The objectives were to determine the effective doses of neem seed powder, citrus peel powder and their oil extracts and to evaluate some improved varieties and land races of sorghum for their resistance to maize weevil. Treatments were arranged in CRD replicated four times. Fifty unsexed 3-6 days old maize weevil adults were introduced to each glass jar containing 0.1kg muyra-2 seed. In the first botanical study, neem seed and citrus peel oils each at five rates of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5 ml, Malathion 5% dust and acetone treated control were evaluated. The results indicated that, all of the parameters analyzed at all rates of the botanical oils showed significant difference over the acetone treated control except for F1 progeny emergence and weight loss at 0.25 ml NSO. The botanical oils at rates of 0.75, 1 and 1.5 ml NSO and 1.5 ml CPO per 100 g sorghum produced adult weevil mortality in the range of 91.25-100% and seed protection of 83-100% similar to that of the positive control. For the same botanical oil rates weevil emergence, seed damage and weight losses were statistically at par with Malathion 5% dust. However, sorghum seeds treated with botanical oils showed a significant reduction in germination compared to Malathion 5% dust.

The field surveys covered the districts Fedis, Grawa, Haramaya, Jarso, Kersa, Kombolcha and Meta of eastern Ethiopia. The 2014 result revealed that the pest was confined only in Haramaya district. A similar survey conducted in August 2015 revealed the geographic expansion of the pest to other areas of eastern Ethiopia, viz., Dire Dawa Administration, Kersa, Kombolcha and Fedis districts. The spider mite, which is commonly known as red spider mite, was identified as Tetranychus utricae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae). This is the first record of the pest infesting potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) in Ethiopia. In addition to potato, the pest infested tomato, cucumber and other Solanaceous weeds growing within and around potato fields. It was observed that the pest causes quantitative crop damage by sucking the plant fluids. The pest develops very rapidly on potato plants causing quick leaf-fall and death of the infested plants. Farmers were unable to manage the pest with the conventional agricultural pesticides available on the local markets.

stages.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/41389923/Updated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of_the_Acrapex_albivena_Hampson_","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2019-12-22T07:40:28.012-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":61582320,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582320/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Updated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of_the_Acrapex_albivena_Hampson.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582320/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5NSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Updated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582320/Updated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of_the_Acrapex_albivena_Hampson-libre.pdf?1577031502=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DUpdated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of.pdf\u0026Expires=1732362860\u0026Signature=P0cZj433S7pf1rob1V6530VTyv79EI0RgHwVApH0VcpxPKTWuExgXvkwL46QCpSrwG9gHtIvjTR8Wx7nYyJ1GTXCiekRz-jnmGgFPn~9CaJOtBTBecth6NwFZsrOyH833NaPs3rnlVf1p8G1ulRhjPItZXoihlHW8RqnomU0QTg0lak9o7SUtgHGWVk1ltS9WVsDzBKb4mNUfkhCf~DDMryahuw7puixB7es9nC49bN3g1yOB1nQhke1Sk6awKs6PUhYYIOauWuBuu81Al~Fi9q40IO0o2fGqt4ITCPw0le-6-3aZEnST0YnKREmoKj7oOT1eX9AY3jOhHsq-76c1w__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"},{"id":61582300,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582300/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Updated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of_the_Acrapex_albivena_Hampson20191222-71485-19fx3zm.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582300/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5NSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Updated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582300/Updated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of_the_Acrapex_albivena_Hampson20191222-71485-19fx3zm-libre.pdf?1577031491=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DUpdated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of.pdf\u0026Expires=1732362860\u0026Signature=Tu0jjSsYzJmC~S~6FMIHEHmjkJcW8dRd6kb49baswcBOfu6cBpjwPPG3FVahiSNWUr5meM3bll4KsTd2DZRg9tDOsID1Kn0xc8xDzG6~Wdom05Ghfix3NgVzYnP2vDqNUVE~8Z7fdZxpmNtMGjz3C9lDcQkedfFCUnN5W2faT7hzCzmRzsUSJLYeJUpeXNWWckBop1LQxYMboTadfgzsHyxmTxEIZ7St4iifi4tEBWLAtXeMGFORpmEsH8rfcu43~Xa6PW5dJDFBcwr9Ob4BpPDHK3nFPthZhaakVubR5TzacH0HAfjkrCtP7CeVdODXdfJnuJp--gZTtE08LK6pFg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Updated_phylogenetic_and_systematics_of_the_Acrapex_albivena_Hampson_","translated_slug":"","page_count":31,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken

Treatments were arranged in CRD replicated four times. Fifty unsexed 3-6 days old maize weevil adults were introduced to each glass jar containing 0.1kg muyra-2 seed.

The botanical oils at rates of 0.75, 1 and 1.5 ml NSO and 1.5 ml CPO per 100 g sorghum produced adult weevil mortality in the range of 91.25-100% and seed protection of 83-100% similar to that of the positive control.

