The complex of cruciferous bugs includes such species as painted or harlequin (cabbage) bug (Eurydema ventralis Kol), pentatomid rape bug (E. oleraracea L.), and mustard bug (E. ornata L.). They belong to a line Hemiptera, the family Shield bugs (Pentatomidae), and the genus Cruciferous bugs (Eurydema). The dominant species is the cabbage bug. The mustard bug dominated only in 2007, and since 2012 it has not been detected in the records. They are widespread throughout the whole territory of Ukraine. Both adult bugs and larvae cause damage to the crops; they pierce the leaf skin or floriferous shoots with the proboscis and suck out the juice. The light spots appear at the puncture points, the tissue dies, falls out, and the holes of the irregular form are formed. When the seeds are damaged, the flowers and ovary fall off, and the quality of the seeds deteriorates. The harmfulness of the bugs increases dramatically in dry and hot weather.
It is established that the weight of 1000 seeds of spring rape damaged by the cruciferous bugs is 36.27-53.52% less than that of the undamaged ones; for white mustard, these figures are 33.05-33.48%, and the weight of 1000 seeds of white cabbage damaged by the cruciferous bugs is 30.48-30.83 % less than the weight of the undamaged ones. The germination rate of the damaged spring rape seeds is 5.7-9.4% lower than that of the undamaged ones, the germination rate of white mustard is lower by 10.6%, and the germination rate of white cabbage seeds is lower by 37.1-38.1%. The oil content in the damaged seeds of spring rape is reduced by 14.45% on average, and the estimated oil yield at an average yield capacity of 0.495 t/ha is 0.071 t/ha lower.
Key words: spring rape, mustard, pests, harmfulness, cruciferous bugs.
Introduction
The complex of cruciferous bugs includes such species as painted or harlequin (cabbage) bug (Eurydema ventralis Kol), pentatomid rape bug (E. oleraracea L.), and mustard bug (E. ornata L.). They belong to a line Hemiptera, the family Shield bugs (Pentatomidae), and the genus Cruciferous bugs (Eurydema). The cruciferous bugs are a common species and are spread throughout the Palaearctic. They are widespread throughout the whole territory of Ukraine (Puchkov, 1961; Yevtushenko, Vilna, Stankevych, 2016).
The imago of the cabbage bug is 6-10 mm long; its body is flattened, the prothorax is red with six black spots, on the shield and elytra there are black spots and stripes (Figure 1); the antennae are 5-segmented; a triangle scutellum covers a larger part of the abdomen, the legs are 3-segmented. The imago of the mustard bug is 6-10 mm in size; the body is flattened, the prothorax is yellow with six black spots, on the shield and elytra, there are black spots and stripes (Figure 1). The imago of the rape bug is 6-10 mm in size; the body is flattened, the prothorax is white with six black spots; on the shield and elytra, there are black spots and stripes (Figure 1). The egg is 0.6-0.8 mm in size, cylindrical; the bottom is rounded, the top is covered by a convex lid that opens when the larvae hatch (Figure 1). The larva of the imago is similar (Figure 1). The immature bugs overwinter under the fallen leaves at the edge of forest belts, in gardens and parks, on the beams slopes and roadsides. In April and May, they leave the wintering places. Besides, they feed on the cabbage weeds, and with the emergence of the cultivated cabbage plants, sprouts, and seedlings transplanting, the bugs' mass flies over to them. The female lays 12 eggs in a group, placing them in two rows, more often on the underside of the leaves. The fertility is up to 300 eggs. The embryonic development lasts for 6-12 days. The larvae feed on the plants for 25-40 days turning into an adult insect. After the extra feeding, the bugs give birth to the second generation, which develops in July and August. Both the adult bugs and larvae cause damage to the crops; they pierce the leaf skin or floriferous shoots with the proboscis and suck out the juice. The light spots appear at the puncture points, the
tissue dies, falls out, and the irregular form holes are formed. When the seeds are damaged, the flowers and ovary fall off, and the seeds' quality deteriorates. The economic threshold of harmfulness is 2-3 bugs per plant (Belyaev et al., 2017; Puchkov, 1961; Yevtushenko et al., 2009; Stankevych, Vilna, 2012; Vilna, 2013; Vilna, Stankevych, 2013; Stankevych, Kava, 2013; Yevtushenko, Vilna, 2014; Vilna et al., 2015; Stankevych, 2015; Yevtushenko et al., 2016).

Dokuchaiev, 2018)
Materials and methods
The development of the cruciferous bugs was observed in the entomological insulators (sweep nets) made from agricultural fiber. The pests were counted according to the generally accepted method (Omeliuta, 1986; Stankevych, Zabrodina, 2016). The correlation analysis and the analysis of variance (Dospiekhov, 1985) were performed.
The influence of the cabbage crops seeds damaged by the cruciferous bugs on the sowing quality of the seeds was determined following the State Standard of Ukraine 4138-2002 (National Standard, 2003) at the laboratory of the Zoology and Entomology Department of Kharkiv National Agrarian University named after V.V. Dokuchaiev and at the Educational and Scientific Centre of the Soil Science and Agro-Chemistry Institute named after O.N. Sokolovskyi of the National Academy of Agrarian Sciences of Ukraine. For this purpose, under the laboratory conditions, the seed material was placed in Petri dishes (100 seeds of each variant) at a temperature of 20 °C, the seeds were moistened daily to maintain a constant humidity level. The seed germination indices were recorded on the 3rd, 5th, 7th' and 9th days.
The biochemical analysis of the purified seeds as for the fat and protein content was carried out according to Kjeldahl and Rushkovskyi (Kostromitin, 1975) laboratory at the laboratory of the Seed Quality of the Plant Growing Institute named after V.Ya. Yuriev.
Results and discussion
In 2012 after harvesting the crops of spring rape of Ataman variety, we cleaned the crops and thoroughly analyzed them. With the help of the binocular, the seeds of spring rape damaged by the bugs, and the healthy seeds without any signs of damage were selected. Under the laboratory conditions, the weight of 1000 undamaged and damaged seeds was determined. From the data given in Table 1, the weight of 1000 healthy seeds is 2.6996 g., and that of the damaged ones is 1.4454 g. Thus the mass of 1000 seeds damaged by a sucking mouthpart of the bugs is reduced by 46.5% compared to the undamaged seeds; that is, it is reduced almost two times.

