Antixenosis Potential in Pulses Against the Pea Aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
The aim of the study was to explore the acceptability of 14 species, varieties, and cultivars of grain legumes (Fabales: Fabaceae) to the pea aphid, by investigating the aphid probing behavior using the electrical penetration graph (EPG) technique. Phaseolus coccineus L. 'Felicia', Pisum sativum L. 'Medal', P. sativum arvense (L.) Poir.

Resistance of Soybean Genotypes toAnticarsia gemmatalis(Lepidoptera: Erebidae): Antixenosis and Antibiosis Characterization [PDF]
AbstractInjury by herbivores is a major biotic stress that limits soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] crop production. Among the main soybean insect pests, Anticarsia gemmatalis Hübner is responsible for causing significant economic damage in soybean. The primary management strategy for this insect is chemical control and use of Bt transgenic soybean ...

Characterization of antixenosis toDichelops melacanthus(Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in soybean genotypes [PDF]
ABSTRACTSoybeans are of great importance in the world agricultural landscape, and their productive potential is significantly reduced by attacks from insect pests. Factors such as the expansion of national agricultural regions, together with no-tillage management and “off-season” maize cultivation, have favored the increase of secondary species such as
