Figure 1:

Mean weekly percentage infestation of Tuta absoluta on leaves of different tomato varieties (LSD = 6.1742).

Figure 2:

Mean weekly percentage infestation of Tuta absoluta on fruits of different tomato varieties (LSD = 2.5934) F = 4.11 P < 0.001.

Figure 3:
Overall percentage infestation of Tuta absoluta on leaves and fruits of different tomato varieties.
*Means followed by same letters are not significantly different from each other (P < 0.05, LSD values leaves = 1.2603, fruits = 0.5294).
