2 R= leaf hairs may cause insect resistance or partial resistance, or are a charac- 

 ter associated with resistance. S = insect susceptibility associated with plant pubes- 

 cence. N = no measurable differences. R?= probably resistant, literature not clear. 



*F = feeding. I = insects are immobilized by hairs or trichome exudates. O = ovi- 

 position. P = leaf hairs provide protection, resulting in insect susceptibility. T= repel- 

 lant or toxic material from trichomes. 0?= probably oviposition, literature not 

 clear. Blank spaces indicate that the literature does not specifically state the resis- 

 tance or susceptibility mechanisms involved. 



4 Common name used in the publication(s) cited and not on the ESA List of Com- 

 mon Names (most of these names include only species that inhabit the United States, 

 Canada, or their possessions or territories).
