Maize streak geminivirus (MSV) isolates originating from maize, other cerealsand 18 grass species in Nigeria were characterized based on symptoms, transmission, host range and serological tests. All isolates could be transmitted to MSV-susceptible sweet corn cv. Golden Bantam using Cicadulina sto...

Oviposition and development of Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky were studied on shelled maize kernels and unshelled cobs of the variety “Blanc Deux Precoce” from the Republic of Benin. On unshelled cobs adult weevils must feed and oviposit mostly on the kernel's crown, the only part of the kernel f...

An experiment was designed to compare cycles of selection of four maize genotypes for ear- and grain-quality characteristics, interactions with Aspergillus flavus and Fusarium verticillioides infection, and insect ear infestation in two seasons. Mean infection levels by A. flavus and F. verticill...

Damage and losses to stored maize in Africa are often severe. Storage pests of an area have to be identified to determine whether they merit control and to choose appropriate control methods. Know ledge of the biology of pests and of factors influencing preharvest and postharvest infeststion is i...

Field surveys were conducted during 1990–92 to document the relative abundance of different species of parasites of the lepidopterous stem borers Sesamia calamistis Hampson and Eldana saccharina Walker in maize fields in southwestern Nigeria. Species of parasitoids detected on both stem borers in...

The distribution and species composition of lepidopterous maize borers was studied in six locations in southern Nigeria during the second planting season (August-November) of 1985 and 1986. Sesamia calamistis Hampson (Noctuidae) and Eldana saccharina Walker (Pyralidae) were the stem borers most a...
