Age structure of sitophilus oryzae using gultinous rice, calrose rice, Thai red rice and ponni rice / Nur Syakirah Mohamed Elias
Stored product insect cause more than one fifth of total damages in rice in developing countries commonly and one of the insect that contributes to this problem is rice weevil Sitophilus oryzae. The huge amount of loss could be associated with their biology because their all four larval stage and pu...

Stored product insect cause more than one fifth of total damages in rice in developing countries commonly and one of the insect that contributes to this problem is rice weevil Sitophilus oryzae. The huge amount of loss could be associated with their biology because their all four larval stage and pupal stage occurred inside the grain. Hence, causing their control and elimination are very difficult. Thus, this study focuses on the rice weevil S. oryzae age structure relationship with morphological characteristic based on the amount of nutrient used which might gain information on the preference and development of rice weevil S. oryzae.
