美洲黑杨不同无性系对分月扇舟蛾幼虫的抗性及相关机理

为了选育出在生产上具有推广价值的美洲黑杨Populus deltoides优良抗虫品系,本研究以分月扇舟蛾Clostera anastomosis 3龄幼虫为材料,以I-72杨为对照评价和分析了18个美洲黑杨无性系在实验室条件（28±1℃,RH 70%,16L∶8D）下的抗虫性,通过选择性和非选择性取食实验筛选出了11个具有较强抗性的无性系; 测定了美洲黑杨主要营养物质和次生代谢物质含量,研究了不同无性系对分月扇舟蛾体内保护酶和消化酶活性及对该虫生长发育和食物利用的影响。结果表明：美洲黑杨不同无性系抗性的大小与它们叶片中总酚含量呈明显正相关趋势; 抗性水平不同的无性系对分月扇舟蛾幼虫的生长发育和食物利用有不同的影响,表现在幼虫体重、每日体重增加量、相对生长率、近似消化率、食物利用率和食物转化率等主要生长发育指标的变化上,同时对分月扇舟蛾幼虫取食量和排粪量亦有不同的影响。结果说明,分月扇舟蛾对次生代谢物质的反应更为敏感,抗性无性系对分月扇舟蛾幼虫体内SOD和CAT酶活性有明显的激活作用。     

虫害诱导黑杨对分月扇舟蛾生长发育的影响

在实验室条件下,通过人工饲养研究了虫害处理的69杨和895杨对分月扇舟蛾Clostera anastomosis幼虫、蛹及成虫的生长发育的影响。结果表明:虫害处理的叶片对分月扇舟蛾幼虫表现为驱避作用;取食虫害处理的叶片,使得幼虫的发育历期延长,死亡率增加,对食物的利用和转化效率下降;蛹重减轻,蛹期延长;成虫的羽化率降低,产卵量减少。说明昆虫取食危害能够诱导杨树对分月扇舟蛾产生抗虫性。     

转蜘蛛杀虫肽与Bt毒蛋白C肽基因小黑杨对杨扇舟蛾的抗性

为评价转蜘蛛杀虫肽与Bt毒蛋白C肽融合蛋白基因小黑杨对杨扇舟蛾Clostera anachoreta (Fabricius)的抗性,采用苗木套笼饲喂法和石蜡切片法,对取食转基因小黑杨的杨扇舟蛾幼虫的发育、死亡情况和中肠结构进行了研究。结果表明,杨扇舟蛾幼虫分别取食TT3（转基因无性系3）、TT1（转基因无性系1）和CK（非转基因对照）小黑杨后 总历期依次为35.63天、30.39天和28.74天,幼虫化蛹率依次为12.1%、29.3%和44.3%,平均蛹重依次为0.1077 g、0.1714 g和0.1893 g。转基因小黑杨能明显延长杨扇舟蛾幼虫的发育历期,降低化蛹率和蛹重。同时,转基因小黑杨有抑制幼虫蜕皮、增加其死亡率和致蛹畸形的作用,且能破坏幼虫中肠,使中肠细胞排列松散、肠腔食物减少、中肠变形,其破坏作用随时间延长而加剧。一般来讲,TT3对杨扇舟蛾的各种影响作用均大于TT1。

植物次生物质和杀虫剂对分月扇舟蛾谷胱甘肽S-转移酶的抑制作用

本论文采用分光光度计法研究了植物次生物质和杀虫剂对分月扇舟蛾Closteraanastomosis(L.)谷胱甘肽S-转移酶(GSTs)的体外抑制作用。结果表明各植物次生物质和杀虫剂对分月扇舟蛾GSTs活性的体外抑制作用存在差异。当植物次生物质和杀虫剂终浓度为8.34×10-5mol/L时,槲皮素和单宁酸对分月扇舟蛾GSTs活性抑制作用最强,分别为64.41%和58.61%;三唑磷、毒死蜱、辛硫磷、氟铃脲、氟虫腈和哒螨灵都有较强的抑制作用,对GSTs活性抑制率超过20%;氧化乐果、水胺硫磷、丙溴磷、马拉硫磷、灭多威、联苯菊酯、高效氯氰菊酯、甲氰菊酯、高效氯氟氰菊酯、吡虫啉和啶虫脒对分月扇舟蛾GSTs有中等抑制作用;其他杀虫剂对分月扇舟蛾GSTs有较弱(或没有)抑制作用。此外,在一定的浓度范围内,槲皮素、单宁酸和辛硫磷对分月扇舟蛾GSTs活性的抑制作用存在明显的剂量效应关系。槲皮素、单宁酸和辛硫磷对分月扇舟蛾GSTs的抑制中浓度分别为2.19×10-5,2.62×10-5,1.49×10-4mol/L。因此,此研究明确了槲皮素和单宁酸作为防治分月扇舟蛾的新型防治剂或增效剂具有很好的潜力。     

