Abstract:
... The coffee berry borer, Hypothenemus hampei, is the most important pest of coffee worldwide, causing an estimated $500 million in damage annually. Infestation rates from 50-90% have been reported, significantly impacting coffee yields. Adult female H. hampei bore into the berry and lay eggs whose larvae hatch and spend their entire larval life within the berry, feeding on the coffee bean, lowering ...

Abstract:
... Little effort has been made to characterize the diel pattern of predation on insect pests in the field, particularly predatory events that occur nocturnally. Round-the-clock observations in systems such as potatoes, cotton, soybean, maize, and ley crops under varying cultural practices, and woodlands, with additional published studies, highlight several important considerations when working on pre ...
