Fosfin gazı depolanmış hububattaki böceklere karşı dünya genelinde kullanılan ana pestisittir. Türkiye’de de 1950’lerden itibaren kullanılmaktadır. Bu fumiganta böceklerde direnç artışı önemli bir problemdir. çalışmada ekin kambur böceği, Rhyzoperta dominica (F., 1792) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae)’nın ülkemizde 12 ilden 18 popülasyonundaki fosfin dirençleri 2013-2017 yılları arasında belirlenmişt...

There is a world-wide need for the development of sustainable management strategies to control pest infestation and the development of phosphine (PH3) resistance in lesser grain borer (Rhyzopertha dominica). Computer simulation models can provide a relatively fast, safe and inexpensive way to weigh the merits of various management options. However, the usefulness of simulation models relies on ...

BACKGROUND The emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) pathogens is of great concern to the global health community. Our ability to effectively treat diseases is based on the discovery of potent drugs for the treatment of these challenging diseases. Traditional medicines are one of the major sources for the discovery of safe, effective and economical drug candidates. In order to validate its ant...

Competition is a driving force regulating communities often considered an intermittent phenomenon, difficult to verify and potentially driven by environmental disturbances. Insecticides are agents of environmental disturbance that can potentially change ecological relationships and competitive outcomes, but this subject has seldom been examined. As the co-existing cereal grain beetle species Si...

A series of tests were conducted to determine the susceptibility of eggs and neonates of the lesser grain borer Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae = Bostrychidae), exposed to the insect growth regulator, methoprene, on filter paper and on rough rice. In the first test, the hatch rate of eggs exposed on filter paper treated with methoprene at the label rate of 0.003 mg [AI]/cm(2...

Aeration using automatic controllers was compared with manually‐activated aeration (manual aeration) in bins of farm‐stored rice in Nome, Texas, from 17 September 2002 through the end of the year. Manual aeration was defined as the farm owner manually activating the fans in mid‐October, while automatic aeration employed activation temperatures of 23.9 C, 15.6 C, and 7.2 C for three discreet coo...
