摘要: Abstract In choice tests, beet armyworm (BAW), Spodoptera exigua, larvae feed preferentially on leaves from peanut plants, Arachis hypogaea L., previously infected by the white mold fungus, Sclerotium rolfsii Saccodes (mitosporic fungi) (Cardoza et al. 2002). this study we determined that third instar BAW caterpillars allowed to S. rolfsii-infected plants had significantly higher survival, produced heavier pupae, and shorter time pupation than those healthy plants. Leaf tissue contained similar levels of soluble insoluble protein, but sugars. addition, mold-infected lower starch content total phenolics compared with Levels jasmonic acid were in attacked either fungus or BAW, then fed BAW.
