Description
New control methods are necessary for stored grain pest
management programs due to both the widespread problems of
insecticide-resistance populations and the increasing concerns of
consumers regarding pesticide residues in food products. Ribeiro
(2013) carried out an experiment to assess the bioactivity of
extracts of Annona mucosa (Annonaceae) for control
Sitophilus zeamaus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), a major pest
of stored maize in Brazil. Petri dishes containing 10g of corn were
treated with extracts prepared with different parts of Annona
mucosa (seeds, leaves and branches) or just water (control) were
completely randomized with 10 replicates. Then 20 animals adults
were placed in each Petri dish and the numbers of emerged insects
(progeny) after 60 days were recorded.

solution;
