“Aphis fabae on Vicia faba with varietal resistance reducing alate settlement is well-documented; 1% vs 10% retention differential is biologically coherent and consistent with host-plant resistance literature.”
- entomologist · plausible
“Differential alate retention on resistant vs. susceptible Vicia faba is well-documented host-plant resistance mechanism for Aphis fabae; 1% vs 10% figures are biologically reasonable.”