With the exception of Chilo partellus (Swinhoe), which was accidentally introduced into Africa, the other stemborer pests are indigenous to the continent and have co-evolved with native grasses and sedges. In addition to pest species, wild habitats harbour diverse non-economic stemborer species, some of which are new to science. However, the diversity and distribution of both non-economic and pest species of stemborer are currently mostly unknown in Botswana. Accordingly, country-wide surveys were conducted during 2014/15 and 2015/16 austral summer to determine species diversity and distribution in cultivated and wild host plants of stemborers in Botswana. A total of 1597 stemborer larvae and 228 pupae were collected, constituting 63.1 and 36.9 larvae and 84.8 and 15.2% pupae from cultivated versus wild habitats, respectively. In addition to C. partellus, Sesamia calamistis Hampson and Eldana saccharina Walker which were previously reported, 12 more stemborer species were recorded for the first time in Botswana, including nine undescribed species. These species were from the Sciomesa, Sesamia and Conicofrontia genera and Tortricidae and Pyralidae families. Fourteen wild host and two cultivated host plant species of stemborers were recorded. Chilo partellus was most abundant (89.5%) in cultivated habitats whilst E. saccharina (33.6%) was most abundant in wild habitats. Stemborer species diversity was higher in wild habitats than cultivated. Current results highlight the significance of wild, especially wetland habitats for ecological functions and conservation of lepidopteran stemborer biodiversity.","grobid_abstract_attachment_id":61582188},"translated_abstract":null,"internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/41389814/Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2019-12-22T07:15:01.766-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":61582188,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582188/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana20191222-5511-czve3y.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582188/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopter.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582188/Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana20191222-5511-czve3y-libre.pdf?1577030629=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DDiversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopter.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443595\u0026Signature=d4S1p0KMGkJCEHGuak5b9SUJU494dJf55cdMPdpYks6U8d6lbPskUItv5El3NU9WWm9xOtlZVUw3mldOIT9I6U~bX54nhbWZs11iqikBYRNcSQLDH~eM5C~gbcOeOyygHI41RUK4kETItwx0krP8vvgrSYCBzfY0csQWzFVrYIHpeQ4txsTYaHXLQeJn6d1vgQg~a7zsg0r~nbxtSqebQCfZgyJ~5f8BR5Z~1BDDaxmav3109bKzVk60A3yqkQyk1wUeRt7jVBwOaU2rrjUBsLCwOQOEt6y0IaE1ojhB4EmevYwiIfOoVNqnmX-07RoJ8KpclNAS9qLa8mqW-ddvaA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana","translated_slug":"","page_count":17,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":61582188,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582188/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana20191222-5511-czve3y.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582188/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopter.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582188/Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana20191222-5511-czve3y-libre.pdf?1577030629=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DDiversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopter.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443595\u0026Signature=d4S1p0KMGkJCEHGuak5b9SUJU494dJf55cdMPdpYks6U8d6lbPskUItv5El3NU9WWm9xOtlZVUw3mldOIT9I6U~bX54nhbWZs11iqikBYRNcSQLDH~eM5C~gbcOeOyygHI41RUK4kETItwx0krP8vvgrSYCBzfY0csQWzFVrYIHpeQ4txsTYaHXLQeJn6d1vgQg~a7zsg0r~nbxtSqebQCfZgyJ~5f8BR5Z~1BDDaxmav3109bKzVk60A3yqkQyk1wUeRt7jVBwOaU2rrjUBsLCwOQOEt6y0IaE1ojhB4EmevYwiIfOoVNqnmX-07RoJ8KpclNAS9qLa8mqW-ddvaA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Possible reasons for the host plant expansion and its implications to commercial sugarcane production in the country are discussed.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/41389777/Clarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2019-12-22T07:05:50.070-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":61582151,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582151/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C._sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis20191222-31539-mq0onz.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582151/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_po.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582151/Clarifying_the_source_of_C._sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis20191222-31539-mq0onz.pdf?1577027140=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DClarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_po.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443596\u0026Signature=ciC1uOHYzkVD9nc25vqaW5jjcWLpKJdROwRsLzAGDG1w~4irF0G~4GCq4QEOW-iF3ms58U2klT1RKrb1-39H5Fvpd8pqv8QNTwyK9rMQzxxUavQEnZRbIavapjt3mRZWCKyt-00rVZUEozSsNBqX9hrstLjMy9YWZYMo5TVZ7GAJnmrEhAIN~cx2JYKtohYbd7Tl3ZjuWTIoT7Y-ydV8qy4sjwU25qpMMhC9IkWhPzOkMjh3b1YDyLApq~zrK7PMKEU9RtoF8AEycSLC42B-MiZPKIa2uI3FW8Ys0oigTP9Z9UcpGMp1~4aIaprzWjT2v2wtRQH1bdfhHTbfdyvk7A__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis","translated_slug":"","page_count":13,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":61582151,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582151/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C._sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis20191222-31539-mq0onz.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582151/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_po.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582151/Clarifying_the_source_of_C._sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis20191222-31539-mq0onz.pdf?1577027140=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DClarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_po.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443596\u0026Signature=ciC1uOHYzkVD9nc25vqaW5jjcWLpKJdROwRsLzAGDG1w~4irF0G~4GCq4QEOW-iF3ms58U2klT1RKrb1-39H5Fvpd8pqv8QNTwyK9rMQzxxUavQEnZRbIavapjt3mRZWCKyt-00rVZUEozSsNBqX9hrstLjMy9YWZYMo5TVZ7GAJnmrEhAIN~cx2JYKtohYbd7Tl3ZjuWTIoT7Y-ydV8qy4sjwU25qpMMhC9IkWhPzOkMjh3b1YDyLApq~zrK7PMKEU9RtoF8AEycSLC42B-MiZPKIa2uI3FW8Ys0oigTP9Z9UcpGMp1~4aIaprzWjT2v2wtRQH1bdfhHTbfdyvk7A__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

However, its pest status varies across its distribution range. It is a major pest of maize in Europe and of sugarcane in Iran. In Africa, it is a major pest of maize in West Africa but not considered as a pest in East Africa. Recent surveys conducted in 2015 recorded S. nonagrioides to be a major pest of sugarcane in Ethiopia and reported the species for the first time in Botswana, outside its known geographic range. The genetic relationship of these records with the previously recorded population of S. nonagrioides was investigated using the cytochrome oxidase subunit I region of the mitochondrial genome. In total, 113 individuals across the geographic range of the species were analyzed and 63 haplotypes were identified. Phylogenetic analysis separated the populations into two clades with no distinct geographic distribution pattern. The genetic differentiation was also not associated with host plants and geographic distances. Results of the molecular analysis revealed the long-time establishment of S. nonagrioides population in Botswana and identified the newly recorded sugarcane population from Ethiopia as part of the wild host population in the country. The phylogeographic patterns observed among population of S. nonagrioides have probably been shaped by Pleistocene&#39;s climatic oscillations and geographic range expansions from different refugia with secondary contact and admixture.

Except for Chilo partellus, the other stem borer pests in Ethiopia are indigenous to Africa and are assumed to have coevolved with some native grasses and sedges in the natural habitat. In addition to pest species, natural habitats harbour diverse non‐economic stem borer species, some of which are new to science. However, with the growing threats to natural habitats, some non‐economic stem borer species may switch or expand their host ranges to include cultivated crops and evolve as “new” pests. Besides host switch, some of the unknown species currently limited to natural habitats may disappear. We examined the diversity, abundance and interactions of lepidopteran stem borers and their wild host plants in five different vegetation mosaics in Ethiopia. The stem borer species diversity varied among vegetation mosaics and host plants. Forty‐four stem borer species belonging to 14 different genera in the families of Noctuidae, Crambidae, Pyralidae and Tortricidae were recorded from 34 wild host plants and through light trap. Among these families, Noctuidae was the highest in species richness in which 31 species were identified, out of which 15 species and two genera were new to science. This paper discusses the ecological interpretation of host plant–stem borer species interactions, particularly in relation to habitat disturbances.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="39906617"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="39906617"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 39906617; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=39906617]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=39906617]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 39906617; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='39906617']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 39906617, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=39906617]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":39906617,"title":"Diversity and abundance of lepidopteran stem borers and their host plants in Ethiopia","translated_title":"","metadata":{"doi":"10.1111/jen.12489","abstract":"Lepidopteran stem borers are among the most important insect pests of maize, sorghum and sugarcane in sub‐Saharan Africa.

