VOL. 36, NO. 2 SOUTHWESTERN ENTOMOLOGIST JUN. 2011 SCIENTIFIC NOTE First Records of Piezodorus guildinii1 in Missouri Kelly V. Tindall2 and Kent Fothergill2,3 Redbanded stink bug, Piezodorus guildinii (Westwood), is an important pest of soybean, Glycine max L., in South America (Panizzi and Slansky 1985b, Arroyo and Kawamura 2003) and Louisiana (Paxton et al. 2007). The ability to utilize numerous host plants (Panizzi and Slansky 1985b, Panizzi 1997) allows early season reproduction before redbanded stink bug moves into soybeans at the preferred stage of plant growth. Seed quality and yield are reduced because redbanded stink bug prefer to feed on fruiting structures (Panizzi and Slansky 1985a, Corrêa-Ferreira and de Azevedo 2002). Application of insecticide to protect soybean yield can reduce grower profits (Paxton et al. 2007) The redbanded stink bug has been found in Florida (Panizzi and Slansky 1985b) and Georgia (McPherson et al. 1993). In 2000, redbanded stink bug was observed in south-central Louisiana (Temple et al. 2007). By 2004, redbanded stink bug had increased to outbreak levels across the south-central parishes and reached the northeastern corner of Louisiana. In 2005, redbanded stink bugs were documented in Arkansas and continue to be found in southern Arkansas soybeans (Smith et al. 2009). In 2009, redbanded stink bug was found during surveys of late-planted fields RI µR6-7¶ (Fehr et al. 1971) soybeans in Dunklin and New Madrid counties, MO (Table 1). These occurrences were the first records of redbanded stink bug in Missouri. Soybean field locations were determined using a Garmin eTrex GPS (Garmin Ltd., Olathe, KS). Sixteen fields in six southeastern Missouri counties were surveyed by sweep net (200 sweeps per field) for late-season stink bugs. Adult stink bugs with the exception of redbanded stink bug were identified using McPherson (1982). J. E. McPherson (personal communication) confirmed the identification of the redbanded stink bug adults. The few stink bug nymphs encountered were not identified or counted. Table 1.

The most common adult stink bug encountered during surveys was green stink bug, Acrosternum hilare (Say) (n = 13). Brown stink bug, Euschistus servus (Say) (n = 8), spined soldier bug, Podisus maculiventris (Say) (n = 7), redshouldered stink bug, Thyanta accerra McAtee (n = 3), dusky stink bug, Euschistus tristigmus (Say) (n = 2), and rough stink bug, Brochymena quadripustulata (F.) (n = 1) were also encountered. Costa and Link (1982) found: redbanded stink bugs are more mobile than southern green stink bug, Nezara viridula (L.); redbanded stink bug females disperse more than males and wind can influence their dispersal. Records of southern green stink bug in southern Illinois (McPherson 1982) demonstrate dispersal of southern green stink bug as a stray beyond its normal range in the southern United States. Possible resident populations of southern green stink bug and redbanded stink bug occur in southeastern Arkansas (Smith et al. 2009), coupled with the dispersal ability of redbanded stink bug, suggest the detection of redbanded stink bug in Missouri may be more frequent than is detection of southern green stink bug. The winter of 2009-2010 was colder than normal in Jonesboro, AR (Table 2), especially in February, when the average minimum temperature was -2.8oC (NOAA 2010, Weather Underground 2010). The winters of 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 in Jonesboro were warmer than normal. Jonesboro was chosen as the northern edge of the area most likely to be a source of redbanded stink bug for southeastern Missouri. It is possible that winter temperatures in the area could be a predictor for dispersal into Missouri. No redbanded stink bug was found in Missouri in 2010. It is anticipated that southeastern Missouri could host irruptive populations in the future. There is much to be learned about redbanded stink bug within the Mississippi Delta region including: overwintering biology, early season hosts, and interactions with soybeans and their attendant fauna.

