The tritrophic interactions between mangoes (Mangifera indica), two frugivorous fly species of greateconomic significance, Bactrocera invadens and Ceratitis cosyra, and weaver ants (Oecophylla longinoda)were studied in Benin. We investigated whether Oecophylla cues affect B. invadens and C. cosyr...

In trials conducted in Benin, conidia of Beauveria bassiana were evaluated as a control method against the cowpea weevil, Callosobruchus maculatus, in stored cowpea. In the first trial using a high artificial infestation of C. maculatus in 8-kg batches of cowpea in jerry cans under typical condit...
