麦红吸浆虫不同滞育期四种糖代谢酶活力分析

海藻糖是麦红吸浆虫Sitodiplosis mosellana (Gehin)滞育期间储藏能量的主要物质,为弄清其在滞育期的积累机理,本文测定了麦红吸浆虫滞育前后和滞育期糖原磷酸化酶（Gpase）、己糖激酶（HK）、磷酸果糖激酶（PFK）和醛缩酶（ALD）这4种糖代谢酶活力的变化。结果表明: 麦红吸浆虫滞育前后这些糖代谢酶活力明显不同,滞育后Gpase 活力显著提高,糖酵解有关酶HK,PFK和ALD活力降低;滞育解除后,Gpase 活力降低,HK,PFK和ALD活力升高。滞育期间,4种糖代谢酶的活力均与滞育发育有关;同时Gpase 和PFK的活力也与环境温度有关,即夏、冬季高于春、秋季;同期不同滞育状态幼虫比较,裸露幼虫HK,PFK和ALD活力总是略高于结茧幼虫,Gpase则相反。滞育当年与第2年同期幼虫4种糖代谢酶的活力无显著差异。

小麦吸浆虫滞育幼虫甘油含量的季节变化(英文)

采用比色分析方法测定了小麦吸浆虫Sitodiplosis mosellana滞育期间幼虫甘油含量的季节变化。结果表明,幼虫离穗入土以前,甘油含量很低,仅为2.96±1.19μg/mg。幼虫离穗入土后,甘油含量急剧升高。入土后5d,甘油含量即上升为6.58±1.11μg/mg;至入土后17d,甘油含量达到高峰,12.21±2.21μg/mg。以后随时间的短期变化其含量变化不大,但随季节变化表现了一定的规律性,呈现了上升——下降——再上升——再下降的变化趋势,即夏季和冬季含量较高,秋季和春季含量较低。结茧幼虫和裸露幼虫比较,结茧幼虫的甘油含量在盛夏和冬季略高于裸露幼虫,秋季和春季时二者含量相当,两者在统计学上并无显著的差异。同一季节的当年滞育幼虫和进入第2年滞育幼虫的甘油含量无明显差异。由此可见,小麦吸浆虫幼虫滞育期间,甘油含量受季节或滞育深度的影响较大。     

麦红吸浆虫幼虫不同滞育时期体内山梨醇含量及山梨醇脱氢酶基因表达水平变化

【目的】本研究旨在明确麦红吸浆虫Sitodiplosis mosellana(Géhin)滞育进程中山梨醇含量及山梨醇脱氢酶基因(SmSDH)mRNA表达水平的变化规律,探讨麦红吸浆虫滞育与山梨醇含量及SmSDH表达水平的关系。【方法】分别采用比色法和实时荧光定量PCR方法,对2013年5月-2014年3月不同时间陕西杨凌养虫圃内麦红吸浆虫滞育前后及滞育期幼虫体内山梨醇含量及SmSDH2a和SmSDH2b mRNA表达水平进行分析。【结果】麦红吸浆虫幼虫滞育前山梨醇含量最高(为9.41μg/mg);滞育期间,12月份含量最高(为8.50μg/mg);滞育解除后山梨醇含量为3.25~3.49μg/mg,显著低于滞育前和整个滞育期(P0.05)。山梨醇脱氢酶基因SmSDH2a及SmSDH2b在滞育进程中mRNA表达水平变化趋势相同,且与滞育强度递减趋势一致,即进入滞育后表达水平显著降低(P0.05)并一直稳定在较低水平,滞育解除后逐渐升高并达到最高。滞育期间,同期不同滞育状态幼虫之间山梨醇含量和SmSDH2a表达水平差异不明显,但裸露幼虫SmSDH2b表达水平始终高于结茧幼虫。【结论】山梨醇和SmSDH参与麦红吸浆虫滞育调控,与滞育维持和解除密切相关。     

