“…Host plant resistance (HPR) offers an opportunity for effective control of sucking insect pests as an economically and environmentally safe strategy in the GM cotton system (Khan et al 2003). Khalil et al (2017) studied the role of some morphological plant traits against sucking insect pest complex in six genotypes of cotton. They identified the negative response of whitefly to gossypol glands on leaf lamina, midrib and vein.…”

“…Low leaf area is associated with an increased likelihood of disappearance of eggs and nymphs due to increased exposure (Sippell et al, 1987;Katono et al, unpubl. ) while relatively tall plants are not preferred by adults (Murugesan & Kavitha, 2010;Khalil et al, 2015;Katono et al, unpubl. ), thus reducing B. tabaci numbers that farmers desire.…”

“…It added a remarkable value about 8.2% in agriculture and round about 3.2% in gross domestic product (GDP). Two thirds of Pakistan's earnings depends upon the export of cotton products, mostly through textiles that adds round $2.5 billion in the country earning; while hundreds of textile mills and ginning factories are hugely depending upon cotton cultivation [2]. There are many factors responsible for low cotton yield but insects are ranked at the top of biotic agents that not only deteriorate the quality of cotton but also reduce the yield [3].…”

“…The cotton seeds were planted three (2) seeds per hole. Weeding and thinning was carried out exactly two (2) week after germination. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with 33 treatments having (10) plant extracts with three different concentrations (2%, 4% & 6%) and Control for each concentration ( Table 1).…”
