Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) is a serious pest on cotton in China. A specific baculovirus, H. armigera nucleopolyhedroviruses (HaSNPV) is used as a commercial biopesticide to control this pest. To improve the pesticidal properties, HaSNPV has been genetically engineered by both deleting the ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase (egt) gene from its genome (recombinant HaSNPV-EGTD) and incorporating an insect-selective toxin gene from the scorpion Androctonus australis (AaIT) (recombinant HaSNPV-AaIT). In the field, there was no significant difference among the inactivation rates of the two recombinant HaSNPVs and their parent wild-type, HaSNPV-WT. The inactivation rate of these viruses was significantly different in different years. The average half-life of HaSNPV was 0.57, 0.90 and 0.39 days in 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Inactivation rates correlated well with solar radiation over these years. 相似文献

Transmission plays a central role in the ecology of baculoviruses and the population dynamics of their hosts. Here, we report on the horizontal and vertical transmission dynamics of wild-type Helicoverpa armigera single-nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (HaSNPV-WT) and a genetically modified variant (HaSNPV-AaIT) with enhanced speed of action through the expression of an insect-selective scorpion toxin (AaIT). In caged field plots, horizontal transmission of both HaSNPV variants was greatest when inoculated 3rd instar larvae were used as infectors, transmission was intermediate with 2nd instar infectors and lowest with 1st instar infectors. Transmission was greater at a higher density of infectors (1 per plant) than at a lower density (1 per 4 plants); however, the transmission coefficient (number of new infections per initial infector) was lower at the higher density of infectors than at the lower density. HaSNPV-AaIT exhibited a significantly lower rate of transmission than HaSNPV-WT in the field cages. This was also the case in open field experiments. In the laboratory, the vertical transmission of HaSNPV-AaIT from infected females to offspring of 16.7+/-2.1% was significantly lower than that of HaSNPV-WT (30.9+/-2.9%). Likewise, in the field, vertical transmission of HaSNPV-AaIT (8.4+/-1.1%) was significantly lower than that of HaSNPV-WT (12.6+/-2.0%). The results indicate that the recombinant virus will be transmitted at lower rates in H. armigera populations than the wild-type virus. This may potentially affect negatively its long-term efficacy as compared to wild-type virus, but contributing positively to its biosafety. 相似文献

Virus yield produced by dead larvae of balsam fir sawfly, Neodiprion abietis (Harris) (Hymenoptera: Diprionidae), that had been infected at four different larval stages (second, third, fourth, or fifth instar) with two virus concentrations (10(5) polyhedral inclusion bodies (PIB) /ml or 10(7) PIB/ml), were analyzed and compared to determine the effects of instar and amount of virus inoculum on virus production. The results indicate that both larval stage and inoculation dosage significantly affect virus yield. On average, each dead larva produced 1.36-12.21 x 10(7) PIB, depending upon larval age and virus concentration of inoculation. Although each dead larva produced more PIB when it was inoculated in the fourth or fifth stage, inoculation of these larvae did not result in the highest virus yield because of low larval mortality. In terms of net virus return, third instars would maximize virus yield when they are inoculated with a virus concentration that can cause 95-100% larval mortality. 相似文献

A significant difference was noticed in the yield of polyhedral occlusion bodies (POBs) in various larval instars of H. armigera when three different doses of the nuclear polyhedrosis virus (NPV) were administered. The yield of POBs from a single larva ranged from 0.35 x 10(6) to 25033.33 x 10(6) with a mean of 18422.33 x 10(6) for fourth instar inoculated. Positive correlation existed between larval weight and number of POBs recovered. The regression analysis indicated POBs recovered responded with predictable manner to the weight of different larval instars and the various concentration of virus administered. The medium lethal time increased in the instars of the larva advanced with a minimum of 3.5 and maximum of 8 days in the first and fifth instars respectively. 相似文献

