TI  - Megacopta cribraria (Hemiptera: Plataspidae) Population Dynamics in Soybeans as 
      Influenced by Planting Date, Maturity Group, and Insecticide Use.

AB  - Since its unintentional introduction during 2009, Megacopta cribraria (F.) has 
      spread rapidly throughout the southeastern United States, mainly feeding and 
      reproducing on kudzu, Pueraria montana Loureiro (Merr.) variety lobata 
      (Willdenow), and soybeans, Glycine max (L.) Merr. Megacopta cribraria has become 
      a serious economic pest in soybeans, forcing growers to rely solely on 
      insecticide applications to control this insect. The main objective of this study 
      was to investigate if variation in planting date and maturity group of soybeans 
      had an impact on management of M. cribraria populations. Three experimental 
      fields were located in North Carolina (2) and South Carolina (1), and the tests 
      replicated during 2012 and 2013. Treatments consisted of three planting dates, 
      four maturity groups, and insecticide treated versus untreated, at each location. 
      More M. cribraria were found in untreated early planted soybeans than late 
      planted soybeans. Generally, maturity group did not influence population 
      densities of M. cribraria. Yield was significantly influenced by the interaction 
      between planting date and maturity group. There was a negative linear 
      relationship between M. cribraria populations and soybean yield. Although early 
      planted soybeans may avoid drought conditions and potentially large populations 
      of defoliators, these fields may be at greater risk for infestation by M. 
      cribraria.