From the data given in Table 2, the undamaged seeds of spring rape contain 35.92% of fat, and the damaged ones contain 27.98% of fat, which is 1.3 times less. The protein content in the undamaged seeds was 30.97%, and in the damaged ones, it was 30.44%, which is only 0.53% less. The biochemical analysis data indicate that the damage caused by the cruciferous bugs significantly reduces the fat content in the seeds.
As a result of the germination of spring rape seeds under laboratory conditions, the damage caused by the cruciferous bugs on the laboratory germination rate of seeds has been established. From Table 2, it is seen that on the first day after sowing, no germination was observed in either of the variants. On the second day, the germination rate of the undamaged seeds was 6.3%, and that of the damaged seeds was 4.0%. On the third day, the germination rate of the undamaged seeds of spring rape was 74.2%, and that of the damaged seeds was 57.6%.
On the fourth day after sowing, the seed germination rate of the undamaged seeds was 86.0%, and that of the damaged seeds was 75.5%. On the fifth day after sowing, the seed germination rate of the undamaged seeds was 87.3%, and that of the damaged seeds was 77.3%. On the sixth day after sowing, the seed germination rate of the undamaged seeds was 89.3% vs. 79.5% as for the damaged ones. On the seventh day after sowing the laboratory, the germination rate of the undamaged seeds of spring rape was 90.0%, and that of the damaged ones was 81.0%. The final germination rate of spring rape seeds under the laboratory conditions was recorded on the eighth day, as no further germinated seeds were observed. The final germination rate of the undamaged spring rape seeds was 90.0%, and that of the damaged seeds was 84.3% (Fig. 2).

The weight of 1000 yielded spring rape seeds of Ataman variety undamaged by the bugs amounted to 3.2161 g, and the weight of the damaged seeds amounted to 1.2313 g, which is 2.6 times less. The weight of 1000 undamaged seeds of white mustard of Carolina variety was 3.9911 g, and that of white cabbage of Kharkivska 105 variety was 5.2099 g, and the weights of the damaged seeds were 1.3194 g and 1.6067 g, or 3.0 and 3.2 times less. The undamaged seeds of spring rape have an oil content of 47.84%, and the damaged seeds have an oil content of 26,93%, which is 1,8 times less. The protein content in the undamaged seeds is 14.66%, while in the damaged, it is 31.44%. The undamaged seeds of white mustard contain 20.57% of oil, and the damaged ones contain 18.77% or 0.1 times less. The protein content in the undamaged seeds is 3.91 %, and in the damaged, it is 36.39%. In the undamaged seeds of white cabbage, the oil content amounts to 37.44%, and in the damaged, it is 15.72%, which is almost 2.4 times less. The protein content in the undamaged seeds is 31.03%, and in the damaged, it is 38%. The biochemical analysis data shows that the damage to the seeds caused by the cruciferous bugs in 2013 also caused a decrease in the oil content in it and an increase in the protein content in the seeds of spring rape and white cabbage. As a result of the spring rape seeds germination under the laboratory conditions, the influence of damage to seeds caused by the cruciferous bugs on the laboratory germination rate was established (Table 4).

On the seventh day after sowing the laboratory, the germination rate of the undamaged cabbage seeds was 92.7%, and that of the damaged ones was 52.2%. The final germination rate of the cabbage seeds under the laboratory conditions was recorded on the eighth day as no further germinated seeds were observed. The final germination rate of the undamaged white cabbage seeds was 93.9%, and that of the damaged seeds was 55.8% (Fig. 8).

Conclusions
The cruciferous bugs (Eurydema spp.) are a counterpart of the complex of the main pests of the cabbage crops generative organs in the Eastern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. three species present the cruciferous bugs: painted or harlequin (cabbage) bug (Eurydema ventralis Kol), pentatomid rape bug (E oleraracea L.) and mustard bug (E. ornata L.).
The weight of 1000 seeds of spring rape damaged by the cruciferous bugs is 36.27-53.52% less than that of the undamaged ones; for white mustard, these figures are 33.05-33.48%, and the weight of 1000 seeds of white cabbage damaged by the cruciferous bugs is 30.48-30.83 % less than the weight of the undamaged ones.
The germination rate of the damaged spring rape seeds is 5.7-9.4% lower than that of the undamaged ones, the germination rate of white mustard is lower by 10,6%, and the germination rate of white cabbage seeds is lower by 37.1 -38.1 %. The oil content in the damaged seeds of spring rape is reduced by 14.45% on average, and the estimated oil yield at an average yield capacity of 0.495 t/ha is 0.071 t/ha lower.
