Abstract

Description

Entomology Masters student Tyler Fox is conducting a study in East Lansing, Michigan to determine the impact of predators on soybean aphid (SBA) populations. The field was at V4 to V6 at the time the test was initiated on June 26 and held a natural population of SBA ranging from 7 to 141 aphids per soybean tip (emerging leaf buds + first fully opened leaf). Four treatments were established to exclude 1) all predators, 2) no predators (open), 3) ground dwelling predators or 4) foliar predators.
