Influence of winter savory (Satureja montana) aqueous extract on mortality of lesser grain borer (Rhyzopertha dominica) [PDF]

Botanica Serbica, 2018
Losses of grain quality and quantity as a result of insect activity during storage impose the need for proper pest control. One of the major pests of stored wheat is the lesser grain borer (LGB), Rhyzopertha dominica. This pest is usually controlled with

Detection of Phosphine Resistance in Field Populations of Four Key Stored-Grain Insect Pests in Pakistan

Insects, 2021
In Pakistan, the control of stored-product insect pests mainly relies on the use of phosphine gas along with other control tactics. The aim of this study was to determine the level of phosphine resistance among ten differently located populations of the ...

Controlling insects in stored grain by disturbing the grain

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018
Insects can cause damage to stored grain, especially on smallholder farms in the tropics. Sitophilus zeamais (maize weevil, MW) and Rhyzopertha dominica (lesser grain borer, LGB) are often involved. Our objective was to determine, by four experiments, if

A silo for suppressing the population of Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera, Bostrichidae) in stored wheat

Cogent Food & Agriculture, 2016
The present study showed how the construction of a grain silo prototype can be used to increase the mortality rate of the lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.). The silo prototype is a bin of small dimensions, adequate for laboratory environments,

Using elemental profiling to determine intrinsic markers to track the dispersal of Prostephanus truncatus, a pest of stored grain with alternative natural hosts [PDF]

, 2016
"Detecting sources of insects attacking grain stores can help to develop more effective pest management models. This study considers combinations of chemical elements as intrinsic markers for tracing resource-use by Prostephanus truncatus (Horn ...
