MOISTURE RELATIONS OF STORED TRITICALE AND ITS SUSCEPTIBILITY TO INFESTATION BY MITES AND INFECTION BY MICROFLORA

Moisture content-relative humidity (MC-RH) adsorption and desorption curves were determined for triticale (× - Triticosecale Wittmack), cv. Welsh, at 22 °C and 35–100% RH. The effects of various seed moisture contents on free fatty acid level, microfloral growth and germination loss were determined after 5 wk of storage at various RH and 22 °C. Infection of seeds by Penicillium and Aspergillus glaucus group occurred above 80–85% RH and seed germination correspondingly began to decrease. Five common stored-product mites which infested triticale stored at 20 °C and 85% RH were: Acarus siro, A. farris, Aëroglyphus robustus, Lepidoglyphus destructor and Tyrophagus putrescentiae. A. farris and L. destructor also multiplied on wheat cv. Neepawa which was an inferior substrate to triticale for A. farris.

Effect Of Moisture

The effects of various seed moisture contents in hulless (cv. Terra) and hulled oats (cv. Random) on susceptibility to mite infestation and on mycofloral growth and germination loss were studied at weekly intervals. Fat acidity values were determined for Terra oats only after 4 wk of storage. Moisture content-relative humidity adsorption and desorption curves were determined for Terra at 22 °C and at relative humidities of 35–100%. Terra oats, which had a higher level of Penicillium infection at 90–100% RH than Random oats, lost viability more rapidly than Random. Fat acidity values of Terra increased rapidly from 35 mg KOH/100 g of seed to 87–118 mg KOH/100 g of seed, only when seeds were stored at 90–100% RH. Terra offered a more favorable substrate for the multiplication of the mites Tyrophagus putrescentiae, Acarus farris, and Lepidoglyphus destructor than did Random. With the exception of susceptibility to mite infestation, safe storage criteria are similar for hulled and hulless oats at usual moisture contents.

Bean Flour

Legume proteins were shown to have insecticidal activity against stored-product pests. Grain enriched by bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) flour inhibits the growth of stored-product mites. In this study, we tested the toxicity of bean flour to storage mites under optimal conditions for their population growth (i.e. rearing diet, temperature: 25C and humidity optimum: 85% RH). Bean flour was added  to the diet in one of eight concentrations: 0, 0.01, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10%). The population growth of Tyrophagus putrescentiae, Acarus siro and Aleuroglyphus ovatus initiating from a density of 50 mites per 0.2 g of diet was recorded for 21 days. The enrichment of grain with bean flour suppressed the population growth of the tested species. These differed in their sensitivity to bean flour. Population growth was decreased to 50% in comparison to the control (rC50) by the bean flour concentration of 0.02% in T. putrescentiae, 0.04% in  A. siro, and by 4.87% in A. ovatus.  The concentration of 5% bean flour in diets kept populations of A. siro and T. putrescentiae at the initial level. The results are discussed in the context of applying bean flour in the integrated control of stored-product mites.