Bollworm responses to release of genetically modified Helicoverpa armigera nucleopolyhedroviruses in cotton 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Helicoverpa armigera single nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (HaSNPV) has been developed as a commercial biopesticide to control the cotton bollworm, H. armigera, in China. The major limitation to a broader application of this virus has been the relative long time to incapacitate the target insect. Two HaSNPV recombinants with improved insecticidal properties were released in bollworm-infested cotton. One recombinant (HaCXW1) lacked the ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase (egt) gene and in another recombinant (HaCXW2), an insect-selective scorpion toxin (AaIT) gene replaced the egt gene. In a cotton field situation H. armigera larvae treated with either HaCXW1 or HaCXW2 were killed faster than larvae in HaSNPV-wt treated plots. Second instar H. armigera larvae, which were collected from HaCXW1 and HaCXW2 treated plots and further reared on artificial diet, showed reduced ST(50) values of 15.3 and 26.3%, respectively, as compared to larvae collected from HaSNPV-wt treated plots. The reduction in consumed leaf area of field collected larvae infected with HaCXW1 and HaCXW2 was approximated 50 and 63%, respectively, as compared to HaSNPV-wt infected larvae at 108 h after treatment. These results suggest that in a cotton field situation the recombinants will be more effective control agents of the cotton bollworm than wild-type HaSNPV. 相似文献

The commercial production of baculovirus insecticides is limited by the need to produce the virus in living insects. The influence of juvenile hormone analogs (JHA) on the growth and survival of Spodoptera exigua larvae placed on treated diet in the fifth instar was examined. Weight increases observed in methoprene- and fenoxycarb-treated larvae were over three-fold greater than that of control insects, whereas other compounds resulted in lower weight gains (pyriproxyfen) or highly variable responses (hydroprene). Approximately 90% and 70% of fenoxycarb and methoprene-treated larvae, respectively, molted to a supernumerary sixth instar and attained a final weight at 8–10 days post-treatment that was approximately double the maximum weight observed in control larvae. Inoculation of fenoxycarb and methoprene-treated sixth instars with a nucleopolyhedrovirus (SeMNPV) resulted in 2.4- or 2.9-fold increases in final weights, compared to control larvae inoculated in the fifth instar. The total yield of SeMNPV occlusion bodies (OBs) per larva was 2.7- and 2.9-fold greater in fenoxycarb- and methoprene-treated larvae, respectively, compared to fifth instar controls. A significant but small increase in the yield of OBs/mg larval weight was observed in fenoxycarb-treated insects but not in the methoprene treatment. The LC50 value of OBs harvested from fenoxycarb-treated insects was slightly higher than that of OBs from control insects, whereas no such difference was observed in OBs from methoprene-treated insects. We conclude that appropriate use of JHA technology is likely to provide considerable benefits for the mass production of baculoviruses. 相似文献

1. Ontogenetic shifts in predator behaviour can affect the assessment of food‐web structure and the development of predator–prey models. Therefore, it is important to establish if the functional response and interference interactions differ between life‐stages. These hypotheses were tested by (i) comparing the functional response of second, third, fourth and fifth larval instars of Rhyacophila dorsalis, using three stream tanks with one Rhyacophila larva per tank and one of 10 prey densities between 20 and 200 larvae of Chironomus sp.; (ii) using other experiments to assess interference within instars (two to five larvae of the same instar per tank), and between pairs of different instars (one, two or three larvae per instar; total predator densities of two, four or six larvae per tank). 2. The first hypothesis was supported. The number of prey eaten by each instar increased with prey density, the relationship being described by a type II model. The curvilinear response was stronger for fourth and fifth instars than for second and third instars. Mean handling time did not change significantly with prey density, and increased with decreasing instar number from 169 s for fifth instars to 200 s for second instars. Attack rate decreased progressively with decreasing instar number. Handling time varied considerably for each predator–prey encounter, but was normally distributed for each predator instar. Variations in attack rate and handling time were related to differences in activity between instars, fourth and fifth instars being more active and aggressive than second and third instars, and having a higher food intake. 3. The second hypothesis was partially supported. In the interference experiments between larvae of the same instar or different instars, mean handling time did not change significantly with increasing predator density, and attack rate did not change for second and third instars but decreased curvilinearly for fourth and fifth instars. Interference between some instars could not be studied because insufficient second instars were available at the same time as fourth and fifth instars, and most third instars were eaten by fourth and fifth instars in the experiments. Prey capture always decreased with decreasing attack rate. Therefore, interference reduced prey consumption in fourth and fifth instars, but not in second and third instars. The varying feeding responses of different instars should be taken into account when assessing their role in predator–prey relationships in the field. 相似文献

