Influence of temperature and relative humidity on the insecticidal efficacy of metarhizium anisopliae against larvae of ephestia kuehniella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) on wheat
(2017)A series of laboratory bioassays were conducted for the evaluation of the insecticidal efficacy of an isolate of Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff) Sorokin (Ascomycota: Hypocreales) against larvae of the Mediterranean ... -
Insecticidal Effect of Phosphine on Eggs of the Khapra Beetle (Coleoptera: Dermestidae)
(2021)Trogoderma granarium Everts (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) is one of the most important quarantine pests of stored grains. Control of this insect species can be achieved through a gaseous insecticide, phosphine. Many studies ... -
Insecticidal efficacy of six new pyrrole derivatives against four stored-product pests
(2019)Several pyrrole derivatives exhibit insecticidal activity and can be effective as grain protectants. In the present study, we evaluate the insecticidal efficacy of six novel pyrrole derivatives, namely methyl 3-(methylth ... -
Laboratory evaluation of five novel pyrrole derivatives as grain protectants against Tribolium confusum and Ephestia kuehniella larvae
(2017)Several naturally discovered or laboratory-synthesized pyrrole compounds have insecticidal, acaricidal and microbial properties. The novel sulfanyl 5H-dihydropyrrole derivatives exhibit certain antioxidant activities. ... -
Laboratory studies on the behavioral responses of Tribolium confusum and Ephestia kuehniella to surfaces treated with diatomaceous earth and spinosad formulations
(2018)Laboratory bioassays were conducted to determine the behavioral responses of adults and larvae of Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val and larvae of Ephestia kuehniella Zeller to surfaces treated with two diatomaceous earth ... -
Larvicidal activity of spinosad and its impact on oviposition preferences of the West Nile vector Culex pipiens biotype molestus – A comparison with a chitin synthesis inhibitor
(2020)In the present study, the larvicidal activity of ageing aqueous suspensions of spinosad against larvae of Culex pipiens biotype molestus, as well as their effect on the oviposition preferences of adult gravid females were ... -
Management of the pine processionary moth, Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Lepidoptera: Thaumetopoeidae), in urban and suburban areas: Trials with trunk barrier and adhesive barrier trap devices
(2018)In urban and suburban areas larvae of the pine processionary moth, Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Denis and Schiffermüller), cause serious defoliation to Cedrus, Pinus, and Pseudotsuga trees and health problems to humans and ... -
Mating Attributes Relating to Parasitization and Productivity in Habrobracon hebetor (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) Rearing on Host Indian Meal Moth (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)
(2020)The mating attributes in relating to parasitism and progeny production capacity of the parasitoid Habrobracon hebetor Say, using Plodia interpunctella (Hübner) as a host, were investigated in laboratory studies. The results ... -
Population Growth and Development of the Khapra Beetle (Coleoptera: Dermestidae), on Different Sorghum Fractions
(2021)A series of tests was performed to examine the development ability of Trogoderma granarium Everts on six different sorghum milling fractions: bran, shorts, coarse grits, fine grits, red dogs, and flour. In the first bioassay, ... -
Population structure of two benthic species with different larval stages in the eastern mediterranean sea
(2017)Population structure in the marine environment is sometimes cryptic due to complex demographic expansion and distribution of the species. Benthic organisms possess different reproductive strategies with regards to larvae ... -
Reshaping gut bacterial communities after dietary Tenebrio molitor larvae meal supplementation in three fish species
(2019)The aquaculture industry is currently looking for alternative, sustainable diets that provide similar or better growth for the reared species. We investigated whether replacing fishmeal with yellow mealworm (Tenebrio ... -
The superworm, zophobas morio (Coleoptera:Tenebrionidae): A ‘sleeping giant’ in nutrient sources
(2021)The aim of this review is to compile up-to-date information on the superworm, Zophobas morio (F.), regarding its biology and ecology, but also its further potential for use as a nutrient source for food and feed. We ... -
Susceptibility of different life stages of tribolium confusum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) and oryzaephilus surinamensis (Coleoptera: Silvanidae) to cold treatment
(2018)Laboratory tests were carried out to examine the efficacy of different exposure intervals (2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 1 d, 2 d, 3 d, and 7 d) on different life stages (adults, pupae, larvae, and eggs) of Tribolium confusum Jacquelin ... -
Susceptibility of Four Different Sorghum Varieties to Infestation by the Khapra Beetle
(2021)In this study, we evaluated the susceptibility of four different sorghum varieties to infestation by the khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium Everts (Coleoptera: Dermestidae), as compared with wheat, which served as a ... -
Tenebrio molitor larvae meal inclusion affects hepatic proteome and apoptosis and/or autophagy of three farmed fish species
(2022)Herein, the effect of dietary inclusion of insect (Tenebrio molitor) meal on hepatic pathways of apoptosis and autophagy in three farmed fish species, gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata), European seabass (Dicentrarchus ... -
