Hairy leaves in cotton resist jassids, while in wheat, solid stems and smooth leaves resist stem sawfly; maize with high aspartic acid, low nitrogen and sugar content resists stem borers.
Le foglie pelose nel cotone resistono ai diaspidi, mentre negli$r> i frumenti, steli solidi e foglie lisce resistono alla mosca del grano; mais con alto contenuto di acido aspartico, basso azoto e zuccheri resiste ai parassiti del fusto.
| Text | Hairy leaves resist insect pests, e.g, jassids in cotton and cereal leaf beetle in wheat. In wheat, solid stems lead to non-preference by the stem sawfly and smooth leaved and nectar-less cotton varieties do not attract bollworms. High aspartic acid, low nitrogen and sugar content in maize leads to resistance to maize stem borers. |
