棉蚜2个乙酰胆碱酯酶cDNA片段的基因克隆与序列分析

采用RT－PCR技术,利用简并引物从棉蚜（Aphis gossypii Glover)中克隆出2个乙酰胆碱酯酶基因的cDNA片段,Ag,ace 1l和Ag.ace2.Ag.ace1基因的cDNA片段为282bp,编码94个氨基酸;Ag.ace2基因的cDNA片段为264bp,编码88个氨基酸。扩增获得的2个乙酰胆碱酯酶基因cDNA片段所编码的氨基酸序列均与其他昆虫的乙酰胆碱酯酶基因有很高的同源性。首次从一种昆虫中克隆出2个乙酰胆碱酯酶基因片段,为同一种昆虫中存在多个乙酰胆碱酯酶基因的假设提供了直接的分子生物学证据。     

棉蚜体内感染沃尔巴克氏体（Wolbachia）的分子检测

Wolbachia是存在于节肢动物体内的一类呈母系遗传的细胞内共生细菌 ,这类细菌可以通过卵的细胞质传播并参与调控寄主的生殖活动。通过对Wolbachia外膜蛋白质的wsp基因进行特异性扩增 ,证实了寄生于不同植物的棉蚜 (AphisgossypiiGlover)体内均有感染 ,说明Wolbachia可能广泛存在于棉蚜体内 ,扩增出的Wolbachia目的片段为 5 90bp左右。通过对棉蚜体内感染的Wolbachia的wsp基因序列进行分子检测 ,为进一步研究棉蚜的孤雌生殖与Wolbachia的相关关系等奠定基础。     

不同温度条件对棉蚜、棉长管蚜种间竞争关系的影响

【目的】棉蚜Aphis gossypii和棉长管蚜Acyrthosiphon gossypii是棉花上的共存种,本文拟明确不同恒温条件下两种蚜虫单种和共存时的种群动态、有翅蚜发生及在棉株上的分布情况,探讨温度对两者种间竞争的作用。【方法】棉蚜、棉长管蚜单种、混合初始等蚜量设置,分别置于室内21、24和27℃恒温条件下,系统调查记录各处理种群数量、有翅蚜数量及在棉株上的分布,应用内禀增长率rm、空间分布情况、有翅蚜比例为竞争判别指标。【结果】棉蚜单种种群过程的rm均大于棉长管蚜,共存条件下一种对另一种蚜虫的rm均没有显著影响;棉蚜种群97%以上在叶片活动,棉长管蚜在叶片的比例为55%~75%;同一温度条件,两种共存不影响对方在棉花叶片和茎秆上的分布;棉蚜和棉长管蚜主要分布于棉花中上部。随温度升高,共存种群中棉蚜向棉株下部移动的比例增加,单种和共存种群棉长管蚜趋向于棉株上部移动。同一温度条件下,共存对棉蚜上下分布没有明显影响。21℃和27℃棉蚜的存在对棉长管蚜没有显著影响,但24℃时共存可使棉长管蚜在下部的比例明显增加;随温度的升高,棉蚜有翅蚜比例下降显著,而棉长管蚜无显著变化。【结论】适温范围内,两种蚜虫种间竞争的存在不影响彼此的内在繁殖能力,棉蚜比棉长管蚜具有更强的内在竞争能力;温度对棉蚜在竞争活动空间上的影响不明显,而对棉长管蚜的上下位置的选择有一定作用;种间竞争和种内竞争加速棉蚜有翅蚜的发生。     

棉蚜种下变型的数值分类研究

 分别对在四种夏寄主及棉花两个生育期和三个温度下的棉蚜的14个形态特征进行了种下数值 分类研究。通过聚类分析和高氏距离分析,结果表明：夏寄主四季豆、西葫芦、棉花苗期 的绿色蚜和黄色蚜间及蕾期的触角6节蚜型和5节蚜型间都无明显差异。但马铃薯蚜与棉花苗 蚜、棉花苗蚜与伏蚜间的形态特征存在相当明显的分离,室内温度达30℃时棉蚜的形态特征 与伏蚜相似。并分析出可用7个主要形态特征区分这些种下变型。     

