AB  - Progeny numbers and life parameters of Tribolium castaneum reared on a range of different animal feeds which varied in their protein-carbohydrate ratios (corn starch; corn feed flour; wheat bran; soybean meal; corn gluten; soy protein concentrate and soy protein isolate), four initial (population) densities (1, 2, 5 and 10 insect pairs) were evaluated. Adult insects were kept for seven days on a range of different diets to feed and oviposit before they were removed. After removing the adults, the emerging progeny were examined. The study found T. castaneum offspring could not develop on a carbohydrate-rich diet (corn starch) and on protein-rich diets (corn gluten, soy protein concentrate and soy protein isolate). Soy isolate showed a high, possibly insecticidal effect on parents. The fastest total development (egg to adult) (23.25–23.88 days, depending on the initial density), the highest offspring number (111.63–324.13) and the highest offspring body mass (1.38–1.73 mg) were recorded in wheat bran, while the slowest egg to adult development (35.13–37.88 days), the lowest offspring number (25–29) and the lowest offspring mass (1.04–1.48 mg) were recorded in soybean meal. The higher initial densities caused the eclosion period to be prolonged, reductions in female productivity and in offspring body mass on all diets. Initial density interacted differently with diet type in terms of offspring number, so as the density rose, the number of offspring in wheat bran and corn feed flour increased, while in soybean meal it remained low at all initial densities. This research gives us a better insight into the development of T. castaneum in animal feed that can help us to improve existing pest management in a way of finding a better solution to store products based on their susceptibility to this storage pest.

AB  - Tribolium castaneumis one of the most economically important insects that damages stored products. The effects of several infested or uninfested raw feed materials (wheat bran, coarse wheat meal, corn feed flour), feed products (compound feed for pigs and for laying hens) and flour mixed with brewer's yeast on the food-searching behaviour ofT. castaneumadults were studied in a total of 48 combinations. Preference and olfactometer tests revealed that all the tested uninfested and intraspecific infested substrates were significantly more attractive toT. castaneumthan the control (represented by part of an arena or olfactometer arm without substrate). We determined that all infested substrates were 2-9 times more attractive than uninfested in the preference test, while in the olfactometer test, they were 3-8 times more attractive. In comparing the attractiveness of the infested and uninfested substrates, in both tests wheat bran was found to be the most attractive substrate toT. castaneumadults and coarse wheat meal the least. The results of the present study contribute to our knowledge of how raw feed materials and products influence the behaviour ofT. castaneumand their susceptibility to infestation, and indicate the possible utilization of wheat bran in monitoring processes ofT. castaneumin pest management programmes.

AB  - Using a two-way olfactometer, the effects of the whole wheat grains and coarse wheat meal odors on the primary Sitophilus granarius (L.), S. oryzae (L.) and S. zeamais (Motch.) and secondary Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) and T. confusum (Du Val) stored-product pests behavior were examined. Whole wheat grains and coarse wheat meal were used in uninfested and infested form. Whole wheat grains were infested with S. oryzae adults and coarse wheat meal with T. castaneum adults. The odors of infested wheat grains depending on the insect species were 1.9 to 3 times more attractive than the uninfested wheat grains odors, except for the T. castaneum for whome the odors of infested and uninfested grains were equally attractive (p = 0.641). The greatest difference in the attractiveness of the infested and uninfested wheat grains odors was found for T. confusum (3 times longer in the arm with the odors of infested grain), and the smallest for S. granarius (1.9 times). We found that all primary and secondary stored-product pests, depending on the species, were 1.4 - 2.4 times more attracted to the odors of infested compared to the odors of uninfested wheat meal. The greatest difference in the atraction of infested and uninfested coarse wheat meal odors was recorded for the T. confusum, whose adults were 2.4 times longer in the arm with the odors of infested coarse wheat meal than in the arm with odors of uninfested wheat meal, while the smallest difference (1.4 times) was recorded for S. oryzae. The results of this study give a significant contribution to a better understanding of the storage insects behavior, which could be used in the design of new methods of monitoring of their presence in stored products.

