Resistance of plants to arthropods may be lost at low or high temperatures. I tested whether the relative resistance of five genotypes of soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., to three isolates of the soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura, was influenced by three temperatures, 14, 21 and 28°C, in no‐choice tests in the laboratory. The interaction between temperature and the genotype of soybean influenced the population sizes of two isolates of A. glycines. Two genotypes of soybean, LD05‐16611 and PI 567597C, which usually are resistant to isolate 1 and 3, became susceptible: LD05‐16611 at the low temperature and PI 567597C at the high temperature. The genotypes PI 200538 and PI 567541B usually are susceptible to isolate 3 but were resistant at 21 and 28°C. I can only speculate as to the reason why temperature influences resistance of some genotypes of soybean to A. glycines: A. glycines may be directly influenced by temperature or indirectly influenced by changes in the host plant. Nevertheless, my results suggest that temperature may be one factor that influences the expression of resistance of soybean to A. glycines, so genotypes of soybean should be screened for resistance to the aphid at multiple temperatures.  相似文献

Adult females of the ovoviviparous Argentinian cockroach, Blaptica dubia, were repeatedly treated with either 100?μg methoprene or 100?μg pyriproxyfen in 5?μL acetone either during the first vitellogenic cycle or during the period of gestation. Treatment during the first vitellogenic cycle (days 2–20 of adult life) did not inhibit vitellogenesis and oocyte growth, but prevented the formation of an ootheca. This was accompanied with a significant reduction of the titer of juvenile hormone (JH) III and an increased amount of ecdysone (E) and 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) in the haemolymph of the animals. Treatment of adult females during the period of gestation (days 30–70) resulted in a complete degradation and resorption of the ootheca and induced another vitellogenic cycle. Again, this was associated with a decrease in haemolymph JH III titer, but an increase in the concentrations of free ecdysteroids.  相似文献

大豆蚜对环境的适应及对大豆产量的影响   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
2009-2010年,以辽东山区大豆主产区岫岩县作为试验点,系统调查了大豆蚜Aphis glycines Matsumura正常型蚜和小型蚜的种群动态,研究了蜡蚧轮枝菌Verticillium lecanii(Zimmerman)Viegas、豆柄瘤蚜茧蜂Lysiphlebus fabarum Marshall、异色瓢虫Harmonia axyridis(Pallas)对大豆蚜正常型蚜和小型蚜的寄生与捕食作用;另外,也研究了降雨对小型蚜和正常型蚜的冲刷作用,以及小型蚜对大豆产量的影响等。研究结果表明,7月上中旬为大豆蚜小型蚜发生初期,7月下旬—8月上旬为小型蚜发生高峰期,2010年小型蚜平均蚜量达10000头/百株以上。此外,通过比较大豆蚜正常型蚜和小型蚜排蜜量,发现正常型蚜与小型蚜在30min内的排蜜频率差异极其显著,正常型蚜排蜜次数明显多于小型蚜。蜡蚧轮枝菌对大豆蚜小型蚜的侵染较正常型低,前者被侵染率低于3%,后者被侵染率高达25%。豆柄瘤蚜茧蜂对正常型蚜的寄生率较小型蚜高,寄生率分别为43.41%和0.58%。异色瓢虫3龄幼虫对正常型蚜和小型蚜的捕食率分别为80.24%和36.36%。降雨对小型蚜冲刷作用明显低于正常型蚜。最后,通过对单株蚜量与单株产量进行单因素方差分析,结果表明,单株小型蚜量对产量影响不显著(F=0.378;df=7,1;P>0.05)。上述研究为明确大豆蚜的发生与为害、小型蚜适应环境的生存机制以及自然天敌对大豆蚜的田间控制作用,进而为大豆蚜的可持续控制提供理论依据。  相似文献