Field surveys of stem-borer natural enemies and associated host plants were conducted during the austral summers of 2014/15 and 2015/16 on natural and cultivated habitats across Botswana to determine their diversity and relative abundance. In cultivated habitats, the most common parasitoids of larvae were Cotesia flavipes Cameron, C. sesamiae (Cameron), and of pupae, Pediobius furvus Gahan and Gambroides nimbipennis Seyrig. In natural habitats, the larval parasitoids Chelonus curvimaculatus Cameron and Goniozus indicus Ashmead were recorded, along with the pupal parasitoid, Dentichasmias busseolae Heinrich. Furthermore, the predatory ants Linepithema humile Mayr, Crematogaster peringueyi Emery and Aenictus species were recorded in both cultivated and natural habitats. The major cultivated plants hosting stem-borers and related natural enemies were maize, sorghum, sweet sorghum, and the major wild plants were Echinochloa pyramidalis, Typha latifolia, Schoenoplectus corymbosus and Cyperus dives. Chilo partellus Swinhoe and Sesamia spp. were the major hosts for parasitoids, with C. partellus predominating in cultivated habitats and Sesamia jansei Tams &amp; Bowden in natural habitats. Larval parasitism ranged from 2.1 to 34.7% and 3.3 to 14.3% in cultivated and natural habitats respectively, whereas pupal parasitism ranged from 6.1 to 10.6% and 6.7 to 9.1%, respectively. Parasitoid percentage abundance ranged from 1.1 to 41.6% and 4.8 to 38.1% in cultivated and natural habitats respectively, with C. flavipes dominating in cultivated and C. curvimaculatus in natural habitats. Our results show that cultivated and natural environments in Botswana harbor a diverse natural enemy community worthy of conserving for stem-borer biological control.<br /><br />Keywords<br />Biological controlParasitoidsPredatorsPest managementTritrophic interaction</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="c116ec057f0ffb34df8560b640959568" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:54611687,&quot;asset_id&quot;:34753276,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/54611687/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34753276"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34753276"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34753276; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=34753276]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=34753276]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34753276; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='34753276']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 34753276, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "c116ec057f0ffb34df8560b640959568" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=34753276]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":34753276,"title":"Diversity and abundance of lepidopteran stem borer natural enemies in natural and cultivated habitats in Botswana","translated_title":"","metadata":{"doi":"10.1016/j.biocontrol.2017.09.003","volume":"115","abstract":"Lepidopteran stem-borers in Africa are attacked by diverse natural enemies in natural and cultivated environments.

Furthermore, research should focus on the damage potential of these nematode species on khat crop\nperformance to determine the economic threshold level and estimate a cost-benefit analysis on management practices.\nKey words: abundance, cropping pattern, distribution, khat, occurrence, prominence value.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/30202607/Occurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2016-12-01T09:12:53.804-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":50661150,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg","file_name":"Occurrence__distribution__and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50661150/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Occurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/50661150/Occurrence__distribution__and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat-libre.pdf?1480613199=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DOccurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443597\u0026Signature=AHU6O6LO6D1GrthQkluvOiQOTzYX52IEgzdv9JfhJQPne-ylGtrFZEIrdlTzswnNLDAprr11sKfK3-zd80cYaYoB4i4IKVGgZvc8TNTAeBSHj9WvGOrW58Tu-kU-h3vWp7vFv8Hdea12aeSq6VTnyDSXjkYQ0NtO~UwWERdgcpaV4p2~uVXWcObpZEghfDZur8Cr~CDZ3NBlr5msxsoasuA791IPTFn3Wz8gt~RHuZCNYDAveJDsOqhG-QaGXj4LOVP1sr4CvMnzifqaS-eHdWsLsAnR1SJ8xgL6iMEahEzXpEhRCXngWAPnvd6TEVAo8~hhnVsHaClWo5j1dL2Pew__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Occurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat","translated_slug":"","page_count":8,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":50661150,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg","file_name":"Occurrence__distribution__and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50661150/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Occurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/50661150/Occurrence__distribution__and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat-libre.pdf?1480613199=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DOccurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443597\u0026Signature=AHU6O6LO6D1GrthQkluvOiQOTzYX52IEgzdv9JfhJQPne-ylGtrFZEIrdlTzswnNLDAprr11sKfK3-zd80cYaYoB4i4IKVGgZvc8TNTAeBSHj9WvGOrW58Tu-kU-h3vWp7vFv8Hdea12aeSq6VTnyDSXjkYQ0NtO~UwWERdgcpaV4p2~uVXWcObpZEghfDZur8Cr~CDZ3NBlr5msxsoasuA791IPTFn3Wz8gt~RHuZCNYDAveJDsOqhG-QaGXj4LOVP1sr4CvMnzifqaS-eHdWsLsAnR1SJ8xgL6iMEahEzXpEhRCXngWAPnvd6TEVAo8~hhnVsHaClWo5j1dL2Pew__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Therefore, a study was conducted using pheromone traps to elucidate the occurrence of the insect pest and to monitor its population build-up in eastern Ethiopia.&nbsp; Pheromone traps were placed in the greenhouse for two months&nbsp; February - March 2014) and in the open-field tomato crops for one week<br />to monitor the tomato leaf miner moth. Examination of the traps was carried out at seven-day intervals, and the dispenser was replaced every 15 days. There was a linear increment in the number of captured moths during the surveyed time both in the greenhouse and in the open-field tomato crops. The number of moths captured ranged from 27 – 47 and 103 – 255 in the open-field and in the greenhouse, respectively. Thus, based on the examination of the traps, the presence of Tuta absoluta<br />was confirmed for the first time in eastern Ethiopia. In the greenhouse, the larvae of the tomato leaf<br />miner inflicted a heavy damage on young tomato plants. As a result, young plants died before<br />flowering. The results of the study have revealed that the pest is likely to cause heavy losses in tomato<br />crops on an unprecedented scale in the Eastern part of the country. Therefore, monitoring the pest in all tomato producing regions of the country is a vital step towards early detection and decision-making<br />to take integrated management measures against the outbreak of the infestation. <br /><br />Keywords: Larvae; Leaf Miner; Moth; Pheromone Trap; Population Dynamics; Pupation; Tomato;<br />Tuta absoluta</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="fb73d853ea33db9fa541fc7e5ddf4381" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:50660928,&quot;asset_id&quot;:30202363,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50660928/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="30202363"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="30202363"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 30202363; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=30202363]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=30202363]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 30202363; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='30202363']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 30202363, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "fb73d853ea33db9fa541fc7e5ddf4381" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=30202363]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":30202363,"title":"Occurrence and Population Dynamics of Tomato Leaf Miner [Tuta absoluta] in Eastern Ethiopia.pdf","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Abstract: The dangerous tomato leaf miner pest (Tuta absoluta), which was reported to have crossed into Ethiopia via the Sudan in 2012, has scared tomato producing farmers across the country.

