The effects of kaolin particle film on Plutella xylostella behaviour and development.
TLDR
The results warrant the extension of investigations of kaolin-based particle films to field-based P. xylostella management strategies, as any observed treatment effect was enhanced with an increase in the particle film coverage.

Effects of kaolin particle film on Myzus persicae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) behaviour and performance.
TLDR
Investigation of the mode of action of kaolin against aphids found that when M. persicae were given a choice between kaolin-treated and untreated (or water solvent-treated) leaf areas, both adults and nymphs exhibited a significant preference for non-kaolin- treated host-plant material.

Arabidopsis thaliana as a model host plant for Plutella xylostella.
TLDR
Preliminary laboratory investigations have shown that A. thaliana can be used as a host plant by Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae) and have demonstrated that larval period, pupal period and pupal weight measurements of P. xylastella developing on A.Thaliana are comparable to those on Brassica rapa.
