Influence of long-chain fatty acids on weight gain of Hylastinus obscurus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

The contents of long-chain fatty acids in non-polar root extracts from 1.6 year-old red clover plants of two cultivars (Superqueli INIA and Quiñequeli INIA) and one experimental line (Syn II Pre III), their relationships with H. obscurus populations, and the stimulant or deterrent effects of the roo...
