作物多样性对大豆蚜的控蚜效应

【目的】研究大豆蚜发生为害及大豆与多种作物间邻作种植对大豆蚜的控制作用,为大豆蚜的可持续综合治理提供理论依据。【方法】采用系统调查的方法,研究大豆蚜和天敌田间种群动态;通过田间罩笼、人工接蚜和释放天敌的方法,研究捕食性天敌对大豆蚜种群的控制作用;在佳木斯地区进行大豆与早熟马铃薯间作,牡丹江地区进行黄瓜-大豆-玉米、甜葫芦-大豆-玉米、烟草-大豆-香瓜、甜菜-大豆-玉米等多作物带状穿插种植模式,以单作大豆田为对照,对不同种植模式的大豆田大豆蚜与天敌进行调查,研究作物多样性对大豆蚜的控制作用。【结果】2009年6月中下旬大豆蚜开始侵入大豆田,3~5周后田间有蚜株率达到100%,大豆蚜种群发生高峰期在7月下旬至8月上旬,9月上旬在田间逐渐消失。草蛉、瓢虫和寄生蜂等为蚜虫天敌优势种;按大豆蚜与天敌数量之比700︰1,释放异色瓢虫和叶色草蛉成虫7 d后,蚜虫种群减退率分别为54.78%和78.79%;大豆与早熟马铃薯间作,在大豆蚜种群迅速增长期早熟马铃薯收获(7月20日)后第5天,豆田蚜虫天敌总数是收获前的2.6倍,与同期单作大豆田相比,间作田大豆蚜种群数量降低了51.3%。大豆与甜葫芦、香瓜、烟草和玉米等作物进行多样性间作种植,在大豆蚜田间发生高峰期,单作豆田益害比为1︰65.2,多样性种植区的大豆田益害比为1︰26~1︰42,与单作大豆田相比,间作田大豆蚜种群数量降低40.7%~83.5%。【结论】2009年大豆蚜的种群高峰期为8月3日,田间的天敌优势种类为草蛉、瓢虫和寄生蜂。早熟马铃薯与大豆间作,在大豆蚜种群迅速增长期间收获早熟马铃薯,大量蚜虫天敌转移至间作的大豆田,从而形成对大豆蚜的控制。大豆与其它经济作物间邻作,大豆田天敌昆虫与蚜虫的益害比明显提高,表明利用农田作物多样性能充分发挥自然天敌的生物控害作用。     

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。     

印度小裂绵蚜在土壤中的垂直分布及其种群消长

【目的】印度小裂绵蚜Schizoneurella indica Hille Ris Lambers是在云南昭通苹果上发现的一种新害虫,发生普遍且严重。研究印度小裂绵蚜种群在土壤中的垂直分布及其消长动态是为了掌握其发生与危害特点。【方法】2002—2006年,我们采用盆栽和田间调查的方法对印度小裂绵蚜在土壤中的垂直分布和种群消长开展了研究。【结果】印度小裂绵蚜田间种群数量高峰期主要集中发生在9—12月,5—7月份为其田间种群快速增长期,种群增长率可达200%~273%。印度小裂绵蚜无翅蚜种群在0~30 cm的土壤范围内占总虫量的49.0%,30~60 cm的占27.0%,>60 cm的占24.0%。无翅蚜的各虫龄全年均有发生,冬季以第4龄若虫和无翅成虫为主。有翅蚜的发生全年只有1个时期,为11月上旬至12月下旬。【结论】印度小裂绵蚜田间种群数量全年发生1个高峰期,主要集中在0~30 cm的土壤范围内,随着土壤深度的增加,印度小裂绵蚜种群数量亦逐渐下降。田间有翅蚜虫量极少,较难观察到。     

沈阳地区吸虫塔监测大豆蚜迁飞动态及其与气象因子关系的分析

【目的】明确沈阳地区吸虫塔对大豆蚜Aphis glycines(Matsumura)迁飞活动的监测效果以及对其有显著影响的气象因素,为大豆蚜防控提供预警信息。【方法】2009年至2014年采用吸虫塔(Suction trap)对大豆蚜的迁飞活动进行自动、实时监测。结合当年田间大豆蚜动态调查,分析吸虫塔诱捕量与田间蚜量的相关性;采用逐步回归分析研究了吸虫塔诱捕量与气象因素的关系。【结果】监测及分析结果表明,吸虫塔诱捕量与田间大豆蚜量之间存在显著的相关性。吸虫塔诱捕的始见期和首次高峰期均早于田间发生的大豆蚜始见期和盛发期,吸虫塔的监测结果对田间蚜虫的发生可以起到预警的作用。诱捕量与气象因子的逐年回归模型分析结果显示,温度和降水量是影响大豆蚜有翅蚜迁飞的重要气象因素;总回归模型显示,试验期间,吸虫塔当年度诱捕量与前一年度冬季极端最低温、4—6月均温、6—7月最低温、9月均温具有正相关同步协同作用,而与6—7月降雨量和9月雨日具有负相关反向抑制作用。【结论】吸虫塔监测结果比较清晰的展示了大豆蚜的迁飞习性,很好的拟合了当年田间大豆蚜的种群动态。结合气象因子和诱捕量的预测模型研究,为吸虫塔及时准确的发挥预警功能提供必要的理论指导和实践依据。     

