播期对大豆蚜及其天敌种群动态的影响

【目的】研究大豆播期对大豆蚜Aphis glycines Matsumura及其天敌的影响。【方法】试验在2012年、2013年进行,设置了3个大豆播期处理。每周调查播期处理田大豆蚜种群及天敌种类和数量,分析大豆蚜种群数量、种群增长率的时序动态、大豆蚜和天敌的关联度。【结果】不同播期条件下大豆蚜有翅蚜及无翅蚜的种群动态趋势基本一致,有翅蚜蚜量高峰期要早于无翅蚜1周。处理间的大豆蚜田间始见期与终见期随着播期推后而延迟,大豆蚜在田间扩散和消退的时期也随着大豆播期延后。晚播的两个处理高峰期蚜量多于或等于正常播期处理的蚜量。大豆蚜与天敌关联度随着播期的推后而变高。在调查的7种天敌中大豆蚜与异色瓢虫的关联度最高,草蛉、小花蝽和蚜茧蜂也表现较高的关联度。【结论】播期会显著影响大豆蚜的田间始见期和终见期,随着播期的推迟大豆蚜种群高峰期蚜量以及大豆蚜与天敌的关联度都会提高。

黑龙江大豆蚜种群动态及田间空间分布研究

2007-2009年对黑龙江大豆蚜田间种群动态的调查结果表明,6月中旬大豆蚜Aphis glycines Matsumura开始在田间出现,3～5周后田间有蚜株率达到100%。7月未至8月初蚜量达到高峰期,9月中下旬在田间逐渐消失。大豆蚜有翅蚜与无翅蚜的发生动态基本一致,有翅蚜高峰期有时会稍有提前。2007年大豆蚜发生时期早、基数大、增长周期长导致高峰期蚜量显著高于2008年和2009年。大豆蚜田间分布聚集度指标I﹥0、m*/m﹥1、Ca﹥0、C﹥1,整个生长季种群都表现为聚集分布。建立的Iwao回归关系方程(m*=7.14758+1.11200m)表明种群分布的基本成分为个体群,个体之间表现为相互吸引。     

室内人工诱导大豆蚜产生有性世代的研究

【目的】大豆蚜Aphis glycines(Matsumura)是大豆上最重要的害虫之一,短暂的有性阶段是蚜虫种群基因交流的关键环节。通过探索影响大豆蚜产生有性世代的室内人工诱导条件,对研究种群遗传和生态适应机制具有重要意义。【方法】采用豆苗罩笼培养法,在实验室条件下用一定的光温组合处理,测定了处理1代和连续处理3代的大豆蚜各蚜型产生的比率,并且分析了各相关因素的影响。【结果】本试验成功诱导大豆蚜产生无翅孤雌蚜、有翅孤雌蚜、有翅产雄性母和有翅雄性蚜。结果表明,人工诱导雄性母产生的最适条件为15℃,10L︰14D处理3代,雄性蚜产生的最适条件为12℃,10L︰14D处理3代,而15℃,8L︰16D条件下大豆蚜翅型分化率最高。对各相关因子进行方差分析结果表明,温度与光周期互作对有性世代的产生影响最为显著,其次是温度、诱导日龄的单独作用,诱导世代只有和光温条件互作才有显著影响。【结论】在特定的光周期内,温度是大豆蚜有性世代产生的重要因素,同时光温条件组合对此有一定的累积效应,表现为光、温、诱导世代三者交互对有性世代的产生影响显著。     

棉花型和瓜型棉蚜产生有性世代能力的分化

为了明确寄主专化性是否会影响棉蚜的繁殖策略或生活史对策,采用低温和短光照组合（18℃,L∶D=8∶16）分别对棉花型和瓜型棉蚜进行有性世代的诱导,比较两寄主专化型棉蚜产生有翅蚜、雄性母、雌性母及无翅孤雌蚜的能力。结果表明：两寄主专化型棉蚜在产生有性世代能力上存在显著差异,表现为棉花型棉蚜在诱导后代中产生有翅蚜、雄性母和雌性母的比率显著高于瓜型棉蚜,并且雌、雄性母产生的时间明显早于瓜型棉蚜。瓜型棉蚜在诱导条件下产生无翅孤雌蚜的比率显著高于棉花型棉蚜,并且发现有不产生有性世代的营专性孤雌生殖个体,而在棉花型棉蚜中没有发现。产生性母蚜的棉花型和瓜型棉蚜均可同时产生孤雌胎生后代。寄主型与诱导时间长短对棉蚜有性世代的产生存在交互作用。采集于田间棉花和黄瓜上的棉蚜,也表现为棉花上的易产生有性世代,在诱导的第2代中产生性母蚜的比率显著高于黄瓜上的棉蚜,并且性母蚜比率在诱导的第2代与第3代间无显著差异; 但黄瓜上的棉蚜性母蚜产生比率第3代显著高于第2代。由此推测,棉蚜寄主专化性的形成与生活史特性的分化有关。     

