Roles of amino acids, protein, and fiber in leaf-feeding resistance of corn to the fall armyworm.

abstract：:Analyses of two-dimensional chromatographic flavonoid patterns of butterflies reared on different grass species have shown that the flavonoid pattern ofMelanargia galathea is dependent on the flavonoid content of the larval diet. This confirms the dietary origin of flavonoid pigments inM. galathea. The flavonoid patte...
