Abstract

This article contains the data on chili antixenosis and antibiosis to fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) infestations. The data was collected from the experiment. Fifty chili varieties (Capsicum spp.) were planted in the screen house and subjected to antixenosis and antibiosis tests. The antixenosis test was evaluated using choice and no-choice methods. The data observed was the number of oviposition punctures by fruit fly on the chili fruits. The antibiosis test was conducted on chili fruits using the Fitness Index method. The data observed were the percentage of pupa (%), the weight of pupa (mg), duration of larva-pupa (day), and duration of pupa-imago (day).

Highlights

This article contains the data on chili antixenosis and antibiosis to fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) infestations
The antibiosis test was conducted on chili fruits using the Fitness Index method
We present the data of antixenosis and antibiosis of fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) infestation on fifty chili varieties based on response of oviposit female fruit fly on chili fruits (Table 1)

Summary

Data Article

Dataset on antixenosis and antibiosis of chili fruit by fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) infestation. This article contains the data on chili antixenosis and antibiosis to fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) infestations. The data observed was the number of oviposition punctures by fruit fly on the chili fruits. The antibiosis test was conducted on chili fruits using the Fitness Index method. We present the data of antixenosis and antibiosis of fruit fly (Bactrocera dorsalis) infestation on fifty chili varieties based on response of oviposit female fruit fly on chili fruits (Table 1). The Data was generated from antixenosis test conducted with choice and no-choice methods. The observed parameter for measuring the level of antixenosis was the number of oviposition punctures by female fruit fly on the fruit surface. An antibiosis test conducted by inserting fruit fly eggs on chili fruits.