Pšenica u zrnu i pšenična prekrupa korišćeni su u neinfestiranom i infestiranom obliku, s tim da su zrna pšenice bila infestirana adultima S.oryzae a prekrupa adultima T. castaneum. Miris infestirane pšenice u zrnu je bio u zavisnosti od insekatske vrste od 1,9 do 3,0 puta atraktivniji od mirisa neinfestirane pšenice, osim za adulte T. castaneum za koje je bio podjednako privlačan (p=0,641). Najveća razlika u atraktivnosti mirisa infestirane i neinfestirane pšenice je zabeležena kod T. confusum (3 puta više vremena u kraku sa mirisom infestiranog zrna), a najmanja kod S. granarius (1,9 puta). Sve primarne i sekundarne štetočine su u zavisnosti od vrste bile od 1,4 - 2,4 puta više privučene mirisom infestirane, nego mirisom neinfestirane pšenične prekrupe.

AB  - Residual efficacy of the insecticide deltamethrin, an EC formulation containing 25 g/L AI + 225 g/L PBO (piperonyl butoxide synergist), against lab populations of Sitophilus oryzae, Rhyzopertha dominica, Tribolium castaneum and Sitotroga cerealella was investigated in the laboratory by applying product water solutions (0.25 mg AI/kg) to wheat grain (at 25±1°C and 60±5% r.h.). Adult mortality on 0, 7, 14 and 30 days old deposits was estimated after 2, 7 and 14 days of exposure to treated wheat grain and additional 7 days of recovery. Progeny reduction (PR, %) was also assessed. After 2 days of exposure to deposits of all ages, deltamethrin caused only 0-10% mortality of coleopterans (up to 37% after the recovery period) and 23-30% of S. cerealella, while mortality before and after recovery from 14 days of exposure was 95-50% for S. oryzae, 97-100% for R. dominica, 99-100% for T. castaneum and 100% for S. cerealella. Progeny production of S. oryzae was highest after parents contacted with 14 days old deposit of deltamethrin (PR, 76%), and lowest after contact with fresh deposit (PR, 95%), while R. dominica and T. castaneum had no progeny on any deltamethrin deposit age in wheat (PR, 100%), and S. cerealella had only a very low progeny (PR, 99%). The results showed that the synergised deltamethrin, applied at 0.25 mg/kg in wheat grain, is a highly effective insecticide for stored-product insect control, while a higher dose is required for successful residual control of S. oryzae.

Smrtnost adulta na depozitima starosti 0, 7, 14 i 30 dana je utvrđivana posle 2, 7 i 14 dana izlaganja u tretiranoj pšenici i 7 dana oporavka adulta (izuzev S. cerealella) u netretiraoj pšenici. Takođe je utvrđivana i produkcija potomstva izlaganih roditelja (PR, %). Posle 2 dana izlaganja bez obzira na starost depozita, deltametrin je prouzrokovao 0-10% smrtnosti tvrdokrilaca (posle oporavka do 37%) i 23-30% smrtnosti S. cerealella, dok je posle 14 dana izlaganja smrtnost S. oryzae pre i posle perioda oporavka bila 95-50%, R. dominica 97-100%, T. castaneum 99-100% i S. cerealella 100%. Najveći broj potomaka S. oryzae je utvrđen posle kontakta roditelja sa 14 dana starim depozitom deltametrina (PR, 76%), a najmanji posle kontakta sa svežim depozitom (PR, 95%), dok u tretiranoj pšenici, bez obzira na starost depozita, nije bilo potomaka R. dominica i T. castaneum (PR, 100%), dok je kod S. cerealella zabeležen mali broj potomaka (PR, 99%). Na osnovu dobijenih rezultata može se zaključiti da je sinergizovani deltametrin primenjen u količini 0,25 mg/kg pšenice visoko efektivan u suzbijanju skladišnih insekata, dok je za dužu zaštitu pšenice od S. oryzae potrebno primeniti veću dozu ovog insekticida.

