Evaluation of Qingliu resistance to BPH. a Comparison of settlement preference of third instar N. lugens nymphs between Qingliu and TN1 at 3, 6, 24 and 48 h of infestation (N = 400). Comparison of the area of b phloem-derived and xylem-derived honeydew excretion between gravid female N. lugens adults feeding on Qingliu and TN1. The experiment was repeated three times with a sample size of 8–10 (mean area ± SE). The settlement preference was analyzed using the z-test (*p < 0.05; ***p < 0.001), whereas the honeydew excretion test was analyzed using two-way ANOVA and LSD post hoc test with different letters denoting significant differences (p < 0.05). QL = Qingliu, n.s. = not significant
