Population studies of the potato leafhopper, Empoasca fabae (Harris), on alfalfa, Medicago sativa L.
The potato leafhopper, Empoasca fabae (Harris), is a primary pest of alfalfa grown in Virginia. Sampling techniques and sampling programs for each growth stage (egg, nymph, and adult) were developed to study the population dynamics of this insect. Distribution patterns exhibited by each stage have …
