Banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar) is one of the major constraints to banana production in Uganda. A field screening experimentwas undertaken at Kawanda to determine the response of 18 hybrids to the banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar).Based on total cross-sectional damage, results indicated that there was improved resistance to ...

Trapping the banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus, Germar: a mathematical perspective
Paper presented at the 5th Strathmore International Mathematics Conference (SIMC 2019), 12 - 16 August 2019, Strathmore University, Nairobi, Kenya A logistic equation incorporating trapping is formulated and parameterized to represent the population dynamics of the banana weevil, Cosmopolites Sordidus, (Germar). The steady states are obtained and their
