Abstract

BLETTLER, D.C.; FAGUNDEZ, G.A.  and  CHEMEZ, D.M.. Relevamiento y asignación taxonómica de himenópteros potencialmente polinizadores en un cultivo de soja. RIA. Rev. investig. agropecu. [online]. 2020, vol.46, n.1, pp.25-29. ISSN 1669-2314.

In light of recent research that confirms the contribution of pollinating insects to the yield of soybean, the present work qualitatively and quantitatively evaluates the hymenoptera present in the crop canopy, in order to propose which make up the potentially pollinating complex of this oilseed crop. To do this, insects were captured with an entomological net by sweeping the canopy of a soybean crop at different times of the day and throughout the flowering period. The results showed the Formicidae family as the most numerous hymenoptera group, followed by the Apidae family and five other poorly represented families. It is encouraged to consider the hymenoptera as potential pollinators of soybean in the redefinition of the Economic Damage Thresholds, and the need to extend the sampling to other productive regions and for a greater number of years in order to strengthen conclusions.
