Combining Ability for Maize Weevil Preference of Maize Grain

Crop Science, 1995
Maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky) can cause severe grain damage in maize (Zea mays L.). Knowledge of inheritance of weevils' preference would be helpful in designing breeding strategies to develop more tolerant/resistant cultivars. This study was conducted to estimate general (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) for weevil preference ...

Maize Weevil Control, 1987

Insecticide and Acaricide Tests, 1989
Abstract In Test 1, 19 treatments were applied to uninfested grain of‘Across 8363 QPM’ maize (11% moisture) in December 1986. Each treatment consisted of 1.0 kg of grain, divided into 4 replicate batches of 250 g each in pint glass jars (lids ventilated with screen apertures). They were held at 25 ± 1°C and 60-80% RH.

Inheritance of Maize Weevil Resistance in Maize1

Crop Science, 1975
Ten, eight‐line sets of dent maize inbreds (Zea mays L.) were tested for seed resistance to maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky) in a design II experiment. The genetic variability was evaluated for maternal, cytoplasmic, and endosperm genotype sources.

The chemical identification of the rice weevil and maize weevil aggregation pheromone

Tetrahedron Letters, 1984
Abstract (R*,S*)-4-methyl-s-hydroxy-3-heptanone is identified as the major component of the aggregation pheromone of the rice weevil ( sitophilus oryzae L.) and the maize weevil ( S. zeamais Motsch.).
