小菜蛾卵作为赤眼蜂中间寄主的寄生适合度分析

【目的】寻求快速扩繁赤眼蜂种群的寄主,试以繁殖速率较高的小菜蛾为中间寄主,评价不同赤眼蜂种类对小菜蛾卵的寄生适合度并筛选出适合的蜂种。【方法】通过构建稻螟赤眼蜂Trichogramma japonicum Ashmead(简称T.j)、螟黄赤眼蜂T chilonis Ishi(简称T.c)和斑螟分索赤眼蜂Trichogrammatoidea hypsipylae Nagaraja(简称T.h)3种赤眼蜂在小菜蛾Plutella xylostella L.卵上繁殖的实验种群生命表,分析比较其各自的生命表参数,以了解不同蜂种对小菜蛾卵的寄生适合度。【结果】在小菜蛾卵上繁殖的稻螟赤眼蜂的净生殖力R_0、内禀增长率r_m、周限增长率λ与平均世代历期T分别为4.66、0.1633、1.1809、9.2532;斑螟分索赤眼蜂的上述4项参数分别为9.10、0.2177、1.2432、10.1432;螟黄赤眼蜂对小菜蛾卵的寄生能力较差,内禀增长率r_m为0.0338,且其后代性比偏雄,雌雄性比为1♀:6.2(?),以至不能正常传代。斑螟分索赤眼蜂的平均每雌寄生卵数为15.4粒,显著高于稻螟赤眼蜂的10.0粒与螟黄赤眼蜂的8.9粒。【结论】在室内人工培育的小菜蛾卵上繁殖的稻螟赤眼蜂与斑螟分索赤眼蜂对小菜蛾卵的寄生能力较强,尤其是斑螟分索赤眼蜂的内禀增长率r_m与小菜蛾的相近,适合以小菜蛾卵作为中间寄主扩大繁殖,稻螟赤眼蜂次之,而螟黄赤眼蜂并不适合以小菜蛾卵作为中间寄主。     

螟黄赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵寄生效果评价

为了明确螟黄赤眼蜂Trichogramma chilonis对草地贪夜蛾Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith)卵寄生效果,室内组建了螟黄赤眼蜂在草地贪夜蛾卵上的实验种群生命表,调查统计了释放螟黄赤眼蜂后田间草地贪夜蛾卵的寄生率和幼虫的虫口减退率,并分析了释放距离对寄生效果的关系。结果显示,螟黄赤眼蜂在草地贪夜蛾卵上的净生殖力R0=10.8407,内禀增长率rm=0.2220,周限生长率λ=1.2486,单雌平均产雌率R0′=13.8877。放蜂区草地贪夜蛾卵块寄生率64.44%,卵粒寄生率35.42%,显著高于对照区,释放赤眼蜂第7天田间草地贪夜蛾虫口减退率58.92%,防效50.50%。释放距离为5 m内螟黄赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵寄生效果的无显著影响。结果表明螟黄赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵有较高的寄生效能,田间释放螟黄赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵具较高的寄生率和明显的幼虫虫口减退率,释放螟黄赤眼蜂对降低草地贪夜蛾虫源基数起着重要的作用。     

繁育寄主对稻螟赤眼蜂寄生行为及寄生能力的影响

【目的】繁育寄主影响赤眼蜂的生物学特性,为明确米蛾 Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton)卵繁育的稻螟赤眼蜂 Trichogramma japonicum Ashmead是否和二化螟Chilo suppressalis (Walker)卵繁育稻螟赤眼蜂在防治二化螟上有差别,及田间用米蛾卵作为稻螟赤眼蜂续代寄主的可行性,本实验观察了羽化自不同寄主的稻螟赤眼蜂的寄主选择和寄生行为,研究了两种繁育寄主对稻螟赤眼蜂寄生能力的影响,为田间防治水稻螟虫提供参考信息。【方法】室内利用选择试验观察了由米蛾卵和二化螟卵繁育出的稻螟赤眼蜂对两种寄主的选择趋性及在两种寄主上的寄生行为和寄生能力,统计了羽化子代蜂的寿命。【结果】由二化螟卵繁育的稻螟赤眼蜂表现出了对二化螟卵的选择偏好,而米蛾卵繁育的稻螟赤眼蜂在米蛾卵和二化螟卵间没有表现出寄主选择偏好。寄主搜寻时间不受繁育寄主及供试寄主的影响,卵表探测时间和穿刺及产卵时间不受繁育寄主的影响,但同一寄主繁育的稻螟赤眼蜂在米蛾卵上的卵表探测时间显著长于在二化螟卵上的卵表检测时间。除二化螟卵繁育蜂寄生二化螟卵时的寄生率（36.95%）和羽化率（45.68%）较低外,米蛾卵繁育蜂寄生米蛾卵或二化螟卵以及二化螟卵繁育蜂寄生米蛾卵等3组处理间的寄生率、羽化率均无显著差异,各处理组间子代蜂寿命也无显著差异。【结论】繁育寄主影响稻螟赤眼蜂的寄主选择和寄生能力,但不影响寄生蜂搜寻寄主的能力和寄生行为。     

