KNOWLEDGE FOR LIFE
Different categories of non-target attack (NTA)
Mogulones crucifer
Spillover NTA: on plants closely
related to the target weed, on
which the biocontrol agent can
develop to a certain extent;
depends on presence of target Hackelia
weed micrantha
Cirsium Rhinocyllus
Sustained NTA: non-target plant pitcheri conicus
can act as an alternative host for
the agent
severe effects possible
