This poster will show the field performance of foliar insecticides against tobacco thrips in seedling cotton, primarily in Tennessee, which indicates potential resistance to acephate. In support, a preliminary summary of screening for acephate resistance in populations of tobacco thrips will be shown for populations collected across the mid-southern and southeastern during 2018 and 2019.
