“…In our study, 25‐day‐old female bean bugs were tested. Maharjan and Jung () found that R. pedestris of this age have higher dispersal capacity. Those abilities, together with the avoidance behaviors seen in our study, suggest that before approaching host‐plants, bean bugs analyze olfactory cues and hence should be able to detect and avoid residues of some insecticides.…”

Bean bug, Riptortus pedestris (Fabricius) (Heteroptera: Alydidae), is an economically important pest of soybean and tree fruit. Behavioral responses of R. pedestris to olfactory cues from insecticide‐treated foliage were assessed in a Y‐tube olfactometer. Ten insecticides were applied to kidney bean plants at the recommended dosage, and then bug avoidance was assessed at 0, 3, 5, 7 and 13 days after treatment (DAT). Each bug was allowed 5 min to choose one of the olfactometer's arms. Even though the degree of avoidance was variable to the insecticides tested, bean bugs significantly avoided the insecticide‐treated leaf. The pyrethroid bifenthrin was the most avoided of the insecticides tested. In all treatments, avoidance decreased as DAT increased. Also, the movement speed was higher to the untreated leaf than to the insecticide‐treated leaf. The degree of avoidance was positively correlated to the vapor pressure of the chemical; this finding implies the interaction of the treated chemicals and plant volatiles may be used as cues for bean bug selection of the host‐plant.

“…For soybean, several species of Riptortus spp. have been known as important pests that cause serious damage and yield losses (Maharjan and Jung 2009;Lee et al 2009;Li et al 2021). Insects that have similar shape to stink bugs are known as pod suckers and considered economically important pests of soybean (Kang et al 2003).…”

“…Riptortus clavatus (Thunberg) (Hemiptera: Alydidae) is reported to be a very detrimental pest, causing 89-91% seed injury (Jung et al 2005) and difficult to control with insecticides (Maharjan and Jung 2009). This species has the ability to "avoid" insecticide application.…”

“…Usually insects quickly move around and stay away from the planted area when spraying with insecticides, but can quickly return and infest the area around the crop. R. clavatus is reported to have the ability to fly long distances, reaching a distance of 1.6-5.1 km with a speed of up to 0.8 m per second (Maharjan and Jung 2009). Several control efforts have also been reported, including using pheromone traps (Huh et al 2005), exploiting natural enemies (Son et al 2008), and using trap plants (Youn and Jung 2008).…”

Increasing productivity of soybean has often been constrained by pod sucking bugs (Riptortus spp.) which caused a serious damage and yield losses up to 80%. Breeding for obtaining soybean variety resistant to pod suckers needs the availability of soybean germplasm resistant to the pest. The study aimed to obtain a candidate for soybean variety resistant to Riptortus spp. through the selection of 100 accessions of soybean. The study included the preparation of test plants and test insects, pest infestations, observations, and looking for a practical screening method for pod sucking pests. The experiment used a completely randomized design for two treatments (infested and non-infested Riptortus spp.). Cikuray variety and PI-092734 accession were used as a control. Results showed that there was a very low correlation among variables observed. Twelve soybean accessions showed a resistance to Riptortus spp., i.e. C7301-113AC-POP, Lokal Madiun-3549, Lokal Klungkung, ML.2974, Singgalang, Lokal Jepara, Lokal Jatim, Lokal Trenggalek, Lokal Tulungagung, Lokal Tabanan, Lokal Blitar, and Lokal Kuningan 10. These accessions were more resistant than the popular released variety such as Wilis, Grobogan, Detam 2, and Gepak Ijo. Small seed size was not a major determinant of soybean resistance to pod suckers. The addition of observational components, i.e. probing preference and oviposition, indicated that crop damage was indirectly influenced by the high frequency of probing and oviposition, although its relation to plant tolerant mechanisms still needs further investigation. Indeterminate plant types require further validation as to whether they contribute significantly to plant resistance against pod sucking insects.
