Aphids are regarded as important pest problems of vegetable crops worldwide. Most vegetable growers in sub-Saharan Africa heavily rely on synthetic chemical insecticides for aphids’ control. Fungus-based biopesticides are being considered as alternatives to chemical insecticides. This study evalu...

Aphids are pest species of many crops and biocontrol methods are often ineffective. Ant–aphid associations can be mutualistic or antagonistic, with ants increasing or reducing aphid numbers. Within-species plant variation or other herbivores may further influence these ant–aphid interactions. Okr...

The cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii) is one of the major pests of okra. Eleven okra varieties collected from farmers’ fields in Cameroon and four aphid-resistant accessions from The World Vegetable Center (AVRDC, Asian Vegetable Research and Development Center) were evaluated from October 2012 to Ma...

The study was conducted in three regions (Southwest and Littoral, South and Centre, West and Northwest) of Cameroon to document cassava processed products andtoassess processing constraints among small-holder farmers. A total of twelve small-scale processing units and five marketer...

Although a number of recent studies suggest that climate associated shifts in agriculture are affecting social and economic systems, there have been relatively few studies of these effects in Africa. Such studies would be particularly useful in Central Africa, where the impacts of climate warming...

Ants have been shown as particularly affected by land disturbance through deforestation and conversion of forest to agriculture. The effect of land use change on ant diversity in the Congo Basin is not well known. We conducted intensive sampling along a gradient of increasing vegetation disturban...

The scale insect, Stictococcus vayssierei, is one of the major pests and constraints to cassava production in the Congo Basin. It is frequently found associated with the ground nesting ant, Anoplolepis tenella, under cassava plant. Amdro fire ant bait granules (contains 7.3 g/kg Hydramethylnon), ...

La mosaïque africaine du manioc est une maladie redoutable qui ravage les champs de manioc en Afrique. Elle est causée par un virus dont le vecteur principal est la mouche blanche Bemisia tabaci. Un des moyens de lutte contre cette maladie passe par la lutte contre le vecteur B. tabaci, réputé tr...
