    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Le coton a un effet important sur le comportement et les capacités des parasites du charançon,Anthonomus grandis Boheman. Le principal parasite indigène,Bracon mellitor Say préfère pondre sur les bractées Frego plutôt que sur les bractées normales. Un parasite importé,Heterolaccus grandis Burks dépose ses œufs de préférence sur les bractées normales plutôt que sur les bractées Frego.
    Notes: Abstract The cotton plant has a profound affect on the behavior and ability of parasites to successfully attack the boll weevil,Anthonomus grandis Boheman. The most important native parasite of the boll weevil,Bracon mellitor Say, prefers to oviposit on Frego bract cotton rather than normal bract cotton. An imported parasite,Heterolaccus grandis Burks prefers ovipositions on normal bract cotton rather than Frego.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Durch fraktionierte Dosen von insgesamt 6250 und 8000 rads einer Gammabestrahlung (25 bzw. 32 Teilbehandlungen zu 250 rads mit 4 h-Intervallen) wurden Puppen des Baumwollkapselkäfers, Anthonomus grandis Boheman, in beiden Geschlechtern sexuell sterilisiert. Die Sterblichkeit, 5 d nach der Behandlung, betrug bei den so behandelten Männchen bei 6250 rads 14%, bei 8000 rads 27% im Vergleich zu 46%, wenn eine äquivalente akute Dosis bei frisch geschlüpften Käfern angewendet wurde. Die Pheromonproduktion der Männchen in den ersten 4 d erreichte bei 6250 rads-Bestrahlung 1/3 derjenigen der Kontrolltiere; 5–11 d nach der Behandlung war kein Unterschied. Dieses Verfahren eignet sich für die Massensterilisation von Kapselkäfern, wie sie bei einem Ausrottungsprogramm nötig ist. Diese Technik ist anwendbar auf andere Insekten, die gegenüber akuten Dosen hochempfindlich sind.
    Notes: Abstract Fractionated doses of 6,250–8,000 rads of gamma irradiation when administered to pupae of the boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis Boh., sexually sterilized both sexes. Mortality of males thus treated with 6,250 and 8,000 rads via fractionation was 14% and 27% respectively, by 5 days posttreatment compared with 46% mortality when an equivalent acute dose was administered to newly emerged adults. Pheromone production of males irradiated at 6,250 rads was one-third that of the control for the first 4 days, but equal that of the control during 5–11 days posttreatment. This procedure lends itself to the large-scale sterilization of weevils needed in an eradication program. This technique is applicable to other insects that are highly susceptible to acute doses.

    Notes: Abstract Steam distillation of frass of the female boll weevil,Anthonomus grandis Boheman, yielded an extract that was more attractive to males than to females in the laboratory. Extracts purified by TLC were attractive to males only. The active components appear to be alcohols and hydrocarbons.
