Effect of culture substrates on virulence of Beauveria bassiana (Ascomycota: Cordycipitaceae) conidia against the browntail moth,Euproctis chrysorrhoea (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae)

We studied the effect of different solid substrates on virulence of two Beauveria bassiana isolates against the browntail moth, Euproctis chrysorrhoea (L.) (Lep.: Lymantriidae). Conidia produced on wheat grains, wheat flour, wheat bran, rice flour, rice bran, rice paddy, corn flour, millet, and Sabouraud's dextrose agar with 1% yeast extract (SDAY) as control were compared. There were significant differences among these substrates for their effects on the virulence of produced conidia. Applying 10⁷ conidia/mL of B. bassiana EUT105, produced on rice bran caused the highest (84.9%) and on rice flour, the lowest (57.6%) mortalities. Bioassay on fifth-instar larvae using aerial conidia harvested from wheat grains, rice paddy, and SDAY indicated that conidia from wheat grains had the highest virulence while those from rice paddy, the lowest.

Comparative mortalities of the brown-tail moth, Euproctis chrysorrhoea (L.) (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae), in south-east England

STERLING, P. H. & SPEIGHT, M. R., 1989. Comparative mortalities of the brown-tail moth, Euproctis chrysorrhoea (L.) (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae), in south-east England . The mortalities within natural infestations of the brown-tail moth were investigated from 1982–1984 in four sites in south-east England. Mortality agents were quantified from field and laboratory assessments. Microsporidial disease was the most important factor, causing 91.9% mortality in large larvae in one population; cytoplasmic and nuclear polyhedrosis viruses were present, but not significant. Many species of parasitoid were recorded, particularly at the end of the larval and in the pupal stages; however, combined parasitoid mortality was low. Predators were also of little importance, although cuckoos were found to take up to 19.3% of pupae at one site. Changes in density of larvae in the spring were more strongly influenced by dispersal following defoliation than by any particular mortality agent in most cases. In terms of biological control, diseases offer the greatest potential for development.     

Nosema chrysorrhoeae n. sp. (Microsporidia), isolated from browntail moth (Euproctis chrysorrhoea L.) (Lepidoptera, Lymantriidae) in Bulgaria: characterization and phylogenetic relationships

A new microsporidian parasite Nosema chrysorrhoeae n. sp., isolated in Bulgaria from the browntail moth (Euproctis chrysorrhoea L.), is described. Its life cycle includes two sequential developmental cycles that are similar to the general developmental cycles of the Nosema-like microsporidia and are indistinguishable from those of two Nosema spp. from Lymantria dispar. The primary cycle takes place in the midgut tissues and produces binucleate primary spores. The secondary developmental cycle takes place exclusively in the silk glands and produces binucleate environmental spores. N. chrysorrhoeae is specific to the browntail moth. Phylogenetic analysis based on the ssu rRNA gene sequence places N. chrysorrhoeae in the Nosema/Vairimorpha clade, with the microsporidia from lymantriid and hymenopteran hosts. Partial sequences of the lsu rRNA gene and ITS of related species Nosema kovacevici (Purrini K., Weiser J., 1975. Natürliche Feinde des Goldafters, Euproctis chrysorrhoea L., im Gebiet von Kosovo, FSR Jugoslawien. Anzeiger fuer Sch?dlingskunde, Pflanzen-Umweltschutz, 48, 11-12), Nosema serbica Weiser, 1963 and Nosema sp. from Lymantria monacha was obtained and compared with N. chrysorrhoeae. The molecular data indicate the necessity of future taxonomic reevaluation of the genera Nosema and Vairimorpha.     