麦红吸浆虫滞育发生和解除过程中保护酶活力动态

采用保护酶活性测试盒分别测定了麦红吸浆虫滞育前、滞育期及滞育解除后过氧化物酶（POD）、超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）和过氧化氢酶（CAT）等3种保护酶的活力.结果表明：幼虫从老熟到进入滞育的初期,3种保护酶的活力均呈下降趋势.滞育年周期中,SOD和CAT活力对环境温度的反应相同,即低温促进其活力升高,高温导致其活力下降;POD活力与环境温度和滞育发育有关;整个滞育期间,裸露幼虫和结茧幼虫3种保护酶的活力随季节变化趋势相同,但同期的裸露幼虫活力略高于结茧幼虫;不同滞育年限幼虫3种保护酶的活力差异不显著.滞育解除后,3种保护酶的活力均随生长发育进程逐渐升高.

采用气相色谱法测定了不同时期麦红吸浆虫Sitodiplosismosellana (Gehin)幼虫脂肪酸的变化。结果表明 :幼虫脂肪酸组分有 1 0～ 1 6种 ,其中主要以棕榈酸 (C1 6:0 )、油酸 (C1 8:1 )和亚油酸 (C1 8:2 ) 3种组分为主 ,占全部脂肪酸总量的 95 %以上 ;其次是硬脂酸 (C1 8:0 )含量较高 ,约占 2 %～ 3 .5 % ;其它组分脂肪酸含量很少 ,均在 1 %以下。从 5月中下旬麦红吸浆虫幼虫离穗入土进入越夏至翌年 4月化蛹羽化前 ,脂肪酸组分表现了由少到多的变化趋势。越夏、越冬幼虫及越冬后未进入活动状态的圆茧其脂肪酸组分中不含花生酸 (C2 0 :0 ) ,而且饱和脂肪酸含量明显少于越冬后进入活动状态的幼虫和麦穗幼虫 ;而越冬后进入活动状态的幼虫和麦穗幼虫脂肪酸组分中含有一定量的花生酸 ,不饱和脂肪酸含量明显少于越夏、越冬幼虫及越冬后未进入活动状态的圆茧 ,故花生酸的有无及饱和脂肪酸与不饱和脂肪酸含量的比例变化可作为判断麦红吸浆虫幼虫活动状态 ,特别是滞育不同深度的生化指标之一     

麦红吸浆虫热激蛋白基因SmHsp40的克隆及其在滞育进程中和极端温度胁迫下的表达

【目的】麦红吸浆虫Sitodiplosis mosellana是一种典型的专性滞育昆虫,滞育过程中经历酷暑和严寒。本研究旨在探讨麦红吸浆虫热激蛋白基因Hsp40在滞育中的作用。【方法】以麦红吸浆虫滞育前幼虫为材料,利用RT-PCR和RACE技术克隆Hsp40全长cDNA序列;利用生物信息学软件分析该基因及其编码蛋白的特性;采用实时荧光定量PCR技术分析其在滞育不同阶段幼虫及越夏滞育幼虫在短期(≤120 min)极端高温(35～50℃)和越冬滞育幼虫在短期极端低温(0～-15℃)胁迫下的表达模式。【结果】克隆获得麦红吸浆虫Hsp40基因,命名为SmHsp40(GenBank登录号:MH001167),其cDNA全长1 553 bp,开放阅读框长为1 074 bp,编码357个氨基酸,相对分子量为40.87 kD,理论等电点为5.31。推导的氨基酸序列中含有Hsp40蛋白家族典型的J结构域和HPD基序。蛋白序列相似性和系统进化关系分析表明,SmHsp40蛋白与冈比亚按蚊Anopheles gambiae等长角亚目(Nematocera)昆虫Hsp40的相似性最高、亲缘关系最近。麦红吸浆虫滞育不同时期幼虫SmHsp40表达量存在显著差异,进入滞育后表达量上调;滞育进程中,夏季7-8月和冬季12月至翌年1月表达量显著高于其他季节。与未处理的对照相比,40℃处理越夏滞育幼虫和-10℃处理越冬滞育幼虫1 h明显诱导SmHsp40的表达,但超过45℃或低于-15℃极端温度处理诱导效果均不明显。【结论】SmHsp40参与了麦红吸浆虫滞育进程,可能在滞育状态的维持及滞育期间耐热和耐寒能力的调控方面起重要作用。