桃蚜对报警信息素和烟草挥发物的电生理和行为反应

【目的】探究烟草挥发物和蚜虫报警信息素对桃蚜Myzuspersicae行为的影响,以期为桃蚜的化学生态防治提供理论依据。【方法】采用触角电位技术(EAG)测定了有翅蚜与无翅蚜对蚜虫报警信息素(E)-β-法尼烯与4种烟草挥发物(6-甲基-5-庚烯-2-酮、壬醛、反-β-罗勒烯、乙酸正丁酯)的电生理反应,并利用Y型嗅觉仪测定了桃蚜对这些化合物的行为反应。【结果】蚜虫报警信息素和4种烟草挥发物均能引起有翅蚜和无翅蚜的触角电位反应,有翅蚜的嗅觉感器对报警信息素更为敏感,而无翅蚜对烟草挥发物乙酸正丁酯和反-β-罗勒烯更为敏感。在1、10和100 ng 3个测试剂量范围内,报警信息素在剂量为10 ng和100 ng时对有翅蚜和无翅蚜的驱避作用显著,而1 ng时仅对无翅蚜有驱避作用。烟草挥发物乙酸正丁酯、6-甲基-5-庚烯-2-酮和反-β-罗勒烯在剂量为100 ng时,对无翅蚜和有翅蚜具有引诱作用;当剂量10 ng时,乙酸正丁酯对有翅蚜和无翅蚜均有引诱作用,6-甲基-5-庚烯-2-酮仅对无翅蚜有引诱作用。【结论】报警信息素对无翅蚜的驱避作用强于有翅蚜,烟草挥发物组分6-甲基-5-庚烯-2-酮、乙酸正丁酯、反-β-罗勒烯对桃蚜的无翅蚜和有翅蚜均具有引诱作用。

苹果绵蚜生活史与防治研究

1.苹果绵蚜在青岛地区1年中最高繁殖代数为17代,平均8—9代。 2.绵蚜1年中繁殖率从6月中旬至7月中旬(22—25℃)为最高,当平均气温连续多日高达26℃以上时其繁殖率显著下降。生长季节一般低温对绵蚜总繁殖率影响不大。 3.夏季有翅蚜发生时期为5月下旬至6月下旬,为数较少,出现时期也很零散,可胎生无翅胎生绵蚜与雌雄性蚜。秋季有翅蚜自8月底开始发生,盛期在9月中旬至10月中旬,10月中旬以后即极少发生,其后代为雌雄性蚜。 4.有翅蚜无口吻,约于7—9日内脱皮4次即行交尾,雌蚜仅产卵1粒,未经交配者不产卵。性蚜自然死亡率很高(平均81.2％),在田间尚未发现有越冬卵。 5.棉蚜主要越冬场所均在其原寄生部位,如伤口、裂缝内与根部不定芽上。越冬虫态以Ⅰ、Ⅱ龄绵蚜为主。 6.绵蚜之迁移以Ⅰ龄若虫为主,5月下旬至7月中旬为主要迁移为害时期。 7.绵蚜可在苹果的萼洼内寄生为害。 8.除西洋苹果、山荆子、花红与海棠外,尚未发现绵蚜有其他寄主。 9.20倍松脂合剂加0.02％γ可湿性666或5％—6％蒽油乳剂,为防治越冬绵蚜的有效药剂。生长季节可用666乳剂或可湿性666防治。 10.666酸霉味对果实品质能引起不良影响,经初步试验其施用时期最晚不应迟于采收前1个半月至2个月。     

有翅型和无翅型大豆蚜卵巢和胚胎发育的差异

【目的】比较大豆蚜Aphis glycines有翅型和无翅型个体的卵巢发育,为从生理生化角度研究蚜虫翅型分化发生的繁殖适应性提供依据。【方法】在卵巢形态显微镜观察基础上,比较有翅型和无翅型大豆蚜卵巢小管数量、胚胎总数量、成熟胚胎数量以及卵巢小管中最大胚胎体积及其发育速率。【结果】有翅型和无翅型大豆蚜的3龄和4龄若蚜以及成蚜均有2个卵巢/雌,大多数蚜虫每个卵巢包含4条卵巢小管,可见一个卵巢包含5条卵巢小管的现象。有翅型和无翅型个体卵巢中胚胎总数量和成熟胚胎数量以及最大胚胎体积随发育时间增加均显著增大,但有翅型个体胚胎总数量和成熟胚胎数量以及最大胚胎体积均显著小于同一发育阶段无翅型个体。有翅型和无翅型的3龄和4龄若蚜以及成蚜卵巢中胚胎总数量与后足胫节长度均呈显著正相关关系。有翅型和无翅型大豆蚜卵巢小管中最大胚胎体积随发育时间均呈指数增长,但有翅型个体最大胚胎体积显著小于无翅型个体。【结论】有翅型大豆蚜相比于无翅型个体存在卵巢发育延迟现象,卵巢发育程度的差异可能与翅的发育相关。     