Apophua simplicipes (Cresson) (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) is a common parasitoid of the oblique banded leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in organically managed apple orchards in the southern interior of British Columbia, Canada. The biological characteristics of a laboratory colony of A. simplicipes were studied. When held at 15 and 25°C and provided with honey water, individual females survived an average of 60.6±6.1 and 29.8±4.7 days, oviposited 196.7±50.7 and 326.6±51.3 eggs and parasitized a total of 163.4±40.4 and 229.4±35.8 hosts, respectively. Females oviposited into first through fourth instar oblique banded leafrollers, with significantly more parasitism occurring in the first two instars compared to the third and fourth instars. No parasitoid larvae survived past the first larval stage in parasitized fourth instar hosts. Apophua simplicipes did not parasitize larvae of three-lined leafroller, Pandemis limitata (Robinson) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) which is sympatric with oblique banded leafrollers in orchards in the southern interior of British Columbia. Female predation and host feeding from wounds on early instars of both leafroller species was observed under laboratory conditions. In addition, early instar hosts exited diet feeding sites in response to the probing activity of the ovipositing wasps. A similar escape reaction in the orchard may cause a leafroller larva to move away from its feeding site, making it more vulnerable to predation or movement off the tree. Apophua simplicipes larvae emerged from fifth and sixth instar hosts. Parasitized oblique banded leafroller hosts consumed significantly less meridic diet than unparasitized female larvae from fifth instar through to parasitoid emergence or leafroller pupation. Our laboratory results suggest that A. simplicipes may reduce field populations of oblique banded leafroller and decrease pest feeding damage. 相似文献

The susceptibility of third instar Helicoverpa armigera to seven strains of three entomopathogenic fungal species, i.e. Metarhizium anisopliae, Beauveria bassiana and Paecilomyces fumosoroseus, was tested under laboratory conditions using the larval immersion method. High efficacies ranging from 68 to 100% corrected mortality were recorded with more profound effects in treatments with B. bassiana and P. fumosoroseus strains. The median lethal concentration (LC50) for L3 was 6.0×105 in M. anisopliae 79, 1.5×105 in B. bassiana 124 and 4.2×104 in P. fumosoroseus 14. These three strains were further used to characterize the age-dependent mortality of different larval stages (L2-L5) and the effect against pupae of H. armigera. Larval stages did not differ in their mortality but differed i in median lethal time, with shorter values recorded in the second instar. Tested fungi also caused a high reduction between 74.4 and 100% in the emergence of pupae using the soil inoculation method and the pupal immersion technique. All three fungal species, especially P. fumosoroseus, have a high potential for biocontrol of H. armigera larvae and also as a soil treatment targeting the pupae. 相似文献

The susceptibility of Spodoptera litura to SlMNPV infection was markedly affected by phyto-chemicals ingested during the acquisition of viral inoculum on foliage of tomato and cauliflower. The LD50 values computed for second, third and fourth instar larvae assayed on tomato leaves were 254, 819 and 23395 PIBs/larva, respectively whereas, it was 326, 1719 and 43843 PIBs/larva for respective instars when assayed on cauliflower leaves. Thus LD50 values for second, third and fourth instar larvae were 1.28-, 2.09- and 1.87- fold lower, respectively in tomato leaves. Similarly, LT50 values for second, third and fourth instar larvae assayed on tomato leaves were 7.1 and 7.5 days, respectively at inoculum dose of 2.7×104 PIBs/larva whereas, it was 7.7 and 8.0 days for respective instars when assayed on cauliflower leaves at same inoculum. This result also showed that the S. litura were more susceptible on tomato leaves in comparison to cauliflower leaves as the time required for mortality was lower in tomato leaves. The possible biochemical bases for differential level of mortality of S. litura larvae on tomato and cauliflower crops needs to be investigated. 相似文献

