取食臭椿不同部位对沟眶象和臭椿沟眶象成虫消化解毒酶的影响

沟眶象Eucryptorrhynchus scrobiculatus和臭椿沟眶象E.brandti是取食单一寄主臭椿Ailanthus altissima不同部位的钻蛀性害虫。二者成虫羽化后交配之前均需补充营养,且取食臭椿不同部位(叶柄、1年生枝、2～3年生枝、主干)对其雌成虫生殖系统发育的影响差异显著。就臭椿沟眶象雌成虫而言,只有取食主干才能够产卵;而对沟眶象雌成虫来说,则只有取食2～3年生枝的无法产卵。本研究使用臭椿的4种不同部位(叶柄、1年生枝、2～3年生枝、主干)饲喂这两种象甲成虫,利用ELISA试剂盒测定两种象甲的3种解毒酶(谷胱甘肽转移酶、羧酸酯酶和细胞色素P450)和3种消化酶(胰蛋白酶、淀粉酶、脂肪酶)的酶活性。结果表明,两种象甲中后肠的6种酶活性在取食不同寄主部位后发生显著性差异。其中,臭椿沟眶象雌成虫取食主干显著降低其中后肠的CarE酶活性,沟眶象雌成虫取食2～3年生枝能显著提高中后肠的CarE酶活性,同时降低中后肠AMY酶活性。本文明确了寄主植物不同部位对这两种象甲成虫中后肠消化解毒酶活性的影响,分析了两种象甲初羽化雌成虫补充营养造成生殖系统发育差异的原因,对后续...     

宁夏灵武市沟眶象发生特点

系统调查沟眶象Eucryptorrhynchus chinensis(Olivier)在宁夏灵武市的发生情况和特点发现:沟眶象以成虫和幼虫在土壤中越冬,成虫有2个发生高峰期,越冬结束后以成虫越冬的沟眶象出土出现第1个高峰期,以幼虫越冬的沟眶象经化蛹羽化出土出现第2个高峰期;幼虫危害臭椿根部形成的瘤状物可以作为鉴别沟眶象危害的特征;沟眶象幼虫在土壤中垂直分布范围集中在0～45 cm深土层,约占80%;成虫出土孔集中在距臭椿树干基部75 cm范围内,占88%。据此建议土壤施药化学防治沟眶象时,施药深度不宜低于45 cm,施药点距树干基部水平距离不得少于75 cm,且树周各个方向均需施药。每年10月末沟眶象开始"入土"、翌年4月末开始"出土",在沟眶象"入土"结束后但未冻土之前的11中旬和土壤解冻之后但尚未"出土"前的4月中旬,这两个时期土壤施药防治效果较好;防治沟眶象的同时,还应适时采取打孔注药、熏蒸等措施防治臭椿(Ailanthus altissima(Mill.)Swingle)树干内的臭椿沟眶象Eucryptorrhynchus brandti(Harold)。     

臭椿沟眶象幼虫消化道解剖方法

臭椿沟眶象幼虫消化道柔软脆弱,尤其是1龄与2龄幼虫的消化道纤细易断,解剖难度较大。本文介绍了臭椿沟眶象幼虫消化道的具体解剖方法,根据不同龄期幼虫脂肪含量与消化道韧性差异,对1-2龄和3-7龄幼虫,分别使用纵切法和剥离法解剖。结果表明:臭椿沟眶象幼虫消化道分为前肠、中肠和后肠。前肠为窄而细的管状,没有明显的嗉囊和前胃。中肠分为2部分,前部膨大,后部为光滑的管状。后肠由回肠和直肠组成。马氏管6根。这两个方法提高了此幼虫消化道解剖的效率与成功率,希望能为具有体壁柔软、消化道脆弱易损等特点昆虫幼虫的消化道解剖提供借鉴与参考。

