the effect of juvenile hormone mimic ( pyriproxyfen ) on metamorphosis of sunn pest (eurygaster integriceps) put .(heteroptera scutelleridae).

Biological Characterization of Beauveria bassiana (Clavicipitaceae:Hypocreales) from Overwintering Sites of Sunn Pest, Eurygaster integriceps (Scutelleridae: Heteroptera) in Iran

Sunn pest is one of the most important cereal pests that affect both grain yield and quality of cereal in Iran. One potential control strategy is to use entomopathogenic fungi such as Beauveria bassiana Vuillemin as mycoinsecticide to control this pest. Naturally infested Sunn pests in Kermanshah province were collected and brought to laboratory. 10 isolates were selected for further analysis i...

Digestive Proteolytic Activity in the Sunn Pest, Eurygaster integriceps

The Sunn pest, Eurygaster integriceps Puton (Heteroptera: Scutelleridae), is one of the most important pests of wheat and causes considerable damage to this valuable crop annually. Digestive proteinase activity of adult insects was investigated using general and specific substrates and inhibitors. Proteolytic activity was low when the common conventional substrates, azoalbumin, azocasein and he...

Susceptibility of Sunn Pest, Eurygaster integriceps Puton (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae), to Various Entomopathogenic Nematodes (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae)

The susceptibility of adult sunn pest, Eurygaster integriceps Puton (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae), to five local Syrian isolates of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Steinernema riobravae Texas, S. carpocapsae C3B, and H. bacteriophora 8-14 strains was evaluated under laboratory conditions. Concentrations of 50, 100, 200, and 400 nematodes per adult were bioassayed; for each nematode concentration, f...

effects of the insect growth regulators methoxyfenozide and pyriproxyfen on adult diapause in sunn pest eurygaster integriceps (hemiptera: scutelleridae)

the sunn pest is a serious pest of cereals causing severe damage to cereals especially of wheat. its life cycle has two different phases, one is growth and development phase and the other is diapause phase which takes place in adult stage. in this study the effects of juvenile hormone analogue pyriproxyfen, ecdysone analogue methoxyfenozide and mixture of pyriproxyfen and methoxyfenozide on dia...
