西花蓟马对二斑叶螨为害后番茄的行为反应及挥发物成分分析

【目的】为明确二斑叶螨Tetranychus urticae为害番茄后诱导的防御反应对西花蓟马Frankliniella occidentalis行为的影响。【方法】采用四臂嗅觉仪测定了西花蓟马对二斑叶螨不同密度和时间为害后番茄植株的选择行为,并用气相色谱-质谱联用仪测定了不同处理下番茄挥发物的成分,比较了它们的异同。【结果】西花蓟马对二斑叶螨不同为害株的选择率与为害时间和为害密度密切相关,并且西花蓟马对二斑叶螨为害程度居中的番茄喜好性强。10种不同处理番茄挥发性物质种类、含量及其比例在各处理间存在较大差异,二斑叶螨为害后诱导番茄新产生了香橙烯,并且在为害程度较高的番茄上检测到邻-异丙基苯、2-甲基-1-丁醇和(E)-2-己烯醛3种化合物。结合嗅觉仪的结果,推测间伞花烃和邻-异丙基苯对西花蓟马具有一定的驱避作用,对伞花烃和1-辛烯-3-醇对西花蓟马具有一定的引诱作用。【结论】西花蓟马对二斑叶螨为害程度居中的番茄植株有一定的偏好,二斑叶螨为害能诱导番茄挥发物种类和含量的变化,并且与螨害的密度和时间有关。     

火炬树抗螨性生物测定

本文分别测定了二斑叶螨Tetranychus urticae Koch和山楂叶螨Tetranychus viennensis Zacher对火炬树的选择性,以及限制性条件下火炬树对叶螨的生存及产卵的影响。结果表明：在火炬树叶和苹果叶之间,二斑叶螨和山楂叶螨在2 h, 6 h, 10 h, 12 h对火炬树的选择率分别为9.5%, 6.5%,5%,5%和2%,5%,1%和0,显著低于对苹果的选择率。被限制于火炬树叶上生存的山楂叶螨144 h后死亡率100%,产卵力随生存时间增加而下降,至96 h后产卵终止; 被限制于火炬树叶上生存的二斑叶螨240 h后全部死亡,整个观察期内（24～216 h）始终没有产卵。据此认为： 叶螨强烈拒食火炬树,火炬树对叶螨具有生存、产卵抑制作用,但这种抑制作用呈现种间差异。     

二斑叶螨与山楂叶螨种间竞争的研究

作于1994-1995年对苹果树上的二斑叶螨(Teiranychus urticae (Koch))和山楂叶螨(T．veinnensis Zacher)的种间竞争进行了研究。结果表明,在食物资源上,二斑叶螨对山楂叶螨的生态位重叠度指数是1．05,而山楂叶螨对二斑叶螨则为0.95;在生存空间资源上,二斑叶螨相应为1．11,山楂叶螨相应为0．89。在1994和1995年,两种害螨的内禀增长力(rm)在单种种群中,二斑叶螨分别是0．13036和0．0759,山楂叶螨分别是0．1028和0．0585;在混合种群中,二斑叶螨分别是0．118和0．0822,山楂叶螨分别是0．06056和0．052,二斑叶螨均明显高于山楂叶螨。在达到种群年中高峰时,二斑叶螨在混台种群中所占比率,1994年为97．2％ 1995年为86．2％。达到高峰后,两种叶螨种群数量均急剧下降,但二斑叶螨下降的速度更快。20天后,二斑叶螨在混合种群中的比率分别降至20%和19％。因此,二斑叶螨较山楂叶螨具有更强的竞争能力。但由于二的生态位并不完全重叠,因而山楂叶螨不会绝灭。

