Oviposition and larval establishment of three ‘generalist’ noctuids on Capsicum annuum
Abstract Understanding the oviposition and foraging behaviour of pestiferous lepidopterans on their economically important food plants guides the development of effective pest management tactics. Here, we examined the oviposition behaviour and larval establishment of three noctuid species on a single crop—capsicum (Capsicum annuum).

Linking the ICRISAT Genebank to Poverty Reduction and Welfare in Malawi
ABSTRACT Genebanks contribute to the development of improved crop varieties through the conservation and supply of diverse germplasm for use in agricultural research by scientists, such as plant breeders. Tracing their contribution to the welfare and poverty impacts of improved varieties on smallholder farmers presents multiple challenges, as the ...
