Coniesta ignefusalis Hampson (Pyralidae) is an important pest of millet in the Sahelian region of Africa (Nwanze 1991). Because of the economic importance of C. partellus, and its status as an introduced pest, it has been the target of three classical biological control attempts in Africa. He indicated that C. partellus was found in warmer regions and B. fusca in cooler areas. This book, therefore, provides empirical information on methods of testing, selection and evaluation of B. bassiana and M. anisopliae for controlling the spotted stem borer Chilo partellus in maize.

Stem borers are economically the most important insect pests of maize worldwide. 219 Hodson Hall Please try again. Bulletin of Entomological Research 85: 525-530. The results of the competition studies suggest that C. flavipes is a superior parasitoid when C. partellus is the host. Insect Science and its Application 4, 33-39. In the long rainy season of 1993 (March-July), C. flavipes was released at three locations in the coastal area of Kenya over a period of 6-8 weeks (Overholt et al.

Intensive surveys throughout the year are now being conducted at 3 locations in southwestern Kenya to more accurately measure stemborer mortality caused by C. flavipes.

C. flavipes successfully located and parasitized stemborers at the three sites during the season of release (Overholt et al. Borer ponctue de la canne a sucre a Madagascar par un parasite introduit: Apanteles flavipes Cam. C. flavipes was found at 4 of the sites, but parasitism was low ranging between 0.05% and 1.0% (Overholt unpublished).

In an artificial laboratory setting, C. flavipes would parasitize aestivating larvae when the host and parasitoid were placed in close proximity. During colonization, dispersal has a counteracting influence on increases in density. (Pyralidae) and the contribution of natural enemies to its mortality under intercropping system in Kenya. As these two parsasitoids fill an ecologically very similar, if not homologous, niche, it is anticipated that local displacement may occur in areas where C. partellus is the predominant stemborer. Insect Sci. Res. Seasonal parasitism at the seven recovery sites was and ranged from 0.3% to 3.0%. We bieden verschillende opties aan voor het bezorgen of ophalen van je bestelling. However, recently completed studies at ICIPE have shown that C. partellus larvae consume more maize on a daily basis, and during the entire larval lifetime, than C. orichalcociliellus (Ofomata, unpublished). Negatief, positief, neutraal: we zetten een review altijd online.

All three stemborers species found at the coast, C. partellus, C. orichalcociliellus, and S. calamistis, were parasitized (Overholt, unpublished data), confirming the results of previous laboratory studies (Ngi-Song et al. 286-288 In Toward Insect Resistant Maize for the Third World.

Betbeder-Matibet M and Malinge P. (1967) Un succes de la lutte biologique: controle de Proceras sacchariphagus Boj. The developmental times of parasitoids in aestivating and non-aestivating larvae were not different, suggesting that the endocrine environment of the host did not induce diapause in C. flavipes (Mbapila, 1997). In South Africa, E. saccharina is considered to be a pest of sugarcane (Atkinson 1979). Thus, it appears that C. flavipes has a fairly wide host range. In May 1994, C. flavipes was collected from unidentified stemborers in the South Nyanza District which borders Lake Victoria in southwestern Kenya. Release of cocoons was considered to be a preferred method as it maximized the effective lifespan of the adults in the field. 51-60. Res. Lees er meer over in ons cookiebeleid. Based on evidence from surveys conducted prior to 1994 and on electrophoretic evidence, it was concluded that the most likely possibility was that C. flavipes escapted from a colony maintained at Mbita Point in 1991 (Omwega et al.

If our hypothesis is correct that the establishment in the Lake Victoria region resulted from parasitoids that escaped in 1991, then C. flavipes has had two years longer to colonize this area than the coast.

Two indigenous species, C. orichalcociliellus and S. calamistis, also occurred. Data from the 1996 long rains cropping season has not yet been completely analyzed, but the number of recoveries of C. flavipes increased dramatically and it was the most abundant parasitoid at 5 of the 11 sites it was recovered.

1Data for C. partellus, C. orichalcociliellus, S. calamistis and B. fusca: Ngi-Song et al. Bekijk de voorwaarden The inability of C. sesamiae to successfully develop in B. fusca was surprising, as this parasitoid has been recorded as the most common parasitoid of B. fusca in many countries in sub-saharan Africa (Mohyuddin and Greathead 1970, Kfir 1995). Formerly, it was restricted to wild hosts, but then expanded its host range to include maize, sorghum and sugarcane. Je kunt je cookievoorkeuren altijd weer aanpassen. 191 p. Mathez F. C.

At all temperatures, the intrinsic rate of population increase of C. flavipes was higher than C. sesamiae, suggesting that the exotic parasitoid was capable of responding more rapidly to changes in host density (Mbapila 1994). In summary, both parasitoids were attracted to volatile odours emanating from stemborers in grasses, regardless of whether the stemborer was a suitable host. : Kfir R.

Colonial Research Study 31. Bulletin of Entomological Research 49, 367-383. The larger the geographic expanse of suitable habitat, the longer it will take the colonizing insect to reach a characteristic density.

These results suggest that if C. flavipes were to be released in areas where suitable and unsuitable occurred sympatrically, the parasitoid population would suffer mortality in the unsuitable hosts. A maize field was planted adjacent to the wild sorghum once the long rains began and both plants were sampled throughout the rainy season.

Additionally, a third species, C. chilonis, was included in the study as it was considered to be closely related to C. flavipes and C. chilonis (Polaszek and Walker 1991), and has also been the subject of introductions into Africa (Bordat 1983, Kfir 1994).

In Barbados, where C. flavipes was released in 1966 against Diatraea saccharalis in sugarcane, it was not recovered for more than one year after the releases in spite of intensive surveys, but then parsaitism rose steadily during the next few years (Alam et al.

The geographic distributions of the two most damaging cereal stemborers of maize and sorghum in East and southern Africa, B. fusca and C. partellus, are generally thought to be dependent on elevation (Ingram 1958, Nye 1960, Seshu Reddy 1983, Harris 1992).

Indian Centre Sugarcane Commercialization, New Delhi 111 pp. This book, therefore, provides empirical information on methods of testing, selection and evaluation of B. bassiana and M. anisopliae for controlling the spotted stem borer Chilo partellus in maize. C. partellus reportedly occurs below about 1500 m, whereas B. fusca is found at elevations greater than 600 m. Sithole (1987) challenged this hypothesis and indicated that temperature, rainfall and humidity were the factors responsible for the distributions of these two stemborers, with temperature being the most important.

In Madagascar where C. flavipes was released against Chilo sacchariphagus in sugarcane, maximum levels of parasitism (60%) were not reached until 6 years after the releases (Betbeder-Matibet and Malinge 1967). Gupta B. D. (1953) Resume of work done under the insect pest scheme during 1946-47 to 1950-51. Because two or more stemborer species often occur sympatrically in Africa, it was important to determine the host range of C. flavipes prior to its release.

A more thorough survey was conducted in the area in June/July 1994 and C. flavipes emerged from C. partellus collected at seven locations in the same area (Omwega et al. Atkinson P. R.

The apparent shift in the abundance of the two Chilo species during the recent past suggests that the exotic stemborer may be displacing the indigenous species. No establishments were reported in either of the programmes. Parasitoids were released both as adults and as cocoons. 1995). Parasitism at Tarime and Magu were indeed much higher than has been found at the coast, although the results at these sites were based on a single sampling occasion at the end of the maize cropping season.
