Densities of these soil homopterans also increased in response to mowing of vegetation. Spring burning of vegetation to enhance grass production did not have a strong affect on total populations. Resource abundance of cool season grasses, as mediated by competition from other herbivores, best explain these patterns</p>10atallgrass prairie1 aSeastedt, T.R.1 aReddy, V.M.  uhttp://129.130.186.12/content/fire-mowing-and-insecticide-effects-soil-sternorrhyncha-homoptera-densities-tallgrass
