Özet

The effect of gramma radiation on the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L.) was studied. Adults were subjected to 12 doses ranging from 0 to 180 Gy of gamma radiation from a Co-60 source. The time to onset of death and the duration of the period of mortality were investigated. Survival of the adults was decreased with increase of the doses. LD(50) and LD(99,9) values were calculated.
