مستخلص: The tarnished plant bug (TPB) is a major pest of cotton throughout the midsouthern region of the United States. Research was conducted during the squaring period from 2006 to 2008 in all 5 states of the Midsouth to evaluate thresholds in the current production environment. These data show that costs associated with TPB are minimized when average TPB density is 8 per 100 sweeps and when average square retention is 90%. Existing thresholds of 8 TPB per 100 sweeps and square retention of 80% are supported by these data and should be retained. More aggressive management resulted in both reduced yield and higher control costs and should be avoided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
