Properties of glycosidases from the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais
Insect Biochemistry, 1991Abstract A survey of glycosidase activity in adults of the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky, indicated a complex of enzymes qualitatively sufficient to hydrolyze the free di- and oligosaccharides in their cereal diets as well as the maltose and oligomaltodextrins produced by the action of α-amylase on ingested starch. Glycosidase activity

Bacterial Volatile Organic Compounds Shape the Chemical Ecology of Sitophilus zeamais
Journal of Chemical EcologyMicrobial volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are key modulators of insect behavior. These low molecular weight compounds influence ecological interactions and hold potential as sustainable agents in pest control. Sitophilus zeamais, a major pest of stored maize worldwide, causes significant post-harvest losses.

Oviposition plasticity in Sitophilus zeamais (Motsch.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae).
Mededelingen (Rijksuniversiteit te Gent. Fakulteit van de Landbouwkundige en Toegepaste Biologische Wetenschappen), 2003The oviposition plasticity (term used here to refer to the phenomenon whereby some insects reduce egg laying in poor conditions and increase it when conditions improve) of Sitophilus zeamais, one of the most serious insect pests to maize during grain storage, was investigated in different food resources.