繁育寄主对三种赤眼蜂个体大小及抱卵量的影响

【目的】繁育寄主及成蜂日龄均会影响赤眼蜂体内的抱卵量,为了解繁育寄主及育出赤眼蜂个体大小与赤眼蜂抱卵量的关系,我们在室内研究了米蛾 Corcyra cephalonica（Stainton）卵和亚洲玉米螟 Ostrinia furnacalis （Güenée）卵作为繁育寄主对3种赤眼蜂雌蜂大小、抱卵量的影响。【方法】在光周期14L:10D、温度25±1℃的室内条件下,以米蛾卵、亚洲玉米螟卵作为繁育寄主,解剖不同日龄（羽化后12-72 h）松毛虫赤眼蜂 Trichogramma dendrolimi Matsumura、玉米螟赤眼蜂Trichogramma ostriniae Pang et Chen以及稻螟赤眼蜂Trichogramma japonicum Ashmead,观察雌蜂抱卵量,测量成蜂的大小,分析雌蜂抱卵量与其日龄、个体大小以及繁育寄主的关系【结果】在羽化后48 h以内,3种蜂的抱卵量随雌蜂日龄的增长而增加。羽化后72 h,除米蛾卵繁育的玉米螟赤眼蜂及玉米螟卵繁育的松毛虫赤眼蜂的抱卵量比羽化后48 h时略高外,其他组合均出现下降。以亚洲玉米螟卵为繁育寄主时的玉米螟赤眼蜂的抱卵量显著高于对应日龄的以米蛾卵为繁育寄主时的抱卵量,而松毛虫赤眼蜂（除羽化后12和24 h外）和稻螟赤眼蜂则相反;以米蛾卵为繁育寄主时,相同日龄的赤眼蜂中,松毛虫赤眼蜂抱卵量最高,稻螟赤眼蜂的抱卵量最低;以亚洲玉米螟卵为繁育寄主时,玉米螟赤眼蜂抱卵量最高,稻螟赤眼蜂抱卵量最低。雌蜂抱卵量与雌蜂个体大小呈线性正相关,相关程度随雌蜂日龄增加而更加明显。【结论】后足胫节长度可以作为评价松毛虫赤眼蜂、玉米螟赤眼蜂和稻螟赤眼蜂质量的指标。赤眼蜂抱卵量受繁育寄主、赤眼蜂蜂种及雌蜂日龄的显著影响,寄主的适合性也会影响育出赤眼蜂的大小,筛选合适的繁育寄主有助于提高赤眼蜂的质量。

草地贪夜蛾Spodoptera frugiperda(Smith)是新入侵我国的重大危险性入侵害虫,赤眼蜂是我国生物防治的优势卵寄生蜂,可用于防治多种农林作物上的鳞翅目害虫。为检测东北地区本地赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵的生防潜能,筛选防治草地贪夜蛾的有效蜂种,本研究比较研究了松毛虫赤眼蜂、玉米螟赤眼蜂、黏虫赤眼蜂和稻螟赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵的寄生能力和发育适合度。结果表明,4种赤眼蜂均能寄生草地贪夜蛾卵,并完成发育,但其寄生能力和发育适合度存在显著差异。松毛虫赤眼蜂、玉米螟赤眼蜂和黏虫赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵块寄生率均高于80%,但仅松毛虫赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵表现出较高的卵粒寄生量。松毛虫赤眼蜂、玉米螟赤眼蜂和黏虫赤眼蜂子代羽化率和雌性比无显著差异,但松毛虫赤眼蜂比其它3种赤眼蜂的发育历期更短,而稻螟赤眼蜂对草地贪夜蛾卵的寄生能力和适合度均最差。研究结果将为应用本地赤眼蜂生物防治潜在入侵东北地区的草地贪夜蛾提供技术支撑。     