吸虫塔对麦长管蚜迁飞监测的影响因素分析

【目的】为了明确吸虫塔对麦长管蚜Sitobion avenae(Fabricius)迁飞活动监测效果的影响因素。【方法】采用回归分析和通径分析等方法,分析田间麦长管蚜数量与吸虫塔吸捕量的相关性,分析不同气象因素对吸虫塔中麦蚜吸捕数量的影响程度。【结果】结果显示,吸虫塔的有翅蚜吸捕量与田间麦长管蚜种群密度及有翅蚜数量存在显著的相关性,即田间麦长管蚜有翅成蚜数量对吸虫塔的吸捕量具有直接影响,而吸虫塔中麦长管蚜的吸捕量也直接反映田间有翅成蚜及种群动态的实际情况。另外,在廊坊地区,吸虫塔初期监测到的有翅麦长管蚜要比小麦田间发生的早几天。通过对吸虫塔中麦长管蚜有翅成蚜吸捕量与气象因素灰色关联度分析的结果表明,降雨天气对麦长管蚜的迁飞和种群动态具有突出的影响作用,可以造成麦长管蚜有翅成蚜迁入的"突增"和种群的"骤降";同时温度和湿度是两个影响麦长管蚜迁飞的重要因素;在麦长管蚜的迁入初期,温度对其迁飞影响最大;在大风天气,风速也会对麦长管蚜的迁入或飞翔活动产生较大影响。【结论】田间麦长管蚜发生数量与吸虫塔的吸捕量存在正相关;降雨、温度和风速是影响麦长管蚜迁飞活动的主要气象因素。

【目的】大豆蚜Aphis glycines(Matsumura)是大豆上最重要的害虫之一。传统控制大豆蚜虫仍然以达到防治指标时大量喷洒化学药剂为主,危害人畜和环境安全。只有在大豆蚜发生初期进行有效防控,使其田间种群不能及时顺利的建立,从而实现无公害绿色防控。【方法】对筛选出的3种内吸式杀虫剂按不同浓度拌种包衣进行大田小区试验,调查分析包衣处理对大豆蚜、天敌以及大豆田其他害虫的影响和控制作用,同时对包衣处理后的大豆安全性、产量和品质进行评估。【结果】药剂拌种包衣处理能够显著压低苗期大豆蚜虫口基数,2014年对照区与处理区蚜量最高峰值比值最大达到448.15;同时对苗期大豆田间的双斑萤叶甲Monolepta hieroglyphica(Motschulsky)有很好的控制作用,处理区与对照区的受害株率差异极显著;并且保护了自然天敌种群;药剂拌种包衣处理在显著增产的同时还有效提升了大豆品质;经权威检测,收获后的籽粒在检出限内无药剂残留。【结论】药剂拌种包衣处理能有效控制苗期大豆蚜,不杀伤天敌,安全、无毒、无残留,而且增产显著,是比较理想的轻简无公害防控手段。     

大豆蚜自然天敌种群动态及其控蚜作用研究

2008-2010年间,分别在辽东山区和辽西半干旱丘陵地区设置试验田,采用系统调查的方法,对大豆蚜Aphis glycines Matsumura自然天敌种群动态及控蚜作用进行研究。共鉴定辽宁地区大豆蚜天敌7目、16科、44种,其中优势天敌异色瓢虫Leis axyridis(Pallas)居首位。田间试验结果表明,大豆蚜天敌田间消长表现连续6个阶段,即初见期、波动期、上升期、盛期、下降期和消退期;田间3年平均大豆蚜数量与天敌(天敌单位)总体呈极显著的相关关系,各年度百株蚜量与天敌单位也均呈极显著相关关系。辽东地区天敌跟随紧密并随蚜虫数量变化波动,具有明显的自然控蚜作用。其中,7月11-21日天敌发生盛期与蚜虫高峰期吻合,蚜虫急剧下降;7月下旬后,受高温、多雨、蚜霉菌作用、植株老化等影响,蚜虫种群逐步下降、消退,天敌也陆续迁出豆田。辽西地区天敌迁入豆田比蚜虫晚10～15d,对前期蚜虫控制弱,且天敌峰期滞后蚜虫5d左右,一般年份蚜虫发生较重。

