Enhancing Neoplasm Expression in Field Pea (Pisum sativum) via Intercropping and its Significance to Pea Weevil (Bruchus pisorum) Management

Neoplasm formation, a non-meristematic tissue growth on young field pea (Pisum sativum L.) pods is triggered in the absence of UV light and/or in response to oviposition by pea weevil (Bruchus pisorum L.).