稻螟赤眼蜂与二种赤眼蜂对水稻二化螟卵寄生竞争作用

稻螟赤眼蜂是我国水稻二化螟的优势卵寄生蜂,本文在室内条件下,初步研究了稻螟赤眼蜂分别与松毛虫赤眼蜂和螟黄赤眼蜂在水稻二化螟卵上的种间竞争作用。结果表明,同时接入稻螟赤眼蜂和松毛虫赤眼蜂时,寄生水稻二化螟卵(40.2粒)及子代雌蜂总数(32.0头)最多,且松毛虫赤眼蜂平均寄生二化螟卵的数量(26.5粒)明显高于单独接蜂的平均寄生的数量,后代雌蜂比率(76.3%)明显低于单独接蜂时的雌蜂比率,发育历期(10.7 d)明显长于接入同种时的发育历期。而稻螟赤眼蜂和螟黄赤眼蜂共存时,螟黄赤眼蜂平均寄生二化螟卵的数量(10.3粒)、后代雌蜂比率(75.3%)以及发育历期(8.0 d)与单独接蜂时相似;同样,当稻螟赤眼蜂与松毛虫赤眼蜂混合接蜂时,稻螟赤眼蜂平均寄生二化螟卵的数量(14.4粒)、后代雌蜂比率(79.0%)以及发育历期(8.6 d)与单独接蜂时相似,但是,当稻螟赤眼蜂与螟黄赤眼蜂混合接蜂时,其后代雌蜂比率(76.7%)明显低于单独接蜂处理,而发育历期(8.8 d)明显长于单独接蜂处理。总的来看,在二化螟卵上,同时接入二种赤眼蜂时,蜂种间存在一定的竞争作用,其中混合接入稻螟赤眼蜂和松毛虫赤眼蜂时,对水稻二化螟的控制效果最佳。     

寄主利它素对稻螟赤眼蜂寄生行为的影响

对稻螟赤眼蜂Trichogrammajaponicum(Ashmead)在寄主定位过程中所利用的寄主利它素的存在部位、作用方式及其应用效果作了初步研究。生测结果表明 :寄主利它素存在于三化螟Tryporyzaincertu las(Walker)卵块盖毛和成虫鳞片中 ,其中以盖毛中利它素含量最高 ,雌蛾鳞片次之 ,雄蛾鳞片含量最少。结果还表明盖毛在卵块上的完整性对稻螟赤眼蜂的寄主搜索行为有明显影响。室内应用效果表明利它素可以使稻螟赤眼蜂对寄主卵寄生率提高 1 0 %以上。     

不同温度下稻螟赤眼蜂在黏虫卵上的种群生命表

稻螟赤眼蜂Trichogramma japonicum Ashmead是水稻二化螟Chilo suppressalis(Walker)的优势卵寄生蜂。本文构建了以黏虫卵为中间寄主,稻螟赤眼蜂在20℃、25℃、30℃、33℃四个温度条件下的生命表。研究结果表明利用黏虫卵繁育稻螟赤眼蜂时,不同温度下其生长发育和繁殖均存在显著差异,雌蜂平均寿命随温度的升高呈下降趋势,在20℃条件下,雌蜂平均寿命为1.44 d,显著长于其它温度,当温度为30~33℃时,雌蜂寿命最短,平均为0.59 d。在温度为20℃和25℃时,稻螟赤眼蜂的羽化率显著高于温度较高的30℃和33℃,平均为94.73%。在25℃条件下,黏虫卵繁育的稻螟赤眼蜂的净生殖力(R 0)最大,达到31.9176,单雌寄生卵数最多,为32.88个,表现出最强的繁殖能力,而在30℃条件下,瞬时增长率r m和周限增长率λ达到最大值。综合生命表参数、单雌寄生黏虫卵数、寿命、羽化率等指标,利用黏虫卵工厂化繁殖稻螟赤眼蜂的最佳温度为25℃。本研究为利用黏虫卵大量繁殖稻螟赤眼蜂提供了有价值的参考。     

基于微卫星引物鉴别不同地理种群玉米螟赤眼蜂和螟黄赤眼蜂

不同地理种群的赤眼蜂在遗传、生理和生态适应性等方面均表现出不同程度的分化。为探究不同地理种群的玉米螟赤眼蜂Trichogramma ostriniae和螟黄赤眼蜂Trichogramma chilonis在基因型上的差异并进行准确鉴定,本研究筛选了可用以区分不同地理种群玉米螟赤眼蜂和螟黄赤眼蜂的微卫星引物。结果表明：从已报道的10对微卫星引物中,筛选出2对引物（序列号：KT834825,KT834827）可以区分玉米螟赤眼蜂中的黑龙江地理种群与吉林和辽宁两个地理种群;并筛选出2对引物（序列号：KT834822,KT834825）可以区分黑龙江、贵州和广东3个不同地理种群的螟黄赤眼蜂。该结果进一步证实赤眼蜂不同地理种群间可能存在明显的基因型差异,研究结果为精准鉴别玉米螟赤眼蜂和螟黄赤眼蜂不同地理种群,以及进一步探寻优势种群的高效繁育与应用技术奠定了理论基础。

