The feeding of lepidopteran pests, Amsacta albistriga W., Aproaerema modicella D. and Spilosoma obliqua W., caused feeding stress in the Arachis hypogaea L. plants. As a common defensive response, the plant exhibited variations in the primary and secondary metabolic contents. Groundnut plant antioxi...
