| The spittlebug (Mahanarva fimbriolata) has become a key pest of the sugarcane crop in Brazil with the increase of green-cane harvesting, causing stalk yield and cane quality losses. This research was undertaken to evaluate the effects of the spittlebug (Mahanarva fimbriolata) on cane quality and juice fermentation. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized 5 × 2 factorial design, with five spittlebug infestation levels (0-0.5; 0.6-2.5; 2.6-5; 5.1-8; 8.1-12.5 nymphs m-1), controlled or not with thiamethoxam (0.2 kg of active ingredient ha-1). To conduct fermentation, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (fresh and pressed baker's yeast) was inoculated to musts at a concentration of 30 g L-1. Microbiological analyses were performed at the beginning, middle... |