Twenty-one sorghum varieties obtained from Haramaya University Sorghum Improvement Research Program were investigated for their relative resistance to S. zeamais attack. The Dobie index of susceptibility was used to group the varieties into different reaction categories. Among the twenty one sorghum varieties evaluated, only one variety, 'WB-77', was regarded as resistant to the weevil. All the remaining varieties were categorized as moderately resistant. Weevils reared on the resistant variety produced a few number of F 1 progeny (20.00), had a high median developmental time (42.00 days) and a low percentage of seed damage (2.67) and seed weight loss (0.30). Percentage seed damage and weight loss are significantly and positively correlated with the mean number of F 1 progeny emergence and are inversely associated with median developmental time. Consequently, those varieties with high number of F 1 progeny scored high percentage of seed damage and weight loss. These results indicated that high lysine content was found to be the predominant factor in sorghum resistance to S. zeamais.","grobid_abstract_attachment_id":34348741},"translated_abstract":null,"internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/7854580/Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_the_maize_weevil_Sitophilus_zeamais_Motschulsky_Coleoptera_Curculionidae","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2014-08-03T00:43:58.073-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[{"id":26296797,"work_id":7854580,"tagging_user_id":1104916,"tagged_user_id":null,"co_author_invite_id":5801398,"email":"k***e@yahoo.com","display_order":0,"name":"Ketema Belete","title":"Susceptibility of sorghum varieties to the maize weevil Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky (Coleoptera: Curculionidae"}],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":34348741,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/34348741/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_maize_weevil.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/34348741/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_t.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/34348741/Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_maize_weevil-libre.pdf?1407051828=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DSusceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_t.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443597\u0026Signature=JaPPH0a7Z2yM~gv5a0N9vNNjtQ0ZnEc5sYhHMwP7VLo1nAJRo6cPelTtAJcsEixj515D2igWiPEekwqhhVV7Izmk6EJGX4LG~DNdq8fxaeo5fLsKiBklMyYLxqkbr8GmQpKhnM-SFqdAdgpUnXuhx4XGJFqmkNYFnINW1l-mQeMg~bxq1lShd1ZSJMSXBW3HpT1hSjSOMBButr4YvU7nLm9KQHN8UWTKlQcYcqmIOAoCvod77gP~Tn86UxroKlA2xVINWq7Zh~fjGxlZheTmmohqqFqpOjwXPzp~qfcbHReMOsCZjtbqw0-d0o3rz1ZcOxZ7uJN0jxxadgy4NDY1Lg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_the_maize_weevil_Sitophilus_zeamais_Motschulsky_Coleoptera_Curculionidae","translated_slug":"","page_count":8,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":34348741,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/34348741/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_maize_weevil.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/34348741/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_t.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/34348741/Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_maize_weevil-libre.pdf?1407051828=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DSusceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_t.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443597\u0026Signature=JaPPH0a7Z2yM~gv5a0N9vNNjtQ0ZnEc5sYhHMwP7VLo1nAJRo6cPelTtAJcsEixj515D2igWiPEekwqhhVV7Izmk6EJGX4LG~DNdq8fxaeo5fLsKiBklMyYLxqkbr8GmQpKhnM-SFqdAdgpUnXuhx4XGJFqmkNYFnINW1l-mQeMg~bxq1lShd1ZSJMSXBW3HpT1hSjSOMBButr4YvU7nLm9KQHN8UWTKlQcYcqmIOAoCvod77gP~Tn86UxroKlA2xVINWq7Zh~fjGxlZheTmmohqqFqpOjwXPzp~qfcbHReMOsCZjtbqw0-d0o3rz1ZcOxZ7uJN0jxxadgy4NDY1Lg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":1037,"name":"Agronomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Agronomy"},{"id":10225,"name":"Agriculture","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Agriculture"},{"id":96098,"name":"Resistance","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Resistance"},{"id":243096,"name":"Insect Infestation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Insect_Infestation"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> </div><div class="profile--tab_content_container js-tab-pane tab-pane" data-section-id="1204884" id="papers"><div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="41434284"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/41434284/Evaluation_of_some_botanicals_oils_for_the_management_of_Maize_weevil_Sitophilus_zeamais_Motsch_Coleoptera_Curculionidae"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Evaluation of some botanicals oils for the management of Maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motsch.

The field surveys covered the districts Fedis, Grawa, Haramaya, Jarso, Kersa, Kombolcha and Meta of eastern Ethiopia. The 2014 result revealed that the pest was confined only in Haramaya district. A similar survey conducted in August 2015 revealed the geographic expansion of the pest to other areas of eastern Ethiopia, viz., Dire Dawa Administration, Kersa, Kombolcha and Fedis districts. The spider mite, which is commonly known as red spider mite, was identified as Tetranychus utricae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae). This is the first record of the pest infesting potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) in Ethiopia. In addition to potato, the pest infested tomato, cucumber and other Solanaceous weeds growing within and around potato fields.

Treatments were arranged in CRD replicated four times. Fifty unsexed 3-6 days old maize weevil adults were introduced to each glass jar containing 0.1kg muyra-2 seed.

The botanical oils at rates of 0.75, 1 and 1.5 ml NSO and 1.5 ml CPO per 100 g sorghum produced adult weevil mortality in the range of 91.25-100% and seed protection of 83-100% similar to that of the positive control.

These five species belong to a species complex<br />that we hereby define as the Acrapex minima group.

