This scientific meeting, held every two years, under the auspices of the International Organization for Biological and integrated Control (IOBC), regularly brings together scientists, engineers, industry players, stakeholders and professionals in post-harvest agro- food chain sanitation quality and safety to report the state of progress in applied research in stored product integrated protection. The socio-economic reality of increasing safety and quality traceability concern by foodstuffs purchasers, processed food manufacturers, food supply chains, consumer demand, and the application of recent European Regulations of “Hygiene package” and “Pesticide package” in all food chains accelerate the need for greater production of applied research results. The real challenge of developing new approaches and the application of necessary changes in current programs of integrated pest management in food processing plants and in stored products is impeded by a global reduction of human and material resources available for research and development on pests and pathogens contamination of durable agricultural products and derived food products. Regardless of this critical situation, the 9th IPSP 2013 Conference is meeting the challenge for the transition towards an efficient control of post-harvest pests and pathogens with both the limitation chemical use and the improvement of risk control of infestation or contamination of durable foods by insect pests, molds or their impurities and toxins. At IPSP 2013 Conference, the optimal solutions for tackling this difficult challenge will be presented through 90 communications comprising the scientific program. Their authors come from more than 25 countries, confirming the interest of the international scientific community for this IPSP Conference. The Local Organizing Committee of IPSP 2013 wishes to thank all the contributors making this Conference intriguing and relevant. We are grateful to IOBC and INRA for their advice and support for the organisation. We really appreciate the financial support of our sponsors and organizations and wish to thank the Scientific Advisory Committee for their advice in building the scientific program of this Conference. Thank you also to all the authors of communications for making the work of the Organizing Committee possible. Francis Fleurat-Lessard 3 Integrated Protection of Stored Products – 2013 Conference – Bordeaux, France – 01–04 July 2013 Avant-propos La 9ème Conference OILB-SROP sur la Protection Intégrée des Produits stockés (PIPS) est organisée pour la 1ère fois par l’U.R. INRA “Mycologie et Sécurité des Aliments” (MycSA) du Centre INRA de Bordeaux-Aquitaine. Cette Conférence biennale, placée sous les auspices de l’Organisation Internationale de Lutte Biologique et Intégrée (OILB), regroupe des scientifiques, ingénieurs, acteurs économiques et professionnels du monde entier intéressés par la maîtrise de qualité et la sécurité sanitaire dans les chaînes alimentaires post-récolte et pour faire l’état d’avancement de la recherche appliquée en Protection Intégrée des Produits stockés. Dans le contexte socio-économique actuel, la sécurité sanitaire et la traçabilité sont prioritairement exigées par les traders de produits alimentaires, les entreprises de transformations, les distributeurs ou les consommateurs. L’application des récents règlements européens du “paquet hygiène” et du “paquet pesticide” dans toutes les chaînes alimentaires accélère les besoins en résultats de recherche. Le challenge à relever consiste à développer de nouvelles approches et applications pratiques de solutions innovantes en protection intégrée contre les ravageurs et les contaminations des chaînes alimentaires après récolte. Cet objectif est contrecarré par la diminution constante du nombre de chercheurs qui se consacrent à ce domaine de recherche dans le monde. Toutefois, la 9ème Conférence PIPS 2013 contribue à relever ce challenge de la transition vers une maitrise des ravageurs, agents pathogènes ou contaminants des denrées après- récolte en limitant l’utilisation des pesticides tout en améliorant la prévision et la maîtrise des risques d’infestation ou de contamination des produits alimentaires durables par leurs impuretés ou leurs toxines. Pour la Conférence PIPS 2013, 90 communications ont été présentées pour contribuer à relever ce challenge. Leurs auteurs sont issus de plus de 25 pays différents, ce qui confirme l’intérêt de la communauté scientifique internationale pour cette thématique de la protection intégrée. Le Comité d’Organisation de la Conférence PIPS 2013 remercie tous ceux qui ont contribué au succès et à l’attractivité de cette Conférence et en particulier l’OILB et l’INRA. Le soutien des entreprises et institutions qui ont participé financièrement à cette entreprise a été très apprécié. Le travail du comité scientifique pour effectuer la sélection difficile des communications orales ainsi que les efforts de l’ensemble des auteurs des communications (orales ou affichées) sont également à remercier pour la qualité et la rigueur scientifique de leurs prestations.

