5种杀虫剂对胡瓜钝绥螨的影响

本文采用几种不同方法测定了5种常用杀虫剂对天敌胡瓜钝绥螨Neoseiulus cucumeris雌成蝤和若螨的影响。试验结果表明5种杀虫剂中1％甲胺基阿维菌素乳油在常规使用浓度范围内对胡瓜钝绥螨雌成螨和若螨的毒力都很低,释放胡瓜钝绥螨生防园可选用1％甲胺基阿维菌素乳油来防治鳞翅目害虫;5％虱螨脲（美除）乳油常规使用浓度对胡瓜钝绥螨雌成螨影响较小,但是对若螨的有一定的影响,释放捕食螨生防园尽量不使用5％虱螨脲（美除）乳油,必要时可选用低浓度进行挑治;1％苦参碱可溶性液剂在常规使用浓度范围内对胡瓜钝绥螨雌成螨和若螨毒力均较强,因此释放捕食螨生防园不宜使用;99％绿颖乳油和15％哒螨灵乳油在常规使用浓度范围内对胡瓜钝绥螨的毒性都极强,释放胡瓜钝绥螨生防园如果使用这2种农药会对天敌胡瓜钝绥螨造成毁灭性杀伤,因此在释放捕食螨生防园不可使用这2种杀虫剂。     

柑橘木虱及分泌物对胡瓜新小绥螨的吸引作用研究

在25℃温度条件下,在九里香(Murraya panicuata)嫩枝条上研究柑橘木虱Diaphorina citri Kuwayama混合虫态、卵、低龄若虫、高龄若虫、柑橘木虱分泌物对胡瓜新小绥螨Neoseiulus cucumeirs(Oudemans)雌螨的吸引作用,以探索与评价捕食螨对柑橘木虱各虫态及分泌物的趋向性。研究发现:1.柑橘木虱混合虫态对胡瓜新小绥螨的吸引作用在试验后第2小时经测验达到显著水平(P<0.05),第3小时达极显著水平(P<0.01),表明柑橘木虱混合虫态对胡瓜新小绥螨有很强的吸引作用;2.柑橘木虱卵对胡瓜新小绥螨雌成螨无吸引作用;3.试验开始后第1⁵小时在试验区胡瓜新小绥螨数量分别高于空白区25.00%、18.33%、13.33%、15.00%和23.33%,柑橘木虱低龄若虫对胡瓜新小绥螨有较强烈的吸引作用;4.柑橘木虱高龄若虫对胡瓜新小绥螨吸引作用在第1小时最高,第25小时在试验区胡瓜新小绥螨数量分别高于空白区25.00%、18.33%、13.33%、15.00%和23.33%,柑橘木虱低龄若虫对胡瓜新小绥螨有较强烈的吸引作用;4.柑橘木虱高龄若虫对胡瓜新小绥螨吸引作用在第1小时最高,第2³小时最低,第4小时开始回升,第5小时可达到51.67%。可见柑橘木虱高龄若虫对胡瓜新小绥螨有一定的吸引作用;5.柑橘木虱分泌物对胡瓜新小绥螨吸引作用在第1小时最高,试验区胡瓜新小绥螨数量高于空白区33.33%、胡瓜新小绥螨不能取食柑橘木虱分泌物,第2小时胡瓜新小绥螨向外逃跑的比率增加。但胡瓜新小绥螨在试验区数量仍高于试验区,柑橘木虱分泌物对胡瓜新小绥螨也有一定的吸引作用。本试验环境开放,模拟自然状态。在柑橘木虱混合虫态发生的情况下,胡瓜新小绥螨对其具备搜寻能力。     

枸杞木虱成虫携带瘿螨越冬

多年来一直认为枸杞瘿螨Aceria pallida Kefer以成螨在树皮缝和芽缝内越冬,我们在宁夏中宁最新调查发现,大量瘿螨若螨潜伏于枸杞木虱越冬成虫体壁缝隙,尤其以后足基节与腹部缝隙最多。初步调查结果显示,越冬枸杞木虱Poratrioza sinica Yang et Li成虫雌性和雄性成虫均携带瘿螨成螨和若螨,平均2~3头,最多的可达30头。如果枸杞瘿螨随枸杞木虱越冬成虫越冬成为主要途径,那么对枸杞木虱越冬成虫的防治将成为控制枸杞瘿螨危害的重要防治策略和技术手段。     

