New discovery of the oldest maize weevils in the world from Jomon potteries, Japan [PDF]

, 2010
The maize weevil (_Sitophilus zeamais_) and rice weevil (_Sitophilus oryzae_) are two of the most damaging insects for stored grains, and are characteristic species of ancient Japan. Both species and the granary weevil (_Sitophilus granarius_) are common

Bioinsecticidal Activities Of Azadirachta Indica And Moringa Oleifera Against Maize Weevil (Sitophilus Zeamais) And Rice Weevil (Sitophilus Oryzae) – A Review

Global Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences
Control of stored-product insect pests continues to primarily be based on application of synthetic insecticides such as organophosphates, pyrethroids and fumigants because they are effective for the management of insect infestations.

Determining Terminal Velocities of Selected Insects and Substitute Materials to Develop Future Test Procedures for Insect‐Friendly Mowing Technology

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural grasslands are vital habitats for insects that provide key ecosystem services. However, conventional rotary mowers are proposed to cause significant insect mortality due to the high rotational speed of their blades and the resulting airflow.

Resistance of Rice Varieties to \u3ci\u3eSitophilus oryzae\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) [PDF]

, 2016
Rice, Oryza sativa L. (Poaceae), is one of the world’s most important food crops. Among the insects that damage rice grains, the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), is the most important species.

Loss‐of‐Function Mutation in CER2‐LIKE1 Reduced Accumulation of Cuticular Wax and Susceptibility to Thrips in Welsh Onion

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes can form a hydrophobic barrier on aerial plant surfaces, which is essential for mediating plant‐environment interactions by providing protection against both biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, a cuticular wax mutant (gl) was identified and characterised in Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum L.), exhibiting a functional ...

The First Evidence of the Insecticidal Potential of Plant Powders from Invasive Alien Plants against Rice Weevil under Laboratory Conditions

Applied Sciences, 2020
In a laboratory experiment, we studied the insecticidal effects of invasive alien plants on the rice weevil. The research was carried out in two parts.

A Volatile Cue From a Specialist Herbivore Primes Gene Expression Against Biotic Stress in Tall Goldenrod (Solidago altissima L.)

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insect‐derived molecular cues can prime plant defences against herbivore attack. The genes that are sensitive to priming, and how their expression changes on the scale of days, have not been fully resolved. Moreover, priming may affect interactions with insects that are not the source of the priming cue.

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

Taming the waterways: The Europeanization of Southern Québec's riverside landscapes during the 16th–18th centuries [PDF]

, 2018
The arrival of Europeans in the New World effected the interaction of 2 temperate biogeographical eco-zones: the Palaearctic and Nearctic. Alfred Crosby has hypothesized that the success of the Europeans as imperialists was due, in part, to the ability ...
