TABLE 2.

A visual quantitative 1–9 scale for resistance to a/biotic stresses evaluated in Exps 1 and 2.

Scale	Reaction category	Heat tolerance	Resistance to bruchid
1	Very highly resistant	Very good vigor and 100% pod setting and filling	Damage incidence is 0% and no holes observed
2	Highly resistant	Good vigor and 96–99% pod filling	Damage incidence is about 2–5%
3	Resistant	Good vigor and 86–95% pod filling	Damage incidence is 6–10%
4	Moderately resistant	Moderate vigor and 76–85% pod filling	Damage incidence is 11–20%
5	Moderate	Poor vigor and 51–75% pod filling	Damage incidence is 21–30%
6	Moderately susceptible	Lack of vigor and 26–50% pod filling	Damage incidence is 31–40%
7	Susceptible	Lack of vigor and 11–25% pod filling	Damage incidence is 41–50%
8	Highly susceptible	Lack of vigor and 1–10% pod filling	Damage incidence is 51–90%
9	Very highly susceptible	No flowering or podding	Damage incidence is more than 91%