中红侧沟茧蜂寄生对寄主粘虫血淋巴糖类、脂类和蛋白质含量的影响

为揭示寄生蜂寄生对其寄主的生理调控机制, 室内对中红侧沟茧蜂Microplitis mediator寄生与未被寄生寄主粘虫Mythimna separata幼虫血淋巴中糖类、脂类和蛋白含量变化进行了测定。结果显示: 在滞育与非滞育条件下, 被寄生的粘虫血淋巴中糖原浓度均比未被寄生的粘虫高。滞育条件下寄生后12 d差异显著（P<0.05）, 被寄生粘虫糖原含量为7.93 μg/mL, 未被寄生粘虫糖原含量为4.70 μg/mL; 非滞育条件下寄生后6 d差异显著（P<0.05）, 被寄生粘虫糖原含量为14.35 μg/mL, 未被寄生粘虫糖原含量为5.47 μg/mL。海藻糖含量测定结果显示, 在滞育条件下寄生蜂对被寄生粘虫无明显影响, 而非滞育条件下影响效果差异显著（P<0.05）, 寄生后4 d被寄生粘虫海藻糖含量为46.82 μg/mL, 未被寄生粘虫含量为26.72 μg/mL。在滞育与非滞育两种条件下, 寄生与未被寄生寄主脂类和蛋白含量没有显著性差异。结果说明: 寄生蜂的存在使寄主血淋巴中的糖原含量增高; 非滞育条件是影响被寄生粘虫海藻糖含量变化主要因素; 粘虫对中红侧沟茧蜂的寄生表现相当强的适应性和忍受力。     

大斑芫菁滞育幼虫在滞育不同阶段体内糖类和醇类含量的变化

在以卵滞育的昆虫中昆虫滞育时的生理代谢特点已经得到了大量研究。本文对以末龄幼虫（5龄）滞育的大斑芫菁Mylabris phalerate（Pallas）在不同滞育阶段体内糖类和醇类代谢的特征进行了研究。结果表明： 滞育个体血淋巴中的海藻糖含量高于非滞育个体,且随滞育时间的加大逐渐升高,滞育5个月时达到最大值,为5.61 μmol/mL。糖原的含量随滞育的进程逐渐减少,滞育初期（0.5个月）为0.72 mg/mL,到滞育末期（5个月）时仅为0.1 mg/mL。滞育个体脂肪体中的海藻糖含量都高于非滞育个体,滞育1个月时为非滞育个体的3倍,至滞育末期时达非滞育个体的5倍,为2.5 μmol/g脂肪体。糖原含量总体变化趋势是随滞育时间的加大逐渐减少,滞育早期和中期都高于非滞育个体。在滞育过程中血淋巴积累的小分子多元醇主要为甘油,其次是山梨醇;而在脂肪体中主要为甘油,其次是甘露醇,少量积累山梨醇：表明大斑芫菁滞育幼虫主要积累的是海藻糖和一些小分子多元醇。滞育幼虫在准备滞育时储备了大量糖原,这些糖原可能为滞育期间海藻糖、山梨醇和甘油的代谢提供了原料。     

CHANGES OF GLYCEROL CONTENT IN DIAPAUSE LARVAE OF THE ORANGE WHEAT BLOSSOM MIDGE, SITODIPLOSIS MOSELLANA (GEHIN) IN VARIOUS SEASONS

Abstract  The glycerol contents in diapause larvae of the orange wheat blossom midge, Sitodiplosis mosellana (Gehin), collected from various seasons, were measured. The results showed that there was less glycerol content in larvae during living on the wheat head. Content of glycerol began to increase significantly when the larvae left the wheat head and entered the soil. A change trend of upper- lower- upper- lower in larvae glycerol contents during diapause in soil was observed from June to April of next year. More glycerol could be examined in larvae collected in summer and winter than in spring and autumn. There was not more glycerol in cocooned larvae than that in non-cocooned larvae during various seasons from the point of statistics. Comparing the glycerol content of larvae being diapause in the first year with that of larvae in the second year, there was yet no obvious difference when larvae were collected in the same season belonged to different years. Therefore, it is shown that the content of glycerol in larvae of the wheat midge in diapause is affected mainly by the seasons or diapause intensity.     

