Reproductive strategy of overwintering Dalbulus maidis (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) in subtropical areas: neither temperature nor photoperiod, only corn triggers oviposition

BACKGROUND: The corn leafhopper Dalbulus maidis, a key vector of corn stunt disease, poses a major threat to corn production across the Americas. In subtropical South America, females overwinter as active adults despite the absence of host plants. This study explored, for the first time, the reprodu...
