Grain Marketing Research Laboratory, USDA-ARS, 1515 College Avenue, Manhattan, KS 66502 Monitoring and Predicting Population Growth of Rhyzopertha dominic a (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae) Over a Range of Enviromnental Conditions [Elektronische Daten] [David W. Hagstrum] Population growth of lesser grain borer, Rhyzpertha dominica (F.), in 135-kg lots of hard red winter wheat, Triticum aestivum L., was monitored at 3 grain moisture levels (≈10, 12, and 14%) at each of 3 temperatures (≈22, 27, and 32°C). Over this range of environmental conditions, a published population growth model explained 64-96% of the variation in insect density. Based on published studies and new data collected for developmental times, new equations were developed for egg production and developmental time, and daily adult mortality was estimated. Substituting new equations and mortality rate in the published model improved predictions, increasing by 3-24% the percentage of variation explained. The biggest improvements tended to be at the extreme grain moisture and temperature conditions. © 1996 Entomological Society of America Population Ecology nationallicence Rhyzopertha dominica nationallicence stored products nationallicence developmental time nationallicence computer simulation model nationallicence grain moisture nationallicence temperature nationallicence Environmental Entomology Oxford University Press 25/6(1996-12-01), 1354-1359 0046-225X 25:6<1354 1996 25 ee https://doi.org/10.1093/ee/25.6.1354 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1093/ee/25.6.1354 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- Hagstrum David W.
