Neurotoxic Effects of Linalool and β-Pinene on Tribolium castaneum Herbst.
Effective, ethical pest control requires the use of chemicals that are highly specific, safe, and ecofriendly. Linalool and β-pinene occur naturally as major constituents of the essential oils of many plant species distributed throughout the world, and thus meet these requirements. These monoterpenes were tested as repellents against Tribolium castaneum, using the area preference method, after ...
متن کاملEffects of gamma radiation on the reproductive organs in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum (Herbst)
Gamma radiation effects on the gonads of Tribolium castaneum were assessed by cytological techniques. Pupal treatments of 15 Gy resulted in the significant reduction of testes and ovaries leading to sterility in males and infecundity in females, respectively. The present findings thus provide an important information for designing a sterile male technique for this storage pest species.
متن کاملDistribution of the Medea factor M in populations of Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) in the United States
The distribution of the maternally acting, selfish gene Medea (M) was determined in populations of the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), collected in the southern and midwestern United States. We found clear evidence for the existence of two major regional subpopulations, with a boundary that roughly corresponds to 331N latitude. All 26 strains collected in 10 states north of this...
متن کاملPerformance of Cypermethrin, Deltamethrin and Nimbicidine on Larval Development of Tribolium Castaneum (herbst)
Context: Pyrethroid insecticides and natural products individually or in mixture can protect stored products by retarded growth and delayed larval period. Objectives: To investigate the effects of cypermethrin, deltamethrin and azadirachtin either alone or in combinations on the larval development of Tribolium castaneum (Herbst). Materials and Methods: T. castaneum larvae were reared in flour m...
متن کاملEffect of methoprene on the progeny production of Tribolium castaneum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae).
BACKGROUND Tribolium castaneum (red flour beetle) is a serious insect pest of stored products around the world. Current control measures for this species have several limitations: loss of registration of insecticides, insecticide resistance and consumer concerns about chemical residues in food. The objective of this study was to determine whether methoprene affects progeny production of T. cast...