Epizootics caused by insect pathogens sometimes occur over wide areas and result in millions of infected insects. Naturally infected insects can be considered a natural resource for harvesting insect pathogens. We developed methods to mass harvest the fungal pathogen Neozygites fresenii (Entomophthorales: Neozygitaceae) from epizootics in Aphis gossypii (Homoptera: Aphididae) in a commercial cotton field in Arkansas. A total of 30,722 aphids infected with N. fresenii in the mature hyphal body or early conidiophore stages were harvested, dried, and frozen. Three desiccants were compared: silica gel, dry rock salt, and wet rock salt. Silica gel was the superior material because it more rapidly and thoroughly dried cotton leaves and aphids. Using this method a mean of 193.4 infected aphids could be harvested per hour from cotton leaves dried over silica gel. The quality of harvested infected aphids was high and resulted in a mean of 70.4% sporulation from infected aphids harvested from the silica gel desiccant.  相似文献

Female Bicyclus anynana butterflies given pyriproxyfen, a mimic of juvenile hormone, exhibited increased egg‐laying rates and early fecundity, but reduced longevity compared with control animals. Thus, pyriproxyfen application yielded antagonistic effects on different components of fitness, possibly demonstrating a juvenile hormone‐mediated trade‐off between present and future reproduction. Lifetime fecundity and egg size, however, showed no consistent response to pyriproxyfen, with lifetime fecundity being increased or decreased and egg size being reduced in one out of four experiments only. Females were most sensitive to pyriproxyfen around the onset of oviposition, coinciding with naturally increasing juvenile hormone titers in other Lepidoptera. Amounts between 1 and 10 µg pyriproxyfen were found to be effective, with, however, pronounced differences among experiments. This is attributed to differences in assay conditions. High pyriproxyfen concentrations (100 µg) as well as repeated applications of smaller amounts did not affect reproductive traits, but tended to reduce longevity.  相似文献

Antibiosis of eight soybean cultivars to three clones of soybean aphids (Aphis glycines Matsumura) was evaluated using both soybean sprouts and leaflets. Overall, the performance of soybean aphid was better on sprouts than on leaflets. We confirmed previous reports that Dowling and Jackson cultivars exhibited strong resistance to a clone of soybean aphids from the US, but not to either Japanese or Indonesian clones. The USA clone had delayed development, fewer offspring, and low emergence rates on these two cultivars. However, abnormal offspring were only investigated on the Tachinagaha cultivar. We confirmed that Bay and Himeshirazu cultivars were strongly resistant to the Japanese aphid clone; aphids produced fewer offspring and deformed offspring on Bay and had delayed development and a low rate of emergence on Himeshirazu. None of the eight soybean cultivars were resistant to the Indonesian clone, although abnormal offspring were produced on Jackson, Adams, and Tachinagaha cultivars. These data suggest that there are genetic differences among the three tested clones of soybean aphid and that the characteristics of local soybean aphid clones must be considered when developing resistant soybean cultivars for a given geographic area.  相似文献

Three mannose-binding lectins were assayed in artificial diets for their toxic and growth-inhibitory effects on nymphal development of the peach-potato aphid Myzus persicae. The snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis) lectin GNA was the most toxic, with an induced nymphal mortality of 42% at 1500 g ml–1 (30 M) and an IC50 (50% growth inhibition) of 630 g ml–1 (13 M). The daffodil (Narcissus pseudonarcissus) lectin NPA and a garlic (Allium sativum) lectin ASA induced no significant mortality in the range 10–1500 g ml–1, but did result in growth inhibition of 59% (NPA) and 26% (ASA) at 1500 g ml–1 (40 M for NPA, 63 M for ASA). All three lectins were responsible for a slight but significant growth stimulation when ingested at 10 g ml–1, reaching +26%, +18% and +11% over the control values for the garlic lectin, the daffodil lectin and the snowdrop lectin, respectively. GNA, as well as the glucose/mannose binding lectin Concanavalin A, were also provided at sublethal doses throughout the life cycle of the aphids, and effects on adult performance were monitored. Adult survival was not significantly altered, but both lectins adversely affected total fecundity and the dynamics of reproduction, resulting in significant reduction in calculated r ms (population intrinsic rate of natural increase) on lectin-containing diets. These effects are discussed in relation to the use of transgenic plants expressing these toxic lectins for potential control of aphid populations.  相似文献

