“…Plant antixenosis negatively affects insect colonization processes, resulting in a reduced initial infestation level, due to a feature (or set of features) that deters insects from settling and feeding [24]. The expression of antixenosis in genotypes may be a consequence of morphological, physical, and chemical features in plants and mainly affects the visual [26,27] and olfactory stimuli [28] involved in the host-finding behavior of thrips. In contrast, antibiosis negatively affects insect pest biology and their progeny (survival, development, and reproduction and are strongly influenced by the poor plant's nutritional quality (inadequate composition and concentration of soluble proteins and carbohydrates) [29,30], primary metabolites (e.g., lectins, proteinase, and amylase inhibitors), and secondary plant compounds (e.g., chlorogenic acid, glycoalkaloids, flavonoids, jasmonic acid) [31,32].…”
