Genus-level evidence
2 claims where the source named the organism only at the genus or collective level (e.g. Cerotoma sp.) and did not determine the species. Listed separately because they apply to the genus, not specifically to Cerotoma trifurcata.
- herbivory · Cerotoma spp. → Glycine max · effect: harmful
“foliage- and pod-feeding arthropods on soybean”
- herbivory · Cerotoma spp. → Glycine max · effect: harmful
“20 beetles/row m + 15% defoliation; 20-25 beetles/row m = 8-12% pod injury”
