摘要:
An oviposition stimulant bioassay was developed for the sweetpotato weevil,Cylas formicarius elegantulus(Summers), using sweet potato storage root cores with the outer periderm exposed or that had their surface compounds removed with methylene chloride. The weevils laid significantly (P≪ 0.05) more eggs on the control cores and extracted potatoes on which the extract had been reapplied than on extracted cores without additions, indicating the presence of an oviposition stimulant.
