description Bean Leaf Beetle Overview
The bean leaf beetle (Cerotoma trifurcata) is a leaf beetle in the family Chrysomelidae native to North America and one of the most significant insect pests of soybean crops in the United States. Adults chew round holes in leaves and scar developing pods, while larvae feed on roots and nitrogen-fixing root nodules underground. The beetle is also an important vector of bean pod mottle virus, which further reduces yield and seed quality, making it a persistent concern for soybean growers.
