Figure 2. Mean (+ SEM) feeding scores for female Dectes texanus fed either sunflower or soybean as adults in the laboratory and caged for 48 h each on sunflower and soybean plants sequentially in field trials. Different letters indicate significantly different feeding scores on sunflower vs. soybean plants for females fed a particular plant in the laboratory prior to testing (paired t-test, α < 0.05). Asterisks indicate significant differneces between diet treatments in response to plants of a particular of type (one-way ANOVA, α < 0.01).