Najveći broj potomaka S. oryzae je utvrđen posle kontakta roditelja sa 14 dana starim depozitom deltametrina (PR, 76%), a najmanji posle kontakta sa svežim depozitom (PR, 95%), dok u tretiranoj pšenici, bez obzira na starost depozita, nije bilo potomaka R. dominica i T. castaneum (PR, 100%), dok je kod S. cerealella zabeležen mali broj potomaka (PR, 99%). Na osnovu dobijenih rezultata može se zaključiti da je sinergizovani deltametrin primenjen u količini 0,25 mg/kg pšenice visoko efektivan u suzbijanju skladišnih insekata, dok je za dužu zaštitu pšenice od S. oryzae potrebno primeniti veću dozu ovog insekticida.",

AB  - The effects of population densities (10, 25, 50 and 100 adults/50 g) and three diet types (protein-rich, carbohydrates-rich and compound feed) on life parameters (first emergence, development rate, number of progeny and body weight) of T. castaneum progeny were assessed. For each diet type and population density unsexed adults were allowed to feed and oviposit for 7 days before removal. No progeny developed on protein-rich diets (sunflower meal, soybean concentrate, and corn gluten). In carbohydrates-rich diets (corn feed flour, wheat bran, coarse wheat) and compound feed for pigs and laying hens, first adults required the least time to emerge in wheat bran and control diet (wheat flour + 5% yeast) (15.2-16.5 days), and the longest in corn feed flour (23.1-24.5 days). In wheat bran and control diets, the adult emergence period was the shortest (15.7 and 15.2 days) at the initial population densities of 100 and 50 adults/50 g, and significantly longest (16.5 and 16 days) at the lowest density. Conversely, adults fed on feed for hens diet emerged the latest, after 22.5 days, at the population density of 100 adults/50 g, and the earliest, after 18.6 days, at 25 adults/50 g. The shortest period of adult emergence at all population densities was found in the control (15.9-20.2 days) and wheat bran (18 -29.7 days), and the longest in feed for hens (56.2 days) and pigs (59.5 days) at the highest population density. Considering all densities, number of progeny were the highest in control diet (498-1226 adults) and wheat bran (354-1344 adults), and lowest in coarse wheat (220-300 adults). With increasing population density, progeny body weight decreased, and the highest weight was found in control diet and wheat bran (1.7 and 1.6 mg) at the lowest population density, and the lowest weight (1.0 mg) in hen and pig feeds at the highest density.

AB  - Behavior bioassays were conducted in the laboratory (23 ± 1°C and 50 ± 5% r.h.) using the olfactometer to determine the effects of essential oils of three plant species in the Cymbopogon genus (Lemongrass), Cymbopogon nervatus, C. proximus and C. schoenanthus, on adults of Tribolium castaneum. The effect of essential oils was compared to a commercial biopesticide based on azadirachtin at three concentrations (0.0001, 0.001 and 0.01%). The results showed that all essential oils and the azadirachtin-based biopesticide had significant (p  lt 0.05) repellent effects on T. castaneum adults at all tested concentrations, except C. proximus essential oil which showed a neutral effect at the lowest concentration. The highest concentrations of the essential oils of C. nervatus and C. proximus had significantly stronger repellent effects (p  lt 0.05) than the lowest concentration. At the concentrations of 0.0001 and 0.001% all tested essential oils and azadirachtin showed a similar repellent effect without statistically significant difference, whereas the oil of C. nervatus had the highest repellent effect on adults of T. castaneum at the 0.01% concentration. Considering all tested variations, the essential oils of plants of the genus Cymbopogon showed similar or stronger repellent effects on T. castaneum adults than the biopesticide based on azadirachtin.

