Soybean leaf age and plant stage influence expression of resistance to velvetbean caterpillar and fall armyworm [PDF]
Numerous species of herbivorous insects are associated with soybeans, including the specialist velvetbean caterpillar (VBC), Anticarsia gemmatalis, and the generalist fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda.

Sugar-Feeding Strategy of Adult Velvetbean Caterpillar (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
Although nectar availability has long been recognized as the major cause of outbreaks of some important lepidopteran pests, basic knowledge on nectar feeding by adults of any single noctuid species is very limited. Understanding of adult feeding behavior