Water and carbohydrate levels at different developmental stages and dynamics in hibernating pupae of Pieris melete (Lepidoptera: Pieridae)

For insight into the physiological indicators of diapause in Pieris melete, water and carbohydrate (glycogen and trehalose) levels were measured under both natural and laboratory conditions. The highest water content (3.71–3.79 mg/mg dry weight) was found in larvae and developing pupae, which was substantially higher than in diapausing pupae (2.59 mg/mg dry weight). Water content was almost stable during diapause, except for individuals approaching diapause termination (3.43–3.58 mg/mg dry weight). The total carbohydrate level was significantly higher in pre‐pupae (47.41 μg/mg) compared to larvae (22.80 μg/mg) and developing pupae (21.48 μg/mg). The highest level of trehalose was detected in winter diapausing pupae, and no trehalose was found in larvae or developing pupae. Levels of glycogen were highest in pre‐pupae and lowest in diapausing pupae. Levels of total carbohydrate decreased as diapause proceeded, and no significant changes were found in trehalose levels for diapausing pupae under natural conditions or treated for 60–90 days at 5°C. Pupae treated at 20°C for 60–90 days had significantly lower levels of trehalose than those treated for 30 days. Glycogen content was relatively stable at 5°C, but increased after treatment under natural conditions and 20°C for more than 60 days. These results suggest that the dynamics of water and carbohydrate levels are potential physiological diapause indicators, which show metabolic differences between trehalose and glycogen during diapause development.     

Metabolic dynamics across prolonged diapause development in larvae of the sawfly,Cephalcia chuxiongica (Hymenoptera: Pamphiliidae)

Nutrient metabolism is crucial for the survival of insects through the diapause. However, little is known about the metabolic mechanism of prolonged diapause. The sawfly, Cephalcia chuxiongica (Hymenoptera: Pamphiliidae), is a notorious defoliator of pine trees in southwest China. One of the distinguishing biological characteristics of this pest is the prolonged diapause of about 1.5 years. In this study, the body lipid, carbohydrate (total body sugar, glycogen, trehalose, and glucose), protein, and glycerol contents were measured in diapausing larvae of C. chuxiongica. The results showed that the changes of biochemical composition in C. chuxiongica are associated with the diapause initiation, maintenance, and termination phases. During the initiation phase, trehalose, glucose, and glycerol increased significantly, but glycogen decreased sharply. In general, the lipid, carbohydrate, and glycerol levels decreased gradually across the maintenance phase. At termination phase, the contents of glycogen and lipid persistently decreased, while an increase of trehalose, glucose, and glycerol contents were detected. The protein level was significantly higher at maintenance phase than at initiation and termination phases. It was also found that elevation of trehalose, glucose, and glycerol contents occurred in winter. These implies that the metabolites with altered levels in diapausing larvae of C. chuxiongica are responsible for maintaining a prolonged development and overwintering.     