Precocene II-induced alate production in isolated and crowded alate and apterous virginoparae of the aphid, Macrosiphum euphorbiae

Precocene II was applied at doses ranging from 0.05 to 0.70 μg per individual to newly moulted adult alate and apterous virginoparae of Macrosiphum euphorbiae kept isolated or in groups of 10 per plant, under an 18L:6D photoperiodic regime. While isolated controls of both morphs produced exclusively apterous progeny, alatae virginoparae were produced in generally dose-dependent proportions by precocene-treated individuals. Grouped controls of both morphs produced alatiform progeny as expected, but in precocene—treated groups, the proportions of alate progeny generally increased as a function of dose. The overall proportions of alate offspring produced, and numbers of days after treatment when morph production was affected, were generally greater for alatae than for apterae, indicating a greater sensitivity to precocene in alatae. However during the first few days after treatment, the alatizing effect of precocene was stronger for apterae, suggesting that the first embryos produced by alatae were irreversibly determined as apterae.In an experiment where isolated alatae and apterae received 0.5 μg of precocene II at different ages ranging from 1 to 13 days after the adult moult, the alatizing effect of the compound, measured by the persistence of alate production, varied with age and morph. While in alatae, the persistence decreased more or less regularly with age, in apterae it initially increased to a maximum in the middle of reproductive life, and subsequently decreased. The results provide support for the hypothesis that juvenile hormone is involved in regulating alary dimorphism in M. euphorbiae.     

The effect of crowding on alate production and weight of apterous exules of the apple-grass aphid, Rhopalosiphum insertum

Offspring of Rhopalosiphum insertum are most sensitive to crowding immediately before and after birth. Crowding throughout the nymphal and adult life of the mothers irreversibly determines most offspring as alatae whether the offspring are crowded or not. Offspring of mothers having less exposure to crowding require additional stimuli after birth. The possible evolutionary advantages of such a system are discussed. Hormonal control of alary polymorphism is implicated. The weight of apterae declined with increased crowding. This is correlated with an increase in alate production, and may thus serve to limit the population increase to a level tolerable by the plant without killing it.     

Influence of diet composition and crowding on wing production by the aphid Myzus persicae

Two factors have been shown to affect alata-production in a Californian strain of Myzus persicae. Contact between adult apterous females increases the proportion of alatae in their progenies as, to a lesser extent, does contact between the larvae themselves. In the absence of behavioural interactions between the aphids, the relative proportions of apterae and alatae can be influenced by the diet the mothers and their larvae receive. By suitable dietary adjustments, it is therefore possible to increase or decrease the proportions of alatae among the progeny of isolated as well as of grouped aphids. In neither case is it necessary to isolate the larvae directly after their birth in order to observe the influence of diet composition on their wing dimorphism.     

Alata-production by an aphid: The “interval timer” concept and maternal age effects

Throughout their lives alate Acyrthosiphon pisum aphids remained unable to produce more alatae in response to crowding. Similarly, the first-born progeny of most alatae were likewise unable to respond to crowding. In contrast, the first-born progeny of apterae responded exceptionally strongly to the crowding stimulus. Later-born progeny of both morphs responded similarly. These data are inconsistent with Lees' theory of “interval timers” since ability to produce alatae did not return simultaneously in all lines founded by alatae. The theory of interval timers must be either replaced or modified to take into account differences related to maternal age.     

Observations on the morphs of Macrosiphum avenae and Metopolophium dirhodum on cereals during the summer and autumn

From June to early August 1970, populations of Macrosiphum avenae and Metopolophium dirhodum on marked tillers of field barley were compared with the numbers of alatae trapped at crop height and at 12.2 m. There were always more M. dirhodum than M. avenae on the tillers. Only apterae were produced until mid-June when both alatae and apterae occurred; after mid-July only alate M. avenae were found. Until mid-June most of the flying alatae were caught at 12.2 m as they migrated from spring hosts to cereals. Thereafter, more alate M. avenae were trapped at 12.2 m than at crop level, whereas numbers of alate M. dirhodum were usually comparable at both heights. Although crop and flying populations occasionally showed temporal similarities, insufficient is known about their field distribution and the factors affecting their alate production and flight activity to interpret this relationship. In the autumn, two consecutive reproductive phases of M. dirhodum occurred on winter wheat grown in pots outdoors. Initially, apterous virginoparae and alatae, probably sexuparae, were produced, whereas only alate males appeared during the second phase. In contrast, M. avenae deposited mainly apterous virginoparae although some oviparae developed in October to lay scattered, probably infertile eggs on the tillers.     