应用酶标仪动力学方法监测棉蚜的抗药性

用酶标仪动力学测定法对3个抗性水平不同的棉蚜品系（R1、R2和R3）和1个敏感品系（S）的羧酸酯酶进行了研究,S、R1、R2和R3品系对α-乙酸萘酯（α-NA）的平均比活力分别为57．10、1171．69、1236．14和3293．00μmol·mgpro－1·min-1（分光光度计终点测定法）和38．24、85．27、198．14和762．25mOD·min－1·aphid-1（酶标仪动力学法）。终点测定法结果显示出不同品系间最大相差达60倍;酶标仪动力学测定法研究表明,4个棉蚜品系羧酸酶活性与其抗药性程度显著相关。通过对这两种方法的比较,酶动力学方法的测定结果更可靠。

十一星瓢虫对枸杞棉蚜的捕食作用研究

十一星瓢虫Coccinella undecimpunctata Linnaeus是青海省柴达木地区的一种重要捕食性天敌。为明确其对枸杞棉蚜Aphis gossypii Glover和枸杞木虱Poratrioza sinica Yang et Li.两种主要枸杞害虫的嗜好性,开展了捕食选择性试验,发现当两种害虫共存时,瓢虫成虫更喜食棉蚜。为进一步探究十一星瓢虫对枸杞棉蚜的捕食能力,测定了瓢虫各龄幼虫和成虫在不同棉蚜密度下的捕食量、寻找效应以及种内干扰、自身密度对捕食作用的影响。结果表明：十一星瓢虫各虫态对棉蚜的捕食功能反应均符合Holling-Ⅱ功能反应模型,种内干扰、自身密度对捕食量的影响分别符合Hassell干扰效应模型和Watt模型。十一星瓢虫1~4龄幼虫及成虫对枸杞棉蚜的日最大理论捕食量分别为18.94、44.29、81.57、145.27和126.48头;在一定空间、相同瓢蚜比条件下,瓢虫同一虫态个体间存在种内干扰效应,以1龄幼虫受干扰最大,干扰常数为1.1803。此外,瓢虫自身密度对其捕食作用产生一定影响,以4龄幼虫和成虫尤甚,竞争参数分别为0.7948、0.6848。本研究可为今后更高效地利用青海高原本地十一星瓢虫资源提供理论依据。     

Impact of transgenic cotton plants on a non-target pest, Aphis gossypii Glover

Abstract.  1. Transgenic crops have shown great promise for the control of target pest insects, but in some cases they can also influence non-target species. This study investigated the impact of Bt and Bt+CpTI transgenic cottons on the non-target cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover, by comparing life-table parameters, feeding behaviour, and the fluctuating asymmetry of morphological traits of aphids reared on transgenic cotton and those on untransformed control plants.
2. Aphids on the Bt+CpTI cotton showed a shorter reproductive duration and maximum lifespan, lower survival rates and potential maximum fecundity, and an earlier occurrence of peak daily mortality in the first or second generation. However, the aphid population soon developed fitness and overcame the negative effect in the second or third generation. The aphids on the Bt cotton had significantly longer reproductive durations in the first generation, higher survival rates in the third generation, and apparently larger potential maximum fecundity in all three generations.
3. The percentages of accumulated duration of feeding waveforms E1 and E2 were significantly lower in aphids on the Bt+CpTI cotton than in those on the Bt or control cotton, whereas the frequencies of moving and finding feeding sites, and probe behaviour were significantly higher.
4. Fluctuating asymmetry in three morphological characters of aphids reared on transgenic and control cotton was detected. The fluctuating asymmetry value of the third segment of antenna in aphids on Bt+CpTI cotton was significantly higher than that of aphids on Bt or control cotton. Based on the fluctuating asymmetry value, the stress of cotton on the aphids could be ranked as Bt+CpTI cotton > Bt cotton > control cotton.     

