Resistance of Common Bean Genotypes to the Broad Mite, (Banks, 1904) (Acari: Tarsonemidae): Offspring Development and Biochemical Basis.

The broad mite (BM) is a pest of great prominence for several crops, including the common bean (). The objective of this study was to select resistant genotypes and to determine chemicals associated with resistance. In the first experiment, BM incidence was assessed for 36 genotypes in a greenhouse study.
