Title: Resistance against spider mites in cotton induced by mechanical abrasion: Journal: Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata; Authors: R. Karban; Date: 1985; Summary: Mechanical abrasion of cotyledons induced resistance to spider mites (Tetranychus urticae) in cotton plants in four of six replicates. Mite population growth was reduced on plants that had either been abraded or had been previously exposed to mite feeding, compared to undamaged controls. Populations of mites were not different for plants that were abraded and for those that had been exposed previously to mites. In two of the six replicates, mite populations were not different for abraded, previously exposed, and control plants. In these two replicates, densities of mit ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Riparian zones, Rangelands, Wildlife; View more details about this article
