Abstract

In a recent paper, MITCHELL (1975) experimentally investigated the oviposition behavior of weevils on mung beans. In this paper, we develop a stochastic model to study the oviposition tactics of the female weevils on beans.

Time-kill curves have frequently been employed to study the antimicrobial effects of antibiotics. The relevance of pharmacodynamic modeling to these investigations has been emphasized in many studies of bactericidal kinetics. Stochastic models are needed that take into account the randomness of the
