Antibiosis to Spittlebugs (Homoptera: Cercopidae) in Accessions of Brachiaria spp.
High levels of antibiotic resistance to the cercopid Aeneolamia varia (F.) were identified in accessions of the forage grass Brachiaria by means of a glasshouse bioassay. Emergence of adults from pots of Brachiaria spp. infested with eggs of A. varia ranged from 55 to 83% and 56 to 80% on susceptibl...
