Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Laboratory reared adults produced second generation third instar larvae.
- Observation Paired choice tests found no difference in oviposition rates between resistant and susceptible varieties.
- Observation No choice tests found significantly greater feeding damage on the susceptible variety.
- Mechanism The authors inferred antibiosis rather than antixenosis in the resistant variety.
- Method / resource The protocols can expedite development of root maggot resistant sugar beet varieties.
