Resumomeans were compared by statistical tests.The analysis of the large genetic variability in all cultivars resulted in the formation of different groups.The test of resistance showed that the cultivar Inhuma was the most sensitive to both number of eggs and number of emerged adults, while the TE96-290-12-G and MNC99-537-F4 (BRS Tumucumaque) cultivars were the least sensitive to the number of eggs and the number of emerged insects, respectively.
