impact of insecticide residue exposure on the invasive pest, halyomorpha halys (hemiptera: pentatomidae): analysis of adult mobility.twenty eight insecticides were evaluated in the laboratory to characterize the impact of specific compounds on locomotory behavior and mobility of adult halyomorpha halys (stål) (hemiptera: pentatomidae). horizontal distance and angular velocity were measured for individuals exposed to dry insecticide residue for 4.5 h to evaluate how quickly and intensely a given insecticide induced changes in motor activities in no-choice glass arenas. eight out of nine pyrethroid insecticides induced uncoordi ...201323448027
impact of insecticides on the invasive halyomorpha halys (hemiptera: pentatomidae): analysis of insecticide lethality.the efficacy of 37 insecticide treatments against adult halyomorpha halys (stål) was established based on exposure to 18-h old dry insecticide residue in laboratory bioassays. individual adult h. halys were exposed to an insecticide residue for 4.5 h and then monitored daily for survivorship over a 7-d period. the proportion of dead and moribund insects was used as an estimate of overall insecticide efficacy against h. halys immediately after the exposure period and over the 7-d trial. among all ...201223156170
irritant contact dermatitis to the brown marmorated stink bug, halyomorpha halys.the brown marmorated stink bug, halyomorpha halys, is native to asia (china, taiwan, japan, and the korean peninsula). it was first found in allentown, pa, in 1996 and has since spread across wide areas of the eastern united states. as of october 2010, at least 26 states have reported the presence of the brown marmorated stink bug. it is considered an invasive species, and to the best of scientific knowledge, it was accidently introduced into the united states through transportation of goods fro ...201522828257
potential geographic distribution of brown marmorated stink bug invasion (halyomorpha halys).the brown marmorated stink bug (bmsb), halyomorpha halys (stål) (hemiptera: pentatomidae), native to asia, is becoming an invasive species with a rapidly expanding range in north america and europe. in the us, it is a household pest and also caused unprecedented damage to agriculture crops. exploring its climatic limits and estimating its potential geographic distribution can provide critical information for management strategies. methodology/principals: we used direct climate comparisons to exp ...201222363595
virulence of select entomopathogenic fungi to the brown marmorated stink bug, halyomorpha halys (stål) (heteroptera: pentatomidae).the brown marmorated stink bug. halyomorpha halys, (bmsb) is an exotic pest causing damage to fruits and vegetables. they also transmit diseases. integrated pest management strategies are lacking for this invasive. for the first time, information is presented on the virulence of several entomopathogenic fungi against bmsb. three beauveria bassiana and two metarhizium anispoliae isolates were bioassayed against adult bmsb. one b. bassiana isolate was the active ingredient in botanigard(®) which ...201222223199
complete mitochondrial genome of brown marmorated stink bug halyomorpha halys (hemiptera: pentatomidae), and phylogenetic relationships of hemipteran suborders.the newly sequenced complete mitochondrial genome of the brown marmorated stink bug, halyomorpha halys (stål) (hemiptera: pentatomidae), is a circular molecule of 16,518 bp with a total a+t content of 76.4% and two extensive repeat regions in a+t rich region. nucleotide composition and codon usage of h. halys are about average when compared with values observed in 19 other published hemipteran mitochondrial genomes. phylogenetic analyses using these 20 hemipteran mitochondrial genomes support th ...200919756390
seasonal occurrence and impact of halyomorpha halys (hemiptera: pentatomidae) in tree fruit.halyomorpha halys is an introduced stink bug species from asia that is spreading throughout the mid-atlantic united states. it is native to south korea, japan, and eastern china, where it is an occasional pest of tree fruit, including apple and pear. cage experiments with adults placed on apple and peach during critical plant growth stages demonstrate that it can cause damage to developing fruit during mid- and late season growth periods and that feeding occurs on all regions of the fruit. feedi ...200919610429
toxicity of insecticides to halyomorpha halys (hemiptera: pentatomidae) using glass-vial bioassays.a scintillation glass-vial bioassay was used to test technical grade insecticides against the non-native stink bug halyomorpha halys (stål). halyomorpha halys (stål) (hemiptera: pentatomidae) is emerging as an important pest in the mid-atlantic states, especially in tree fruits and as a homeowner nuisance during the winter. pyrethroid insecticides, especially bifenthrin, caused mortality against h. halys at low doses, with lc50 values of 0.03-0.49 (microg [ai]/cm2) (mg body mass(-1)). three nico ...200818767758
developmental rate estimation and life table analysis for halyomorpha halys (hemiptera: pentatomidae).egg and nymphal development were studied under constant temperatures for the newly introduced pest species, halyomorpha halys (stål) (hemiptera: pentatomidae). development was assessed at seven constant temperatures (15-35 degrees c). development to adult was completed at temperatures between 17 and 33 degrees c, with egg hatch also occurring at 15 degrees c. the relationship between temperature and developmental rate was evaluated using three developmental models. of the models evaluated, the b ...200818419906
field trapping of the invasive brown marmorated stink bug, halyomorpha halys, with geometric isomers of methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoate.the brown marmorated stink bug, halyomorpha halys (stål), is a polyphagous pest indigenous to northeastern asia where it damages various trees, vegetables, and leguminous crops. the bug was recently introduced into the u.s. and could potentially become a pest. in its native range, h. halys was reportedly attracted to the aggregation pheromone of the brown-winged green bug, plautia stali, methyl (2 e,4 e,6 z)-decatrienoate. we also observed that traps baited with this compound are attractive to h ...200818069789
methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates attract stink bugs and tachinid parasitoids.halyomorpha halys (stål) (pentatomidae), called the brown marmorated stink bug (bmsb), is a newly invasive species in the eastern usa that is rapidly spreading from the original point of establishment in allentown, pa. in its native range, the bmsb is reportedly attracted to methyl (e,e,z)-2,4,6-decatrienoate, the male-produced pheromone of another pentatomid common in eastern asia, plautia stali scott. in north america, thyanta spp. are the only pentatomids known to produce methyl 2,4,6-decatri ...200717334917
effects of photoperiod, temperature and melatonin on nymphal development, polyphenism and reproduction in halyomorpha halys (heteroptera: pentatomidae).influences of photoperiod, temperature and melatonin were examined on development and color patterns of nymphs, and sternum color and reproductive fate of adults in halyomorpha halys (brevis). short-day accelerated nymphal development, whereas long-day accelerated reproductive maturation. the two types of photoperiodic responses at different stages may help maintain the univoltinism of this species in the field, assuring the right timing for diapause and reproduction. the pronotum of fifth insta ...200312951401
properties of a new picorna-like virus of the brown-winged green bug, plautia stalia picorna-like virus was isolated from the brown-winged green bug, plautia stali. the virus was named plautia stali intestine virus (psiv) based on the multiplication site of the virus in the infected insects. psiv is a spherical particle with a diameter of 30 nm. particles of psiv were found to contain a 9.1-kb single-stranded rna. polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of purified psiv particles revealed three major (33, 30, 26 kda), one medium (35 kda), and one minor (4.5 kda) structural proteins ...19989500944
