Selective leaf surface defenses: trichomes trap herbivorous leafminers but spare parasitoid wasps
Hooked trichomes on kidney bean leaves selectively entrap leafminer flies but rarely affect parasitoid wasps. This morphological barrier enables pest suppression with minimal impact on beneficial insects, offering insights for breeding pest‐resistant cultivars compatible with biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND Leafminers [e.g., Liriomyza trifolii (
