“…Microwave energy is not persistent in the environment and does not hazardous impacts or damage to foodstuff and hence there are no adverse effects on human beings (Warchalewski et al 2000;Vadivambal et al 2007). This notion is widely seconded in the literature and in this line, several researches more often have been conducted in the use of microwave radiation alone to control stored-product pests (e.g., Warchalewski et al, 2000;Çetinkaya et al, 2006;Vadivambal et al, 2008;Valizadegan et al, 2009;. In this study the microwave radiation used in conjecture with cold storage the results showed that in all experiments microwaves energy inflected lethal effects to the tested insects.…”

Microwave radiation in conjecture with two types of cold storage were used to control adults of red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) and lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae). The mortality rate of the insects at 200 W microwave power level, different exposure times (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 min), for 48 h pre and post cold storage period was determined. A direct relationship between mortality rates and exposure times was detected. Susceptibility of the insects in implementation radiation priori or post cold storage execution was significantly different. Apparently, when the insects were exposed to microwave radiation prior to cold storage, the mortality rates were increased. In comparison, the adults of wheat flour beetle were more tolerant than the corresponding adults of the lesser grain borer. Wheat germination rate was diminished by post cold storage microwave radiation procedure. The plumule length did not reduce after exposure to microwave energy and cold storage. Together, data suggest concurrent application of microwave radiation followed by cold storage could be a potential measure for control wheat stored-product beetles.

“…Even microwave radiation can be used with cold storage for the management of pests in stored products, for example Oryzaephilus surinamensis management in wheat (Ghasemzadeh et al ., ). These treatments are effective and eco‐friendly techniques in pest management programmes (Valizadegan et al ., ) due to advantages, such as high‐throughput system can be amenable to grains without affecting their nutritional values and their broad range application for all kinds of storage pests in almost all stages of growth and development. Besides their beneficial aspects, these techniques have some limitations, such as their high‐capital cost and loss of seed viability due to irradiation.…”

Bruchids (Callosobruchus spp.) are recognised as the most detrimental storage pest of pulses, especially in the tropics and subtropics. They invade matured pods as well as seeds during storage and, to some extent, farming fields, in turn reducing the net yield of the crops. Several approaches including cultural, biological, physical and chemical control measures have been implemented with the aim of managing these pests, but none of these have been successful across time and space. Recently, transgenic-and marker-assisted breeding approaches have appeared as promising tools for the successful management of these pests. Although some efforts have been made on the development of bruchid-resistant transgenic crops, the cultivars developed are yet to be commercialised worldwide because of various limitations. In contrast, marker-assisted breeding involving the identification of DNA-based markers linked to host resistance against bruchids, have shown some success in the quest for the development of bruchid-resistant cultivar(s). DNA markers linked to bruchid resistance have been identified in various grain legumes, particularly in the genus Vigna, and include mung bean (Vigna radiata), azuki bean (Vigna angularis), rice bean (Vigna umbellata), cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and black gram (Vigna mungo). After their validation in different genetic backgrounds, these markers could be utilised for marker-assisted selection and breeding ventures to protect pulse crops. The present study discusses the pros and cons of different approaches for the successful management of the bruchid pests in pulses. The review also highlights about the integrative approach aided with molecular interventions to improve productivity by avoiding losses incurred due to bruchids, and to attain sustainable yields for major pulse crops.

“…Tireki et al (2006) observed that during infrared assisted microwave drying, microwave energy was about nine times more effective than that of infrared. Valizadegan et al (2009) reported that combination of microwave radiation and cold storage is highly compatible and synergistic for the management of O. surinamensis.…”

Microwave technology for disinfestation of cereals and pulses: An overview

Contamination of stored grain with insects, insect fragments, fungi, and mycotoxins is a major concern of the grain industry. The stored-grain insects affect the grains not only quantitatively but also qualitatively. Disinfestation of grains can be achieved by physical, chemical and thermal methods. Microwaves may be an alternate to chemical methods of killing insects in grain as their application do not leave any undesirable residues and thus might be very effective for controlling insect infestation compared to other available methods. Microwave disinfestation can provide a continuous process to allow large quantities of products to pass in a shorter period of time. Microwave disinfestation is considered safe and competitive alternative method to fumigation as it avoids environmental pollution. The aim of this review is to examine how the use of microwave treatment benefits grain producers, handlers, and processors seeking to use non-chemical methods for preventing and controlling insect infestation and fungal growth during storage.
