Resumo: | ABSTRACT: Helicoverpa armigera caterpillars are polyphagous and exhibit high migratory potential. Given the traits of this pest, alternative hosts located in or near the crop stand may support the survival and permanence of H. armigera in the field. The aim of this study was to investigate Conyza sp. as a food source for H. armigera caterpillars in scenarios with conventional and Bt soybean. Two experiments were conducted in biochemical oxygen demand incubators. The first assessed consumption of conventional soybean, Bt soybean and Conyza sp. leaves by 3rd and 5th instar caterpillars, with no choice given (no-choice test). The second test evaluated the food preference of 3rd instar H. armigera larvae, with two choices given (dual-choice test). Fifth instar larvae favored Conyza sp. leaves to Bt soybean, but preferred conventional soybean to both of these options. The survival of 3rd instar caterpillars did not differ statistically regardless of the plant species used as a food source. Fifth instar larvae fed Bt soybean exhibited lower survival rates when compared to Conyza sp. and conventional soybean. In dual-choice test arenas, soybean leaf consumption was superior to Conyza sp. Conventional soybean consumption was also greater when offered in conjunction with Bt soybean. Caterpillars offered Conyza sp. and Bt soybean leaves only consumed the weed species. Conyza sp. plants can serve as a food source for H. armigera larvae, which showed a preference for Conyza sp. leaves to Bt soybean.
