Bioactivity and Prospects of Using Ethanolic Extracts of Some Plants and Bee Glue (Propolis) to Control the Greater Wax Moth Galleria mellonella (L) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)
Abstract:The greater wax moth (Galleria mellonella) is one of the most important pests of stored or unattended combs that cause severe damage to bee broods, threatening the development of apiculture in various countries, especially Sudan. A laboratory experiment was conducted in the College of Agricultural Studies, Sudan University of Science and Technology, Shambat, Sudan, to explore the potency of ethanolic extract (EE) of different parts of three different plants and bee glue against the third larval instar of great… Show more
