Investigation of Antixenosis and Antibiosis as Mechanisms of Resistance in Rice to the Rice Weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

, 1994
Five rice lines (8721941, 8723463, 8723518, 8725417, 8725454) were evaluated in the greenhouse in 1991 and 1992 for resistance to the rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kuschel.

Effectiveness of Cinnamon Oil Embedded Chitosan–Gelatin Film in Inhibiting Rhizopus oryzae, R. microsporus, and Syncephalastrum racemosum and Controlling Rice Weevil Infestation on Paddy Rice

Foods
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a staple food globally, providing a critical food for the majority of the Asian population. However, it exposes risks during post-harvest storage, threatening substantial losses in rice quality and quantity.

Viabilidade da antecipação do tratamento de sementes de arroz com inseticidas em relação à data de semeadura no controle de Oryzophagus oryzae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Viability of the advance rice seed treatment with insecticides in relation to sowing date in the control of Oryzophagus oryzae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Ciência Rural, 2008
Oryzophagus oryzae (Costa Lima, 1936) é uma das pragas mais prejudiciais da cultura do arroz irrigado, sendo seu controle efetuado tradicionalmente com inseticidas granulados aplicados na água de irrigação.

Active Polymers Containing Silver Nanoparticles Combined With Formulations Based on Essential Oils: Quality Effect on Cereals and Dairy Products

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Bioactive nanocomposite diffusion films containing plant essential oils (EOs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were fabricated and tested against foodborne pathogens, spoilage organisms, and insects in packaged foods. Films were based on chitosan (CH), poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT), and polylactic acid (PLA), containing ...

The genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes of the carrot weevil, Listronotus oregonensis, reveal adaptive mechanisms for host specialisation and symbiotic interactions

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 126-138, April 2026.
Comprehensive genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes reveal 14,637 genes in Listronotus oregonensis, advancing genetic insights into a key agricultural pest. Compared with related species, L. oregonensis exhibits reduced chemoreceptor gene families but expanded detoxification gene clusters, reflecting its narrow host range and adaptability.

Effect of temperature on growth and development of rice weevil [Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)] on polished rice

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Rice weevils (Sitophilus oryzae), a major storage pest, cause both qualitative and quantitative losses of stored grains. Normally, chemical insecticide along with fumigation is practiced for the management, but it creates health hazards. So, this study investigates the effects of temperature and duration of exposure on rice weevils. Completely

Potential for the American toad (Anaxyrus americanus) to contribute to biological control in a vegetable agroecosystem

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The American toad (Anaxyrus americanus) is a native insectivorous amphibian common in agricultural fields in eastern North America. Past research on this and related species suggests potential for positive or negative effects on pest populations, depending on the prevalence of intraguild predation.

Assessing the establishment risk for parthenogenetic populations of Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus in global rice-growing areas and potential economic impact in China

Frontiers in Plant Science
The rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kuschel (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), threatens global rice production, with invasion events driven by its parthenogenetic populations.
