Tomatine and parasitic wasps: potential incompatibility of plant antibiosis with biological control |
|
| Authors: | Campbell B C Duffey S S |
| Abstract: | alpha-Tomatine, an alkaloid in tomato plants, is toxic to an endoparasite of a major lepidopterous pest of tomatoes. The parasite acquires the alkaloid from its host after the host ingests the alkaloid. This form of interaction creates a potential dilemma to controlling herbivorous pests through chemical antibiosis in plants. |
