Resistance of maize cultivars to Sitophilus zeamais (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) [PDF]

Arquivos do Instituto Biológico, 2018
ABSTRACT: Five Zea mays cultivars (BRS Caatingueiro, BRS Gorutuba, BRS Sertanejo, BRS Asa Branca and BR 106) were evaluated considering their effect on the nutrition of the maize weevil Sitophilus zeamais, by analysis of total protein in adult fed with these cultivars and for the presence of lectins and trypsin inhibitors in grains.