基于形态与RFLP技术相结合的快速叶螨鉴定法

叶螨属的叶螨具有个体微小、可用于鉴定的形态特征少、表型可塑性强及存在生物型分化现象的特点,给传统的形态学鉴定带来了极大的困难。在过去的十几年,叶螨科内个别种的鉴定和描述一直存在争议。本研究通过形态学和分子生物学相结合的鉴定手段,依据雄性叶螨阳具的形态特征和核糖体转录间隔区(ITS)限制性内切酶片段长度多态性技术(RFLP),对不同寄主、地理区域的叶螨种类进行了鉴定。结果表明,两项技术的结合能够准确鉴定出卢氏叶螨Tetranychus ludeni,豆叶螨Tetranychus phaselus,神泽氏叶螨Tetranychus kanzawai,二斑叶螨Tetranychus urticae,截形叶螨Tetranychus truncatus,皮氏叶螨Tetranychus piercei,为叶螨属的分类提供快速鉴定方法。     

基于wsp基因的叶螨体内Wolbachia株系的多样性与重组分析

胞内共生菌Wolbachia能对多种叶螨产生生殖调控作用.为更好地筛选有潜在应用价值的Wolbachia株系,本研究应用PCR技术对自然种群的截形叶螨Tetranychus truncatus、二斑叶螨T.urticae、神泽叶螨T.kanzawai 和山楂叶螨Amphitetranychus viennensis体内的Wolbachia感染情况进行检测,并对Wolbachia的wsp基因进行序列分析和基因重组检测.结果表明,叶螨中的Wolbachia株系具有较高的遗传多样性,其中截形叶螨感染两种分化较大的株系.不同叶螨感染特有的Wolbachia株系说明Wolbachia与其宿主存在一定的协同进化关系.二斑叶螨和截形叶螨感染同一株系的Wolbachia,可能由于水平传播造成.同时,不同株系Wolbachia的wsp基因间普遍存在着基因重组现象.     

温度对二斑叶螨实验种群生长的影响

采用大樱桃叶片饲养二斑叶螨Tetranychus urticae Koch,组建其在15,20,25,30和35℃下的实验种群生命表,分析温度对二斑叶螨种群动态的影响。结果表明:在试验的温度范围内,二斑叶螨的发育速率随着温度的升高而加快,并符合Logistic模型。二斑叶螨全世代的发育起点温度和有效积温分别为11.85℃和170.39日.度。计算出在不同温度下的实验种群的内禀增长率(rm)、净增殖率(R0)、周限增长率(λ)、世代平均周期(T)和种群加倍时间(t)等种群参数。     

二斑叶螨对六种植物的选择性及生长发育

采用“Y”形嗅觉仪研究二斑叶螨Tetranychus urticae Koch对接骨木(Sambucus williamsii Hance)、苹果(Malus pumila Mill.)、木瓜(Chaenomeles sinensis Koehne)、苦楝(Melia azedarach L.)、火炬树(Rhus typhina Torner)、大叶黄杨(Euonymus japonica Thunb)6种植物的嗅觉选择性差异。结果表明,该螨对苹果叶片的气味表现明显的趋向性,对木瓜叶片的气味表现明显的忌避性,而对其余4种叶片无趋向性或者表现中性。采用海绵水盘法研究在6种植物上的生长发育差异,该螨在接骨木、苹果、苦楝、火炬树上均能正常生长发育至成螨,且具有一定的繁殖力。但在木瓜和大叶黄杨上发育状况较差,繁殖力较差。

PRELIMINARILY STUDIES ON THE MULTIDIMENSIONAL NICHES OF TWO SPIDER MITES OF APPLE LEAF

Abstract  The multidimensional niches of two spider mites Tetranychus viennensis Zacher and Panonychus ulmi (Koch) comprise eleven ecological dimensions (trophic, microclimatic. and biologic dimensions). Principal component analysis shows: some dimensions of leaf nutrition and microclimate perform more important function than the biologic dimensions in the mites' niches from June to August. By the analysis of main axis technique and the method of comparative ecology the niche ellipsoids (i.e. multidimensional niches) of each mite were established. The niche ellipsoids of the two mites change their volumes with time, tend to seperate in June. overlap in July. and seperate in August.

