HIGHLIGHTS
- Surfactin reduced the feeding of the genus Oulema on spring wheat and spring barley.
- Surfactin is stable in different range of temperature, salinity or pH of environment.
- The insects laid fewer eggs on plants treated with the surfactin.
- Surfactin can contribute positively to the biological control of the genus Oulema.

ABSTRACT
The study objective was to investigate the influence of microbiologically obtained surfactin
on the feeding and development of Oulema melanopus and Oulema gallaeciana on spring
wheat (Triticum aestivum) and spring barley (Hordeum vulgare). The purified bioproduct
was applied to the leaves of cereal plants at a concentration of 660.5 mg · l–1. The tests were
conducted as a no-choice test and a choice test. Pest feeding and egg-laying were analyzed.
The addition of surfactin to the food reduced the feeding of female and male tested insects
as compared to controls. Male pests caused less damage to plants than females. Insect feeding
on surfactin-treated plants was low in the first days of the experiment. The tested insects
laid fewer eggs on plants treated with the biosurfactant. In terms of food selection, both
female and male Oulema spp. were much more likely to choose food to which surfactin
had not been applied. It can thus be concluded that surfactin can contribute positively to
the biological control of beetles of the genus Oulema under natural conditions. However,
further research is needed to better understand the mechanisms by which analogues of this
compound limit the development of this cereal pest in its natural environment.