沟眶象的生物学特性及行为观察

沟眶象Eucryptorrhynchus chinensis(Olivier)是臭椿林木的主要害虫之一。在宁夏银川地区该虫1年发生1代,世代不整齐,以成、幼虫越冬。卵期7~10d,幼虫共有6龄,化蛹时间为4月下旬至5月和7月下旬至8月上旬,蛹经过10~14d羽化为成虫。成虫主要啃食椿树枝条幼芽和韧皮部,幼虫危害衰弱木,有时危害生长健旺的幼树韧皮部或木质部。成虫具有假死性,喜光,活动高峰在11~17时。雌、雄虫间的单次交配时间可持续10~20min;有重复交配现象,交配的时间间隔大约是20~40min;交配结束后,雄虫仍伏于雌虫背上达20~30min。雌虫蛀孔产卵,每产1粒卵约需15min左右,每雌平均产卵40粒左右。

沟眶象转录组微卫星特征分析

本研究基于高通量测序获得的沟眶象Eucryptorrhynchus chinensis(Olivier)转录组数据,采用MISA(Micro Satellite)软件对其简单序列重复(simple sequence repeat,SSR)位点进行了高通量发掘。对筛选得到的1 kb以上的Unigene(17590条,占Unigene总数的26.98%)进行了SSR分析,结果发现含SSR的序列有1665条,共发现1823个SSR,平均32.52 kb出现一个SSR。沟眶象微卫星主要以三碱基重复类型为主(637,34.94%),其次为单碱基重复(576,31.60%)。共发现104种碱基重复基元,所占比例最高的为(A/T)n(30.39%),其次为(AT/AT)n(6.91%)。沟眶象SSR的平均长度为15.74 bp,长度大于20 bp的SSR仅占总数的12.70%。研究还发现沟眶象微卫星出现的频率和其长度呈极显著负相关(P0.01),相关系数为-0.572。研究结果为开发高多态性微卫星引物来进行沟眶象功能基因组学、种群遗传结构、种群遗传多样性等研究奠定了基础。     

Application of a frequency distribution method for determining instars of Eucryptorrhynchus brandti (Coleoptera: curculionidae) from several morphological variables

Eucryptorrhynchus brandti (Harold) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a major pest of Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle (Simaroubaceae), commonly known as tree-of-heaven, and A. altissima var. Qiantouchun in China. It is considered a potential biological control agent for tree-of-heaven in North America. The aim of this study was to use a frequency distribution method to determine the instars of field-collected larvae of E. brandti. We collected larval samples of various sizes from both the field and the laboratory and measured five morphological variables, including antenna spacing, mandible width, head-capsule width, ocellus spacing, and pronotum width. Based on the results of a frequency distribution method and Dyar’s rule, the larvae of E. brandti were divided into seven instars. Of the five variables measured, the width of the head capsule provided the best measurement for determining instar stage. The regression equation between the head-capsule widths and the instar number was y?=?0.324e^0.096x (R²?=?0.970).     

Occurrence and development of Eucryptorrhynchus brandti and E. chinensis (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) on Ailanthus altissima trees subjected to different levels of mechanical damage

Eucryptorrhynchus brandti (Harold) and E. chinensis (Oliver) are herbivores of Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle (tree of heaven) in China. Eucryptorrhynchus brandti has been recommended as a potential biological control agent of A. altissima in North America. In China, the majority of adults of both species were found on tree trunks 0–5 m above the ground, from May to September. In October and November, most adults were found at the base of A. altissima trees. Trees were subjected to different levels of mechanical injury: very low mechanical injury, one to two 0.015 m² bark sections were removed; low, two to four bark sections were removed; moderate, 8 to 22 bark sections removed; high, tree was girdled; and extreme, tree was felled and the remaining stump was sampled. Very low and low mechanical injury trees had very few adult emergence holes with few larvae developing beyond the first or second instar after 29 months. The health of these trees remained good. An increase in adult emergence holes occurred in moderately injured trees that appeared as healthy as very low to low mechanically injured trees. This may indicate that only a small increase in tree stress can increase the adult emergence rate and thus hasten a decline in tree health. Moderate, high and extreme mechanically injured trees had significantly more emergence holes/m than very low and low injured trees and late larval stages were present. The development of Eucryptorrhynchus species was more successful the greater the degree of mechanical injury. Based on this study both Eucryptorrhynchus species appear to be secondary pests of A. altissima in China.     

