چکیده

laboratory bioassays were carried out to evaluate the insecticidal efficacy of silicosec? against 7 - 14 day old adults, old and young larvae of tribolium castaneum (herbst) with the mean ? se (n = 30) weight of 3.4 ? 0.1 and 0.6 ? 0.1 mg, respectively at 27?c and 55 ? 5% rh. wheat treated with four dose rates of silicosec? and untreated wheat served as a control with three replications. adult?s mortality was measured after 2, 7 and 14 days of exposure. after 14 day mortality counts, all adults were removed and samples retained under the same conditions for a further 60 days to assess progeny production. in the case of larvae, mortality was counted after 1, 2 and 7 day. after 2 day no concentration achieved 11% mortality for adults, however; adult's mortality exceeds 89.65% when exposed for 7 day to silicosec?. mortality of old and young larvae at 600 ppm after 2 day were 28.88 and 22.22%, respectively and exceed to 60.71 and 69.04% at longer exposure of 7 day. due to results mortality of t. castaneum was influenced by interval exposed to wheat treated with silicosec? and over this exposure, the increases in application rate of silicosec? had significant effect on the mortality. young larvae of red flour beetle were more sensitive to silicosec? than old larvae and adults were more tolerant. the mean number ? se of progeny in the control was 1.66 ? 0.101 individuals per vial and there was a significant difference between treated and untreated wheat, so reproductive potential of adults in treated wheat was suppressed when compared with untreated wheat.

Laboratory bioassays were carried out to evaluate the insecticidal efficacy of SilicoSec? against 7 - 14 day old adults, old and young larvae of Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) with the mean ? SE (n = 30) weight of 3.4 ? 0.1 and 0.6 ? 0.1 mg, respectively at 27?C and 55 ? 5% RH.

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...

Efficacy of diatomaceous earth formulations admixed with grain against populations of Tribolium castaneum

The efficacy of diatomaceous earth (DE) to control stored-products Coleoptera on stored grain was examined against several populations of the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst). Four commercially available DE formulations were tested: INSECTO, Perma-GuardTM, Protect-It and the diatomite used for the production of Dryacide, each at six concentrations (100-1000 ppm). A great variation...

Diatomaceous earth increases the efficacy of Beauveria bassiana against Tribolium castaneum larvae and increases conidia attachment.

This research tested the suppressive ability of Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin alone and in combination with diatomaceous earth against the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst). Adults did not show a dose response to B. bassiana, and the addition of diatomaceous earth (DE) did not result in a significant increase in mortality. Against larvae, however, DE at 190 mg/kg grain enh...

Long-term Efficacy of Protein-enriched Pea Flour against Tribolium Castaneum (coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) in Wheat Flour

Long-term efficacy of the protein-enriched flour of pea (Pisum sativum L. var. Bonneville) in its toxicity, progeny reduction and organoleptic properties was evaluated by combining it with wheat flour and testing the admixture against the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst). The toxicity and progeny-reducing effects of the wheat flour treated with protein-enriched pea flour were stab...
