Abstract Entomophagy is not well accepted in W estern E uropean populations but it common the world. In future, from developed countries should adapt to other sources of animal proteins because traditional breeding beef, poultry or pork will become unsustainable. This study was performed assess perception entomophagy B elgian population. A slight neophobia detected people agreed evaluate insect preparations. Various formulations (mealworms and house crickets) were prepared, insects...
Edible insects are gaining more and attention as a sustainable source of animal protein for food feed in the future. In Belgium, some insect products can be found on market, consumers sourcing fresh from fishing stores or towards traditional markets to find exotic that illegal not sanitarily controlled. From this perspective, study aims characterize microbial load edible Belgium (i.e., mealworms house crickets European farms smoked termites caterpillars Congolese market) evaluate efficiency...
Abstract BACKGROUND The health status of the indigenous people Ratanakiri Province, Cambodia, is significantly lower compared with that rest nation. domestication and mass production insects may represent a sustainable, cost effective high quality alternative source protein to traditional livestock. This study aimed optimise cheap residential cricket breeding system based on unused wild resources. development crickets, Teleogryllus testaceus (Walker), under seven diets composed taro aerial...
Fat content (FC) and fatty acids (FA) are the most important traits in shea tree breeding, controlled by several genes with relatively small effects. Therefore, determining involved biosynthesis of such is crucial for improving oil quantity quality domestication process species. To identify quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs) controlling FC FA, we conducted a multi-locus genome-wide association study (GWAS) using six GWAS methods FA 122 superior trees (SSTs). SSTs were genotyped DArTseq,...
Abstract 1. The present study quantified egg and pupal cannibalism, interspecific predation on eggs pupae, by larvae adults of seven species flour beetle ( Tribolium spp.) under laboratory conditions: T. anaphe , brevicornis castaneum confusum destructor freemani madens . 2. Variation among in cannibalism propensities did not reflect taxonomic affinities within the genus, indicating that these behaviours were shaped ecology at level. 3. Within species, displayed different for predation,...
Introduction. Les cultures maraichères occupent une place importante pour l’alimentation humaine et contribuent significativement aux revenus des familles en Afrique de l’Ouest, mais leur production est confrontée à pression bioagresseurs qui limite productivité. Littérature. Cette revue, basée sur publications scientifiques, a objectif d’évaluer le potentiel plantes pesticides comme alternative l’usage synthèse lutter contre les l’Ouest. Elle montre que principal moyen actuel combattre ces...
Abstract Seven mango seeds of Ivorian varieties, that is, Amelie , Kent Keitt Brooks Palmer Dadiani and Djakoumankoun were collected from Northern Ivory Coast as wastes local processing factories markets; their kernels then quickly separated sun‐dried to ensure lipases inactivation. This study was carried out elucidate (1) the variability in proximate composition (protein, ash, fat content) so‐obtained (2) characteristics extracted including acidity, peroxide value, unsaponifiable matters,...
Summary: Risks and valorization of insects in a food feed contextIn context dwindling lands resources, associated with strong dependence on protein for food, new methods production and/or must be developed without affecting the quality natural habitat biodiversity animal vegetable species. As such, appear more as solution future. To date, consumption is indicated by term "entomophagy", from Ancient Greek "entomos" meaning insect "phagos" food. In such context, global evaluation entomophagy...
Experiments were carried out to investigate the egg-laying behaviour of maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motsch. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in uninfested and previously infested (termed conditioned here) grains. The number offspring produced preferred grain type weevil examined under laboratory conditions, along with effect presence egg plugs on oviposition site selection. progeny was higher maize. highest lowest adults emerged from maize, respectively. S. individuals significantly more...
RésuméLes observations faites sur deux cucurbitacées africaines, Lagenaria siceraria Molina (Standl.) et Citrullus lanatus Thumb (Matsum & Nakai) ont permis d’inventorier l’entomofaune (utiles ravageurs) associée à la pratique culturale. L’évaluation des dégâts occasionnés par les ravageurs a mis en évidence leur impact production. Suivant un schéma expérimental, parcelles de 49 m2 traitées au CYPERCAL 50 EC (50 g/l Cypermétrine) FURADAN 5G g/kg Carbofuran) non été disposées blocs...
Description of the subject. Shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa C.F.Gaertn.) is an essential component natural/semi-natural savannas and agroforestry systems Africa. It contributes to local household incomes represents important cash crop for export. improve our knowledge about viability genetic diversity “plus shea tree” (PST: trees whose superiority has not yet been proven by appropriate progeny test) genotypes conserve species potential producing improved species. Objectives. We characterized...
Abstract Mango ( Mangifera indica L .) seeds is an interesting source of fat, rich in stearic (St) and oleic (O) acid with three major triacylglycerols (TAG): StOSt, StOO, StLSt. The kernel fat content quality depend however on the varieties their origin. objective this study was to investigate crystallization polymorphic behavior mango extracted from selected Ivorian which differ terms TAG composition: Kent (KT), Djakoumankoun (DN) Brooks (BR). isothermal examined at 15 20°C by pulsed...
