Susceptibility of Maize Genotypes to Maize Weevil Sitophilus Zeamais Motsch. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) [PDF]

, 2017
One possibility to protect the maize from storage pests is by developing genotypes that resistant to maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais Motsch). The research was aimed to evaluate the susceptibility of several maize genotypes including local variety to the

Evaluation of tolerance/resistance to phosphine of stored product beetle populations from Europe, by using different diagnostic methods

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018
We evaluated the susceptibility to phosphine in different populations originated from 14 European countries, by following different diagnostic protocols. In total, more than 200 populations were screened during these tests, classified to 9 beetle species:

Chemical composition and insecticidal effect of methanol extract of Capparis spinosa L. fruits on Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val, 1863 and Sitophilus oryzae (L., 1763) adults

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2022
Tribolium confusum and Sitophilus oryzae are stored product pests found worldwide. Environmental damages, human health issues and the emergence of resistance are driving scientists to seek alternatives to synthetic insecticides for its control.

Experimental Disentangling of the Effects of Initial Population Size and Resource Availability on Weevil Population Dynamics

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 12, Page 1278-1284, December 2025.
Initial population size and resource availability are key factors regulating population dynamics, with growth rates typically declining as populations increase but rising with greater resources. In maize weevils, however, we found an unexpected negative effect of resource availability on intrinsic growth rates, contrary to conventional expectations. We

A study of population growth of Sitophilus oryzae L. and Sitophilus granarius L. in single and mixed culture in wheat and rice : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Science at Massey University [PDF]

, 1983
Biological interactions between organisms which contend for the same resource, have been of interest to ecologists since the days of Darwin. Although this sort of association is evident for many animal-versus-animal and plant-versus-plant situations, one

Effects of the alarm pheromone on Triatoma pallidipennis behaviour

Physiological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 374-387, December 2025.
T. pallidipennis performs behavioural acts in response to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. T. pallidipennis shows a repellent response when exposed to volatiles emitted by mechanically disturbed conspecifics. Isobutyric and propanoic acids can be used as repellents of T. pallidipennis. Abstract Adults of some Triatomine species,

Insects as Food and Feed Source: A Comprehensive Review on Nutritional Value, Food Safety Concern, Environmental Benefits, Economic Potential, Technological Innovations, Challenges, and Future Prospects

Food Frontiers, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 2591-2646, November 2025.
Edible insects offer a sustainable protein source, requiring fewer resources than traditional livestock. Despite challenges, they have the potential to enhance food security and sustainability for a growing global population. ABSTRACT As the world faces an escalating protein crisis amid climate change, population growth, and resource scarcity, edible ...