  • Discrimination Between Eggs from Stink Bugs Species in Europe Using MALDI-TOF MS
    insects Article Discrimination between Eggs from Stink Bugs Species in Europe Using MALDI-TOF MS Michael A. Reeve 1,* and Tim Haye 2 1 CABI, Bakeham Lane, Egham, Surrey TW20 9TY, UK 2 CABI, Rue des Grillons 1, CH-2800 Delémont, Switzerland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Recent globalization of trade and travel has led to the introduction of exotic insects into Europe, including the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys)—a highly polyphagous pest with more than 200 host plants, including many agricultural crops. Unfortunately, farmers and crop-protection advisers finding egg masses of stink bugs during crop scouting frequently struggle to identify correctly the species based on their egg masses, and easily confuse eggs of the invasive H. halys with those of other (native) species. To this end, we have investigated using matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) for rapid, fieldwork-compatible, and low-reagent-cost discrimination between the eggs of native and exotic stink bugs. Abstract: In the current paper, we used a method based on stink bug egg-protein immobilization on filter paper by drying, followed by post-(storage and shipping) extraction in acidified acetonitrile containing matrix, to discriminate between nine different species using MALDI-TOF MS. We obtained 87 correct species-identifications in 87 blind tests using this method. With further processing of the unblinded data, the highest average Bruker score for each tested species was that of the cognate Citation: Reeve, M.A.; Haye, T. reference species, and the observed differences in average Bruker scores were generally large and the Discrimination between Eggs from errors small except for Capocoris fuscispinus, Dolycoris baccarum, and Graphosoma italicum, where the Stink Bugs Species in Europe Using average scores were lower and the errors higher relative to the remaining comparisons.

Caixa Postal 451. 990012-970, Passo Fundo, RS, Brazil *Corresponding author; E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The effect of photoperiod and temperature on Piezodorus guildinii (Westwood) adult body morphometry, color, lipid content, development of reproductive organs, and feeding activity at different ages was studied in the laboratory. Three different conditions were tested, each at 80 ± 10% RH: 14:10 h L:D at 25 °C, 10:14 h L:D at 25 °C, and 10:14 h L:D at 20 °C. Adults at 25 °C under 14 h photophase were larger and exhibited lower lipid content than those held at 20 °C under 10 h photophase. Highest percentages of females with clear pronotum band and connexivum were recorded at 10 h photophase regardless of the temperature. Development of the ovary was affected by both photoperiod and temperature. At 15, 30 and 45 days of age under 14 h photophase at 25 °C, the percentage of females with immature ovaries remained constant at 0%; in contrast, at 10 h (20 °C) this percentage declined from 60 to 33%. Testes size was affected by photoperiod and temperature; males at 14 h (25 °C) and at 10 h (20 °C) showed the largest and the smallest testes, respectively. The ectodermal sac condition was affected starting with males 15 days of age; the percentage of males with an expanded ectodermal sac was greater under the 14 h (25 °C) treatment than under the 10 h (20 °C) treatment.

  • Egg Parasitoids of Stink Bugs (Hemiptera: Coreidae and Pentatomidae) on Soybean and Cowpea in Brazil Antonio De Almeida Paz-Neto1, Ranyse B
    Egg parasitoids of stink bugs (Hemiptera: Coreidae and Pentatomidae) on soybean and cowpea in Brazil Antonio de Almeida Paz-Neto1, Ranyse B. Querino2,*, and Cecilia B. Margaría3 Abstract Parasitoids naturally attacking stink bug (Hemiptera: Coreidae and Pentatomidae) eggs and interactions with their hosts were recorded on soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merril; Fabales: Fabaceae) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.; Fabales: Fabaceae) host plants in Brazil. Egg masses of stink bugs collected from plant structures were observed daily until emergence of either parasitoids or bugs. Stink bugs were parasitized by 8 species of egg parasitoids: Trissolcus urichi Crawford, Trissolcus teretis Johnson, Trissolcus bodkini Crawford, Telenomus podisi Ashmead, Phanuropsis semiflaviven- tris Girault (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae), Neorileya flavipes Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae), Ooencyrtus anasae (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae), andAnastatus sp. (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae). Trissolcus urichi, Te. podisi, O. anasae, and N. flavipes parasitized eggs of 2 or more spe- cies of stink bugs, andTr. urichi and Te. podisi were the most generalist. Phanuropsis semiflaviventris, Tr. teretis, Tr. bodkini, and Anastatus sp. showed specialist behavior, because each of them parasitized only 1 species of stink bug.

