e0“Yield losses and damage were greater during stage 5 (pollen-shedding) than during stage 2 (early whorl) of plant development.”
e1“A method of producing a Poisson distribution of egg masses over plants and time was developed for artificial infestation of field corn that simulates natural oviposition by Ostrinia nubilalis (Hübner).”
