t0“Effect of population levels of Thrips tabaci on different plant characters in cotton”
e2“All the plant characters tended to decrease with increasing population level except the number of damaged leaves, which kept on increasing with increasing population level”
e5“Observations recorded to estimate the nature and extent of losses were number of leaves per plant, number of damaged leaves per plant, leaf size, internodal length, plant height, number of sympods, number of monopods, number of squares, number of flowers, number of bolls, number of pickable bolls, seed cotton yield and root size”