Uticaj etarskih ulja na ponašanje kestenjastog brašnara, poređen je sa uticajem biopesticida na bazi azadirahtina u tri koncentracije: 0.0001, 0.001 i 0.01%. Rezultati testiranja pokazali su da sva etarska ulja i biopesticid na bazi azadirahtina u svim ispitivanim koncentracijama ispoljavaju statistički značajan odbijajući uticaj - repelentni efekat na adulte kestenjastog brašnara, osim najniže koncentracije ulja iz biljke C. proximus koja je ispoljila neutralan efekat na brašnara. Najviša koncentracija ulja iz biljaka C. nervatus i C. proximus je ispoljila statistički značajno jači repelentni efekat u odnosu na najnižu koncentraciju. Sva ispitivana etarska ulja i azadirahtin su u koncentracijama 0.0001 i 0.001% ispoljila sličan repelentni efekat bez statistički značajne razlike, dok je ulje iz biljke C. nervatus u koncentraciji 0.01% prouzrokovalo statistički značajno jači repelentni efekat na adulte kestenjastog brašnara u odnosu na ostale ispitivane supstance. Na osnovu rezultata istraživanja sa adultima kestenjastog brašnara može se zaključiti da su etarska ulja iz tri vrste biljaka iz roda Cymbopogon ispoljila sličan i/ili jači repelentni efekat od biopesticida na bazi azadirahtina.

AB  - We examined the acceptance and palatability of baits containing different contents of sodium selenite as a rodenticide, in Swiss mice under laboratory conditions. In a no-choice and choice feeding test, the animals were exposed to baits containing 0.1, 0.05, 0.025 and 0.0125% of sodium selenite. The total bait consumption by Swiss mice in the no-choice feeding test was highly negatively correlated, while total sodium selenite intake was medium-positively correlated to the sodium selenite content in the bait. In the same test, daily intakes significantly depended on the content of sodium selenite in the bait, while the exposure and associated interactions of contents of sodium selenite and exposure had no statistically significant impact. Baits with sodium selenite contents of 0.05 and 0.1% had the most lethal effects. The negative impact of the sodium selenite content on bait acceptance and palatability was confirmed in choice feeding tests. Baits containing 0.05 and 0.1% of sodium selenite displayed the biological potential to be used as a rodenticide. It is necessary to improve its insufficient acceptability and palatability by adding adequate additives to the bait. The results of this study should be verified in experiments with wild rodents.

AB  - This study was aimed to assess the levels of selected heavy metals and pesticides in soil and plant products from an agricultural area of Belgrade, Serbia and to indicate possible sources and risks of contamination. Soil, vegetable, and fruit samples from the most important agricultural city areas were collected from July to November of 2006. Metal contents were determined by atomic absorption spectrometry, whereas pesticide residues were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry after extraction performed using solid-phase microextraction technique. Soil characterization based on the determination of selected physical and chemical properties revealed heterogeneous soils belonging to different soil groups. The concentrations of lead, cadmium, copper, and zinc in soil samples do not exceed the limits established by national and international regulations. Residues of the herbicide atrazine were detected in three soil samples, with levels lower than the relevant limit. The presence of other herbicides, namely prometryn, chloridazon, acetochlor, flurochloridone, and napropamide, was registered in some soil samples as well. Among the insecticides investigated in the soil, fenitrothion and chlorpyrifos were the only ones detected. In most of the investigated vegetable samples from the Obrenovac area, Pb and Cd contents are higher in comparison with the maximum levels, indicating the emission of coal combustion products from local thermal power plants as a possible source of contamination. Residue levels of some herbicides and insecticides (metribuzin, trifluralin, pendimethalin, bifenthrin, chlorpyrifos, and cypermethrin) determined in tomato, pepper, potato, and onion samples from Slanci, Ova, and Obrenovac areas are even several times higher than the maximum residue levels. Inappropriate use of these plant protection products is considered to be the most probable reason of contamination. Because increased levels of heavy metals and pesticide residues found in plant products could pose a risk to consumers' health, their continual monitoring before product distribution to city markets is indispensable.
