The second peak reached 12 and 9 per 5 plants respectively during the middle of October. The infestation began after about 7 weeks of sowing, with infestation rates reaching 10.93 and 24.83%. As for the summer sowing time, it increased during the months of September, October and November to reach a second peak of 27.33, 38.33 and 29.47%, respectively, and its general rates were less than 18.04% , which significantly different from the spring sowing season.
