| sampling stink bugs (hemiptera: pentatomidae) for population estimation and pest management in southeastern cotton production. | stink bugs (hemiptera: pentatomidae) were sampled in commercial cotton, gossypium hirsutum l., fields in 2007 and 2008 in south carolina and georgia. the main species collected with the beat cloth and sweep net methods were green stink bug, acrosternum hilare (say) (63 and 57%, respectively); brown stink bug, euschistus servus (say) (23 and 18%, respectively); and southern green stink bug, nezara viridula (l.) (14 and 22%, respectively). average stink bug densities were 0.145 +/- 0.010 (mean +/- ... | 2009 | 20069868 |
| spatial dynamics of stink bugs (hemiptera: pentatomidae) and associated boll injury in southeastern cotton fields. | grid sampling (one sample per 0.40 ha) in 12 cotton (gossypium hirsutum l.) fields for stink bugs and boll injury caused by stink bug feeding was conducted in 2007 and 2008 in south carolina and georgia. the main species collected using the beat cloth method were the green stink bug, acrosternum hilare (say) (69%); brown stink bug, euschistus servus (say) (18%); and the southern green stink bug, nezara viridula (l.) (14%), respectively. the inverted distance weighted interpolation method and spa ... | 2010 | 20550811 |
