棉铃虫温度依赖的生长发育及雌性先熟现象

在昆虫中,雄虫先于雌虫羽化,称为雄虫先熟现象,而雌虫先于雄虫羽化,称为雌虫先熟现象。前者最为普遍,后者报道较少。本试验在20、22和25℃下对棉铃虫Helicoverpa armigera（Hilbner）的生长发育进行了详细的研究。结果显示发育历期随温度的升高而缩短,雌雄间发育历期有着显著的差异,各个温度下雌虫均比雄虫先羽化,表明棉铃虫属于雌性先熟种类,而这种差异主要是由于雌虫的蛹期较短所致。幼虫发育历期与蛹重呈显著的正相关性。     

Trade-offs between melanisation and life-history traits in Helicoverpa armigera

Abstract.  1. Previously we established a homozygous melanic strain (JBM) with 16 black pupae spontaneously occurring within a laboratory population (JBW) of Helicoverpa armigera and demonstrated that the melanisation is controlled by a single recessive autosomal gene.
2. Data obtained indicate that the melanisation is globally expressed in the pupal and adult stages (except for the body hairs of adults) but not in the egg and larval stages. No differences in body colour can be found between the melanic JBM and the wild-type JBW strains before the metamorphic pupation moult. After pupation, the JBM pupae gradually blacken, whereas the wild-type JBW pupae gradually turn brown, indicating that the biosynthetic steps leading to brown pigments are shut off in the JBM strain. In the adult stage, wings are darker and hairs on the abdomen and tergum are lighter in the melanic moths than in the wild-type individuals.
3. Life-table experiments reveal that the melanism is associated with slower development in all life stages, smaller body weight, lower mating rate and fecundity, less mating time, and accordingly, lower net reproduction rate and population trend index.
4. Single pair inbreeding and reciprocal crosses show that the mating rate is much lower in the inter-strain crosses than in the intra-strain crosses, indicating the presence of mating preference for its own colour morph and the presence to some degree of reproductive isolation between the two colour morphs.     

棉铃虫脑在控制滞育中的作用

脑摘除试验表明: 棉铃虫蛹的初期发育（化蛹后12 h 内）受脑的控制;化蛹12 h后的滞育蛹发育与脑无关。注射活性脑的匀浆液可阻止部分注定滞育的预蛹和化蛹后1～2天的蛹进入滞育状态,说明滞育的个体很有可能从预蛹期开始其脑的活性就已降低。     

棉铃虫幼虫对人类呈味物质的取食反应

利用叶碟法在室内测定了棉铃虫对人类酸、甜、苦、咸4种基本呈味物质和麻、辣味2种植物提取物的取食反应。正交试验结果表明,棉铃虫幼虫对用甜味、苦味和辣味物质(蔗糖、奎宁和辣椒提取物)处理过的烟叶取食选择率较高,对这3种呈味物质表现出有较好的适应性;而幼虫对咸味、酸味和麻味物质(氯化钠、柠檬酸和花椒提取物)处理过的烟叶取食量较少,这3种呈味物质表现出较强的拒食活性。在选择性条件下,幼虫的取食量与花椒提取物剂量显著相关;而在非选择性条件下,幼虫的取食量与氯化钠剂量显著相关。     

不同龄期棉铃虫用氰戊菊酯汰选对其抗性发展的影响

利用中抗(15.06倍)品系,室内用氰戊菊酯对棉铃虫Helicoverpa armigera初孵至4龄幼虫分别进行连续汰选,选育9代后,以3龄幼虫汰选的抗性发展最快（31.5倍）, 其次是4龄、2龄幼虫汰选的品系（分别增加25.2倍和14.5倍）,用初孵幼虫汰选的抗性发展最慢（10.2倍）。抗性现实遗传力的测定表明,3龄幼虫汰选的抗性现实遗传力（0.4419）显著大于初孵幼虫的（0.2346）。代谢酶抑制剂的增效实验发现,磷酸三苯酯(TPP)对各品系棉铃虫均无明显增效作用。而增效醚(PBO)对高龄幼虫汰选的品系的增效作用比低龄幼虫汰选的品系增效作用强。测定初孵和3龄幼虫汰选品系试虫的击倒抗性发现,初孵幼虫汰选品系的抗性增加倍数（10.2）与击倒抗性增加的倍数（10.5）相似,而3龄幼虫汰选的抗性增加倍数（31.5）显著高于击倒抗性增加的倍数（19.9）。认为初孵幼虫期多功能氧化酶（MFO）表达不完全,用药主要是筛选击倒抗性,而高龄幼虫期用药则会同时筛选击倒抗性和MFO参与的代谢抗性。因而初孵幼虫期用药抗性发展缓慢。生产上不仅可以提高药剂的防效,同时可以延缓抗性的发展。

Genetics of Indoxacarb resistance in Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner)

