不同温度对经吡虫啉处理的异色瓢虫捕食能力的影响

在不同温度条件下,测定经亚致死剂量(LC25)的吡虫啉处理的异色瓢虫Harmonia axyridis(Pallas)对蚜虫的捕食能力.结果显示,不同温度对药剂处理后的异色瓢虫的捕食量、寻找效应、捕食功能等方面都有显著影响.异色瓢虫24 h内捕食量,在20℃和25℃下处理组显著高于对照组,而30℃下则处理组显著低于对照组.不同温度下,吡虫啉处理组与对照组功能反应模型均为符合HollingⅡ型,但其参数均发生了变化.异色瓢虫处理组的瞬时攻击率(a),在20℃和25℃下,处理组均高于对照组,30℃时则低于对照组;异色瓢虫对猎物的处理时间也显示出相同的趋势,20℃和25℃时,处理组比对照组处理时间均有所缩短,而30℃下处理时间稍有延长.     

亚致死剂量杀虫剂对异色瓢虫捕食作用的影响

为探讨害虫化学防治与生物防治的协调技术,提高综合防治水平,测定了吡虫啉,鱼藤酮,氰戊菊酯和阿维菌素A种杀虫剂亚致死剂量对异色瓢虫成虫捕食桃蚜功能反应的影响。亚致死剂量杀虫剂对异色瓢虫功能反应模型的基本结构没有改变,但影响到了模型的各项参数,药剂处理后异色瓢虫最大日捕食量降低,处理猎物的时间延长,捕食速率和寻找效应一般也被减弱,影响结果还与异色瓢虫受药的方式有关,4种药剂中以氰戊菊酯的影响最大,鱼藤酮的胃毒作用也较明显,研究结果表明亚致死剂量的杀虫剂对天敌异色瓢虫的捕食作用存在着不良影响,这为害虫治理中如何协调利用化学防治和生物防治措施,指导科学用药提供了一定的理论基础。

Ecology and biological control application of multicoloured Asian ladybird, Harmonia axyridis: A review

The ecology of and biological control by multicoloured Asian ladybird beetle, Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) are reviewed. Our emphasis is on assembling and interpreting information on general characteristics, invasion and establishment, sexual activity, foraging and predation, development, survival and reproduction, predator-predator interactions, natural enemies, biocontrol, non-target effects and status of H. axyridis as a pest of fruits. Colonization of H. axyridis for aphid biocontrol in the USA have been successful in terms of its establishment, but its abundance is turning out to be a nuisance to humans. Its harmful non-target impact on beneficial organisms, humans and native species is becoming a debatable issue. The question on its present position, whether it is a biocontrol agent or pest, is a critical issue and discussed. Inferences from the empirical data are made and new avenues for future research are suggested.     

Walking activity of flightless Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) as a biological control agent

The use of flightless strains of the multicolored Asian lady beetle, Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), established via artificial selection, can be highly effective as a biological control agent for aphids. However, flightless H. axyridis must depend on walking for dispersion. Therefore, data on the walking activity levels in flightless strains are important for the development of effective methods when releasing these agents in the field. Results of measurement of walking activity levels using an infrared actograph showed that walking activity levels during the daytime (but not nighttime) in both sexes of pure flightless strains tended to be lower than those of control strains. We also found that walking activity levels during the daytime for the F1 generation of hybrid strains, produced by reciprocal crossing between two pure flightless strains, were approximately equal to those of pure strains; the reduction in walking activity levels was not recovered by hybrid vigor. Our results indicate that the reduction in walking activity levels in the pure flightless strains was not caused merely by inbreeding depression stemming from the artificial selection process. Instead, potentially flight ability and walking activity levels in this species may be controlled by the pleiotropic effect of a gene.

为探索饲养异色瓢虫Harmonia axyridis（Pallas）的最适温度,了解其对高温的耐受性,组建了异色瓢虫在15,20,25,30和35℃下的实验种群生命表。结果表明：各虫态的发育速率随温度的升高而加快,在15℃下世代的发育历期最长（65.5d）,而30℃时仅为22.4d,20℃和25℃时分别为39.0d和23.0d。卵、幼虫、蛹和世代的发育起点温度分别为9.8,8.2,11.6和8.5℃,有效积温分别为41.1,225.6,81.6,432.6日.度。成虫寿命随温度升高而逐渐缩短,15℃时最长,为77.7d,在30℃下最短,为36.3d;单雌产卵量在25℃时最高,平均为2193.0粒,15℃时最低,为626.0粒。在25℃下,异色瓢虫的种群趋势指数和内禀增长力均较高,分别为916.7和0.15,表明25℃是异色瓢虫生长、繁殖的最适温度。     

Interaction between Podisus maculiventris and Harmonia axyridis two predators used in augmentative biological control in greenhouse crops

Intraguild predation (IGP) betweenthe pentatomid Podisus maculiventris(Say) and the coccinellid Harmoniaaxyridis (Pallas) in the absence or presenceof the extraguild prey Spodopteralittoralis (Boisduval) and Myzuspersicae (Sulzer) was studied in thelaboratory. Interactions were asymmetric infavor of the pentatomid. Podisusmaculiventris readily fed upon eggs and larvaeof H. axyridis, but adult beetles wererarely attacked. Success of attacks by P.maculiventris was stage dependent, fourthinstars and adults being more successful inkilling ladybeetle larvae than second instars.Attacks by H. axyridis on the pentatomidwere rare and none of them were successful. Theeffect of introducing extraguild prey on thelevel of IGP was tested both in petri dishesand on caged sweet pepper plants. Whensufficient numbers of S. littoralislarvae were present to satiate the pentatomid,predation on H. axyridis larvae decreasedsignificantly, indicating that the coccinellidis a less preferred or less vulnerable prey.When the aphid M. persicae was presentedas extraguild prey, levels of IGP were notaltered. Nymphs of P. maculiventrissuccessfully completed development whenexclusively fed on larvae of H. axyridis,but developmental time was longer than onlepidopteran prey. No pentatomid nymphs reachedadulthood on aphids alone. IGP by P.maculiventris on H. axyridis may be ofsome importance in greenhouse crops, where bothpredators are being used increasingly inaugmentative biological control programs.Nonetheless, it is expected that in practicelarger larvae and adults of H. axyridiswill escape most attacks by the pentatomid.

Colour-associated mating success in a polymorphic Ladybird Beetle, Harmonia axyridis

1. Body size is often an important character in mating success, but has been only infrequently mentioned in regard to colour polymorphism. In this study, mating success was investigated in a colour polymorphic Ladybird Beetle, Harmonia axyridis , with reference both to colour morph and to body size.
2. In the non-melanic males the mating individuals were significantly larger than solitary individuals, while in melanic males there was no significant difference.
3. The mating pattern was close to random mating with respect to colour morph and there was no significant deviation.
4. The results suggest both body size and colour morph affect the male mating success and males of different body size obtain mating advantage according to the colour morph. Colour polymorphism in this species is controlled by alleles on a single locus. Thus, the alleles on that locus significantly influence the effect of selection on the quantitative character.
