In this study, 550 Gossypium genotypes were evaluated for whitefly(Bemisia tabaci) resistance in five experiments including two in the field and three in the greenhouse, with23 resistant and 19 susceptible genotypes selected.Whitefly-resistance index determination showed that a leaf having a high density of hairs had resistance to whitfly egg/nymph production. Longer leaf hairs were also important for resistance. This study revealed that okra shaped leaves reduced adult whitefly oviposition preference, while glabrous leaves and high hair density helped not only in the reduction of the adults but also decreased oviposition preference. Gossypol was also observed to be involved in the reduction of adult whitefly development and/or survival.展开更多
