Candidate strains of the fungus Beauveria bassiana have been identified for the intergrated pest management of the banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus). However, the important limiting factor has been the lack of an economic and effective delivery system to maximize field effects. Catches in phe...

The effect of covering post-harvest banana stumps with soil on banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar) oviposition levels was investigated at three locations, Sendusu, Kawanda Agricultural Research Institute (KARI) and Ntungamo district of southwestern Uganda. In the first experiment oviposi...

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 ...

Attraction of adult banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus to volatiles from banana pseudostem tissue and the synthetic pheromone Cosmolure+ presented singly or in combination, was studied in the laboratory and in the field. Olfactometric studies in the laboratory showed that 50 g of fermented bana...

Removal and destruction of banana crop residues after harvest has been widely recommended for the control of banana weevil, cosmopolites sordidus control. However, there is scanty information of the actual effect of this practice on the banana weevil populations and damage. This study aimed at in...