  • Effect of Host Age on Progeny Production of Theocolax Elegans
    Kasetsart J. (Nat. Sci.) 48 : 587 - 597 (2014) Effect of Host Age on Progeny Production of Theocolax elegans (Westwood) (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) Reared on Sitophilus zeamais (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Bonginkhosi E. Dlamini* and Weerawan Amornsak ABSTRACT Five host ages of Maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais (Motschulsky) reared on brown rice were examined for progeny production of Theocolax elegans (Westwood). Brown rice kernels infested with S. zeamais were exposed to a mated female of T. elegans after 13, 15, 17, 19 and 21 d following S. zeamais introduction. Host stages were determined by measuring head-capsule widths from all the host ages. There was a signifi cant difference (P < 0.05) in T. elegans progeny production among the different host ages. Total progeny, total female progeny and total male progeny produced by 19-day-old S. zeamais larvae were signifi cantly higher (P < 0.05) compared to the other host ages. Progeny of T. elegans raised on 19-day-old S. zeamais larvae had a higher female to male ratio compared to the other host ages. Sitophilus zeamais larvae after 13, 15–17 and 19–21 d were found to be second, third and fourth instars, respectively. It was concluded that T. elegans can develop on the second, third and fourth instar larvae of S. zeamais. However, 19-day-old (fourth instar) S. zeamais larvae produced more T. elegans progeny with a higher female to male ratio.

  • PESTS of STORED PRODUCTS a 'Pest of Stored Products' Can Refer To
    PESTS OF STORED PRODUCTS A ‘pest of stored products’ can refer to any organism that infests and damages stored food, books and documents, fabrics, leather, carpets, and any other dried or preserved item that is not used shortly after it is delivered to a location, or moved regularly. Technically, these pests can include microorganisms such as fungi and bacteria, arthropods such as insects and mites, and vertebrates such as rodents and birds. Stored product pests are responsible for the loss of millions of dollars every year in contaminated products, as well as destruction of important documents and heritage artifacts in homes, offices and museums. Many of these pests are brought indoors in items that were infested when purchased. Others originate indoors when susceptible items are stored under poor storage conditions, or when stray individual pests gain access to them. Storage pests often go unnoticed because they infest items that are not regularly used and they may be very small in size. Infestations are noticed when the pests emerge from storage, to disperse or sometimes as a result of crowding or after having exhausted a particular food source, and search for new sources of food and harborage. Unexplained occurrences of minute moths and beetles flying in large numbers near stored items, or crawling over countertops, walls and ceilings, powdery residues below and surrounding stored items, and stale odors in pantries and closets can all indicate a possible storage pest infestation. Infestations in stored whole grains or beans can also be detected when these are soaked in water, and hollowed out seeds rise to the surface, along with the adult stages of the pests, and other debris.

Biodiversitas 21: 4301-4308. This study aimed to determine the fumigant and antifeedant activity of some plant essential oils against Cryptolestes ferrugineus. Essential oils were extracted from cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum), kaffir lime (Citrus hystrix), citronella grass (Cymbopogon nardus), zodea (Euodia suaveolens), and clove (Syzygium aromaticum). The extraction used the maceration method with n-Hexane as a solvent. The results of the experiments showed that all essential oils have fumigant toxicity. Fumigant toxicity of kaffir lime, citronella grass, zodea, and clove oil; eggs and pupae were more susceptible than adults and larvae, while for cinnamon, pupae and adults were more susceptible than eggs and larvae. Median Lethal Concentration (LC50) of all essential oils for eggs larvae, pupae, and adults respectively, for cinnamon were 17, 24, 9, and 12 ppm, for kaffir lime were 12, 17, 8 and 15 ppm, however, on citronella grass were 11, 22, 8, and 14 ppm, for zodea were 16, 22, 10 and 20 ppm, for clove were 11, 24, 7 and 14 ppm.

    Ulicsni et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2016) 12:47 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0118-7 RESEARCH Open Access Folk knowledge of invertebrates in Central Europe - folk taxonomy, nomenclature, medicinal and other uses, folklore, and nature conservation Viktor Ulicsni1* , Ingvar Svanberg2 and Zsolt Molnár3 Abstract Background: There is scarce information about European folk knowledge of wild invertebrate fauna. We have documented such folk knowledge in three regions, in Romania, Slovakia and Croatia. We provide a list of folk taxa, and discuss folk biological classification and nomenclature, salient features, uses, related proverbs and sayings, and conservation. Methods: We collected data among Hungarian-speaking people practising small-scale, traditional agriculture. We studied “all” invertebrate species (species groups) potentially occurring in the vicinity of the settlements. We used photos, held semi-structured interviews, and conducted picture sorting. Results: We documented 208 invertebrate folk taxa. Many species were known which have, to our knowledge, no economic significance. 36 % of the species were known to at least half of the informants. Knowledge reliability was high, although informants were sometimes prone to exaggeration. 93 % of folk taxa had their own individual names, and 90 % of the taxa were embedded in the folk taxonomy. Twenty four species were of direct use to humans (4 medicinal, 5 consumed, 11 as bait, 2 as playthings). Completely new was the discovery that the honey stomachs of black-coloured carpenter bees (Xylocopa violacea, X. valga)were consumed. 30 taxa were associated with a proverb or used for weather forecasting, or predicting harvests. Conscious ideas about conserving invertebrates only occurred with a few taxa, but informants would generally refrain from harming firebugs (Pyrrhocoris apterus), field crickets (Gryllus campestris) and most butterflies.
