Brief Project Summary:

This project aims to monitor stink bug field populations to time scouting alerts for growers and to provide information about the distribution of different stink bug species in Ohio. It also intends to develop an assay to test for stink bug insecticide resistance, an increasing problem. Research plans to determine how pheromone-baited sticky cards can be used as a monitoring tool for stink bugs in soybean to make stink bug scouting easier and more efficient. It also should determine whether a new soybean aphid biotype is capable of overcoming new the new triple-stack anti-aphid soybean varieties.