寄主植物对瓜蚜酯酶活性及其耐药性的影响

寄主植物对瓜蚜无翅胎生雌蚜体重、体色、体内酯酶活性均有明显影响。取食笋瓜、南瓜、瓠子、黄瓜和冬瓜的瓜蚜,体重依次增加,体色渐深,而体内羧酸酯酶活性依次渐低。取食不同奇主植物的瓜蚜对杀虫剂的耐药性与其体内酯酶活性呈正相关。瓜蚜体内羧酸酯酶活性（X）与乐果对瓜蚜的LC50（Y）附会Y=8．3827X－67．8530（r=0．952）,与功夫菊酯对瓜蚜的LC50（Y）附合Y=1．040X－28．89（r=0．985）的线性关系。     

Host-based genetic differentiation in the aphid Aphis gossypii Glover, evidenced from RAPD fingerprints

Samples of the aphid Aphis gossypii (Glover) were collected from different host plants at 18 locations in southern France, La Réunion, Portugal and Laos. RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) patterns of the 480 aphids were obtained using three random primers. A large number of RAPD bands were shared by all aphids of the 18 populations, but some RAPD bands appeared to be population specific. Over all aphids, a total of 37 polymorphic bands were identified and defined 142 RAPD phenotypes. A cluster analysis based on genetic distance revealed that the 18 aphid populations were divided into two groups, depending on whether they were collected on a cucurbit host plant. An analysis of molecular variance ( AMOVA ) was also performed and confirmed the differentiation into two groups. Several RAPD bands that were obtained using random primer A11 could be considered as diagnostic loci as they were fixed in populations collected on cucurbits and were always absent in those collected on noncucurbit host plants. These results represent the first evidence for genetic structuring within the species A. gossypii , according to host-plant type.     

Variation in clonal diversity in glasshouse infestations of the aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover in southern France

Aphis gossypii is an aphid species that is found throughout the world and is extremely polyphagous. It is considered a major pest of cotton and cucurbit species. In Europe, A. gossypii is assumed to reproduce exclusively by apomictic parthenogenesis. The present study investigates the genetic diversity of A. gossypii in a microgeographic, fragmented habitat consisting of eight glasshouses of cucurbit crops. This analysis, which was based on the results from seven microsatellite loci, has confirmed that A. gossypii populations in southern France are primarily asexual, as only 12 nonrecombinant genotypic classes (clones) were identified from 694 aphids. Moreover, a high proportion of the aphids (87%) had one of three common genotypes. No significant correlation was found between genotypic class and host plant species. Within a glasshouse population of A. gossypii, a significant reduction in clonal diversity was observed as the spring/summer season progressed. The final predominance of a clone could result from interclonal competition. At the microgeographic level (i.e. glasshouses within a 500-m radius), significant genetic subdivision was detected and could be attributed to founder effects and the limitation of gene flow imposed by the enclosed nature of the glasshouse structure. Finally, the three common clones of A. gossypii detected in 1996 reappeared in spring 1997 following the winter extinction, together with rare clones that had not previously been seen. The probability that A. gossypii overwinters within refuges at a microgeographic scale from which populations are renewed each spring is discussed.     

温度对马铃薯棉蚜生长发育及种群增长的影响

采用新叶圆片法,研究了不同恒温(10℃、15℃、20℃、25℃和30℃)条件下马铃薯棉蚜的发育历期、存活率、生殖力及种群生命表参数。结果表明:棉蚜在马铃薯上的各龄历期和成蚜寿命及产仔期随温度的升高而缩短,世代历期、成蚜寿命和产仔期分别从10℃的17.72 d、53.03 d和26.18 d下降到30℃的4.77 d、14.60 d和6.84 d。完成1代需要的有效积温为110.84日度,发育起点温度为4.56℃。总产仔量在15℃-25℃范围内最高(63.29-69.36头),其次为10℃(40.00头);日均产仔量在25℃时最高(5.61头/日),其次为20℃(3.47头/日)和30℃(3.35头/日)。除在10℃时为Deevey-II型存活曲线外,在其它温度下均为Deevey-I型存活曲线。根据内禀增长率大小排序,25℃是马铃薯棉蚜生长发育、存活、繁殖及种群增长的最适温度,其后依次为30℃、20℃、15℃和10℃。     

