Each pair was caged on a potted eggplant, as described above.
In one olfactometer, six infested vs. six uninfested soybean leaves and in the other olfactometer, four infested eggplant vs. four uninfested eggplant leaves were tested.
However, the production of marketable eggplant is compromised due to numerous pest species that feed on eggplant.
These predatory mite responses to both infested soybean and infested eggplant do not differ significantly from the responses shown in fig. 1.
Successful commercialization of insect-resistant eggplant by a public- private partnership: reaching and benefiting resource-poor farmers.
Also, the relative response of the predatory mites towards infested eggplant and soybean leaves was not significantly different.
More soybean than eggplant leaves were tested because the soybean leaf area was smaller (table 1).
168 application to the eggplant data, and should be used instead of more traditional methods when the genotyping error rate may be larger than 0.005.
