| An experiment was carried out to evaluate infestation levels by flour beetles Tribolium spp. on three crops at local grain store in shaeb city (North – East of Baghdad) during six months storage period starting from first of May 2005 to 15th of October 2005. Our results have showed that local barely was more sensitive to the insect larvae and adult followed by wheat and corn seeds. Data indicated that the highest mean numbers of a live larvae and adults in these seeds reached between 6.7 – 43.8 , 24.3 – 48.8 and 14.6 – 69.6 for corn, wheat and barely respectively. A positve relationship was observed between rate of grain infestation, storage temperature, relative humidity and storage periods. | ||
