ABSTRACT
Red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum is a serious pest of stored grain
commodities. A laboratory study was conducted for evaluating the sub-lethal
effects of a chitin synthesis inhibitor, lufenuron at concentrations of 0.02,
0.04 and 0.08 ppm against two strains of T. castaneum. Lufenuron caused
significant effects on larval mortality, larval duration before pupae, larval
weight, pupae and adult emergence. When these adults were allowed to oviposit
on untreated wheat flour, their fecundity and egg hatchability was reduced to a
larger extent at all the tested concentrations as compared to control
treatment. Further, subsequent development of F1 larvae,
pupae and adults were also severely prohibited. Our findings show that
lufenuron can be a potential product for pest management in mills, warehouses
and food storage facilities.

ABSTRACT
Kumbang tepung merah, Tribolium castaneum adalah perosak serius komoditi bijirin tersimpan.
Suatu ujian makmal telah dijalankan bagi menilai kesan sub-maut
perencat sintesis kitin, lufenuron pada kepekatan 0.02, 0.04 dan
0.08 ppm terhadap dua strain T. castaneum. Lufenuron telah
menyebabkan kesan yang ketara pada kemortalan larva, tempoh larva
sebelum pupa, berat larva pupa dan kemunculan dewasa. Apabila dewasa
ini dibenarkan untuk oviposit pada tepung gandum tak terawat, kesuburan
dan kebolehtetasan telur mereka telah dikurangkan ke tahap yang
lebih besar terhadap semua kepekatan yang diuji berbanding rawatan
kawalan. Di samping itu, perkembangan larva F1, pupa
dan dewasa seterusnya juga berjaya dihalang. Keputusan kami menunjukkan
bahawa lufenuron boleh menjadi produk yang berpotensi untuk pengurusan
haiwan perosak dalam kilang-kilang, gudang-gudang dan kemudahan
penyimpanan makanan.