二点委夜蛾适应性与玉米苗营养物质和次生代谢物质含量的关系

【目的】二点委夜蛾Athetis lepigone是夏玉米Zea mays苗期的一种新发害虫。本研究旨在测定不同品种玉米苗对二点委夜蛾幼虫的生物学和营养效应,揭示其发生与玉米品种的关系。【方法】二点委夜蛾3,4和5龄幼虫分别饲喂3种普通玉米(鲁单9032、先玉335、郑单958)和1种甜玉米(超甜6)苗,测定幼虫鲜重、干重、存活率、相对取食速率(RCR)、相对生长速率(RGR)、近似消化率(AD)、食物转化率(ECD)和食物利用率(ECI),分析这些指标与玉米苗中营养物质、蜡质和次生物质含量之间的关系。【结果】不同龄期的二点委夜蛾幼虫取食玉米苗的生物学和营养指标有较大差异。4种玉米苗的营养物质、蜡质和次生物质含量有显著差异。3龄幼虫取食鲁单9032和超甜6时相对取食速率、相对生长速率和近似消化率均较高,其存活率、鲜重、干重、相对取食速率、食物转化率与玉米苗可溶性糖含量呈显著正相关;相对生长速率与玉米苗蛋白质含量和氨基酸含量均呈显著正相关;存活率和相对取食速率与玉米苗总酚含量呈显著负相关;食物转化率与玉米苗单宁含量呈显著负相关。4龄幼虫取食先玉335时鲜重和干重最低,取食超甜6时近似消化率最高,取食郑单958时食物利用率最高,其鲜重、干重、相对取食速率和相对生长速率与玉米苗总酚含量呈显著负相关。5龄幼虫取食鲁单9032和先玉335时鲜重、干重和食物转化率较高,取食郑单958和超甜6时相对取食速率和近似消化率最高,取食先玉335的食物利用率最高,其相对生长速率与玉米苗蛋白质、氨基酸含量显著正相关。【结论】随着幼虫龄期的增加,二点委夜蛾在玉米上的适应性提高;二点委夜蛾幼虫对玉米的适应性与玉米叶片中可溶性糖、蛋白质和氨基酸含量呈正相关,与总酚和单宁含量呈负相关。     

新烟碱类杀虫剂拌种对马铃薯甲虫幼虫食物利用和生长发育的影响

为研究马铃薯甲虫Leptinotarsa decemlineata（Say）幼虫取食新烟碱杀虫剂噻虫嗪和吡虫啉处理（有效成分18 g/100 kg种薯拌种）播种90 d后马铃薯叶片的消化吸收和生长发育情况,在室内采用重量法测定了幼虫取食量、体重增加量、食物利用率,近似消化率以及蛹重等营养指标。 结果表明：70%噻虫嗪种子处理可分散粉剂拌种后,马铃薯甲虫幼虫的取食量、体重增加量、食物利用率、食物转化率、近似消化率和相对生长率以及蛹重显著低于10%吡虫啉可湿性粉剂拌种和空白对照（P＜0.05）,发育历期显著长于10%吡虫啉可湿性粉剂拌种和空白对照（P＜0.05）;而10%吡虫啉可湿性粉剂拌种后,马铃薯甲虫幼虫的取食量和3～4龄期的体重增加量与空白对照差异显著（P＜0.05）,蛹重、1～2龄幼虫的体重增长量、食物利用率、食物转化率、近似消化率、相对生长率和生长发育历期与空白对照差异不显著（P＞0.05）。 说明70%噻虫嗪种子处理可分散粉剂拌种对马铃薯甲虫幼虫的取食有显著抑制作用,不能很好地满足其生长发育营养物质的需要,幼虫取食其叶片后,近似消化率和相对生长速率显著降低,生长发育历期显著延长。 这有利于减少当季世代数,降低危害。     