Trichogramma egg parasitism of Helicoverpa armigera on pigeonpea and sorghum in southern India

Trichogramma spp. (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) only rarely parasitize eggs of Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) on pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millspaugh), while on other plants including sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.)) high parasitism levels of this host are found. In this study two strategies designed to increase the parasitoid activity on pigeonpea were tested in the field: intercropping pigeonpea with sorghum and mass-releasing T. chilonis Ishii. Neither strategy led to an increase in parasitism. On pigeonpea, H. armigera oviposited >74.8% of its eggs on calyxes and pods. Parasitism levels in host eggs collected from different plant structures varied significantly with 3.6, 0.3, and 40.7% of eggs on calyxes, pods, and leaves parasitized. Earlier studies have shown that calyxes and pods possess long glandular and non-glandular trichomes, and are covered by sticky trichome exudates which inhibit parasitoid searching behaviour. Parasitism levels between 27.9 and 100% were recorded from host eggs on the intercropped sorghum. Trichogramma chilonis was the dominant parasitoid species. The mean clutch size was 2.03, but up to six parasitoids emerged per egg. Progeny sex ratio (% females) decreased with clutch size, from 63.1% at a clutch size of one to 46.0% at a clutch size of five. Sticky trap catches showed that while the parasitoid population in sorghum increased when H. armigera started ovipositing, the population within pigeonpea did not benefit from either a high parasitoid population in sorghum or a high host egg density on pigeonpea. During one of five seasons studied, however, high parasitism levels (up to 73%) were recorded on pigeonpea. During this season, H. armigera oviposited on pigeonpea plants in the vegetative growth stage and a high proportion of eggs were collected from leaves. Parasitism levels were positively correlated with the percentage of eggs collected from leaves. This study shows that the parasitization efficiency of Trichogramma spp. on pigeonpea depends mainly on the location of the host eggs. This explains why parasitism levels of H. armigera eggs on pigeonpea did not increase when intercropped with sorghum or after mass-releasing T. chilonis.     

Effectiveness of Trichogramma ostriniae and T. nubilale for controlling the European corn borer Ostrinia nubilalis in sweet corn

Seven field releases of Trichogramma ostriniae and T. nubilale (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) were made separately and in combination in a sweet corn field to compare the level of parasitism in sentinel eggs of the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae). The results indicate that the levels of egg parasitism among different release dates differed mainly because of changes in weather and plant architecture within the season. The level of egg parasitism by releasing T. ostriniae alone was found to be 15% higher than that by releasing T. nubilale alone, and 20% higher than by releasing the combination of the two species. Further analyses using the logistic regression model for independent and correlated data indicated T. ostriniae to be more efficient at discovering host egg masses and to have higher levels of egg parasitism than T. nubilale. Mutual interference between T. ostriniae and T. nubilale was the main factor for the lower level of egg parasitism when T. ostriniae and T. nubilale were released together. The results suggest that T. ostriniae is the better candidate for augmentative releases for control of the European corn borer, and the two species should not be released into a corn field at the same time.     

玉米螟赤眼蜂的寄生卵块在玉米上的田间分布型

玉米螟赤眼蜂是松辽平原玉米带寄生亚洲玉米螟卵的优势种。通过几年来的田间释放结果,取得优异的成效。通过对它在玉米田间的分布型研究,揭示了它在玉米田间第一代螟卵发生期间的分布规律,为以疏松的寄生卵块集团形式呈聚集分布;集团内寄生卵块的分布是随机的,无论在高密度时,还是在一般密度条件下,均为聚集分布型;它不受风向的影响。这一研究结果为它的田间释放和应用技术提供重要的科学依据。     

Biological characteristics of three Trichogramma species on the eggs of diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella L.)

In this study, parasitism rate, development, emergence rate, sex ratio and adult longevity of Trichogramma brassicae, Trichogramma pintoi and Trichogramma embryophagum were investigated on eggs of diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (Lep. Plutellidae) under controlled conditions. At the beginning of the experiments, 50 eggs of P. xylostella were exposed to parasitism of female wasps of different Trichogramma species. The eggs were replaced daily for three days and exposed eggs were kept in discrete glass vials. According to the obtained results, parasitism rates of T. brassicae, T. pintoi and T. embryophagum were 79.10, 93.90 and 86.10%, respectively. The adult emergence rates showed significant differences among various parasitoid species and were 93.72, 88.16 and 89.93% for T. brassicae, T. pintoi and T. embryophagum, respectively. No significant variations were observed among sex ratio values of the three parasitoid species. Consequently, results of present study suggested that T. pintoi could be more efficient for biocontrol of P. xylostella.
