economic importance

Notes: Here we quantified the relationship between C. pseudomagnoliarum density and Valencia orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) yield and sooty mold contamination to inform pest action thresholds. Two field experiments documented significant effects of adult or nymphal C. pseudomagnoliarum densities on fruit yield and sooty mold.
