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...
The functional response and some predation parameters of the predators Alloeocranum biannulipes Montrouzier & Signoret (Hemiptera: Reduviidea) and Teretrius nigrescens Lewis (Coleoptera: Histeridae) were evaluated at five different densities of larvae and pupae of Dinoderus porcellus Lesne (Coleo...
The legume pod borer Maruca vitrata Fabricius (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is a serious pest of cowpea in West-Africa. The parasitoid Apanteles taragamae Viereck (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) that originates from Taiwan is a potential candidate for biological control of M. vitrata. We investigated under ...
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 ...
Thedose-dependent mortality of second (3-4 days old),third (5-6 days old) and fourth (7-9 days old) larval instars of Marucavitrataas induced by the entomopathogenic fungal isolates, MetarhiziumanisopliaeMa 29 and BeauveriabassianaBb 115 was determined in a laboratory experiment. For ...
Cell-phone ready educational videos, translated into local languages, are a recent phenomenon in developing nations. One of the reasons for the emergence of this approach is due to the scarcity of other forms of educational materials with appropriate content for low literate learners. Additionall...
Aphis gossypii Glover (Homoptera: Aphididae) is one of the most important cotton pest in Benin. Experiments were carried out to determine population growth parameters of this pest and to compare its performance when feeding on detached leaves as opposed to the whole plant...
The insecticidal activity of Maruca vitrata (F.) multi-nucleopolyhedrovirus ( Mavi MNPV) combined with oil from neem, Azadirachta indica Juss and Jatropha curcas L. (Euphorbiaceae) was studied under labo- ratory and fi eld conditions against three key insect pests of cowpea, Vigna unguiculata (L....
The effect of four host plant species of the herbivore Maruca vitrata Fabricius (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) on development time, longevity, fecundity and sex ratio of the parasitoid Apanteles taragamae Viereck (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) was investigated under laboratory conditions. The larvae were pa...
