  		Fig. 1 CO2 assimilation of the youngest leaf with a ligule in maize plants with root system damage caused by corn rootworm larval feeding or by mechanical cutting. Pots were infested 38 d after planting (V7 leaf stage). Late 3rd stage larvae and pupae were found 49 d after planting (V10 leaf stage). Mechanical damage to the 4th and/or 5th root nodes was performed 45 d after planting (V9 leaf stage) and again on the 6th node 51 d after planting (V11 leaf stage). Data points represent means for 4 replicate measurements per treatment. Upon obtaining a significant ANOVA for data within dates, LSD values represented by error bars were calculated

  		Fig. 2 Area of individual leaves from maize plants grown in Exp. 2. Leaves were measured at the V9 (Exp. 2A) or V12 (Exp. 2B) leaf stage. The soil was infested when plants were at the V6 leaf stage with 0, 30, or 60 larvae per pot. Data points represent mean ± standard error for 5 replicate measurements per treatment