圆果大赤螨对桑树害虫的捕食功能反应

在室内条件下研究了圆果大赤螨对桑树害虫朱砂叶螨、桑蓟马和桑粉虱的捕食作用。结果表明,圆果大赤螨对3种猎物的捕食功能反应均符合HollingⅡ功能反应模型,经χ2检验,理论值与观测值差异不显著。捕食功能反应参数表明圆果大赤螨对桑蓟马、朱砂叶螨和桑粉虱捕食量差异显著,其最大日捕食量理论值分别为:416.67、222.22、97.09头。圆果大赤螨对猎物的搜寻效应均随猎物密度的增加而呈线性下降,且取食桑蓟马的搜寻效应明显高于朱砂叶螨和桑粉虱。HollingⅢ型功能反应新模型拟合得出,1头圆果大赤螨对桑蓟马、朱砂叶螨、桑粉虱的最佳寻找密度分别为77.54头、70.49头和27.27头。研究表明,圆果大赤螨对桑树害虫捕食能力依次为桑蓟马朱砂叶螨桑粉虱,且对3种害虫均具有较强捕食能力,是桑园害虫的重要天敌资源。

Role for dopamine in malonate-induced damage in vivo in striatum and in vitro in mesencephalic cultures

Defects in mitochondrial energy metabolism have been implicated in the pathology of several neurodegenerative disorders. In addition, the reactive metabolites generated from the metabolism and oxidation of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) are thought to contribute to the damage to neurons of the basal ganglia. We have previously demonstrated that infusions of the metabolic inhibitor malonate into the striata of mice or rats produce degeneration of DA nerve terminals. In the present studies, we demonstrate that an intrastriatal infusion of malonate induces a substantial increase in DA efflux in awake, behaving mice as measured by in vivo microdialysis. Furthermore, pretreatment of mice with tetrabenazine (TBZ) or the TBZ analogue Ro 4-1284 (Ro-4), compounds that reversibly inhibit the vesicular storage of DA, attenuates the malonate-induced DA efflux as well as the damage to DA nerve terminals. Consistent with these findings, the damage to both DA and GABA neurons in mesencephalic cultures by malonate exposure was attenuated by pretreatment with TBZ or Ro-4. Treatment with these compounds did not affect the formation of free radicals or the inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation resulting from malonate exposure alone. Our data suggest that DA plays an important role in the neurotoxicity produced by malonate. These findings provide direct evidence that inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase causes an increase in extracellular DA levels and indicate that bioenergetic defects may contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic neurodegenerative diseases through a mechanism involving DA.     

Changes in lactate dehydrogenase activity in chicken tissues in hyperthyreosis in ontogenesis

The lactate dehydrogenase activity in reactions of lactate oxidation and synthesis was studied in subfractions of the chicken brain, heart and liver at the embryonal, early postembryonal and adult stages of development after thyroxine administration. It has been shown that during embryogenesis thyroxine predominantly enhanced the rate of lactate oxidation in the mitochondrial tissues. A marked increase in the lactate synthesis was found in cytoplasm of the adult chicken tissues. Specificity of enzyme activity alterations was detected in the chicken brain during ontogenesis after thyroxine administration.     

Scurvy in capybaras bred in captivity in Argentine

In order to determine if the absence of vitamin C in the diet of capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) causes scurvy, a group of seven young individuals were fed food pellets without ascorbic acid, while another group of eight individuals received the same food with 1 g of ascorbic acid per animal per day. Animals in the first group developed signs of scurvy-like gingivitis, breaking of the incisors and death of one animal. Clinical signs appeared between 25 and 104 days from the beginning of the trial in all individuals. Growth rates of individuals deprived of vitamin C was considerably less than those observed in the control group. Deficiency of ascorbic acid had a severe effect on reproduction of another population of captive capybaras. We found that the decrease in ascorbic acid content in the diet affected pregnancy, especially during the first stages. The results obtained suggest that it is necessary to supply a suitable quantity of vitamin C in the diet of this species in captivity.     

SSTR5 ablation in islet results in alterations in glucose homeostasis in mice

Somatostatin (SST) peptide is a potent inhibitor of insulin secretion and its effect is mediated via somatostatin receptor 5 (SSTR5) in the endocrine pancreas. To investigate the consequences of gene ablation of SSTR5 in the mouse pancreas, we have generated a mouse model in which the SSTR5 gene was specifically knocked down in the pancreatic beta cells (betaSSTR5Kd) using the Cre-lox system. Immunohistochemistry analysis showed that SSTR5 gene expression was absent in beta cells at three months of age. At the time of gene ablation, betaSSTR5Kd mice demonstrated glucose intolerance with lack of insulin response and significantly reduced serum insulin levels. Insulin tolerance test demonstrated a significant increase of insulin clearance in vivo at the same age. In vitro studies demonstrated an absence of response to SST-28 stimulation in the betaSSTR5Kd mouse islet, which was associated with a significantly reduced SST expression level in betaSSTR5Kd mice pancreata. In addition, betaSSTR5Kd mice had significantly reduced serum glucose levels and increased serum insulin levels at 12 months of age. Glucose tolerance test at an older age also indicated a persistently higher insulin level in betaSSTR5Kd mice. Further studies of betaSSTR5Kd mice had revealed elevated serum C-peptide levels at both 3 and 12 months of age, suggesting that these mice are capable of producing and releasing insulin to the periphery. These results support the hypothesis that SSTR5 plays a pivotal role in the regulation of insulin secretion in the mouse pancreas.