果园梨小食心虫越冬幼虫与成虫发生的关系

【目的】探明梨小食心虫Grapholita molesta (Busck)在果园中的越冬场所及越冬幼虫与越冬代成虫发生的关系, 为更好地防治梨小食心虫提供科学依据。【方法】选取山东省不同地区（济南、泰安、肥城、广饶、莱芜）6个代表性的果园进行系统调查, 刮树皮调查记录梨小食心虫越冬幼虫在树体上的分布和存活情况, 利用封闭纱网调查土壤中梨小食心虫越冬幼虫数量, 同时利用性诱集和糖醋液对越冬代成虫发生量进行监测, 分析同园越冬幼虫与成虫发生的关系。【结果】梨小食心虫幼虫平均越冬成活率高达62.99%; 不同果园间梨小食心虫的越冬幼虫数量差异显著（P<0.001）。 越冬场所选择更倾向于树体下部（45.10%）和中部（46.28%）以及相应的主干（28.48%）和主枝（44.24%）, 而位于树体上部(8.62%)及相应的侧枝(27.28%)的相对较少; 对树枝方位的选择没有显著差异（P>0.05）（东27.57%, 西26.13%, 南23.76%, 北22.54%）。同园越冬幼虫数量与越冬代成虫诱集数量无显著相关性。【结论】梨小食心虫以老熟幼虫在果树中、下部主干和主枝及树干周围的土壤中越冬。梨小食心虫在果园调查获得的越冬幼虫数量不能作为该果园翌年越冬代成虫发生和防治的依据, 发生危害情况还需根据周围环境情况做综合考虑。     

Assessing potential biological control of the invasive plant, tree-of-heaven, Ailanthus altissima

Tree-of-heaven, Ailanthus altissima, is a deciduous tree indigenous to China and introduced into North America and Europe. It is a serious threat to ecosystems in introduced areas, as the plant is very competitive, and also contains allelopathic chemicals that may inhibit growth of surrounding native plants. In addition, the plant contains secondary chemicals that make it unpalatable to some insects. In this paper we assess potential biological control of this plant by reviewing literature associated with natural enemies of the plant from both its native and introduced regions in the world. Our literature surveys revealed that 46 phytophagous arthropods, 16 fungi, and one potyvirus were reported attacking tree-of-heaven, some apparently causing significant damage in China. Two weevils, Eucryptorrhynchus brandti and E. chinensis, are major pests of the plant in China and are reportedly restricted to tree-of-heaven, showing promise as potential biological control agents. Nymphs and adults of a homopteran insect, Lycorma delicatula and larvae of two lepidopteran species, Samia cynthia and Eligma narcissus, may also cause severe damage, but they are not host specific. Two rust fungi, Aecidium ailanthi J. Y. Zhuan sp. nov. and Coleosporium sp. have been reported on tree-of-heaven in China and are also promising potential candidates for biological control of the plant. Nine insect herbivores and 68 fungi are associated with tree-of-heaven in its introduced range in North America, Europe, and Asia. An oligophagous insect native to North America, the ailanthus webworm, Atteva punctella, may be a potential biocontrol agent for the plant. Among the fungal species, Fusarium osysporum f. sp. perniciosum, caused wilt of tree-of-heaven in North America and may have the potential to control the plant, but its non-target effect should be carefully evaluated. Our review indicates that there is potential for using insects or pathogens to control tree-of-heaven.