Further research is warranted to assess efficacy of these botanicals under farmer's storage condition.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/41389819/Evaluation_of_Neem_Seed_and_Citrus_Peel_Powder_for_the_Management_of_Maize_Weevil_Sitophilus_zeamais_Motsch_Coleoptera_Curculionidae_In_Sorghum","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2019-12-22T07:16:12.547-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":61582198,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582198/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Evaluation_of_need_seed_and_citrus_peel_powder_for_the_management_of_maize_weevil_PMJE20191222-71783-7bw70.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582198/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5NSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Evaluation_of_Neem_Seed_and_Citrus_Peel.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582198/Evaluation_of_need_seed_and_citrus_peel_powder_for_the_management_of_maize_weevil_PMJE20191222-71783-7bw70-libre.pdf?1577030632=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DEvaluation_of_Neem_Seed_and_Citrus_Peel.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443595\u0026Signature=flrmZx1JtHZxI5OyHENTWVRaFN98DtE5IeRAoDDBVZW3U4d0vDYUpBNMQVpQ45gDQQjQ-7WQah9oX8OJHpQh22yaqDGSxzxNqO6vk3MBHPvS6d61X4IymSPUl1Sh9P2Xj9NWJFQOR~ZbJdicg7ORuShrOJ~zD8Ae2o5eDX3~bDtRYlk8~jX9Ku2N2YjmMv8EcwPQkeTBeNldBH3wnf~sHR8r4T7cS7IV9T90EDuRqb2vAACh4gRXBYiduAR2l~yD66IaZshbA-jzqhzW~OXSaIZ8bxDhunM6TiYWsHxTDyaDyuoHDxblYENpS4Hk00murNbUdokRAbLcCwqNbGlWcg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Evaluation_of_Neem_Seed_and_Citrus_Peel_Powder_for_the_Management_of_Maize_Weevil_Sitophilus_zeamais_Motsch_Coleoptera_Curculionidae_In_Sorghum","translated_slug":"","page_count":14,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":61582198,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582198/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Evaluation_of_need_seed_and_citrus_peel_powder_for_the_management_of_maize_weevil_PMJE20191222-71783-7bw70.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582198/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5NSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Evaluation_of_Neem_Seed_and_Citrus_Peel.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582198/Evaluation_of_need_seed_and_citrus_peel_powder_for_the_management_of_maize_weevil_PMJE20191222-71783-7bw70-libre.pdf?1577030632=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DEvaluation_of_Neem_Seed_and_Citrus_Peel.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443595\u0026Signature=flrmZx1JtHZxI5OyHENTWVRaFN98DtE5IeRAoDDBVZW3U4d0vDYUpBNMQVpQ45gDQQjQ-7WQah9oX8OJHpQh22yaqDGSxzxNqO6vk3MBHPvS6d61X4IymSPUl1Sh9P2Xj9NWJFQOR~ZbJdicg7ORuShrOJ~zD8Ae2o5eDX3~bDtRYlk8~jX9Ku2N2YjmMv8EcwPQkeTBeNldBH3wnf~sHR8r4T7cS7IV9T90EDuRqb2vAACh4gRXBYiduAR2l~yD66IaZshbA-jzqhzW~OXSaIZ8bxDhunM6TiYWsHxTDyaDyuoHDxblYENpS4Hk00murNbUdokRAbLcCwqNbGlWcg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

With the exception of Chilo partellus (Swinhoe), which was accidentally introduced into Africa, the other stemborer pests are indigenous to the continent and have co-evolved with native grasses and sedges. In addition to pest species, wild habitats harbour diverse non-economic stemborer species, some of which are new to science. However, the diversity and distribution of both non-economic and pest species of stemborer are currently mostly unknown in Botswana. Accordingly, country-wide surveys were conducted during 2014/15 and 2015/16 austral summer to determine species diversity and distribution in cultivated and wild host plants of stemborers in Botswana. A total of 1597 stemborer larvae and 228 pupae were collected, constituting 63.1 and 36.9 larvae and 84.8 and 15.2% pupae from cultivated versus wild habitats, respectively. In addition to C. partellus, Sesamia calamistis Hampson and Eldana saccharina Walker which were previously reported, 12 more stemborer species were recorded for the first time in Botswana, including nine undescribed species. These species were from the Sciomesa, Sesamia and Conicofrontia genera and Tortricidae and Pyralidae families. Fourteen wild host and two cultivated host plant species of stemborers were recorded. Chilo partellus was most abundant (89.5%) in cultivated habitats whilst E. saccharina (33.6%) was most abundant in wild habitats. Stemborer species diversity was higher in wild habitats than cultivated. Current results highlight the significance of wild, especially wetland habitats for ecological functions and conservation of lepidopteran stemborer biodiversity.","grobid_abstract_attachment_id":61582188},"translated_abstract":null,"internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/41389814/Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2019-12-22T07:15:01.766-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":61582188,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582188/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana20191222-5511-czve3y.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582188/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopter.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582188/Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana20191222-5511-czve3y-libre.pdf?1577030629=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DDiversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopter.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443595\u0026Signature=d4S1p0KMGkJCEHGuak5b9SUJU494dJf55cdMPdpYks6U8d6lbPskUItv5El3NU9WWm9xOtlZVUw3mldOIT9I6U~bX54nhbWZs11iqikBYRNcSQLDH~eM5C~gbcOeOyygHI41RUK4kETItwx0krP8vvgrSYCBzfY0csQWzFVrYIHpeQ4txsTYaHXLQeJn6d1vgQg~a7zsg0r~nbxtSqebQCfZgyJ~5f8BR5Z~1BDDaxmav3109bKzVk60A3yqkQyk1wUeRt7jVBwOaU2rrjUBsLCwOQOEt6y0IaE1ojhB4EmevYwiIfOoVNqnmX-07RoJ8KpclNAS9qLa8mqW-ddvaA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana","translated_slug":"","page_count":17,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":61582188,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582188/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana20191222-5511-czve3y.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582188/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopter.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582188/Diversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopteran_stemborer_species_and_their_host_plants_in_Botswana20191222-5511-czve3y-libre.pdf?1577030629=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DDiversity_and_distribution_of_lepidopter.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443595\u0026Signature=d4S1p0KMGkJCEHGuak5b9SUJU494dJf55cdMPdpYks6U8d6lbPskUItv5El3NU9WWm9xOtlZVUw3mldOIT9I6U~bX54nhbWZs11iqikBYRNcSQLDH~eM5C~gbcOeOyygHI41RUK4kETItwx0krP8vvgrSYCBzfY0csQWzFVrYIHpeQ4txsTYaHXLQeJn6d1vgQg~a7zsg0r~nbxtSqebQCfZgyJ~5f8BR5Z~1BDDaxmav3109bKzVk60A3yqkQyk1wUeRt7jVBwOaU2rrjUBsLCwOQOEt6y0IaE1ojhB4EmevYwiIfOoVNqnmX-07RoJ8KpclNAS9qLa8mqW-ddvaA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

