Silver whitefly

Whiteflies in a high N environment matured earlier and as a consequence also started to produce honeydew earlier

Silver whitefly

Increased N application levels resulted in significantly increased densities of both adult and immature whiteflies with increased honeydew production

Silver whitefly

Increased N application levels significantly increased the number of adult whiteflies on both early and late planted cotton. This may reduce photosynthetic rates

Aphid

Increased N level alters the cotton aphid at the individual level stimulating the aphid fecundity and hastening the insect development to the reproductive stages. This may promote higher aphid populations in cotton
