Evaluation of different integrated pest management concepts for controlling the legumes beetles, Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) and Callosobruchus chinensis (L.) on faba bean and cow pea seeds
Abstract: The effect of direct treatments of faba bean and cowpea seeds with plant oils (Garlic and onion), fungus (Biover), mixture (Malathion and biover) and pesticides (Malathion) on insect population and percentage seeds damage of stored seeds due to infestation with C. maculatus, (F.) and C. chinensis, (L.) was studied.
Results showed that percentage seeds damage of both faba bean and cowpea seeds was positively correlated with insect population and storage period. Insect population and percentage seeds damage of both faba bean and cowpea seeds were significantly reduced in treated seeds during storage period extended to 6 months in comparison with untreated one. The results indicated that there was no effect of the tested materials on the percentage of the seed germination.
Data showed that there is positive and negative significance in biochemical components (total lipids, carbohydrates and total proteins) content compared with untreated one.