Soybean plant stage and population growth of soybean aphid

The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura, is a newly invasive species of aphid in North America. Previous studies disagree as to whether soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., plant stage has an impact on aphid intrinsic rate of increase. Therefore, the growth rate of soybean aphids on soybean plants of different stages was examined at two different scales in the field. A planting date experiment was used to measure the population growth of soybean aphids on plants of different stages. Clip-cages were used to measure life history characteristics of individual aphids on plants of different stages. No differences were found in the population growth or dynamics of soybean aphids in the planting date experiment. The life history characteristics of individual aphids also showed no significant difference when feeding on different growth stages of soybean plants. The impact of these findings on soybean aphid management is discussed and the possible reasons why the results differ from previous estimates of the aphid growth-plant stage relationship are considered.     

Methyl salicylate attracts natural enemies and reduces populations of soybean aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in soybean agroecosystems

Methyl salicylate, an herbivore-induced plant volatile, has been shown to attract natural enemies and affect herbivore behavior. In this study, methyl salicylate was examined for its attractiveness to natural enemies of the soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), and for its direct effects on soybean aphid population growth rates. Methyl salicylate lures were deployed in plots within organic soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] fields. Sticky card traps adjacent to and 1.5 m from the lure measured the relative abundance of natural enemies, and soybean aphid populations were monitored within treated and untreated plots. In addition, exclusion cage studies were conducted to determine methyl salicylate's effect on soybean aphid population growth rates in the absence of natural enemies. Significantly greater numbers of syrphid flies (Diptera: Syrphidae) and green lacewings (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) were caught on traps adjacent to the methyl salicylate lure, but no differences in abundance were found at traps 1.5 m from the lure. Furthermore, abundance of soybean aphids was significantly lower in methyl salicylate-treated plots. In exclusion cage studies, soybean aphid numbers were significantly reduced on treated soybean plants when all plants were open to natural enemies. When plants were caged, however, soybean aphid numbers and population growth rates did not differ between treated and untreated plants suggesting no effect of methyl salicylate on soybean aphid reproduction and implicating the role of natural enemies in depressing aphid populations. Although aphid populations were reduced locally around methyl salicylate lures, larger scale studies are needed to assess the technology at the whole-field scale.     

What is the economic threshold of soybean aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in enemy-free space?

Soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is a serious pest of soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., in the North Central United States. Current management recommendations rely on the application of insecticides based on an economic threshold (ET) of 250 aphids per plant. Natural enemies are important in slowing the increase of aphid populations and can prevent them from reaching levels that can cause economic losses. However, biological control of A. glycines is inconsistent and can be affected negatively by the intensity of agricultural activity. We measured the impact of a natural-enemy-free environment on the capacity of the current ET to limit yield loss. In 2008 and 2009, caged microplots were assigned to one of three treatments: plants kept aphid-free (referred to as the control), plants that experienced a population of 250 aphids per plant (integrated pest management [IPM]), and plants that experienced unlimited aphid population growth (unlimited). The population growth rate of aphids in the unlimited treatment for the 10 d after the application of insecticides to the IPM treatment was calculated using linear regression. The linear equation was solved to determine the mean number of days between the ET and the EIL for an aphid population in absence of predators. The number of days was determined to be 6.97 +/- 1.11 d. The 2-yr average yield for the IPM treatment was 99.93% of the control treatment. Our study suggests the current soybean aphid ET of 250 aphids per plant can effectively protect yield even if the impact of natural enemies is reduced.     

The influence of Lasius neoniger (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) on population growth and biomass of Aphis glycines (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in soybeans

In the United States, the soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), are often tended by the aphid-tending ant, Lasius neoniger Emery (Hymenoptera: Formicidae). In this study, we examined the effects of tending by ants on the density and biomass of soybean aphids on soybeans in Kentucky. We performed cage studies that limited access by ants and/or natural enemies. We used a split-plot design with natural enemy access as the main plot and ant attendance as the sub plot. We found that natural enemy access negatively affected aphid population density in the presence of tending ants, seen as a three- to four-fold increase in aphid density when natural enemies were excluded. In addition, we found that ant tending positively affected aphid biomass, both when natural enemies were given access to aphids or when natural enemies were excluded, seen by a two-fold increase in aphid biomass when ants tended aphids, both in the presence or absence of natural enemies. Biomass accumulation is seen as an important measurement for assessing aphid performance, and we argue that aphid-tending by ants can have an influence on natural field populations of soybean aphids. Agronomic practices that affect ant abundance in soybeans may influence the performance and hence pest outbreaks for this economically important pest.     

