Ovicidal Activity of Essential Oils against Red Flour Beetle, Tribolium Castaneum (herbst) (coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)
Context: The essential oils are being tried as potential candidates for pest and disease management. Several essential oils of botanical origin have been reported for their repellant, toxic and developmental inhibitory activities. The ovicidal effect of essential oil is probably the major factor in the suppression of the development of adults from treated eggs. Objectives: To investigate the ov...
متن کاملThermal death kinetics of red flour beetle (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae).
While developing radio frequency heat treatments for dried fruits and nuts, we used a heating block system developed by Washington State University to identify the most heat-tolerant life stage of red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), and to determine its thermal death kinetics. Using a heating rate of 15 degrees C/min to approximate the rapid heating of radio frequency treatments, th...
متن کاملbiological effects of citrus peels essential oils against confused flour beetle, tribolium confusum duval (coleoptera: tenebrionidae)
in this research, fumigation efficiency, repellency and persistence of citrus essential oils extracted from dried peels of orange, bitter orange and mandarin (cultivars: satsuma, page, clemantin) were investigated against adults of confused flour beetle tribolium confusum duval. the essential oils were extracted by using clevenger apparatus. 40 ml glass container as bioassay chamber and filter ...
متن کاملEffects of proteinase inhibitors on digestive proteinases and growth of the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae).
The physiology of the gut lumen of the red flour beetle, T. castaneum, was studied to determine the conditions for optimal protein hydrolysis. Although the pH of gut lumen extracts from T. castaneum was 6.5, maximum hydrolysis of casein by gut proteinases occurred at pH 4.2. The synthetic substrate N-alpha-benzoyl-DL-arginine-rho-nitroanilide was hydrolyzed by T. castaneum gut proteinases in bo...
متن کاملHermetic storage of wheat and maize flour protects against red flour beetle (Tribolium castaneum Herbst)
Hermetic storage is used to protect grain against insect pests, but its utility is not limited to whole grains. We evaluated hermetically-sealed, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles for preserving wheat and maize flour against red flour beetle (RFB, Tribolium castaneum, Herbst) population growth. Flours infested with RFB and kept in sealed PET bottles experienced much less weight loss over...
