Abstract

This paper discusses insect behaviour and host plant resistance under single-plant species resistance and plant population resistance. Under single-plant species resistance, the effects of repellents, surface texture, shape and colour to insect behaviour are briefly reviewed and discussed. The effects of plant species diversity and plant density on insect behaviour are discussed under plant population resistance. Where possible, this discussion is illustrated with examples from recent behavioural studies on the weevil, Sitona lineatus L.
