- Intervention effect Higher density of glossy collards nearly doubled eggs per plant.
- Intervention effect Higher density of yellow rocket nearly doubled eggs per plant.
- Association Oviposition preference rose with cabbage age.
- Association Oviposition preference rose with glossy collards age.
- Association Oviposition preference rose with yellow rocket age.
- Observation Larval survival on cabbage was 1.9 times higher at six than twelve weeks.
- Observation Larval survival on collards was 12.1 times higher on younger plants.
- Observation No larvae survived on yellow rocket at either tested age.
- Intervention effect Intercropping with tomato did not reduce eggs on cabbage.
- Intervention effect Intercropping with fava bean did not reduce eggs on cabbage.
- Intervention effect Water stress produced no significant oviposition difference.
- Recommendation The authors recommend higher trap-crop density and earlier seeding for glossy collards.
- Recommendation The authors recommend higher trap-crop density and earlier seeding for yellow rocket.
