Plots comprised 2 m2 caged and uncaged sugarcane stalks. Compared with the caged (un-infested) control, spittlebug nymphs decreased cane yield by 17.6%, whereas infestation from spittlebug nymphs + sugarcane borer combined and sugarcane borer alone, decreased cane yields by 15.5% and 6.9%, respectively. There was no significant difference among the treatments in levels of soluble solids and cane sucrose content.453-455engInsect-plant relationshipSpittlebugSugarcane borerYieldTrabalho apresentado em evento2-s2.0-79959753226
