ABSTRACT
Leguminous plant products have a great nutritional and economic importance in the European Union, which is reflected by its protein policy. These harvested yields are risked by stored product pests, such as Acanthoscelides obtectus Say, which can cause even 50-60% loss in stored bean items. The bean weevil cause both quantitative and qualitative damage to seeds. We aimed to map the qualitative damage of this devastating pest, which deteriorates the nutritional content of bean kernels. Besides, our purpose was to determine accurately the decrease in the volume and density alteration in bean caused by this important stored product pest using CT-assisted imaging analysis. Our results showed that the nutritional arrangement in damaged bean has been caused by A. obtectus. The measured nutrient content increment in damaged samples can be explained by the presence of extraneous organic material which is originating from perished specimens of the bruchin pest. This is a negative phenomenon in bean items used as forage, because of the disappearance of valuable proteins and occurring of rancidity in herbal oils. Weight loss triggered by developing larvae was 49.42% in examined bean items. The use of 3D technologies has greatly improved and facilitated the detailed investigation of injured seeds. The density (75,834 HU; 41.93%) and the volume (296.162 mm3; 26.21%) values measured by CT of the examined samples were significantly decreased. The decreasing of tissues density in damaged beans can be accounted for by the consumption of starch present at high ratio and that of the dense reserve components in the cotyledons.