Sex pheromone and related compounds in the Ishigaki and Okinawa strains of the tussock moth Orgyia postica (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae)

Two distinct electroantennographycally active (EAG-active) components, A and B, and a weakly active component C were found in a solvent extract from virgin females of the Ishigaki strain of the tussock moth, Orgyia postica (Walker). Components A, B, and C were found in the extract of the females at 4.0, 0.5, and 4.0 ng/female respectively. Components A, B, and C were identified as (6Z,9Z,11S,12S)-11,12-epoxyhenicosa-6,9-diene [(11S,12S)-1: posticlure], (6Z)-henicos-6-en-11-one (2), and (6Z,9Z)-henicosa-6,9-diene (3), respectively. Component B was absent in the extract from the Okinawa strain, in which components A and C were present at 2.0 and 1.5 ng/female respectively. (11S,12S)-1 and the racemic mixture showed attractiveness for both the Okinawa and Ishigaki strains, whereas (11R,12R)-1 did not. The addition of 2 significantly reduced the trap catches with (11S,12S)-1 on the Okinawa strain which lacked 2, while there was no significant inhibitory effect on the Ishigaki strain. The addition of 3 to (11S,12S)-1 did not significantly affect trap catches at Ishigaki or Okinawa. This confirmed that the attractant pheromone of O. postica of the Ishigaki strain is also (11S,12S)-1.     

Tests of the role of a nuclear polyhedrosis virus in the population dynamics of its host,douglas-fir tussock moth,Orgyia pseudotsugata (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae)

Summary Outbreaks of the Douglas-fir tussock moth, Orgyia pseudotsugata (McDunnough), have recurred periodically, at 7- to 10-year intervals, since the first recorded observation in 1916 in Chase, British Columbia, Canada. Anderson and May (1981) hypothesized that microparasites are responsible for the periodic population fluctuations of some defoliating insects. We chose the association between the Douglas-fir tussock moth and a viral disease, caused by a nuclear polyhedrosis virus (NPV), to test whether their model, and variants thereof, can predict the observed population cycles. Density-dependent mortality, vertical transmission of the virus and an incubation period were added to the free-living stages model of Anderson and May (1981). Parameter values for the models were derived from published data and from an experiment.Sensitivity analyses conducted for each model showed that none of the models generated the behavior of the Douglas-fir tussock moth as observed in the field. Thus, the periodicity of the outbreaks in field populations of tussock moths cannot be explained solely by the dynamics of the viral disease as described by Anderson and May's class of models; the virus is too short-lived and the growth rate of the insect population too high. Dynamics of other system components such as predators, parasites or food of the tussock moth probably play a significant role in the insect's population dynamics.     

Inhibitory activity of Catharanthus roseus alkaloids on enzyme activity and reproduction in Euproctis fraternal (Lepidoptera: Lymantridae)

Studies on the effect of Catharanthus roseus alkaloids on the biology of Euproctis fraterna showed that at a dose of 10 ppm, only 19.25% fertile eggs were laid. The hatchability was totally suppressed at higher doses. There was a considerable reduction in total carbohydrate and protein content in treated larvae. The activity of digestive enzymes were also found to be inhibited.     

Phenology of Parasetigena silvestris (Diptera: Tachinidae), gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar) (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae) larval parasitoid and its efficiency for parasitisation

Parasetigena silvestris is a univoltine, solitary, larval endoparasitoid which lays its eggs on the surface of gypsy moth larvae. Field collection of the host larvae (2nd through 5th instar) from an artificially established gypsy moth population were made to compare stage specific parasitism between larvae without and with P. silvestris tachinid eggs. The tachinid oviposition rate detected was highest in second instar larvae, and then decreased as larvae developed toward full maturity. The opposite was true for tachinid parasitoid emergence which had no emergence from second through third host instar larvae. Fourth instar gypsy moth larvae, however, experienced significantly higher parasitism by P. silvestris in the larvae with eggs than those without the eggs. The braconid wasp Cotesia melanoscelus caused significantly higher parasitism in early instar larvae with P. silvestris eggs than in those without the eggs. The tachinid prefers to lay more eggs on parasitised larvae by the braconid even though the braconid is a superior competitor to the fly during multiparasitism. Factors influencing parasitism rates by P. silvestris such as host-parasitoid synchronisation and the multiparasitism interaction with C. melanoscelus are discussed.
