Journal ArticleDOI

Leaf flavonoids of the cruciferous species, Camelina sativa, Crambe spp., Thlaspi arvense and several other genera of the family Brassicaceae

TL;DR: Flavonoids present in several other crucifer species were identified by TLC only and derivatives of the flavonols, apigenin and luteolin, accumulate in C. abyssinica, C. hispanica and T. arvense leaves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of flavonoids on feeding preference and development of the crucifer pest Mamestra configurata Walker.

TL;DR: Thirty-seven flavonoid compounds were investigated for their effect on feeding choice with bertha armyworm and flavone reduced both larval weight as well as larval and pupal development time in a no-choice bioassay.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constant Versus Fluctuating Temperatures in the Interactions between Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) and Its Larval Parasitoid Diadegma insulare (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae)

TL;DR: Comparing successful parasitism capacity of the wasp and pupal survival and body mass of both host and parasitoid, it is concluded that D. insulare is a more effective Parasitoid at lower temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prefeeding Behavior of the Crucifer Flea Beetle, Phyllotreta cruciferae, on Host and Nonhost Crucifers

TL;DR: Differences in time spent on plant tissue and the frequency and duration of prefeeding behaviors provide insight into possible mechanisms of resistance to flea beetles in the non-Brassica crucifers.
Journal ArticleDOI

“HAIRY CANOLA” – Arabidopsis GL3 Induces a Dense Covering of Trichomes on Brassica napus Seedlings

TL;DR: The results suggest that trichome development in B. napus may be regulated differently from Arabidopsis, and imply that insertion of GL3 into Brassica species under a tissue-specific promoter has strong potential for developing insect-resistant crop plants.
