“…These commodities are typically stored for various durations of time and require protection against insect and mite pests. Due to pest damage, unprotected grain storage usually leads to reduction in the weight and value of grain along with the germination decline of seeds (Moino et al, 1998;Padin et al, 2002;Haq et al, 2005;Stejskal et al, 2015). Although the use of synthetic insecticides to control stored-grain pest populations has been widespread (Athanassiou & Palyvos, 2006), the practice has been challenged due to various undesirable consequences including pest resistance to the chemicals (Arthur, 1996), residue accumulation in grain (Ferizli et al, 2005), and detrimental effects on humans and the environment (Michalaki et al, 2007).…”

SummaryNaturally occurring fungal pathogens of stored-grain insect pests were identified and quantified using different insect sampling techniques in wheat and maize storage facilities in Central and South Anatolia in Turkey. Storage facilities were sampled by probing, trapping and visual inspection in five cities (Şanlıurfa, Kahramanmaraş, Adana, Mersin and Konya) from June to November 2013. Entomopathogenic fungi recovered from dead insects were identified to species level by sequencing the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region of the genomic DNA. Of the three species isolated, the majority were Beauveria bassiana (97 isolates), followed by Purpureocillium lilacinum (20 isolates). The third species, Beauveria varroae (9 isolates), is the first record on stored-product pest insects. Thirty-five isolates were from Tribolium spp., 29 from Sitophilus spp., 24 from Cryptolestes ferrugineus, 22 from Rhyzopertha dominica, 8 from Oryzaephilus surinamensis, 4 from Trogoderma granarium, 3 from Latheticus oryzae and 1 from a species of Cryptophagidae. The fungal infection of stored-grain pests did not vary significantly according to the time of sampling. A higher frequency of occurrence was recorded for Adana than the other cities and for Tribolium species than the other hosts. Grain samples taken by probing resulted in a higher frequency of fungal infection, but commodity type did not have a significant effect. The results demonstrated that (1) entomopathogenic fungi occurred at a low frequency, and (2) location, together with sampling technique, can affect their recovery. Further exploration of this ecosystem could yield important information for improving their use for management of stored-grain pests.

İzole edilen üç türün büyük çoğunluğu Beauveria bassiana (97 izolat) olup bunu Purpureocillium lilacinum (20 izolat) izlemiştir. Üçüncü tür ise Beauveria varroae (9 izolat)'dir ve depo zararlılarından ilk kayıttır. Tüm izolatların 35'i Tribolium spp., 29'u Sitophilus spp., 24'ü Cryptolestes ferrugineus, 22'si Rhyzopertha dominica, 8'i Oryzaephilus surinamensis, 4'ü Trogoderma granarium, 3'ü Latheticus oryzae ve birisi bir Cryptophagidae türünden izole edilmiştir. Depolanmış tahıl zararlılarında fungal enfeksiyonlar örnekleme zamanına göre önemli ölçüde değişmemiş, en yoğun olarak iller arasında Adana'da ve türler arasında da Tribolium türlerinde bulunmuştur. Sonda ile alınan tahıl örneklerinde fungal enfeksiyon daha yoğun tespit edilmiştir...

“…Wildey (2002) documented that rodents infested about 70% of the grain stores in the UK irrespective of type showing that this group of pests belongs among the most persistent stored product pests. In Europe there are three main rodents species occurring stores and food premises (Klosterman and Mager, 2014;Stejskal et al, 2015). The ranking of pest rodents according to their world-wide importance proposed by Capizzi et al (2014) placed the Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus Berk.)…”

Aulicky R., Kolar V., Plachy J., Stejskal V. (2017): Field efficacy of brief exposure of adults of six storage pests to nitrogen-controlled atmospheres. Plant Protect. Sci., 53: 169-176.The efficacy of a brief exposure (1, 7, and 10 days) to a nitrogen-controlled atmosphere (N-CA) for major storage pests in a field validation study in the Czech Republic is reported. The main goal was to estimate how quickly the mobile adult stages of six species of storage beetles (oryzaephilus surinamensis, cryptolestes ferrugineus, tribolium confusum, tribolium castaneum, Sitophilus granarius, and Sitophilus oryzae) are killed after introduction of the infested commodity to prevent their further spread to the surrounding storage bins. The trials were conducted in a metal bin containing 25 t of seeds using the system of continual top-down nitrogen filling to replace the oxygen. The composition of N-CA in the silo was measured continually. The target N-CA concentration (i.e., ≤ 1% O 2 and 99% N 2 ) was reached at the bottom of the silo after 12 h of the purging phase of nitrogen silo filling. A one-day exposure to N-CA corresponds to top-down filling, which initially gives higher concentrations of N 2 in the upper than in the lower part of the silo: low efficacy was reached at the silo bottom (0-33.3%), while higher efficacy (16.7-100%) was reached at the top of the silo bin. The mortality variation at both locations was species dependent: the most sensitive was o. surinamensis, and the least sensitive were S. granarius and S. oryzae. Seven days of N-CA exposure led to 100% mortality of all tested species except for S. granarius (96.7% mortality at the bottom), while 10 days of N-CA exposure led to 100% mortality of all adults located at both the bottom and the top of the silo. This experiment showed that one day of exposure to N-CA caused significant mortality to reduce the spread of insects from the top of the silo but not from the silo bottom, and 10 days of exposure completely prevent the adult mobile pest stages of all tested species from spreading from the treated silo and causing cross-infestation in the storage facility.
