dc.description.abstractThe rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae, is one of the most pernicious pests of stored grain. It is a primary pest and causes a reduction in weight, quality, seed viability and commercial value of various cereals. For this study, we reared S. oryzae on wheat grains under two different adult densities, low and high, with an aim to assess the influence of population density on fluctuating asymmetry of the adult’s ventral body. Fluctuating asymmetry represents slight and random deviations from bilateral symmetry normally distributed around a 0 mean, and its level is usually higher under a disturbed developmental process. Accordingly, we expected that environmental stress caused by higher density would increase its level. Opposite to our hypothesis, the study showed that population density did not influence fluctuating asymmetry of S. oryzae adults. Both experimental populations exhibited a similar, non-significant level of fluctuating asymmetry.sr
