Corn physicochemical properties affect Sitophilus zeamais losses

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Abstract The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky, 1885 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), is one of the primary insect pests affecting maize in Brazil. Due to the limited availability of active compounds for insect control, there is a pressing need to explore alternative sources of resistance, potentially harboring genetic reservoirs for material ...

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
