Brief Project Summary:

This project continues to address the emerging concern that Phytophagous stink bugs may be causing economic loss to Maryland soybean production. The researchers will establish simulated field infections of stink bugs to relate the density per foot row to sweep counts. The ultimate goal of the study is to develop information required for control of late-season infestations of stink bugs.