The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines (Matsumura), is native to eastern Asia and has recently invaded North America, where it is currently the most important insect pest of soybeans. The soybean aphid has spread rapidly within North America, presumably through a combination of active and passive (wind-aided) flight. Here, we studied the active flight potential of A. glycines under a range of environmental conditions using an aphid flight mill. Winged (alate) A. glycines were tested on a specially designed 32-channel, computer-monitored flight mill system. Aphids that were 12-24 h old exhibited the strongest flight behavior, with average flight durations of 3.3-4.1 h, which represented flight distances of 4.6-5.1 km. After the age of 72 h, A. glycines flight performance rapidly declined. The optimum temperature range for flight was 16-28 degrees C, whereas optimum relative humidity was 75%. Our findings show that A. glycines posseses a fairly strong active flight aptitude (ability and inclination) and point to the possibility of flight initiation under a broad range of environmental conditions. These results have the potential to aid forecasting and management protocols for A. glycines at the landscape level.  相似文献

Potato aphid Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Thomas) was found to contain high amounts of o-diphenol oxidase activity. Enzyme activity was largely distributed into the postmitochondrial supernatant from Brij-35 extracted aphids and occurs in a latent form that was activated up to 45-fold by pretreatment with isopropanol. The aphid enzyme has a broad pH optimum near 6, and utilized L-dopa (Km = 1.4 mM, Vmax = 348 nmol/min-mg protein), dopamine, and 4-methylcatechol the best out of the twelve substrates tested. In addition, this activity is a typical copper-dependent oxidase in that it is potently inhibited by phenylthiourea (50% inhibition at 30nM) and other copper chelators, including salicylhydroxamic acid. The above properties are common to most insect tyrosinases. However, the aphid enzyme lacked the o-hydroxylase and laccase components and the optimal activity at higher temperatures that are typical of cuticular tyrosinases of other insects. The high levels of o-diphenol oxidase in aphids compared to other insects is surprising, since the major function associated with these enzymes, that of melanization and sclerotization of cuticle, is of much less importance to aphids. The possibility that aphids use this enzyme to metabolize dietary phenolics is discussed.  相似文献

大豆蚜自然天敌种群动态及其控蚜作用研究   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
2008-2010年间,分别在辽东山区和辽西半干旱丘陵地区设置试验田,采用系统调查的方法,对大豆蚜Aphis glycines Matsumura自然天敌种群动态及控蚜作用进行研究。共鉴定辽宁地区大豆蚜天敌7目、16科、44种,其中优势天敌异色瓢虫Leis axyridis(Pallas)居首位。田间试验结果表明,大豆蚜天敌田间消长表现连续6个阶段,即初见期、波动期、上升期、盛期、下降期和消退期;田间3年平均大豆蚜数量与天敌(天敌单位)总体呈极显著的相关关系,各年度百株蚜量与天敌单位也均呈极显著相关关系。辽东地区天敌跟随紧密并随蚜虫数量变化波动,具有明显的自然控蚜作用。其中,7月11-21日天敌发生盛期与蚜虫高峰期吻合,蚜虫急剧下降;7月下旬后,受高温、多雨、蚜霉菌作用、植株老化等影响,蚜虫种群逐步下降、消退,天敌也陆续迁出豆田。辽西地区天敌迁入豆田比蚜虫晚10~15d,对前期蚜虫控制弱,且天敌峰期滞后蚜虫5d左右,一般年份蚜虫发生较重。  相似文献