二化螟滞育幼虫的蛋白和核酸含量以及保护酶活性的变化

为了阐明二化螟Chilo supprressalis滞育幼虫的分子特征及滞育期间保护酶活性的变化规律, 本研究应用Trizol法、 总量DNA提取法和蛋白定量试剂盒, 测定了在长光周期16L∶8D和25℃下发育的非滞育老熟幼虫、 在短光周期12L∶12D 和25℃下诱导滞育51 d的幼虫（称为滞育0个月）、 滞育1, 2和3个月幼虫的核酸含量和总蛋白含量; 同时应用试剂盒测定了老熟幼虫、 滞育0, 1和2个月的二化螟幼虫5种保护酶（POD, CAT, SOD, LDH和ATP酶）的活性。结果表明： 滞育幼虫的总RNA含量显著低于非滞育的老熟幼虫（P<0.05）, 而滞育1, 2和3个月的幼虫之间没有显著差异（P≥0.05）。老熟幼虫的总DNA含量显著高于滞育幼虫（P<0.05）。老熟幼虫的RNA/DNA比值较低, 滞育幼虫的RNA/DNA比值较高, RNA/DNA比值随着滞育时间的推移呈现出先上升后下降的趋势。滞育期大于1个月的幼虫中蛋白含量均显著高于非滞育的老熟幼虫（P<0.05）, 而滞育1, 2和3个月的幼虫之间没有显著差异（P≥0.05）。二化螟幼虫体内5种保护酶活性随发育阶段不同而存在差异。滞育幼虫中POD, CAT和SOD的活性随滞育时间延长而逐渐增强, 滞育2个月幼虫中的活性最高, 而非滞育老熟幼虫中的活性最低; LDH和ATP酶的活性则相反, 非滞育老熟幼虫中的活性最高, 滞育2个月幼虫中的活性最低。这些结果说明, 总RNA和DNA含量降低、 RNA/DNA比值先升后降、 总蛋白含量升高以及保护酶活性的变化是二化螟幼虫滞育过程中的主要生理特征。     

Effect of soil burial depth and wetting on mortality of diapausing larvae and patterns of post-diapause adult emergence of sorghum midge, Stenodiplosis sorghicola (Coquillett) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)

Abstract  In south-eastern Queensland, Australia, sorghum planted in early spring usually escapes sorghum midge, Stenodiplosis sorghicola , attack. Experiments were conducted to better understand the role of winter diapause in the population dynamics of this pest. Emergence patterns of adult midge from diapausing larvae on the soil surface and at various depths were investigated during spring to autumn of 1987/88–1989/90. From 1987/88 to 1989/90, 89%, 65% and 98% of adult emergence, respectively, occurred during November and December. Adult emergence from larvae diapausing on the soil surface was severely reduced due to high mortality attributed to surface soil temperatures in excess of 40°C, with much of this mortality occurring between mid-September and mid-October. Emergence of adults from the soil surface was considerably delayed in the 1988/89 season compared with larvae buried at 5 or 10 cm which had similar emergence patterns for all three seasons. In 1989/90, when a 1-cm-deep treatment was included, there was a 392% increase in adult emergence from this treatment compared with deeper treatments. Some diapausing larvae on the surface did not emerge at the end of summer in only 1 year (1989/90), when 28.0% of the larvae on the surface remained in diapause, whereas only 0.8% of the buried larvae remained in diapause. We conclude that the pattern of emergence explains why spring plantings of sorghum in south-eastern Queensland usually escape sorghum midge attack.     

Difference in nutrient accumulation patterns between diapause-destined and non-diapause-destined larvae of Hyphantria cunea

Nutrient accumulation is crucial in insect diapause preparation because insufficient nutrient accumulation can shorten the diapause period, interfere with diapause development completion, and decrease the probability of surviving the overwintering period. The amounts of lipids and carbohydrates stored in diapausing pupae of Hyphantria cunea (Drury) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae, Arctiinae) are greater than those in the non-diapausing pupae. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that diapause-destined (DD) and non-diapause-destined (NDD) larvae of H. cunea have different nutrient accumulation patterns in penultimate and final instars. The body mass, as well as lipid, carbohydrate, and soluble protein contents, and the efficiency of converting digested food and ingested food into body matter were greater in the DD penultimate and final instars than in the NDD penultimate and final instars. Larger amounts of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins were absorbed by DD penultimate and final instars and the final instar development period in the DD larvae was prolonged relative to NDD larvae. The activities of fatty acid synthase and glycogen synthase of DD penultimate and final instars were significantly higher than those of NDD larvae. These results suggest that the changes in nutrient accumulation patterns between DD and NDD larvae occur in penultimate and final instars, and that the DD larvae increase their nutrient accumulation during diapause preparation by the combined effect of extending their final-instar development period and improving their digestive efficiency; they increase their lipid and carbohydrate stores by increasing the activities of fatty acid synthase and glycogen synthase in the fat body.
