Las larvas se aprovechan de parte de los jugos de la planta para su desarrollo y en consecuencia, los granos afectados quedan arrugados. Como efectos secundarios, se acusa una reducción en el poder de germinación y en el peso de la semilla y calidad inferior de la harina para la panificación. 2, record 3, Spanish, - mosquito%20del%20trigo