斑痣悬茧蜂寄生对甜菜夜蛾幼虫取食和食物利用的影响

为研究甜菜夜蛾Spodoptera exigua幼虫被斑痣悬茧蜂Meteorus pulchricornis寄生后的取食以及食物利用情况,在室内采用重量法测定了甜菜夜蛾4龄幼虫被寄生后取食量、体重增加量、营养指标的变化。结果表明：被寄生甜菜夜蛾幼虫的取食量、生长率和食物利用效率等明显受到抑制,幼虫被寄生后第3-6 d 取食量显著小于未被寄生幼虫,寄生后第4 d 的幼虫取食量只有正常幼虫的29.89%,第5 d只有48.69%。幼虫在寄生后的第3-5 d体重增加量显著小于未被寄生幼虫,分别为正常幼虫的21.51%,38.87%和14.42%,相对生长率则也显著低于后者。被寄生甜菜夜蛾幼虫的营养利用表现也明显不同于未被寄生幼虫,反映生长和代谢效率的食物利用率（ECI）和食物转化率（ECD）均显著降低,而反映吸收效率的近似消化率（AD）则提高。虽然在寄生后第4 d出现了相反的现象,其原因可能在于第4 d取食量明显减少,而体重仍在增加。本研究表明,斑痣悬茧蜂寄生明显抑制寄主甜菜夜蛾幼虫的取食、食物利用效率和生长。     

二种改进人工饲料对红脉穗螟生长发育和繁殖的影响

在温度(29±1)℃和相对湿度75%±5%条件下,研究了2种改进人工饲料和天然饲料椰子幼果对红脉穗螟Tirathaba rufivena Walker生长发育、繁殖力和营养的影响。结果表明:与天然饲料相比,用改进人工饲料饲养的红脉穗螟幼虫生长发育速度、幼虫存活率、蛹重及产卵量均提高;幼虫相对生长率(RGR)、食物利用率(ECI)及食物转化率(ECD)均显著提高,而相对取食量(RCR)则显著降低。表明红脉穗螟幼虫对2种人工饲料有很好的适应性,可用于大量饲养。     

The impact of food type, temperature and starvation on larval development of Balanus amphitrite Darwin (Cirripedia: Thoracica)

The impact of diatom food species (Chaetoceros calcitrans and Skeletonema costatum), temperature and starvation on the larval development of Balanus amphitrite was evaluated. Starvation threshold levels for different ages of larvae (0- to 5-day-old) fed with C. calcitrans and S. costatum and then starved at 5, 15 and 25 °C temperature were estimated as ultimate recovery hour (URH; denoting the starvation point in hours at the end of which larvae can recover and continue development). Effect of temperature on starvation threshold varied significantly with larval age and food species. The URH declined with larval age at 5 °C, but not at 15 and 25 °C. The URH and grazing rates were high for early instars fed on C. calcitrans, and for advanced instars fed on S. costatum. Carbon gain through feeding was maximum for 2-day-old larvae when fed with C. calcitrans and decreased with larval age. However, when fed with S. costatum carbon gain increased with larval age. This confirms that with development the utility of food types changes. The differences in the carbon gain can be attributed to differences in grazing rate due to variations in the size of the diatom cells, larval intersetular distance, diatom sinking rate and the photo-taxic behavior of larvae. Molting was observed at times when larvae were undergoing starvation and this could be viewed as stress-induced molting, and it differed with the larval age and food organisms.     

低温和饥饿对华贵栉孔扇贝幼虫生长和存活的影响

为了弄清我国南方低温季节能否利用自然水温进行华贵栉孔扇贝人工育苗以及饵料缺乏对幼虫的影响,于2008年10月上旬和11月下旬,分别在水温25.5—28.0℃和18.2—22.5℃条件下,研究了低温和饥饿对幼虫生长、存活的影响。实验分两次设置常温、低温和饥饿3个组进行。结果表明,低温情况下,幼虫摄食较少,活力差、绝大部分沉入水底,生长缓慢,发育迟缓,但存活率仍较高;饥饿不但抑制幼虫的生长和发育,同时也显著地降低幼虫的存活率。此外,低温和饥饿的结合会加剧对幼虫生长、发育、存活等的抑制作用。这些结果说明在我国南方水温低于23℃的季节利用自然水温已不适合进行华贵栉孔扇贝苗种生产。     

Variation in growth of the detritivore-shredder Sericostoma personatum (Trichoptera)

