Impact of temperature on life history of two long-term laboratory strains of Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) from Greece and Serbia
(Elsevier, 2022)
The current study examines the influence of temperature (25, 30 and 32.5 °C), on two laboratory strains of Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val, originally collected from Greece and Serbia, in terms of immature development, ...
The effectiveness of low temperature (5° C) on Sitophilus oryzae (L.), Sitophilus zeamais (Motch.) and Sitophilus granarius (L.) in wheat grain: The impact of pre-acclimation
(Elsevier, 2021)
Laboratory trials were conducted in wheat grain to assess the effectiveness of low temperature (5 °C), applied at intervals of 5, 7, 9, 11, 20, 25, 30 and 35 days (d), as a control measure for stored product insect pests ...
Laboratory assessment of insecticidal effectiveness of natural zeolite and diatomaceous earth formulations against three stored-product beetle pests
(Elsevier, 2010)
The insecticidal effectiveness of two natural zeolite formulations (Minazel plus and Minazel), applied to wheat at selected rates of 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 g/kg, and a diatomaceous earth formulation (DE) (Protect-It (TM)), ...
Development and progeny performance of Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) in brewer’s yeast and wheat (patent) flour at different population densities
(Elsevier, 2021)
The effects of brewer's yeast and wheat patent flour on Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) life parameters at different population densities (1, 2, 5 and 10 pairs) were examined. A standard diet (95% wheat flour + 5% brewer's ...
The effects of population densities and diet on Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) life parameters
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The effects of population densities (10, 25, 50 and 100 adults/50 g) and three diet types (protein-rich, carbohydrates-rich and compound feed) on life parameters (first emergence, development rate, number of progeny and ...
Insecticidal activity of three diatomaceous earths on lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica F., and their effects on wheat, barley, rye, oats and triticale grain properties / Journal of Stored Products Research
(Elsevier, 2018)
This study aimed to evaluate insecticidal activity of three diatomaceous earths DEs, two originated from Serbia (DE S-1 and DE S-2) and one commercial formulation (Protect-It, Hedley Technologies Ltd. Canada) applied at ...
Comparison of three different wood ashes and diatomaceous earth in controlling the maize weevil under laboratory conditions
(Journal of Stored Products Research, 12-2018)
We studied the insecticidal effects of ashes from three different tree species (common beech, Norway spruce, and black locust) on the mortality of Sitophilus zeamais adults under laboratory conditions. A diatomaceous earth ...
Combined effects of contact insecticides and 50 °C temperature on Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in wheat grain
(Journal of Stored Products Research, 10-2016)
The effects of the insecticides deltamethrin, bifenthrin, thiamethoxam, spinosad and abamectin were tested in the laboratory in combination with extreme temperature of 50 °C to discover potential improvements of existing ...
The impact of the protein-carbohydrate ratio in animal feed and the initial insect population density on the development of the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum
(Elsevier, 2022)
Progeny numbers and life parameters of Tribolium castaneum reared on a range of different animal feeds which varied in their protein-carbohydrate ratios (corn starch; corn feed flour; wheat bran; soybean meal; corn gluten; ...
Bean weevil Acanthoscelides obtectus (Say) survival and progeny production affected by residual insecticide deposits, and related damage of two types of bean
(Elsevier, 2022)
The bean weevil, Acanthoscelides obtectus (Say) is a serious pest of stored bean seeds. In an effort to improve current management programs the intention of our study was to assess in the laboratory the impact of insecticide ...
