Abstract excerpt
Cotton leaf worm (Spodoptera littoralis) is considered one of the most destructive agricultural pests in Egypt. Six soybean cultivars (Giza-21, Giza-22, Giza-35, Giza-82, Giza-83 and Giza-111) were grown under natural infection with cotton leaf worm. The effect of two elicitors, methyl jasmonate and sodium nitroprusside on enhancing the ability of susceptible cultivars to tolerate (Spodoptera littoralis) was...