1. We investigated the growth of the detritivore-shredder Sericostoma personatum by feeding groups of larvae on a fresh macrophyte, Potamogeton perfoliatus , conditioned sitka spruce needles, Picea sitchensis , conditioned alder leaves, Alnus glutinosa , conditioned ash leaves, Fraxinus excelsior , and a fresh filamentous green alga, Microspora sp. A sixth treatment group of larvae was fasted.
2. The nitrogen content of the food items ranged from 1.4% dry weight (DW) for Picea needles to 4.4% DW for Microspora filaments. Consumption of the various food items by Sericostoma differed significantly, being highest for Picea , and lowest for Potamogeton and Microspora .
3. The instantaneous growth rate ranged from −1.3% DW day⁻¹ in the fasting group to 0.75% DW day⁻¹ in the Alnus group. The growth rate of larvae fed on Alnus , Fraxinus and Microspora was similar, and significantly higher than that of the other three groups. An increase in the size of larval cases followed the same pattern as larval growth, although with less variation between food items.
4. Larvae fed on Microspora exhibited the greatest increase in fat content, while that of the larvae fed on Picea and those in the fasting group decreased. The gross growth efficiency (G/I%) of Sericostoma (larva + case) ranged from 2% when fed on Picea to 34% when fed on Microspora . Consumption was significantly correlated with the nutrient content of food items, whereas G/I% and growth rate were only weakly related to food quality.
5. The growth of Sericostoma varies with diet and the food items sustaining highest growth rate are not necessarily the 'typical' shredder food resources.     

Relative importance of parental and larval nutrition on larval development and metamorphosis of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis

We examined the relative importance of parental nutritional condition and larval food ration on the rates of development, growth and metamorphosis of larvae of Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis (Müller) in a laboratory experiment. Parents were reared for 22 months on either a high ration of kelp (Laminaria spp., 6 days week⁻¹) supplemented with mussel flesh (Mytilus spp., 1 day week⁻¹) (KM), or a low ration of kelp (1 day week⁻¹) (KL). Larvae were fed either a high ration (5000 cells ml⁻¹) or a low ration (500 cells ml⁻¹) of microalgae (Dunaliella tertiolecta). Larval food ration had a strong effect on the rates of development, growth, and metamorphosis, which were all significantly greater in larvae fed the high ration. Test diameter of settlers also was significantly greater in the high than the low ration. Parental nutritional condition had little or no effect on the rates of development and growth, and no effect on settler size. The rate of metamorphosis was significantly higher in larvae from the KM than the KL treatment in the high but not the low ration (where rates of metamorphosis were similar). Although parental condition generally had a small effect on larval development, our results suggest that when planktonic food is abundant, larvae of adults from nutritionally rich habitats (such as kelp beds) may metamorphose sooner than those of adults from nutritionally poor habitats (such as barrens).     

Effects of amino-acid mixtures on food utilization and growth in Tenebrio molitor L

Ten holidic diets, varying in amino-acid concentration or composition, were fed to larvae of Tenebrio molitor for four weeks at 27 +/- 0.25 degrees C and 65 +/- 5% r.h. Effects of diet on growth, food utilization and energy utilization were recorded for individual larvae. Differences in gains in fresh weight or in dry matter among larvae fed diets containing 0% to 5% of the amino-acid mixture were not demonstrated. However, larvae fed 10% or 20% of this mixture gained more than the former, but less than larvae fed a diet of ground whole wheat and brewer's yeast (9:1, w/w). When the amino-acid mixture was supplemented with alanine, aspartic acid, and serine, or with these three and asparagine, and was fed to larvae at the 10% level, growth was slower than with the unsupplemented mixture. Supplementation of the amino-acid mixture with the first three amino acids did not reduce larval growth when fed at the 20% level. Amounts of food and of energy utilized were positively correlated with larval fresh-weight and dry-matter gains. Energy utilization was negatively correlated with dietary amino-acid level. Food and energy utilization and larval growth were influenced by dietary amino acids, either metabolically or through phagostimulation.     

Effect of food plant switching by a herbivore on its parasitoid: Cotesia melanoscela development in Lymantria dispar exposed to reciprocal dietary crosses

