The Potential for Trypsin Inhibitor Expression in Leaves to Convey Herbivory Deterrence in Soybean Open
Soybean (Glycine max) is the most widely grown legume crop in the world, providing important economic value. Pest herbivory damage by insects and mammalian wildlife, in particular the white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), limits yiel…

Influence of planting date, maturity group, and harvest timing on soybean yield and seed quality Open
As in other soybean‐producing regions in the United States, planting date and maturity group (MG) are two of the most important factors, along with variety selection and timely harvest, that can set the stage to optimize soybean yield pote…

Standardized Field Trials in Cotton and Bioassays to Evaluate Resistance of Tobacco Thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) to Insecticides in the Southern United States Open
Foliar-applied insecticide treatments may be necessary to manage thrips in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) under severe infestations or when at-planting insecticide seed treatments do not provide satisfactory protection. The most common fol…

Pest population dynamics are related to a continental overwintering gradient Open
Overwintering success is an important determinant of arthropod populations that must be considered as climate change continues to influence the spatiotemporal population dynamics of agricultural pests. Using a long-term monitoring database…
View article: Effects of plant density, seed spacing, and seed treatment on thrips injury to cotton
Effects of plant density, seed spacing, and seed treatment on thrips injury to cotton Open
Previous observations in small-plot field trials in Tennessee suggest that thrips injury is higher in plots with lower plant densities and when singular plants are spatially isolated and uniformly distributed compared to a group of plants …
