CEREAL TYPE INFLUENCE ON THE INSECTICIDAL PROPERTY OF DIATOMACEOUS EARTH AGAINST CONFUSED FLOUR BEETLE. TRIBOLIUM CONFUSUM (HERBST)
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
The present article aims to present the influence of grain on the insecticidal efficacy of diatomaceous earth (DE) formulations applied in two stored products (wheat and barley), on adults of Tribolium confusum (Jacquelin du Val) (Coleoptera Tenebrionidae). The formulations used in the laboratory trials were two local DE's deposits from Romania (Buzau-Patarlagele and Adamclisi) which have been campared with the commercial types of SilicoSec and PyriSec. The DE's have been at the dose rates of 100, 300, 500 and 900 ppm and mortality of the exposed adults was recorded after 7. 14 and 21 days of exposure.