Population dynamics of soybean aphid and biotic mortality at the edge of its range

The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura, was introduced to north central North America from Asia in 2000, and it has become a major pest of soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr. Understanding how natural enemies impact aphid populations in the field is an important component in developing a comprehensive management plan. We examined the impact of naturally occurring predators in the field by using exclusion cages during July-August 2004 and 2005. Field cages of different mesh diameters were used to exclude different sizes of natural enemies from aphid-infested plots. Plots were surveyed twice weekly for A. glycines and natural enemies. Densities were recorded. Cage effects on mean temperature and soybean growth were found to be insignificant. Significant differences in aphid density were found between treatments in both years of the study (2004 and 2005); however, aphid densities between years were highly variable. Orius insidiosus (Say) was the most commonly occurring predator in the field. Other natural enemies were present in both years but not in high numbers. Parasitoids were present in both years, but their numbers did not suppress aphid densities. Treatment differences within years were related to the abundance of natural enemies. The large differences in aphid abundance between years were associated with the higher number of O. insidiosus found in the field in 2005 (416 total O. insidiosus) than in 2004 (149 total O. insidiosus). This study suggests that naturally occurring predators, primarily O. insidiosus, can have a large impact on A. glycines populations when predator populations are established before initial A. glycines colonization.     

自然天敌对苗蚜和伏蚜控制作用的定量分析

【目的】为了合理利用自然天敌,定量评价棉田自然天敌对苗蚜和伏蚜的控制作用。【方法】采用接虫罩笼法结合系统调查。【结果】发现苗蚜的主要自然天敌是龟纹瓢虫Propylaea japonica Thunberg和异色瓢虫Harmonia axyridis Pallas,大部分时间能够有效的控制苗蚜种群在防治指标以下,控害指数高达91%;伏蚜主要自然天敌是蜘蛛、草蛉和龟纹瓢虫,由于其种群数量太少,益害比低,对伏蚜控害指数始终低于20%,无法有效的控制伏蚜种群。【结论】结果提示,应根据苗蚜和伏蚜自然天敌控制作用不同,制定合理的保护利用自然天敌的策略。     

Soybean cyst nematode effects on soybean aphid preference and performance in the laboratory

Herbivores on plants frequently interact via shared resources. Studies that have examined performance of herbivores in the presence of other herbivores, however, have often focused on above-ground feeding guilds and relatively less research has examined interactions between below- and above-ground consumers. We examine how soybean aphid, Aphis glycines (Matsumura) an above-ground phloem-feeding herbivore, interacts with a below-ground plant parasite, soybean cyst nematode, Heterodera glycines (Ichinohe) through their shared host plant, soybean (Glycine max L). Laboratory experiments evaluated the preference of alate (flight-capable) soybean aphids toward plants either infected with soybean cyst nematode or uninfected controls in a simple choice arena. Alate soybean aphids preferred uninfected soybean over soybean cyst nematode-infected plants: 48 h after the releases of alate aphids in the center of the arena, 67% more aphids were found on control soybean compared with nematode infected plants. No-choice feeding assays were also conducted using clip cages and apterous (flight-incapable) aphids to investigate effect of soybean cyst nematode infection of soybean on aphid performance. These studies had mixed results: in one set of experiments overall aphid population growth at 7 d was not statistically different between control and soybean cyst nematode-infected plants. A different experiment using a life-table analysis found that apterous aphids feeding on soybean cyst nematode-infected plants had significantly greater finite rate of increase (λ), intrinsic rate of increase (r(m)), and net reproductive rate (R(o)) compared with aphids reared on uninfected (control) soybean plants. We conclude that the below-ground herbivore, soybean cyst nematode, primarily influences soybean aphid behavior rather than performance.     

Preceding crop affects soybean aphid abundance and predator–prey dynamics in soybean

Crop rotations alter the soil environment and physiology of the subsequent crop in ways that may affect the abundance of herbivores and their natural enemies. Soybean aphids are a consistent pest of soybean throughout North America, but little work has focused on how preceding crops may affect pest–predator dynamics. In a replicated experiment over three years, we examined how two preceding crops (spring wheat or an oat/pea mixture) affected seasonal soybean aphid pressure and the ratio of aphids to their predator community. Peak aphid populations were reduced by 40% and 75% in years 1 and 2 by planting spring wheat before soybeans (relative to the oat–pea mixture). Aphid densities were unaffected by preceding crop in the third year of study (aphids were at threshold in this year). Predators responded positively to aphid population increases and were unaffected by preceding crops. Additional research on how crop rotations can be used as a tool to manage soybean aphids warrants further attention.
