Parasitism of the noctuid larvae was higher in the susceptible than the resistant cultivars, averaging 42.5 and 34.5%, respectively, and was higher (36.7-47.4%) at 13.3 plants/m2 than at 4.4 plants/m2 (32.7-36.0%). The influence of the cultivar was greater in October-November (when Carcelia illota (Curr.) was the dominant parasite) than in January (when Goniophthalmus halli Mesnil predominated) publisher: International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics date: 1983 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://oar.icrisat.org/7422/1/IPN_2_64-65_1983.pdf identifier: Sithanantham, S and Rao, V R and Reed, W (1983) Influence of pigeonpea resistance to Heliothis on the natural parasitism of Heliothis larvae.
