. Analysis of chlorophyll, sugar, and protein content in the leaves showed that TN-1 had the highest levels at both 30 days and 50 days after transplanting (DAT), while GR-15 had the lowest. These factors were positively correlated with infestation. On the other hand, phenol content was the highest in GR-15 and lowest in TN-1, with a significant negative correlation with infestation. Chlorophyll, sugar, and protein content increased with higher infestation levels while phenol content decreased.