The C. sesamoides specimens in this study were collected from Miscanthus capensis (Nees) (Poaceae) and sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) (Poaceae) in Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal Provinces of South Africa. Analysis of Molecular Variance showed a moderate to highly significant genetic differentiation between C. sesamoides populations from different host plants (FST = 0.115, p = 0.14) and altitudinal range (FST = 0.159, p = 0.18). This result was however, contradictory to outcomes of phylogenetic analyses, haplotype networking and uncorrected sequence divergence (0.0–1.54%) which revealed no detectable genetic differentiation between populations from different host plants and altitudes. As it is difficult to measure FST accurately without a large data set, the very small sample used in the analysis might have resulted in inflation of the FST value in this study. After evaluation of the results, it was concluded that the sugarcane population of C. sesamoideshas originated from the population residing in wild host plants in the Eastern Cape and/or KwaZulu-Natal provinces of South Africa.

Analysis of Molecular Variance showed a moderate to highly significant genetic differentiation between C. sesamoides populations from different host plants (FST = 0.115, p = 0.14) and altitudinal range (FST = 0.159, p = 0.18). This result was however, contradictory to outcomes of phylogenetic analyses, haplotype networking and uncorrected sequence divergence (0.0–1.54%) which revealed no detectable genetic differentiation between populations from different host plants and altitudes. As it is difficult to measure FST accurately without a large data set, the very small sample used in the analysis might have resulted in inflation of the FST value in this study. After evaluation of the results, it was concluded that the sugarcane population of C. sesamoideshas originated from the population residing in wild host plants in the Eastern Cape and/or KwaZulu-Natal provinces of South Africa. Possible reasons for the host plant expansion and its implications to commercial sugarcane production in the country are discussed.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/41389777/Clarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2019-12-22T07:05:50.070-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":61582151,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582151/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C._sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis20191222-31539-mq0onz.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582151/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_po.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582151/Clarifying_the_source_of_C._sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis20191222-31539-mq0onz.pdf?1577027140=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DClarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_po.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443596\u0026Signature=ciC1uOHYzkVD9nc25vqaW5jjcWLpKJdROwRsLzAGDG1w~4irF0G~4GCq4QEOW-iF3ms58U2klT1RKrb1-39H5Fvpd8pqv8QNTwyK9rMQzxxUavQEnZRbIavapjt3mRZWCKyt-00rVZUEozSsNBqX9hrstLjMy9YWZYMo5TVZ7GAJnmrEhAIN~cx2JYKtohYbd7Tl3ZjuWTIoT7Y-ydV8qy4sjwU25qpMMhC9IkWhPzOkMjh3b1YDyLApq~zrK7PMKEU9RtoF8AEycSLC42B-MiZPKIa2uI3FW8Ys0oigTP9Z9UcpGMp1~4aIaprzWjT2v2wtRQH1bdfhHTbfdyvk7A__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis","translated_slug":"","page_count":13,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":61582151,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/61582151/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C._sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis20191222-31539-mq0onz.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61582151/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Clarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_po.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/61582151/Clarifying_the_source_of_C._sesamoides_population_in_South_African_sugarcane_using_morphological_and_mtDNA_analysis20191222-31539-mq0onz.pdf?1577027140=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DClarifying_the_source_of_C_sesamoides_po.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443596\u0026Signature=ciC1uOHYzkVD9nc25vqaW5jjcWLpKJdROwRsLzAGDG1w~4irF0G~4GCq4QEOW-iF3ms58U2klT1RKrb1-39H5Fvpd8pqv8QNTwyK9rMQzxxUavQEnZRbIavapjt3mRZWCKyt-00rVZUEozSsNBqX9hrstLjMy9YWZYMo5TVZ7GAJnmrEhAIN~cx2JYKtohYbd7Tl3ZjuWTIoT7Y-ydV8qy4sjwU25qpMMhC9IkWhPzOkMjh3b1YDyLApq~zrK7PMKEU9RtoF8AEycSLC42B-MiZPKIa2uI3FW8Ys0oigTP9Z9UcpGMp1~4aIaprzWjT2v2wtRQH1bdfhHTbfdyvk7A__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

However, its pest status varies across its distribution range. It is a major pest of maize in Europe and of sugarcane in Iran. In Africa, it is a major pest of maize in West Africa but not considered as a pest in East Africa. Recent surveys conducted in 2015 recorded S. nonagrioides to be a major pest of sugarcane in Ethiopia and reported the species for the first time in Botswana, outside its known geographic range. The genetic relationship of these records with the previously recorded population of S. nonagrioides was investigated using the cytochrome oxidase subunit I region of the mitochondrial genome. In total, 113 individuals across the geographic range of the species were analyzed and 63 haplotypes were identified. Phylogenetic analysis separated the populations into two clades with no distinct geographic distribution pattern. The genetic differentiation was also not associated with host plants and geographic distances. Results of the molecular analysis revealed the long-time establishment of S. nonagrioides population in Botswana and identified the newly recorded sugarcane population from Ethiopia as part of the wild host population in the country. The phylogeographic patterns observed among population of S. nonagrioides have probably been shaped by Pleistocene&#39;s climatic oscillations and geographic range expansions from different refugia with secondary contact and admixture.

