The western corn rootworm (WCR; Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte) is an important chrysomelid pest of corn (Zea mays) in the US. WCR larvae feed on corn roots, while adult beetles may consume aboveground corn tissues. WCR larvae are nutritionally dependent on corn roots; completion of the univoltine WCR lifecycle relies on the nearby availability of root tissues for the larvae. Close access to the host plant is generally secured by strong adult ovipositional fidelity to cornfields. Annual crop rotation between corn and soybean (Glycine max) has been the main strategy for controlling the WCR in the eastern Corn Belt; WCR larvae emerging in rotated soybean fields cannot survive. However, this method selected for a “rotation-resistant” (...
