Induced resistance and differential allocation of herbivore defensive chemicals: a case study with internode borer Chilo sacchariphagus indicus (Kapur) in sugarcane

Methyl jasmonate (MeJA), a known resistance inducer molecule, when applied was found to give protection against the attack of internode borer (INB) Chilo sacchariphagus indicus (Kapur) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) in sugarcane to the extent of 86.67% as against 73.33% damage in control plants. Estimatio...
