Crop-Livestock Integration: Attack of Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) on transgenic maize and Bachiaria brizantha (Poaceae)

The Crop-Livestock Integration system has sustainable potential. But pests such as the defoliating caterpillar Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) can reduce productivity of this system. objective was to report transgenic maize and Brachiaria brizantha (A. Rich.) (Poaceae) plants attacked by S. in Feroz VIP3 ® (SYN8A98 TLTG Viptera) B. MG-5 Xaraés were evaluated 20 days after planting, weekly for 28 days. less than those brizantha. negative impact pest on suggests planning adopting strategies its control, use traps, resistant cultivars, biological or chemical products, minimizing losses animal production and, consequently, human food.
