Feeding and oviposition preference of Phyllophaga cuyabana (Moser) (Coleoptera: Melolonthidae) on several crops.
Laboratory and greenhouse experiments were carried out to study food and oviposition preference by Phyllophaga cuyabana (Moser) on different plant species as Cajanus cajan L. (pigeon pea), Crotalaria juncea L. (sun hemp), Crotalaria spectabilis Roth (showy crotalaria), Crotalaria ochroleuca G. Don (slenderleaf rattlebox), Glycine max [L.] Merrill (soybean), Gossypium hirsutum L. (cotton), Helia...
متن کاملOviposition tests of ant preference in a myrmecophilous butterfly
Butterflies in the family Lycaenidae that have obligate associations with ants frequently exhibit ant-dependent egg laying behaviour. In a series of field and laboratory choice tests, we assessed oviposition preference of the Australian lycaenid Jalmenus evagoras in response to different species and populations of ants. Females discriminated between attendant and nonattendant ant species, betwe...
متن کاملOviposition Behavior in Two Species of Dragonflies
A comparative study of oviposition behavior of the dragonflies, Anax junius and Tramea onusta, was undertaken for two successive years in Tinley Park, Illinois. It was found that females of both species use tandem position and oviposit in close association with males. In A. junius, however, the male is physically attached to (tandem with) the ovipositing female during the actual act of oviposit...
متن کاملChoice alters Drosophila oviposition site preference on menthol
Food choice and preference relies on multiple sensory systems that are under the control of genes and sensory experience. Exposure to specific nutrients and nutrient-related molecules can change food preference in vertebrates and invertebrates. For example, larval exposure of several holometabolous insects to menthol can change their adult response to this molecule. However, studies involving D...
متن کاملDeterrent Effects of Alstonia boonei Oil on Oviposition and Progeny Development of Callosobruchus maculatus (Fab.) [Coleoptera: Bruchidae].
BACKGROUND: Botanicals insecticides has remained the major weapons amongst tropical zones farmers to combat hexapods infestation of stored cowpea seeds in lieu of expensive synthetic chemical insecticides that have toxic effects on our environment. OBJECTIVES: Deterrence of cowpea bruchid oviposition and emergence on seeds treated with Cheese wood, Alstoni...