The present investigation was done with the aim of studying the genetics of Indoxacarb resistance. Selection of Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) with Indoxacarb was done for eight generations to develop resistance. Reciprocal crosses between resistant and susceptible populations were made to understand the population genetics of Indoxacarb resistance in H. armigera . Generation-wise selection with Indoxacarb was evaluated for resistance development in H. armigera . The LC₅₀ of Indoxacarb was 2.81 p.p.m. for the first selected generation, and it increased to 272.55 p.p.m. after eight selected generations, which is a 1238.86-fold resistance compared to the susceptible strain. The estimated realized heritability (h²) after eight generations of selection with Indoxacarb was 0.45. The number of generations required for a tenfold increase in LC₅₀ (1/R) was estimated to be 2.59. The response to Indoxacarb selection in H. armigera was 0.39, the estimated selection differential (S) was 0.87, and the phenotypic standard deviation (σp) was 0.03. Reciprocal crosses between Indoxacarb resistant and susceptible strains revealed that the inheritance of Indoxacarb resistance was autosomal: neither maternal effect nor linkage was evident. The values of D_LC (0.10 and 0.09) indicated completely recessive inheritance of Indoxacarb resistance.     

Feeding behaviour of Helicoverpa armigera larvae on insect-resistant transgenic cotton and non-transgenic cotton

Abstract: Feeding behaviour of Helicoverpa armigera Hübner (Lep.; Noctuidae) larvae on non‐transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.), Zhong 30, and transgenic cowpea trypsin inhibitor (CpTI)‐Bt cotton, SGK 321, and non‐transgenic cotton, Shiyuan 321, was investigated in both choice tests and no‐choice tests. The results of choice tests suggested that neonates have the ability to detect and avoid transgenic cotton. In the choice tests of neonates with both transgenic and non‐transgenic cotton leaves, a significantly greater proportion of larvae and higher consumption were observed on non‐transgenic cotton than on the transgenic Bt or CpTI‐Bt cotton. In the choice tests with leaves of two transgenic cotton lines, the proportion of neonates on leaf discs of the two lines was not significantly different, but there was significantly higher consumption on CpTI‐Bt transgenic cotton than that on Bt transgenic cotton. In addition, significantly more neonates were found away from the leaf discs, lower consumption and higher mortality were achieved in the choice test with two transgenic cotton leaves than in the choice tests containing non‐transgenic cotton leaves. Leaves and buds were examined in choice tests of fourth instars. It appeared that fourth instars were found in equal numbers on transgenic and non‐transgenic cotton, except when larvae were exposed to leaves for 3 h. However, the total consumption on transgenic cotton was lower than that of the non‐transgenic cotton, so fourth instars may still have the capacity to detect transgenic cotton and reduce feeding on it, although they showed no preference on either transgenic or non‐transgenic cotton. More larvae were found off diet in the treatments with leaves than that of buds, and the number of injured leaf discs by per fourth instar was significantly higher than that of buds in choice tests, suggesting that leaf is a less preferred organ for H. armigera larvae, elicited more larval movements. Similarly, in no‐choice tests of fifth instars, significantly fewer feeding time and more moving time occurred on leaf than that of bud, boll and petal. When cotton line was considered, compared with non‐transgenic cotton, significantly lower feeding time and higher resting time occurred on the two transgenic cottons. Overall, H. armigera larvae have the ability to detect the transgenic Bt and CpTI‐Bt cottons or the less preferred organs and selectively feed more on the non‐transgenic cotton or the preferred organs, especially the neonates, which have a high capacity for avoiding transgenic cotton.

不同食料植物对棉铃虫生长发育和繁殖的影响

报道了棉花、烟草、番茄和辣椒4种植物对棉铃虫Helicoverpa armigera生长发育和繁殖的影响。棉铃虫成虫喜欢在番茄上产卵,在辣椒上的着卵量最少。初孵幼虫喜选食嫩棉叶,选食辣椒嫩叶的虫数最少。4组幼虫取食嫩叶时的平均相对生长速率都有显著差异,顺序为棉叶组>烟叶组>番茄叶组>辣椒叶组。幼虫存活率以取食棉花时最高,取食番茄时最低。棉花组成虫的产卵量最高,烟草组的产卵量最低。取食棉花的棉铃虫种群增长的速度约为取食番茄时的14倍。6龄幼虫能有效利用和转化棉铃、烟草蒴果、辣椒果实,而对番茄果实的利用和转化效率较低。棉铃虫可分别以这4种植物的不同器官为食完成世代循环。其中,棉花是最适宜的寄主,辣椒和番茄是较不适宜的寄主。     

Changes in feeding habit as caterpillars grow

Abstract.

• 1 200 of 1137 species of British microlepidoptera make a single marked change in feeding habit as they grow.
• 2 Most numerous are species that change from leaf mining to one of case bearing, spinning, tying and rolling or concealed feeding, and species that change from concealed feeding to case bearing or spinning, tying and rolling.
• 3 Although in some instances numbers of closely related species make similar changes in behaviour, most changes observed are scattered among subfamilies.
• 4 Leaf miners have considerably smaller adults than concealed feeders, which themselves are smaller than external feeders and spinners, tiers and rollers. When case bearers are excluded from the analyses, species that remain as leaf miners or concealed feeders throughout larval development are on average smaller as adults than those that start out with these feeding habits but later change.
• 5 We suggest a number of reasons why larvae might make such fundamental switches.
