Effects of 50°C temperature on Sitophilus granarius (L.), Sitophilus oryzae (L.) and Sitophilus zeamais (Motsch.) [PDF]
Adults of laboratory populations of granary weevil (S. granarius), rice weevil (S. oryzae)and maize weevil (S. zeamais) were exposed at the temperature of 50°C to determine lethal time (parameters LT20, LT50 and LT99) and progeny production/reduction in ...

Chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation of the maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky) [PDF]
The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky, is one of the most destructive pests of stored grains worldwide, posing a significant threat to global food security. To better understand the biology, resistance mechanism, and adaptive evolution of this

Sublethal Effects of Chlorantraniliprole on the Mobility Patterns of Sitophilus spp.: Implications for Pest Management [PDF]
Chlorantraniliprole, an anthranilic diamide insecticide, has emerged as a promising solution for controlling agricultural pests because of its low mammalian toxicity and selectivity towards non-target organisms.

Odour-mediated orientation of beetles is influenced by age, sex and morph [PDF]
The behaviour of insects is dictated by a combination of factors and may vary considerably between individuals, but small insects are often considered en masse and thus these differences can be overlooked.

Endosymbiosis morphological reorganization during metamorphosis diverges in weevils
Virtually all animals associate with beneficial symbiotic bacteria. Whether and how these associations are modulated across a host’s lifecycle is an important question in disentangling animal-bacteria interactions. We recently reported a case of complete

Star Wars in food stores – automated detection, determination and laser elimination of insect pests
In a project supported by funds of the German government (PT BLE), we test a mobile camera system, scanning surfaces in storage warehouses or food processing industry.

It is generally accepted that stored grain insects are food opportunists and, when originally made the transition to man-made storage facilities, came from natural reservoirs like bird or rodent nests. This may not be true for Sitophilus granarius. Among
