The effects of maize variety and storage form on development of the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky, were studied under artificial infestation at 25 ± 2 °C and 70 ± 5% r.h. in the laboratory. Three improved West African maize varieties, Abeleehi, EV8725-SR, Pop63-SR and the local var...

Effect of maize variety and storage form on the development of the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky
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 distribution among and within grain stores of 2 grain store pests, Prostephanus Truncatus (Horn) and Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky were examined over time using different maize cultivars. Incidence in stores was variable between seasons for both species. The b coefficient of Taylor's power l...
