Digestive proteinases in Lasioderma serricorne (Coleoptera: Anobiidae).
The cigarette beetle, Lasioderma serricorne (Fabricius), is a common pest of stored foods. A study of digestive proteinases in L. serricorne was performed to identify potential targets for proteinaceous biopesticides, such as proteinase inhibitors. Optimal casein hydrolysis by luminal proteinases of L. serricorne was in pH 8.5-9.0 buffers, although the pH of luminal contents was slightly acidic...
متن کاملThe behavioral response of Lasioderma serricorne (Coleoptera: Anobiidae) to citronellal, citral, and rutin
The behavioral response of Lasioderma serricorne adults to citronellal, citral, and rutin was investigated by using the area preference method. The L. serricorne adults were exposed to citronellal, and citral at the rate of 1:10, 1:50, 1:100 and 1:1000 (citronellal: ethanol, v/v) for 1, 2, 12 and 24 h, to rutin at the rate of 10, 30 and 90 g/m(2) for 1, 2, 12 and 24 h, respectively. The citrone...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Lasioderma serricorne (Coleoptera: Anobiidae) life stages to elevated temperatures used during structural heat treatments.
Heat treatment of food-processing facilities involves using elevated temperatures (50-60 degrees C for 24-36 h) for management of stored-product insects. Heat treatment is a viable alternative to the fumigant methyl bromide, which is phased out in the United States as of 2005 because of its adverse effects on the stratospheric ozone. Very little is known about responses of the cigarette beetle,...
متن کاملLasioderma Serricorne (coleoptera: Anobiidae): Spatial Relationship between Trap Catch and Distance from an Infested Product
The cigarette beetle, Lasioderma serricorne (Fabricius), was selected as a representative stored-product beetle to test the validity of contour mapping of trap catch for pest monitoring in warehouses and retail stores. Three experiments, each replicated 5 times, were conducted in a 3.2 × 9.0-m aluminum shed. Each experiment involved releasing beetles at a single point and recording the numbers ...
متن کاملcellulase activity in the larval digestive tract of the colorado potato beetle, leptinotarsa decemlineata (coleoptera: chrysomelidae) and the cigarette beetle, lasioderma serricorne (coleoptera: anobiidae)
leptinotarsa decemlineata (say) and lasioderma serricorne f. are destructive pre-harvest and post-harvest pests of many plants in the family solanaceae, and stored foodstuffs and non-food items, respectively. in this study, some biochemical characteristics of cellulase in the larval digestive tract of these pests were studied. endo-β-1, 4-glucanase activity was measured against the substrate ca...