Except for Chilo partellus, the other stem borer pests in Ethiopia are indigenous to Africa and are assumed to have coevolved with some native grasses and sedges in the natural habitat. In addition to pest species, natural habitats harbour diverse non‐economic stem borer species, some of which are new to science. However, with the growing threats to natural habitats, some non‐economic stem borer species may switch or expand their host ranges to include cultivated crops and evolve as “new” pests. Besides host switch, some of the unknown species currently limited to natural habitats may disappear. We examined the diversity, abundance and interactions of lepidopteran stem borers and their wild host plants in five different vegetation mosaics in Ethiopia. The stem borer species diversity varied among vegetation mosaics and host plants. Forty‐four stem borer species belonging to 14 different genera in the families of Noctuidae, Crambidae, Pyralidae and Tortricidae were recorded from 34 wild host plants and through light trap. Among these families, Noctuidae was the highest in species richness in which 31 species were identified, out of which 15 species and two genera were new to science. This paper discusses the ecological interpretation of host plant–stem borer species interactions, particularly in relation to habitat disturbances.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="39906617"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="39906617"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 39906617; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=39906617]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=39906617]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 39906617; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='39906617']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 39906617, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=39906617]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":39906617,"title":"Diversity and abundance of lepidopteran stem borers and their host plants in Ethiopia","translated_title":"","metadata":{"doi":"10.1111/jen.12489","abstract":"Lepidopteran stem borers are among the most important insect pests of maize, sorghum and sugarcane in sub‐Saharan Africa.

Field surveys of stem-borer natural enemies and associated host plants were conducted during the austral summers of 2014/15 and 2015/16 on natural and cultivated habitats across Botswana to determine their diversity and relative abundance. In cultivated habitats, the most common parasitoids of larvae were Cotesia flavipes Cameron, C. sesamiae (Cameron), and of pupae, Pediobius furvus Gahan and Gambroides nimbipennis Seyrig. In natural habitats, the larval parasitoids Chelonus curvimaculatus Cameron and Goniozus indicus Ashmead were recorded, along with the pupal parasitoid, Dentichasmias busseolae Heinrich. Furthermore, the predatory ants Linepithema humile Mayr, Crematogaster peringueyi Emery and Aenictus species were recorded in both cultivated and natural habitats. The major cultivated plants hosting stem-borers and related natural enemies were maize, sorghum, sweet sorghum, and the major wild plants were Echinochloa pyramidalis, Typha latifolia, Schoenoplectus corymbosus and Cyperus dives. Chilo partellus Swinhoe and Sesamia spp. were the major hosts for parasitoids, with C. partellus predominating in cultivated habitats and Sesamia jansei Tams &amp; Bowden in natural habitats. Larval parasitism ranged from 2.1 to 34.7% and 3.3 to 14.3% in cultivated and natural habitats respectively, whereas pupal parasitism ranged from 6.1 to 10.6% and 6.7 to 9.1%, respectively. Parasitoid percentage abundance ranged from 1.1 to 41.6% and 4.8 to 38.1% in cultivated and natural habitats respectively, with C. flavipes dominating in cultivated and C. curvimaculatus in natural habitats. Our results show that cultivated and natural environments in Botswana harbor a diverse natural enemy community worthy of conserving for stem-borer biological control.<br /><br />Keywords<br />Biological controlParasitoidsPredatorsPest managementTritrophic interaction</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="c116ec057f0ffb34df8560b640959568" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:54611687,&quot;asset_id&quot;:34753276,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/54611687/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34753276"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34753276"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34753276; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=34753276]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=34753276]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34753276; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='34753276']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 34753276, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "c116ec057f0ffb34df8560b640959568" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=34753276]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":34753276,"title":"Diversity and abundance of lepidopteran stem borer natural enemies in natural and cultivated habitats in Botswana","translated_title":"","metadata":{"doi":"10.1016/j.biocontrol.2017.09.003","volume":"115","abstract":"Lepidopteran stem-borers in Africa are attacked by diverse natural enemies in natural and cultivated environments.

Furthermore, research should focus on the damage potential of these nematode species on khat crop\nperformance to determine the economic threshold level and estimate a cost-benefit analysis on management practices.\nKey words: abundance, cropping pattern, distribution, khat, occurrence, prominence value.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/30202607/Occurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2016-12-01T09:12:53.804-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":50661150,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg","file_name":"Occurrence__distribution__and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50661150/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Occurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/50661150/Occurrence__distribution__and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat-libre.pdf?1480613199=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DOccurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443597\u0026Signature=AHU6O6LO6D1GrthQkluvOiQOTzYX52IEgzdv9JfhJQPne-ylGtrFZEIrdlTzswnNLDAprr11sKfK3-zd80cYaYoB4i4IKVGgZvc8TNTAeBSHj9WvGOrW58Tu-kU-h3vWp7vFv8Hdea12aeSq6VTnyDSXjkYQ0NtO~UwWERdgcpaV4p2~uVXWcObpZEghfDZur8Cr~CDZ3NBlr5msxsoasuA791IPTFn3Wz8gt~RHuZCNYDAveJDsOqhG-QaGXj4LOVP1sr4CvMnzifqaS-eHdWsLsAnR1SJ8xgL6iMEahEzXpEhRCXngWAPnvd6TEVAo8~hhnVsHaClWo5j1dL2Pew__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Occurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat","translated_slug":"","page_count":8,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":50661150,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg","file_name":"Occurrence__distribution__and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50661150/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Occurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/50661150/Occurrence__distribution__and_abundance_of_plant_parastitic_nematodes_assoicated_with_Khat-libre.pdf?1480613199=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DOccurrence_distribution_and_abundance_of.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443597\u0026Signature=AHU6O6LO6D1GrthQkluvOiQOTzYX52IEgzdv9JfhJQPne-ylGtrFZEIrdlTzswnNLDAprr11sKfK3-zd80cYaYoB4i4IKVGgZvc8TNTAeBSHj9WvGOrW58Tu-kU-h3vWp7vFv8Hdea12aeSq6VTnyDSXjkYQ0NtO~UwWERdgcpaV4p2~uVXWcObpZEghfDZur8Cr~CDZ3NBlr5msxsoasuA791IPTFn3Wz8gt~RHuZCNYDAveJDsOqhG-QaGXj4LOVP1sr4CvMnzifqaS-eHdWsLsAnR1SJ8xgL6iMEahEzXpEhRCXngWAPnvd6TEVAo8~hhnVsHaClWo5j1dL2Pew__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Therefore, a study was conducted using pheromone traps to elucidate the occurrence of the insect pest and to monitor its population build-up in eastern Ethiopia.&nbsp; Pheromone traps were placed in the greenhouse for two months&nbsp; February - March 2014) and in the open-field tomato crops for one week<br />to monitor the tomato leaf miner moth. Examination of the traps was carried out at seven-day intervals, and the dispenser was replaced every 15 days. There was a linear increment in the number of captured moths during the surveyed time both in the greenhouse and in the open-field tomato crops. The number of moths captured ranged from 27 – 47 and 103 – 255 in the open-field and in the greenhouse, respectively. Thus, based on the examination of the traps, the presence of Tuta absoluta<br />was confirmed for the first time in eastern Ethiopia. In the greenhouse, the larvae of the tomato leaf<br />miner inflicted a heavy damage on young tomato plants. As a result, young plants died before<br />flowering. The results of the study have revealed that the pest is likely to cause heavy losses in tomato<br />crops on an unprecedented scale in the Eastern part of the country. Therefore, monitoring the pest in all tomato producing regions of the country is a vital step towards early detection and decision-making<br />to take integrated management measures against the outbreak of the infestation. <br /><br />Keywords: Larvae; Leaf Miner; Moth; Pheromone Trap; Population Dynamics; Pupation; Tomato;<br />Tuta absoluta</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="fb73d853ea33db9fa541fc7e5ddf4381" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:50660928,&quot;asset_id&quot;:30202363,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50660928/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="30202363"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="30202363"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 30202363; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=30202363]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=30202363]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 30202363; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='30202363']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 30202363, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "fb73d853ea33db9fa541fc7e5ddf4381" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=30202363]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":30202363,"title":"Occurrence and Population Dynamics of Tomato Leaf Miner [Tuta absoluta] in Eastern Ethiopia.pdf","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Abstract: The dangerous tomato leaf miner pest (Tuta absoluta), which was reported to have crossed into Ethiopia via the Sudan in 2012, has scared tomato producing farmers across the country.