Purification and characterization of acetylcholinesterase from cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii Glover)

A simple and effective method was set up to purify acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC3.1.1.7) from the cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover. The procedure involved filtration on a sephadex G-25 column, separation with sephadex G-200 and procainamide affinity column. AChE from both susceptible and resistant strains were purified to a single band as resolved on denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The specific activity increased by 35,100- and 33,680-fold with a yield of 30.3 and 29.8%, respectively. The molecular mass of the purified AChE was about 63,500 Dalton as determined by SDS-PAGE. However, three bands resolved on PAGE gel electrophoresis, leading to the inference that native AChE exists in three forms. The optimum conditions for measuring the activity of purified AChE with kinetic method were 0.02M phosphate buffer, pH7.2, 0.02 mM 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB), and 25 degrees C. Investigation also revealed that crude extract and purified AChE had different kinetic characteristics and inhibitory properties. They responded differently to varied DTNB, ATChI, and phosphate buffer ion concentrations, as well as pH, temperature, and inhibitors. The purified AChE was more sensitive to eserine, methamidophos, and pirimicarb. Especially for resistant aphids, the sensitivity of purified AChE to methamidophos and pirimicarb was enhanced 6.43 and 11.73 times, respectively. We infer that one or more factors in the crude extract from the resistance strain have more influence on AChE sensitivity. Further study is needed to investigate the basis of these observations.     

棉蚜种群季节性变异的生态条件

研究棉蚜在不同温度下取食不同生育期棉叶后种群的变动情况。通过Weibull函数模拟、生命表分析和高氏距离分析比较表明,无论在苗期和蕾期,随着渐度的升高棉蚜种群的死亡高峰日均提前,世代寿命明显缩短;然而,在20-25℃范围内,相同温度时棉蚜生活在棉花蕾期叶上的繁殖力明显高于苗期叶上的繁殖力。在30℃时繁殖力普遍明显下降,温度20-25℃最适于棉蚜的生长与繁殖。且棉花殖生长期比营养生长期更适于棉蚜的生存和繁殖,温度与棉花生育期都是导致苗蚜与伏蚜生长与繁殖差异的外界因素。     

南京地区棉蚜的飞行活动节律及其飞行能力

昆虫的飞行活动规律及飞行能力是研究其能否迁飞的基础。通过采用春季到秋季20 m高空黄盆诱蚜、高空所诱蚜和春季木槿树上有翅蚜的卵巢解剖,以及春夏秋三季田间有翅蚜的吊飞试验等方法,研究了南京地区棉蚜Aphis gossypii的飞行活动节律和飞行能力。结果表明,有翅棉蚜的日羽化高峰出现在19:00～20:00。2001年南京地区棉蚜的春、秋两季迁飞高峰分别在5月8日和10月25日。5月份高空诱集的棉蚜中,95.7%个体的卵巢小管数在7条以下,而木槿上羽化后1天的有翅蚜中有35.2%个体的卵巢小管数在7条以上;高空诱蚜和木槿上蚜的平均卵巢小管数存在极显著差异,分别为3.94±1.65和5.88±1.92。8月中下旬棉田棉蚜存在低空飞行行为,并且出现飞行高峰时有翅蚜的卵巢小管数平均在6条以下,超过6条则停止飞行。羽化后1～2天有翅棉蚜吊飞个体的飞行比率和平均飞行距离表现为春、秋季显著大于夏季,三季的最长飞行距离分别为3.89 km、6.15 km和1.44 km。     

