The possible role of HCN in the biology and feeding behavior of the cassava burrowing bug (Cyrtomenus bergi Froeschner: Cydnidae: Hemiptera)
The burrowing bug, C. bergi (Hymenopetra: Cydnidae) was first recorded as a cassava pest in Valle, Colombia, in 1979. Nymphs and adults of this subterranean sucking insect feed on cassava roots by means of a thin, strong stylet. As it feeds, it inoculates the roots with soil-borne pathogens such as...
