Prosapia simulans (Walker) es una especie de salivazo que ataca los pastos del género Brachiaria (Trin.) Griseb. desde México hasta Colombia y ocasiona pérdidas económicas a la industria ganadera. El desarrollo de cultivares resistentes es considerado el mejor método de control del salivazo. Este...

Both nymphal and adult spittlebugs (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) cause serious economic damage to susceptible brachiariagrass [genus Biachiaria (Trin.) Griseb], pastures in tropical America. Both life stages are xylem feeders: nymphs feed primarily on roots and stems, whereas the adults feed mainly on ...

Independence of Resistance in Brachiaria spp. to Nymphs or to Adult Spittlebugs (Hemiptera: Cercopidae): Implications for Breeding for Resistance
Spittlebugs (Homoptera: Cercopidae) are important pests of forage grasses in the genus Brachiaria (Trin.) Griseb. throughout the neotropics. Results of recurrent selection on resistance to spittlebugs in a synthetic brachiariagrass population are reported. The population was synthesized by recomb...

Recurrent selection in a synthetic brachiariagrass population improves resistance to three spittlebug species
Several species and genera of spittlebugs (Homoptera: Cercopidae) are economic pests of grasses in tropical America. They have the potential to cause serious losses on millions of hectares of improved pastures based on cultivars of several species of Brachiaria. Most of the available commercial c...