In summer 2007, the Asian parasitoid Binodoxys communis (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) was released in North America for control of the exotic soybean aphid, Aphis glycines (Hemiptera: Aphididae). Despite its comparatively narrow host range, releases of B. communis may still constitute a risk to native aphid species. To estimate the risk of exposure of non-target aphids to B. communis, we merged assessments of temporal co-occurrence with projections of spatial overlap between B. communis and three native aphid species, and in-field measurements of the incidence of ecological filters that may protect these aphids from parasitism. Temporal co-occurrence was assessed between A. glycines and native aphids (Aphis asclepiadis, Aphis oestlundi, and Aphis monardae) at four different locations in Minnesota, USA. The degree of temporal overlap depended greatly on location and aphid species, ranging between 0 and 100%. All of the native aphids were tended by multiple species of ants, with overall ant-attendance ranging from 26.1 to 89.6%. During temporal overlap with A. glycines, 53 ± 11% of A. monardae colonies were partly found in flower heads of their host plant, with flowers acting as a physical refuge for this aphid. The extent of geographic overlap between B. communis and native aphids based upon Climex modeling was 17–28% for A. monardae, 13–22% for A. oestlundi, 46–55% for A. asclepiadis and 12–24% for the A. asclepiadis species complex. The estimated overall probability of potential exposure of B. communis on native aphids was relatively low (P = 0.115) for A. oestlundi and high (P = 0.550) for A. asclepiades. Physical and ant-mediated refuges considerably lowered probability of population-level impact on A. monardae, and could lead to substantial reduction of exposure for the other native aphids. These findings are used to make broader statements regarding the ecological safety of current B. communis releases and their potential impact on native aphid species in North America.  相似文献

The product (R) of the weight of the blood meal and the initial weight of the insect is shown to be a reliable predictor of egg production. The egg production efficiency (E), defined as the number of eggs produced per R, has a value characteristic of virgin females, and another, higher, value characteristic of mated females. Topical applications of C18 JH or Altosid to virgin females increase the value of E to the mated level in a fashion which suggests that these compounds act via a trigger mechanism. These compounds do not affect the rate at which oviposition occurs.  相似文献

Biological activity assays with RH 5849 and RH 5992 indicated that both compounds affected growth and development of last-instar larvae ofSpodoptera exigua (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in a dose-dependent manner. Within the first 24 h after treatment by continuously offering leaves dipped in a water solution of ≥50 mg/l RH 5849 and ≥0.5 mg/l RH 5992, symptoms of a prematurely induced larval moult and head capsule apolysis were visible. Intoxicated larvae died shortly afterwards, showing signs of unsuccessful ecdysis. LC50-values of RH 5849 and RH 5992 for fifth-instarS. exigua larvae were 110 and 2.5 mg/l, respectively. Pyriproxyfen alone affected the larval stage and disturbed normal metamorphosis. One supernumerary larval instar occurred occasionally. LC50-value for pyriproxyfen was 1.7 mg/l. Larvae simultaneously treated with RH 5849 or RH 5992 and pyriproxyfen, continued to grow until they attained a size and weight about 2–3 times that of the controls. This growth was accompanied by at least one and sometimes two supernumerary moults. Concerning thein vivo imaginal wing disc growth and development, only in larvae treated with 10 and 50 mg/l RH 5849 or 0.5 mg/l RH 5992, tracheole migration was observed earlier than in the controls. When applying 300 mg/l RH 5849 or 3–7 mg/l RH 5992, the discs remained small and no signs of tracheole migration were observed. In larvae simultaneously treated with RH 5849 or RH 5992 and pyriproxyfen, tracheole migration was not prematurely induced and a pupal cuticle was produced in the discs of larvae, undergoing a supernumerary moult. No clear signs of evagination were observed.  相似文献

ABSTRACT. When offered the choice between a germinating tick bean (summer host) and a detached spindle leaf (winter host) adult gynoparae of Aphis fabae Scop. showed a distinct preference for spindle, as judged by site of larviposition. However, when offered the same alternatives, all four larval instars showed a settling preference for bean. A switch in host preference therefore occurs at or shortly after final (fourth) moult. Fifth instar, supernumerary larvae induced by juvenile hormone (JH I) treatment also preferred bean, indicating that the host preference switch at the fourth moult had been inhibited. Larval/adult intermediate forms produced by JH I treatment, but which were capable of parturition, showed a significant increase in the acceptability of bean as a larviposition site. Acceptability was proportional to the degree of juvenilization. Thus, although larviposition is an adult prerogative, JH I can influence the preferred site. This may, however, be an indirect effect which reflects a juvenilized settling preference.  相似文献

