• Crop losses and the economic impact of insect pests on Brazilian agriculture (2014, background): “A good example is the recent outbreak of caterpillars of the Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) in soybean and cotton crops in Bahia, Goiás and Mato Grosso states (Czepak et al., 2013), which was estimated to have caused losses of approximately US$ 500 million for the 2012/2013 crop (SEAGRI, 2013).”
• Biological Control in Brazil: an overview (2014, background): “The recent introduction of H. armigera into the country (Czepak et al., 2013) may be a landmark in the history of BC, as there is no chemical available for its control.”
