桃小食心虫越冬幼虫过冷却能力及体内生化物质动态

为研究桃小食心虫Carposina niponensis Walsingham自然种群过冷却能力的变化动态,从生理生化水平上探讨桃小食心虫幼虫耐寒机制,测定了桃小食心虫幼虫在越冬前后不同月份的过冷却点、体内含水量、脂肪、蛋白和糖原的含量。结果表明:桃小食心虫越冬幼虫的过冷却点(super-cooling point, SCP)和结冰点(freezing point, FP)随越冬期温度降低而逐渐降低, 并在冬季过后随温度升高而逐渐升高,其中在3月份时最低,分别为-14.89℃和-9.95℃,显著低于其它月份。幼虫体内含水量、总蛋白含量、糖原含量在越冬前后变化趋势与SCP变化相似并且各自又有不同的特点,但在2月份时都达最低,分别为44.83%、32.44μg/mg、1.95μg/mg。幼虫体内的总脂肪含量由越冬初期(2008-10)的29.04％逐渐降低至越冬后期(2009-06)的15.56％。结果说明桃小食心虫幼虫越冬过程中体内水分、总蛋白、糖原等生化物质含量的变化与其抗寒能力存在一定的联系,显示了其对冬季温度变化的生态适应。

The dynamics of super-cooling ability and biochemical substances in the overwintering Carposina niponensi Walsingham (Lepidoptera: Carposinidae) larvae

The peach fruit moth,Carposina niponensis Walsingham,is one of the key insect pests on fruit trees,such as apple,peach and hawkthorn.Its damages have been growing up in recent years because of the effects of fruit cultivation model,the adjustment of planting structure and global warming.Under natural conditions the moth develops one to two generations in Shandong province and overwinters as cocooned larvae for nearly eight months in the upper layer of soil.In the present study,experiments were carried out t...
