Host-plant acceptance, fecundity and longevity of tetranychus evansi (acari: tetranychidae) on selected tomato accessions
(Afr. J. Hort. Sci., 2009)
Seven tomato (Lycopersicon sp.) accessions were evaluated for their resistance to the tomato red spider mite, Tetranychus evansi Baker and Pritchard, in the laboratory. Data recorded was: (i) trichome density and (ii) ...
Effects of day-length and temperature on floral structure and fertility restoration in a season-dependent male-sterile Solanum villosum Mill. mutant
(Springer Verlag, 2007)
Solanum villosum is an important African leafy vegetable whose yield is limited mainly by competition from early and excess fruit-set. Induced male-sterility is a potential tool to reduce this competition and enhance yields. ...
