Earlier studies of resistance to the tomato toxin 2-tridecanone revealed similar levels of resistance among tomato and cucumber strains of Tetranychus urticae, whereas we anticipated the tomato strains to have a higher resistance. Between-strain differences, however, may be concealed by

In this study we assessed the dynamic changes of 2-tridecanone in a herbivorous mite (Tetranychus urticae) on tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum, cv. 'Moneymaker'), a plant with methyl ketones in the tetracellular tips of the glandular trichomes (Type VI). We showed that