Maternal age as a source of variation in the ability of an aphid to produce dispersing forms

Apterous parthenogentic females of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris ), begin to produce alate offspring soon after they have been subjected to crowding. Females which were born early in their own parent's reproductive period respond most strongly to crowding, producing much larger numbers of alatae than their late-born sisters. In contrast, the early-born daughters of most alate females do not produce winged offspring after being crowded. Some of their later-born sisters may produce a few winged individuals, resembling in this respect the late-born daughters of the apterous females. Control of the production of alatae thus begins in the grandparental generation. Risk-spreading by means of differential dispersal becomes a less uncertain venture when local populations can modify their responses to environmental changes by utilizing past as well as present signals from their surroundings.     

Maternal age as a source of variation in the ability of an aphid to produce dispersing forms

Summary Apterous parthenogentic females of the pea aphid,Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris), begin to produce alate offspring soon after they have been subjected to crowding. Females which were born early in their own parent’s reproductive period respond most strongly to crowding, producing much larger numbers of alatae than their late-born sisters. In contrast, the early-born daughters of most alate females do not produce winged offspring after being crowded. Some of their later-born sisters may produce a few winged individuals, resembling in this respect the late-born daughters of the apterous females. Control of the production of alatae thus begins in the grandparental generation. Risk-spreading by means of differential dispersal becomes a less uncertain venture when local populations can modify their responses to environmental changes by utilizing past as well as present signals from their surroundings.     

The rôle of the corpus allatum in prenatal wing determination in Megoura viciae

Crowding stimulates alatae production by the apterous morph of Megoura viciae, but it has no effect on the volume and ultrastructure of the maternal corpus allatum. In adult apterae the corpus allatum appears to be inactive. It is therefore considered that the maternal corpus allatum is not involved in the prenatal control of alary polymorphism in this aphid.     

Reproductive strategy of winged and wingless morphs of the aphids Sitobion avenae and Metopolophium dirhodum

The reproduction of apterous and alate morphs of the aphids Sitobion avenae and Metopolophium dirhodum is compared on the basis of fecundity in 5- and 10-day periods of adult life. Apterae of both species are consistently more fecund than alatae of comparable weight, producing about three more nymphs on average in any 5-day period. The reproductive differences are related to the number and quality of embryos at eclosion and to ovulation rates, both of which in turn appear to be linked to wing-muscle maintenance. These relationships between weight, embryos and reproduction may be used to predict a newly moulted adult aphid's fecundity, a method which may facilitate the assessment of resistance to aphids in new cereal varieties, by obviating lengthy recording of reproduction. The strategies by which alatae of these and other aphid species minimize the difference between their fecundity and that of apterae are discussed.     

Effects of maternal diet on offspring fitness in the bird cherry‐oat aphid

1. Maternal and offspring diet effects on life‐history traits of the bird cherry‐oat aphid Rhopalosiphum padi were tested on three wheat varieties. Using nine reciprocal combinations of wheat varieties, the effects of previous experience (maternal diet effect) on the aphid's response to resistant and susceptible varieties (offspring diet effect) were tested. Batis was susceptible, and Xiaoyan22 and Ww2730 were both resistant, but with different mechanisms. 2. Aphids produced the most alatae in the treatments with the most resistant maternal diet variety Xiaoyan22. The fecundity (F) and intrinsic rate of increase (r_m) of these alatae were at their greatest in the most resistant offspring diet variety, but these traits were not influenced in the apterae. 3. There were significant interactions in the alatae production and apterae life‐history traits, such as r_m, development time, weight gain, and mean relative growth rate, between the maternal and offspring diet varieties. The interactions in apterae responses between varieties, some of which were reciprocal, indicated phenotypic plasticity in these parthenogenetic aphids. 4. Rhopalosiphum padi produced more alatae on the most resistant variety; the alatae would disperse and were more fecund. The growth responses of the apterae showed phenotypic plasticity to the different combinations of maternal and offspring diet varieties. The phenotypic plasticity would allow R. padi to better utilise the variable environments represented by the small wheat plots of different varieties in China.
