The effects of egg clutch size on development and survivorship of the larger grain borer, Prostephanus truncatus (Horn) (Col.: Bostrichidae) on maize were measured in the laboratory using single grains of the white maize variety, TZSR-W, at 30 ± 2°C and 70 ± 5% RH. Varying numbers of P. truncatus...

The biology of Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky, an important pest of stored commodities, is well described in the literature. To integrate current knowledge and to understand better the population dynamics of this species in rural maize, Zea mays L., stores, we developed a distributed-delay, demog...

Laboratory experiments using whole cobs were conducted to examine the effect of varying densities of the larger grain borer, Prostephanus truncatus and the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais on rate of population increase by the histerid beetle, Teretriosoma nigrescens, a predator primarily of P. t...

A fungal entomopathogen, Beauveria bassiana, was used to treat maize ears placed in traditional grain stores against Prostephanus truncatus in a field experiment conducted from September 1997 to March 1998 in the Benin Republic, West Africa. Treatments included oil-based spray with and without co...

Delta traps baited with maize cobs, which were infested each with one male Prostephanus truncatus (Horn) (Col.: Bostrichidae), were distributed in southern Benin and collected after one, two, three and four weeks. The numbers of P. truncatus caught during the different trapping periods were not s...

. A distributed-delay, demographic simulation model of Prostephanus tnmcatus (Horn) populations in rural maize (Zea mays L.) stores was developed and validated. Developmental and mortality parameters for eggs, larvae, and pupae, and the life span and fecundity data for adult insects, were estimat...
