Development, Survival and Reproduction of (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in Sesame Cultivars and Implications for the Management.

Sesame, an oilseed plant with multiple applications, is susceptible to infestations by the stink bug (Linnaeus, 1758) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae). This pest suctions the seeds of this plant and injects toxins into them. Possible sources of resistance on sesame cultivars are important to manage this bug.