棉蚜寄主专化型及其形成的行为机理

通过生活在甜瓜和棉花上的棉蚜Aphisgossypii Glover的行为,研究棉蚜的寄主专化型及其形成的行为机理。生物学观察显示： 两类棉蚜在寄主植物相互交换以后,定居数显著减少,棉花蚜型棉蚜的繁殖系数及若虫存活率显著下降,说明棉蚜存在甜瓜蚜型和棉花蚜型两种寄主专化型。通过刺探电位技术研究棉蚜的取食行为,以探索其寄主专化型形成的行为机理。结果表明： 甜瓜蚜型棉蚜在棉花上的取食行为容易被中断,但其口针定位韧皮部的能力并没有显著削弱;而棉花蚜型棉蚜在甜瓜上的取食行为受到更大的影响,口针无法顺利定位至韧皮部,并在2 h内根本无法在筛管内取食。生物学观察和EPG取食行为分析都显示： 与甜瓜蚜型棉蚜相比,棉花蚜型棉蚜对寄主的要求更严格-寄主专化程度更高,对寄主的利用率更高。     

高温对共存种棉蚜与棉长管蚜死亡及繁殖的影响

棉蚜和棉长管蚜是棉花上的共存种,为探索其年内及年际间优势地位的不同是否与两者对高温的不同响应有关,室内研究了高温胁迫(32、34、36和38℃)对棉蚜和棉长管蚜死亡及繁殖的影响.结果表明:随着温度的升高和高温持续天数的延长,棉蚜和棉长管蚜累计死亡率均升高,棉长管蚜累计死亡率高于棉蚜;两种蚜虫的每日死亡率可用互补重对数模型较好地拟合,模型估计的棉蚜和棉长管蚜半数致死温度值随高温持续天数的延长而降低,棉蚜半数致死温度高于棉长管蚜;在32 ～ 38℃范围内,两种蚜虫的繁殖率随温度的升高而降低,棉蚜繁殖率显著高于棉长管蚜,表明在32℃以上高温条件下,棉蚜比棉长管蚜更具有竞争力.随着全球气候变暖,由于棉蚜比棉长管蚜更耐高温,推测未来棉蚜比棉长管蚜竞争优势更加明显.     

抗性品系棉蚜乙酰胆碱酯酶和羧酸酯酶的变异

用浸叶法测定了采自我国不同地区(泰安、莱阳、南京、北京和安阳)的棉蚜品系Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ、Ⅳ、Ⅴ对久效磷、甲胺磷、抗蚜威和灭多威等杀虫剂的抗性水平,各棉蚜品系对杀虫剂的抗性依次为Ⅴ>Ⅳ>Ⅲ,Ⅱ>Ⅰ。进一步研究表明,Ⅴ和Ⅳ品系棉蚜乙酰胆碱酯酶对杀虫剂的敏感性显著下降,Ⅱ品系次之,Ⅲ和Ⅰ品系接近于敏感品系。Ⅴ和Ⅳ品系乙酰胆碱酯酶的Km值显著下降,表明酶发生了质的变化。不同棉蚜抗性品系的酯酶（全酯酶和羧酸酯酶）活性均显著升高,其中Ⅲ品系的酯酶活力为Ⅱ品系的2倍。Ⅴ品系羧酸酯酶Km值达2460.4 μmol/L,而Ⅳ品系仅为84.4 μmol/L,该两个品系羧酸酯酶发生了质的变化。研究结果表明,不同抗性程度的棉蚜品系均存在代谢抗性和靶标抗性。低抗水平的棉蚜品系,以代谢抗性为主,靶标抗性为辅;中抗水平的棉蚜品系,抑或由于解毒代谢酶的活性显著增强,也可能由于靶标的敏感性显著下降;而高抗水平的棉蚜品系,依赖于代谢抗性和靶标抗性的联合作用。