A field population of Scymnus louisianae Chapin (Coccinellidae) was found attacking soybean aphids, Apis glycines Matsumura (Aphidae), a pest recently introduced into Kentucky. This coccinellid had not previously been found in Kentucky. A greenhouse population of S. louisianae was established and its predation on A. glycines studied under laboratory conditions. Total time to develop from egg to adult was about 20 d. About 70% of immatures survived to adulthood and they consumed approximately 100 aphid nymphs per beetle larva during the beetle's four larval instars. Adults lived for an average of 47 d (mated males) and 63 d (mated females) and, during their total adult lifetime, mated males consumed an average of 665 nymphs and mated females consumed 1261 nymphs. All developmental times and predation rates were comparable to those reported for other aphidophagous Scymnus spp. which, in conjunction with reports that Scymnus spp. are effective predators of cotton aphids, Aphis gossypii Glover, suggests that S. louisianae is a potentially important predator of A. glycines in the southern United States.  相似文献

Head lettuce field plantings were artificially infested with apterous adults of the green peach aphid, Myzus persicae (Sulzer). Significantly greater aphid fecundity was demonstrated on plants grown through aluminum-coated construction paper than on plants grown on bare soil. Higher temperatures and host-plant physiology were factors modified by the mulch, and could have resulted in larger aphid populations on plants grown over a reflective surface as the season progressed. Faster plant growth and a significantly larger yield per head of lettuce also resulted from the use of the aluminum mulch. The incidence of a leafhopper-borne plant disease, aster yellows, was significantly reduced on head lettuce in the aluminum mulch plots.
Résumé Des cultures de laitue ont été artificiellement contaminées avec des adultes aptères de Myzus persicae. La fécondité a été significativement augmentée sur les plantes poussant sur un sol recouvert par un voile d'aluminium, comparées à celles poussant sur un sol nu. Cette augmentation pourrait entrainer des populations de pucerons de plus en plus importantes, au fur et à mesure de l'avancement de la saison, sur les plantes poussant au dessus d'une surface fortement réfléchissante. L'utilisation du voile d'aluminium a provoqué simultanément une accélération de la croissance et une augmentation des rendements de laitue. Ces résultats semblent dus à une augmentation de la température diurne, à une meilleure conservation de l'humidité et à une plus forte réflexion de la lumière lorsqu'il y a présence de voile d'aluminium. Par aulleurs, les dégâts provoqués sur feuilles par les germes pathogénes transmis par les Cicadelles delles sont significativement plus rares sur sol couvert de voile d'aluminium.

Abstract

Seasonal flight patterns of the bluegreen aphid (BGA), Acyrthosiphon kondoi Shinji (Homoptera: Aphididae) were studied. BGA had flight peaks twice a year in spring and autumn, BGA flight appeared to be diurnal. The main period of activity extended from 5 am to 7.30 pm.

The accumulated spring and autumn flight peaks lasted 422 Degree Days (DD) and 351 DD (2.9 and 2.4 BGA generations) respectively. Accumulated DD between the median of spring and autumn flights, and the autumn and following spring flight, was 1667 and 1676 DD; this corresponds to 11.5 and 11.6 BGA generations respectively. The use of DD for predicting BGA flight is discussed.  相似文献

Abstract

Sampling of bluegreen lucerne aphid showed that the most efficient method differs according to the time of year and the height of the lucerne. In late June 1976, when the lucerne was short (mean height 3.6 cm), an area removal sample of 700 cm2 was more efficient to achieve a 10% degree of precision (half-width of a confidence limit) than area samples of 80 and 300 cm2, suction sampling of the same areas, and stem sampling. In early spring (lucerne height 11.7 cm) the 80 cm2 area removal sample was the most efficient. Just before the second hay cut (late January), the length of lucerne stems (62.5 cm) precluded use of any area removal technique; stem samples were most efficient. The cost in time was fuliy considered in sampling method comparisons. Possible differences with population density were not considered.  相似文献
