Red flour beetles in stored grain and grain products are showing increasing resistance to malathion, the most commonly used in secticide for stored grain, a U.S. Depart ment of Agriculture scientist reports. But the scientist, entomologist Richard W. Beeman of USDA’s Agricultural Research Service, said he had located the specific gene in the beetle that resists malathion. He said he is locating genes that resist other insecticides so that a strategy can be developed to reduce the impact of insecticide resistance. The red flour beetle’s resistance has in tensified in the past 15 years throughout the Midwest and Southeast, he said, while the highest levels have been found in Alabama, Florida and Georgia. Beeman said new evidence of the resistance came from studies at the research agency’s U.S. Grain Marketing Research Laboratory in Manhattan, Kans. He and Jonathan P. Haliscak, Kansas State University graduate research assistant, found 36 strains of red flour beetle, Triboleum castaneum (Herbst), in CDUH SBM AUTOMATIC BROODERS^ ODIfl W/JJ 100% SHUT OFF DOWNGOING HEAT Sunnybird® 2 4.400 BTU Maximum FEATURES ELECTRONIC IGNITION ELIMINATING: 1.
