Genetic and environmental factors reducing the incidence of the storage pest Sitotroga cerealella in maize

2008-09-01

Abstract excerpt

The Angoumois grain moth, Sitotroga cerealella (Olivier) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), is found worldwide and infests maize grains in the field and during storage. Transgenic maize resistant to kernel attack by S. cerealella has been developed, but could pose a nutritional risk to humans and livestock. Therefore, alternative sources of resistance posing no threat to consumption should be identified. In this study, o...
