摘要

The stink bug complex is considered one of the most important pests of common bean worldwide. They are responsible for sucking the contents of the beans and act as vectors for pathogens. The study investigates whether Nezara viridula and Piezodorus guildinii transmit Eremothecium sp. to common bean grains. Microscopic examination revealed characteristic features of the microorganism, with the ‘Chévere’ cultivar exhibiting the highest damage. Conversely, P. guildinii did not transmit Eremothecium sp. to any cultivar. Further analysis revealed that 74.17% of N. viridula individuals carried of Eremothecium sp. in contrast to its absence in P. guildinii. These findings emphasize the role of N. viridula in the spread of Eremothecium sp. and highlight potential negative implications for common bean cultivation.
