An integrated pest management approach for the control of sugarcane weevil borer, Rhabdoscelus obscurus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
(BSES, 2000)Treatments with Regent alone and in combination with pheromone trapping of sugarcane weevil borers were assessed in field trials in the Mulgrave area. Results suggest that the combination of insecticidal treatment with ... -
Factors affecting the incidence of and damage caused by weevil borers : SRDC final report BS151S
(BSES, 1998)This study has shown that sampling billets for weevil borer damage through the extraneous matter system of a sugar mill gives reliable data as it supports in field data collected by BSES. These data may allow the simple ... -
Field Experiments to Optimise Lures for Mass-Trapping of Cane Weevil Borer
(BSES, 1998)Cane weevil borer, Rhobdoscelus obscurus (Biosduval) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Rhynchophorinae), is an introduced pest of sugarcane in Queensland, Hawaii and Fiji. It was accidentally introduced from Papua New Guinea ... -
Resistance mechanisms and selection for resistance in sugarcane to sugarcane weevil borer : SRDC final report BSS15
(BSES, 2005)This project primarily sought to determine resistance mechanisms and selection mechanisms for resistance in sugarcane to SWB (Sugarcane weevil borer). As such it addressed the SRDC strategies of developing more productive ...
