Edge Effect on the Distribution of the Green Shield Bug Palomena prasina in Hazelnut Orchards, and the Role of Adjacent Habitats in Crop Colonization

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 5, Page 461-474, May 2026.
Spring–Summer spatial dynamics of Palomena prasina (L.) and potential IPM strategies. ABSTRACT Palomena prasina (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), the green shield bug (GSB), is an important hazelnut pest in Southern Europe. Currently, its control focuses on insecticide spraying during the crop season. We hypothesized that, as for other pentatomid species,

Behavior of maize weevil at doses of permethrin

Comunicata Scientiae, 2013
The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motsch. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), is among the most destructive and globally well distributed pests of stored grain; the main method of control is the use of insecticides. This study aimed to compare, under laboratory conditions (27±2°C, 70%±10% RH, LD 12:12), the behavior of maize weevil populations exposed to ...

Prediction of maize weevil population growth rate

2014 ASABE Annual International Meeting, 2014
Insects play ecological roles within natural ecosystems, provide economic benefits in agricultural systems, act as pollinators and seed dispersers. But some infest grain, which can lead to catastrophic losses of food supplies, especially in developing countries.

Role of carvacrol and menthone in maize weevil Sitophilus zeamais (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) management

European Journal of Biological Research, 2023
Insecticides of synthetic origin used indiscriminately to manage insect pest populations are known for genotoxicity, neurotoxicity and teratogenicity in non-target organisms as well as the development of resistance in target insects.

Efficacy of Diatomaceous Earth to Control Internal Infestations of Rice Weevil and Maize Weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2003
Densities of 10, 20, and 30 hard red winter wheat kernels, Triticum aestivum L., were infested with different life stages of the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L.), mixed with 35 g of wheat treated with 300 ppm of the Protect-It (Mississauga, Ontario, Canada) formulation of diatomaceous earth (DE), and held at 22, 27, and 32 degrees C.

Resistance of Selected Sorghum Genotypes to Maize Weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Environmental Entomology, 2018
The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), is a major insect pest of stored grain. This study evaluated resistance of grain of 26 sorghum genotypes, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, to maize weevil under laboratory conditions. Three female and two male newly emerged maize weevils were reared with 5 g of grain in each of