Twenty-one sorghum varieties obtained from Haramaya University Sorghum Improvement Research Program were investigated for their relative resistance to S. zeamais attack. The Dobie index of susceptibility was used to group the varieties into different reaction categories. Among the twenty one sorghum varieties evaluated, only one variety, 'WB-77', was regarded as resistant to the weevil. All the remaining varieties were categorized as moderately resistant. Weevils reared on the resistant variety produced a few number of F 1 progeny (20.00), had a high median developmental time (42.00 days) and a low percentage of seed damage (2.67) and seed weight loss (0.30). Percentage seed damage and weight loss are significantly and positively correlated with the mean number of F 1 progeny emergence and are inversely associated with median developmental time. Consequently, those varieties with high number of F 1 progeny scored high percentage of seed damage and weight loss. These results indicated that high lysine content was found to be the predominant factor in sorghum resistance to S. zeamais.","grobid_abstract_attachment_id":34348741},"translated_abstract":null,"internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/7854580/Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_the_maize_weevil_Sitophilus_zeamais_Motschulsky_Coleoptera_Curculionidae","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2014-08-03T00:43:58.073-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":1104916,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[{"id":26296797,"work_id":7854580,"tagging_user_id":1104916,"tagged_user_id":null,"co_author_invite_id":5801398,"email":"k***e@yahoo.com","display_order":0,"name":"Ketema Belete","title":"Susceptibility of sorghum varieties to the maize weevil Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky (Coleoptera: Curculionidae"}],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":34348741,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/34348741/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_maize_weevil.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/34348741/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_t.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/34348741/Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_maize_weevil-libre.pdf?1407051828=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DSusceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_t.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443597\u0026Signature=JaPPH0a7Z2yM~gv5a0N9vNNjtQ0ZnEc5sYhHMwP7VLo1nAJRo6cPelTtAJcsEixj515D2igWiPEekwqhhVV7Izmk6EJGX4LG~DNdq8fxaeo5fLsKiBklMyYLxqkbr8GmQpKhnM-SFqdAdgpUnXuhx4XGJFqmkNYFnINW1l-mQeMg~bxq1lShd1ZSJMSXBW3HpT1hSjSOMBButr4YvU7nLm9KQHN8UWTKlQcYcqmIOAoCvod77gP~Tn86UxroKlA2xVINWq7Zh~fjGxlZheTmmohqqFqpOjwXPzp~qfcbHReMOsCZjtbqw0-d0o3rz1ZcOxZ7uJN0jxxadgy4NDY1Lg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_the_maize_weevil_Sitophilus_zeamais_Motschulsky_Coleoptera_Curculionidae","translated_slug":"","page_count":8,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":1104916,"first_name":"Muluken","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Goftishu","page_name":"MulukenGoftishu","domain_name":"haramaya","created_at":"2012-01-08T17:20:24.595-08:00","display_name":"Muluken Goftishu","url":"https://haramaya.academia.edu/MulukenGoftishu"},"attachments":[{"id":34348741,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/34348741/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_maize_weevil.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/34348741/download_file?st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQzOTk5Nyw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_t.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/34348741/Susceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_maize_weevil-libre.pdf?1407051828=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DSusceptibility_of_sorghum_varieties_to_t.pdf\u0026Expires=1732443597\u0026Signature=JaPPH0a7Z2yM~gv5a0N9vNNjtQ0ZnEc5sYhHMwP7VLo1nAJRo6cPelTtAJcsEixj515D2igWiPEekwqhhVV7Izmk6EJGX4LG~DNdq8fxaeo5fLsKiBklMyYLxqkbr8GmQpKhnM-SFqdAdgpUnXuhx4XGJFqmkNYFnINW1l-mQeMg~bxq1lShd1ZSJMSXBW3HpT1hSjSOMBButr4YvU7nLm9KQHN8UWTKlQcYcqmIOAoCvod77gP~Tn86UxroKlA2xVINWq7Zh~fjGxlZheTmmohqqFqpOjwXPzp~qfcbHReMOsCZjtbqw0-d0o3rz1ZcOxZ7uJN0jxxadgy4NDY1Lg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":1037,"name":"Agronomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Agronomy"},{"id":10225,"name":"Agriculture","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Agriculture"},{"id":96098,"name":"Resistance","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Resistance"},{"id":243096,"name":"Insect Infestation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Insect_Infestation"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Fall armyworm (FAW) is known to feed on over 350 plant species and it has been predicted to cause up to $US 13 billion per annum in crop losses throughout sub-Saharan Africa, thereby threatening the livelihoods of millions of poor farmers.<br /><br />Since the occurrence of FAW in Africa, synthetic chemical insecticides have been widely used as emergency responses to halt distribution of the pest and minimize damage in maize fields. Most smallholder farmers in Africa and Asia, however, cannot afford frequent insecticide applications. Furthermore, dependence on chemical insecticides results in the development of resistance to major classes of insecticides, effects on nontarget organisms, as well as other adverse effects to humans and the environment.

The approach involves mass rearing and release of these egg parasitoids to control FAW. These egg parasitoids are reared on factitious and natural hosts.
