Influence of Weed Manipulation in Field Borders on Brown Stink Bug (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) Densities and Damage in Field Corn
Environmental Entomology, 48(2), 444–453.
author keywords: Euschistus servus; ecology; movement; mowing; farmscape
MeSH headings : Animals; Heteroptera; Insect Control / methods; Plant Weeds; Population Density; Population Dynamics; Soybeans; Weed Control; Zea mays
TL;DR:
To reduce densities of E. servus in corn by manipulating the weedy field borders with mowing and applications of dicamba herbicide, manipulations of weeds did not lead to any significant changes in density, and evidence suggested that a prominent external source of E.'s servus, other than field-bordering weeds, in the farmscape was likely driving densities in corn.
