Figure 4. Sampling protocol schedule including plant growth (S: plant seeding; T1/T2: routine plants transfer), T. absoluta infestation and development throughout the plant development stages (EI: egg incubation on plant leaves; L: larvae; P: pupae; A: adults) and plant sampling events (HM1, HM2 and HM3: 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd plant height measurement, respectively; CNM: carbon/nitrogen content measurement in tomato leaves before T. absoluta larvae infestation; NC: node counting of tomato plants); DAS: days after seeding; Nutritional treatments lasted from DAS 8 to DAS 60 (also see Figure 1).
