Influence of mating sterile male boll weevils [Anthonomus grandis] to overwintered females [Insect pests of cotton]

Influence of mating sterile male boll weevils [Anthonomus grandis] to overwintered females [Insect pests of cotton]

When overwintered females of Anthonomus grandis Boheman, collected from areas with low and high populations of weevils, were crossed with sterile males, egg hatch was reduced from ca. 90 to 10 percent. Percentage hatch was about the same for females from the 2 areas.