  • Role of the Rutin and Genistein Flavonoids in Soybean Resistance to Piezodorus Guildinii (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)
    Arthropod-Plant Interactions (2018) 12:311–320 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11829-017-9578-5 ORIGINAL PAPER Role of the Rutin and Genistein Flavonoids in Soybean Resistance to Piezodorus guildinii (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) José P. F. Bentivenha1 · Vinícius F. Canassa2 · Edson L. L. Baldin2 · Milena G. Borguini3 · Giuseppina P. P. Lima3 · André L. Lourenção4 Received: 15 November 2016 / Accepted: 21 October 2017 / Published online: 20 November 2017 © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2017 Abstract The stink bug complex includes some of the most important soybean pests worldwide. Among these insects, Piezodorus guil- dinii (Westwood) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) is known for the severe damage it can cause and for its resistance to chemical management. Host plant resistance is considered as an important tool in the management of these pests. In particular, plant favonoids, such as genistein and rutin, have been identifed as compounds that might negatively afect the development of some pests; however, the efects of these compounds on some stink bug species are still unclear. We tested the resistance of soybean genotypes by evaluating the growth and survival of P. guildinii under laboratory conditions. In addition, the amounts of genistein and rutin were quantifed in both infested and non-infested genotypes. The PI 274453, PI 274454, PI 227687, PI 229358, ‘IAC 100′, and ‘IAC 19′ genotypes showed antibiosis to P. guildinii. The genistein and rutin favonoids appear to play a role in the resistance of these genotypes against P. guildinii; specifcally, PI 274453, PI 274454, and ‘IAC 100′ showed induced resistance against the insect. Other defence mechanisms or favonoids might be involved in resistance in the L1-1-01 and PI 171451 genotypes.

A B S T R A C T The population density of pentatomid bugs was worked out in major vegetable growing belts of Kashmir valley during the cropping season of 2013-14. For the study of population densities field observations of two common species of Pentatomid bugs were carried out. The species namely Eurydema pulchrum and Dolycoris indicus were found in highest numbers from two selected districts of Kashmir Viz., Srinagar and Budgam. The number of individuals of specified species collected in different seasons, months and weeks at a site in district Srinagar (Batapora) indicate that the highest population density of the species was in the summer season while it was very low in spring and autumn season. Flight activity of the pentatomid pests varies with species, seasons and the site. The maximum flight activity was observed in early summer and in late summer. The flight activity continued until November depending upon the temperature nonetheless during this month, flights were usually of very low incidence. The flight activity of plant bugs stopped altogether during winter months in Kashmir valley. Based on these studies, the agricultural crops could be saved from bug attack by timely intervention and application of suitable management tactics to reduce their populations below economic injury level.

This pest is southeastern United States (Figure 1). The redbanded stink present in both Central and South America and has caused bug feeds on many leguminous plants including several major economic damage throughout South America. In economically important crops such as beans, peas, alfalfa, Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina, the redbanded stink bug and lentils. In South America, the redbanded stink bug is one of the most prevalent pests of soybean (Akin et al. has become one of the most significant pests of soybean, 2011). The redbanded stink bug was first reported in the Glycine max (Smaniotto and Panizzi 2015). United States in the early 1970s but the time of its arrival in North America is still unclear (Panizzi 2005). It is currently found from Argentina to the southern United States and it was not until 2002 that the redbanded stink bug was considered a major economic pest in the US (Husseneder et al. 2016). As of 2016, the redbanded stink bug has been recorded in several southern states including Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, South Carolina, and Texas (Temple et al. 2013).