Deletion of the ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase gene (egt) from the Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV) genome increases the speed of killing of this virus (D. R. O'Reilly and L. K. Miller, Bio/Technology 9:1086-1089, 1991). Second-instar Spodoptera exigua larvae are killed more rapidly by the egt deletion mutant of AcNPV than by wild-type AcNPV. Unlike wild-type AcNPV-infected larvae, larvae infected with an egt deletion mutant molt and resume feeding as mock-infected larvae do. Wild-type AcNPV and egt deletion mutant recombinants marked with a lacZ gene were used to study their pathogenesis in insects. Histopathological investigation revealed that early degeneration of the Malpighian tubules, not the molting per se, may be the cause of this increased speed of killing by AcNPV. 相似文献

Abstract: The larval parasitoid, Campoplex dubitator (Hym.,: Ichneumonidae), is under consideration as an agent for classical biological control of cherry bark tortrix (CBT), Enarmonia formosana (Lep.,: Tortricidae), in North America. A comprehensive risk analysis of the candidate agent will require prosperous cultures of both the pest and its parasitoid. We present a rearing method for small-scale production of both species using a bean-based artificial diet, with additional information on the reproductive biology of C. dubitator . Based on estimated survivorship probabilities, a CBT egg had a 70% chance of developing completely to the adult stage under this system. The success of parasitism, however, was very dependent on the instar of the CBT host larva at the time of oviposition. All parasitised first instar larvae died shortly after the attack, rendering them unsuitable for oviposition, while 50% of parasitised second instar larvae died prematurely. In contrast, early mortality was 15–30% for larvae parasitised in the third to fifth instars. Regardless of the instar at oviposition, approximately 90% of the surviving hosts yielded parasitoids, showing a high acceptance by C. dubitator of second to fifth instars for oviposition. 相似文献

We studied how biologically relevant trace metals (i.e., micronutrients) in the hemolymph of larval Heliothis virescens and Helicoverpa zea (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) changed in response to per os baculovirus infection, larval development, and injection of heat-killed bacteria. Concentrations of hemolymph Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Mo, Ni, and Zn were measured using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. H. virescens larvae exhibited greater fluctuations in hemolymph trace metal levels in response to baculovirus infection and development than did H. zea larvae. H. zea single nucleopolyhedrosis virus infection significantly altered the levels of Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Mo, and Zn in fourth instar H. virescens larvae. Conversely, in fifth instar H. virescens and both H. zea instar infections, no metal levels were significantly different between infected and uninfected larvae. In fourth instar H. virescens hemolymph, Cu, Fe, Mo, and Zn increased during development. Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Mo, and Zn levels changed significantly during development in fifth instar H. virescens as well as both H. zea instars. Based on this analysis, metals were identified whose levels changed during development in both species and during the immune response of H. virescens larvae. 相似文献

Genetic engineering of Helicoverpa armigera single-nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus as an improved pesticide 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

The Helicoverpa armigera single-nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (HearNPV) has been registered and is commercially produced in China as a biopesticide to control the bollworm in cotton. However, the virus has a relatively slow speed of action. To improve its efficacy, recombinant HearNPVs were generated by deleting the ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase (egt) gene (HaCXW1 and HaLM2) or by inserting the insect-specific toxin gene AaIT in the egt locus (HaCXW2) of HearNPV using conventional recombination strategies in insect cell culture. The various recombinants remained genetically stable when cultured in HzAM1 insect cells. Bioassay data showed a significant reduction in the time required for all HearNPV recombinants to kill second instar H. armigera larvae. The LT(50) of the egt deletion recombinants HaCXW1 and HaLM2 was about 27% faster than that of wild-type HearNPV. The largest reduction in LT(50) was achieved by inserting the gene for the insect-specific neurotoxin, AaIT, in the egt locus, giving a reduction in LT(50) of 32% compared to wild-type HearNPV. The ability to genetically improve the properties of HearNPV as a biopesticide provides a further opportunity to develop this virus into a commercially viable product to control the bollworm in China. 相似文献
