  abstract = {{T}he present study was aimed at characterizing differences in mate acceptance and host plant recognition between {B}usseola fusca ({L}ep.: {N}octuidae) reared for several generations under laboratory conditions and wild conspecifics, directly collected from maize stems in the field. {T}he mating {S}uccess was significantly higher in laboratory reared when compared with the wild {B}. fusca population. {O}viposition on artificial stems was significantly higher for laboratory-reared insects than for the wild ones. {M}oreover, unlike adults of the wild strain, laboratory-reared {B}. fusca showed no preference to oviposit on surrogate stems impregnated with maize extracts. {L}ong-range attraction to the host plant was significantly lower for laboratory-reared insects. {F}urthermore, the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism ({PCR}-{RFLP}) analysis of mitochondrial {DNA} showed that the wild type and laboratory populations belonged to the same genetic strain, indicating that these differences between the populations were mainly phenotypic.},