1. Host plant switching by dispersing early instar lepidopterans could have implications for parasitoid performance, but this possibility has not been evaluated thoroughly. 2. The relative growth rates of Lymantria dispar parasitized by Cotesia melanoscela, and the weight of larvae at the time of parasitoid emergence, were affected most by the second larval food plant consumed. 3. The relative growth rates, pupal weights, weight of larva at the time of parasitoid emergence, and development times of L. dispar were affected significantly by the second larval food plant consumed. 4. Development time and size of Cotesia melanoscela were affected most by the second larval food plant consumed. 5. Parasitoid performance was affected most by the larval host’s relative growth rate and the final weight of the host larva at the time of parasitoid emergence. 6. Host plant switching affected the weight of L. dispar larvae at the time of parasitoid emergence, but the effect of switching per se was not a significant factor in C. melanoscela size or development. 7. Lymantria dispar larvae that fed on Populus as their second host outperformed larvae that fed ultimately on Acer. 8. Parasitoids yielded from L. dispar larvae that fed ultimately on Populus outperformed parasitoids yielded from larvae that fed ultimately on Acer. 9. Per cent mortality of L. dispar due to parasitism and percentage adult C. melanoscela emergence were highest in parasitized larvae fed Populus, poor in hosts fed Acer, and intermediate in switching larvae.     

Ascorbic acid influences the development and immunocompetence of larval Heliothis virescens

Ascorbic acid, known to be a free radical scavenger and vital to insect development, is important in larval resistance to baculovirus infection. We sequentially elevated the ascorbic acid content in an ascorbic acid-depleted diet and evaluated the effect on larval Heliothis virescens (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) development and immunocompetence. Dietary ascorbic acid levels lower than 0.7 g l⁻¹ slowed the growth rate of larvae, reduced pupal weights significantly, and severely inhibited adult emergence. Larvae developing on ascorbic acid-free diet experienced far higher levels of mortality following per os infection with virus. Additionally, viral infection in larvae fed an ascorbic acid-free diet, as monitored by epifluorescence microscopy, showed signs of infection much earlier than larvae fed control levels of ascorbic acid. These results demonstrate an indirect correlation between the level of ascorbic acid in the food stream of larval H. virescens and the susceptibility of the insect to baculoviral infection.     

食物对棉铃虫生长发育及繁殖的影响

用棉花、花生、玉米及人工饲料作为食料,模拟幼虫田间取食习性,同时为雌蛾设立补充和无补充营养两个处理,研究了食物对棉铃虫 Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) 生长发育及繁殖的影响。4种食料组幼虫历期之间有显著差异;雌、雄蛹重花生组显著小于其余三组。雌蛾腹部干重及其脂肪百分含量与雌蛹体重的排列顺序一样,雌蛾腹部干重人工饲料组显著大于棉花组和花生组。雌蛾寿命和繁殖受幼虫食料和成虫食物的双重影响。喂10%蜂蜜时,雌蛾寿命、交配率和产卵量在四个幼虫食料组之间没有显著差异。但喂以清水时,花生组雌蛾均未交配,寿命和产卵量显著小于其余三组。从同种幼虫食料来看,除人工饲料组外,其余3组雌蛾喂清水时的产卵量和寿命均比喂10%蜂蜜溶液时的显著下降。基于这些结果,作者认为棉花、玉米比花生更适合于棉铃虫的生长发育和繁殖。在田间自然栽培状态下,不同食料植物的糖分含量对棉铃虫生长发育和繁殖影响较大,含氮量的变化影响小。     

Cannibalism and Virus Production in Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Larvae Fed with Two Leaf Substrates Inoculated with Baculovirus spodoptera

Cannibalism in the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) (FAW), is a limiting factor in a baculovirus production system. To detect the impact of cannibalism, a two-step bioassay was conducted with different larval ages of FAW fed on two food sources (corn and castor bean leaves) contaminated with the S. frugiperda multiple-embedded nucleopolyhedrovirus. In a first bioassay, the food source affected the cannibalism, being higher for all larval ages tested (5-, 6- and 7-day-old larvae) in larvae fed on corn than on those fed on castor bean leaves. Larval mortality, weight equivalent and larval equivalents (LEs) per hectare decreased as the larval age increased. Larval weight, occlusion bodies (OBs)/larva and total OBs increased when the larval age increased. In a second bioassay, in which only 6- and 7-day-old larvae were used because of the performance in the first bioassay, the cannibalism rates were affected by the interaction between food sources and time of feeding (48 and 72 h), reaching the highest values for 6- and 7-day-old larvae fed on corn leaves for 72 h. Mortality of the FAW was affected by the interaction between food sources, larval age and time of feeding. The lowest mortalities were on 7-day-old larvae when they were fed on castor bean leaves for 48 and 72 h. Larval weight, OBs/larva, total OBs and LEs were affected by the interaction between food sources and larval age. A significant correlation was observed between larval weight and OBs/larva that fed on both food sources, suggesting that larval weight can be used to achieve a concentration to be sprayed in 1 ha.
