The University of Basrah organizes a seminar entitled (Brief title)‎

 

The College of Science at the University of Basrah organized a seminar entitled (Astudy of some taxonomic and Bioblogical Aspects on some storage insect and their control  by the graduate student Ph.D Iman mussa omran  ....

The study aims Find ways to control storage insect as alternatives of using pesticides that pollute the environmental and included :  

 A taxonomic study of two insects Rhyzopertha donomica and O. surinamensis

included the morphological and genomic for O. surinamensis  also its control with powderd extracts , organic solvent , alkaloid for three types of plants Conyza dioscoridis , Cymbopogon citratus and Moringa oleifera  

Knowing its repellent and attractive effect on both insects  using insect growth regulator ( IGRs ) and mixing pesticides with plant extract ( ethanol and hexane )  to increase the efficiency of pesticide in destruction of insects    .

 The study was recommended the possibility of using extracts of organic solvent C. dioscoridis , C. citratus and M. oleifera to increase the efficacy of the Admiral and Runner in adult insects mortality and when using low concentration to reduce pesticide  in tractions in the environment .

The study  applied on the possibility of using plant extracts with approved pesticides within the integrated pest management program . , reducing  the mount of pesticide used to reduce the phenomenon of pollution .
