Abstract
99 words
Stemborers cause 50% yield losses in cereal crops. In Kenya
Cotesia sesamiae is one of the parasitoids that has been studied
in regard to the control of stemborer pests. In this study the
reproductive compatibility of three populations of C. sesamiae
was investigated using the noctuid S. calamistis and Busseola
fusca as hosts. The output of this work has helped to determine
the effect of cross mating and oviposition behaviour of C.
sesamia strains and has helped to understand the possible
consequences of the introduction and redistribution of C.
sesamiae for the sustainable control of stem borers in Africa.
