Current strategies to control insect pest problems in cowpea include, on the preventive side, host plant resistance and conservation biological control. Because very often these management options alone cannot provide adequate control, curative measures need to be taken, which include augmentativ...

Insect pests often develop resistance to insecticides, and such resistance represents a serious management problem. Devising methods that concurrently delay resistance and minimize injury by insects to field crops and stored grain has long been a goal of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). A center...


Agunbiade, T.A.Steele, L.Coates, B.Gassmann, A.Margam, V.Ba, Malick N.Dabiré-Binso, C.Baoua, I.Bello-Bravo, JuliaSeufferheld, F.Sun, W.Tamò, M.Pittendrigh, Barry R.[IPM-omics: from genomics to extension for integrated pest management of cowpea]IPM-omics: from genomics to extension for integrated pest management of cowpea

Cowpea farming practices have been ongoing for millennia and have always faced various challenges including diseases, insects, and weeds, that lower its yield to no more than 200 kg/ha. This economically and nutritionally important crop has been a major research focus of the International Institu...

Synthetic sex pheromone traps for the legume pod borer, Maruca vitrata (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), effectively attracted males in cowpea fields at Cotonou (lat. 6°25' N) in southern Benin, where pest incidence is observed throughout the year. However, the same pheromone lures caught ver...

The brown pod-sucking bug, Clavigralla tomentosicollis Stäl (Hemiptera: Coreidae), causes significant damage to cultivated cowpea, Vigna unguiculata Walp, a staple crop in sub-Saharan Africa. C. tomentosicollis pierce and suck sap from cowpea pods, resulting in reduced grain yield and quality. Th...

The parasitoid wasp Apanteles taragamae is a promising candidate for the biological control of the legume pod borer Maruca vitrata, which recently has been introduced into Benin. The effects of volatiles from cowpea and pea bush flowers and Maruca vitrata larvae on host selection behavior of the ...

Cowpea Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. is an important component in mixed cropping systems that are appropriate to the agro-ecological characteristics of the West African savannah. However, the contribution of cowpea to overall productivity of the systems is reduced by a number of insect pest specie...

In previous work successful trapping of the legume podborer, Maruca vitrata Fabricius (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), was accomplished using a synthetic pheromone blend consisting of (E,E)-10,12-hexadecadienal, (E,E)-10,12-hexadecadienol, and (E)-10-hexadecenal in a 100 : 5 : 5 ratio. In the present wo...

The effect of temperature on the development and survival of the legume pod borer, Maruca vitrata (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) was examined by rearing cohorts on a semi-synthetic diet containing cowpea grain and leaf at different constant temperatures in the laboratory. The developmental ...
