斑须蝽生物学特性及成虫耐寒性的研究

斑须蝽Dalycoris baccarum(Linnaeus)是多种作物和苗木的重要害虫。在鲁西南一年发生3代，以成虫主要在越冬菜叶夹缝、作物根际、枯枝落叶，树皮及房屋缝隙等处越冬。其越冬成虫结冰点和过冷却点分别为-5．2℃和-8．5℃。冬季极端低温对其越冬成活率有明显影响．第一代发生较轻．第二代发生重。成虫具弱趋光性，第二代上灯量占全年总量的77．56%。     

Formation of Nicotinamide Ribose Diphosphate Ribose,a New Metabolite of NAD,by Aspergillus niger

Aspergillus niger (AKU 3302) degraded NAD to form Compound X. This compound was identified as nicotinamide ribose diphosphate ribose (NAmRDPR) by hydrolysis with alkaline or phosphodiesterase followed by chemical analysis of the products. NAmRDPR showed absorption maxima at 265~266 nm in 0.1 n HCI and 325 nm in 1.0 n KCN. Optimal pH for NAmRDPR formation by the enzyme preparation from this organism was around 4.0. Formation of NAmRDPR proceeded stoichiometrically with degradation of NAD. Some of other strains of A. niger formed NAmRDPR, but production of this compound was not demonstrated in other mold genera.     

Effect of photoperiod on the size–temperature relationship in a pentatomid bug, Dolycoris baccarum

(1) The effects of photoperiod and temperature on nymphal growth, development and adult size in a pentatomid bug, Dolycoris baccarum, were examined. (2) The temperature–size relationship was not stable but was highly affected by the photoperiod, and showed a geographical variation. (3) There were variations also in the developmental period and the growth rate. (4) The responses to temperature and photoperiod can explain the seasonal and geographical adaptations of the insect, and thus are considered to be important seasonal adaptations in D. baccarum.

Detection of Rhopalosiphum insertum (apple-grass aphid) predation by the predatory mite Anystis baccarum using molecular gut analysis

Abstract 1 A simple, yet sensitive polymerase chain reaction based technique was developed for the detection of the apple‐grass aphid Rhopalosiphum insertum in the gut of Anystis baccarum, a predatory mite. 2 A range of conserved polymerase chain reaction primers for insect mitochondrial and ribosomal DNA were tested in order to amplify R. insertum DNA. The mitochondrial DNA primers LrRNAR2 + N1F1, amplified a region between the ND1 and large subunit RNA genes. 3 DNA sequencing of the R. insertum ND1‐LRNA polymerase chain reaction product allowed aphid‐specific polymerase chain reaction primers to be designed. These amplified a 283‐bp product from individual aphids. No polymerase chain reaction product was amplified from individual A. baccarum. 4 Using the aphid‐specific primers against A. baccarum fed on R. insertum, the diagnostic 283‐bp product was amplified. 5 Two restriction enzymes (RsaI and AluI) produced patterns that allowed unambiguous identification of R. insertum DNA from that of Macrosiphum euphorbiae and Myzus persicae.     

Morphology and chemical composition of metathoracic scent glands in Dolycoris baccarum (Linnaeus, 1758) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae)

One of the general defining characters of the Heteroptera is the presence of metathoracic scent glands (MTG). Using scanning electron microscopy, the morphology of the MTG of Dolycoris baccarum (Linnaeus 1758) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) was studied. The MTG belong to the diastomian type. The two glandular pores located between the mesothoracic and metathoracic coxae are associated with 'mushroom-like' structures. The MTG are composed of a reservoir and a pair of lateral glands is connected to the reservoir by a duct. A groove-like structure extends downwards from the ostiole. While this structure is long and wide, its ostiole is oval. Extracts of the volatile fractions from male and female MTG secretions were analysed by capillary gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and exhibited a typical pentatomid composition. Seventeen chemical compounds were detected in female secretions, whereas 13 chemical compounds were detected in the male secretions. Most chemical compounds were similar between the sexes but were different in their quantities. In this regard, the compounds identified were investigated and the biological functions of the glandular secretions were discussed. In the analyses of the MTG of females of D. baccarum , tridecane (50.97%) was a major odour component and (Z,Z)-4,16-octadecadien-1-ol acetate (0.02%) was a minor odour component. In males, tridecane (50.80%) was a major odour component and 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid (0.02%) was a minor odour component.     

Impact of the predatory mite Anystis baccarum (Prostigmata: Anystidae) on apple rust mite Aculus schlechtendali (Prostigmata: Eriophyidae) populations in Northern Ireland Bramley orchards

Anystis baccarum is a common predatory mite in Northern Ireland Bramley orchards. To determine its effect on Aculus schlechtendali populations, sticky traps and sprays of demeton‐S‐methyl were used to exclude A. baccarum from branches. Out of four trials, exclusion of A. baccarum by sticky traps alone resulted in significantly greater numbers of A. schlechtendali in one trial. In the other trials where A. schlechtendali numbers were lower, there was either no effect, or possible evidence of fewer A. schlechtendali. The combination of demeton‐S‐methyl treatments and sticky traps to exclude A. baccarum resulted in significantly more A. schlechtendali in two trials out of three in 1998. It seems likely that this resulted from the dual effects of stimulation of A. schlechtendali reproduction by the acaricide and the absence of predation by A. baccarum, because acaricide treatment alone in 1999 resulted in significant reductions in A. schlechtendali numbers at the end of the season. This effect could have resulted from A. baccarum re‐invading the treatment branches after the effects of the acaricide had worn off. It is recommended that growers are encouraged to conserve A. baccarum within their orchards.
