Mass rearing stem borers, fall armyworms, and corn earworms at CIMMYT
1989
Mihm, J.A. (CIMMYT, Mexico, DF (Mexico). Maize Program)
This paper presents the techniques developed at CIMMYT and used for over a decade to efficiently mass rear the southwestern corn borer, Diatraea grandiosella Dyar, the sugarcane borer, D. saccharalis Fabricius, the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda J.E. Smith, and the corn earworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie). These techniques are likely adaptable to other lepidopterous pest species, crop species, and screening/breeding initiatives in other parts of the world. Included are procedures and techniques for colony establishment and maintenance, and requirements for efficient mass rearing and insect production.
