Soybean vegetative and yield responses to simulated Plathypena scabra (F.) defoliation were investigated in Iowa from 1980 to 1982. Defoliation levels, ranging from 0 to 180 larval equivalents per m of row, were imposed during full bloom to simulate defoliation by first-generation P. scabra . Defoliation produced linear reductions in leaf area, height, and lodging susceptibility. Compensation through lower leaf retention was transitory and limited. Despite >30% defoliation, vegetative and reproductive phenology was not disrupted. Simulated P. scabra defoliation produced significant yield losses, primarily through reduced pod numbers and secondarily through decreased seed weight. The economic injury level for first-generation larvae was established at 23 larval equivalents per m of soybean row. In addition, comprehensive economic injury levels, which reflect rainfall variation, were derived.
