plant bug

Species of spiders, plant bugs and stilt bugs are examples of invertebrates that colonize sticky plants for consuming both living and dead prey caught by the GTs (Sugiura & Yamazaki, 2006; Romero, Souza & Vasconcellos-Neto, 2008; Krimmel & Pearse, 2013).

Transform is an insecticide with a new class of chemistry and a unique mode of action that controls sucking-and-piercing insects, such as tarnished plant bugs, aphids and fleahoppers.

Knowing when plant bugs enter and break diapause and being able to predict when they begin to prepare for overwintering will allow growers to apply insecticides more efficiently.

Revision of the North American plant bug genus Megalopsallus Knight, with the description of eight new species from the West (Heteroptera: Miridae: Phylinae).

The aim of the present investigation was to study the effects of some pesticides, such as abamectin, pirimicarb and spirodiclofen on biological parameters and predation of the predaceous plant bug Deraeocoris lutescens Schilling, under laboratory conditions.

Schuh and his colleagues are interested in plant-feeding "true bugs." In particular, they are studying the family known as Miridae, or "plant bugs." They are undertaking an enormous project, called the Planetary Biodiversity Inventory (PBI), to create a database of information about 10,000 species of plant bugs.

Laboratory and greenhouse studies by BIRU scientists, including entomologists Shoil Greenberg and Randy Coleman, have shown that the spiders also prey on other cotton pests, including the cotton fleahopper, Pseudomatoscelis seriatus, and the cotton plant bug, Creontiades signatus.

Anther damage by tarnished plant bug [Linus lineolarus (Palisot de Beauvois)] to Arkot 9111 in 2004 was significantly less than damage found in two frego bract checks and equal to damage in PSC 355 and 'SG 105'.
