| Abstract
|
:
|
Planthoppers include some of the most devastating pests of major agricultural crops throughout the world. In past decades, government policies encouraged the control of rice planthoppers with synthetic pesticides, a tactic which promoted insecticide resistance and often led to the pesticide-induced resurgence of pest populations.