Effects of prey mite species on life history of the phytoseiid predators Typhlodromalus manihoti and Typhlodromalus aripo

The effects of prey mite suitability on several demographic characteristics of phytoseiid predators and the relationship of these effects to the potential of phytoseiid predators to control herbivorous mite populations are well documented. Evidence has also accumulated in the last 20 years demonstrating that phytoseiid predators utilize herbivorous prey mite-induced plant volatiles as olfactory cues in locating their herbivorous mite prey. but less well established is the predictability of reproductive success from the ability of the predators to utilize olfactory cues to locate their prey, and how these processes are related to the success of the predators as biological control agents of the herbivorous mite. In this study, we determined in laboratory no choice experiments, the development, survivorship and fecundity of the two neotropical phytoseiid predators Typhlodromalus manihoti Moraes and T. aripo DeLeon when feeding on three herbivorous mites, including the key prey species Mononychellus tanajoa (Bondar), and the two alternative prey species Oligonychus gossypii (Zacher) and Tetranychus urticae (Koch). Intrinsic rate of increase (rm) of T. aripo was 2.1 fold higher on M. tanajoa as prey compared with T. urticae as prey, while it was almost nil on O. gossypii. For T. manihoti, rm was 2.3 fold higher on M. tanajoa as prey compared with O. gossypii as prey, while reproduction was nil on T. urticae. An independent experiment on odor-related prey preference of the two predator species (Gnanvossou et al. 2002) showed that T. manihoti and T. aripo preferred odors from M. tanajoa-infested leaves to odors from O. gossypii-infested leaves. Moreover, both predator species preferred odors from M. tanajoa-infested leaves over those from T. urticae-infested leaves. As reported here, life history of the two predatory mites matches odor-related prey preference if the key prey species is compared to the two inferior prey species. The implications of our findings for the persistence of T. manihoti and T. aripo and biological control of M. tanajoa in the cassava agroecosystem in Africa are discussed.     

Prey preference of the predatory mite Neoseiulus womersleyi Schicha is determined by spider mite webs

Abstract:  We experimentally verified a proximate cause for the preference of prey species by the predatory mite Neoseiulus womersleyi , which prefers the eggs of Amphitetranychus viennensis Zacher to those of Tetranychus urticae Koch. To separate the effects of spider mite eggs and spider mite webs on the prey preference of the predatory mite, we manipulated combinations of eggs and webs of the two prey species. The number of eggs consumed by adult female N. womersleyi was compared with respect to two factors: eggs of the same species under webs of the different species and eggs of different species under webs of the same species. The results revealed that the prey preference of N. womersleyi was determined by the webs, and not by the eggs.     

SEASONAL ABUNDANCE AND CONTROL OF SPIDER MITES (TETRANYCHIDAE) INFESTING COMMERCIAL STRAWBERRIES IN COASTAL NEW SOUTH WALES

The seasonal abundance of the spider mites Tetranychus urticae Koch and T. ludeni Zacher was studied on commercial strawberry farms near Sydney, New South Wales between 1978–1981. T. urticae was the dominant species with T. ludeni assuming a minor role. T. urticae usually first appeared each year in May-June, with populations developing through winter and increasing to, and sometimes exceeding, the economic threshold level in spring-summer. In early January, populations were low or absent. In winter, temperature was not an impediment to pest population increase and adult females remained in a non-diapausing phase. Miticide sprays gave variable control of T. urticae outbreaks, probably due to the difficulties of applying the spray to the underside of leaves and widespread resistance within pest populations. The predator Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot, where it occurred, survived under most conditions and was an important factor in controlling T. urticae infestations. Another predator, Amblyseius womersleyi Schicha, occurred infrequently and at low numbers and contributed little to control.     

Attraction of Phytoseiulus persimilis (Acari: Phytoseiidae) towards volatiles from various Tetranychus urticae-infested plant species

Plants infested with the spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch, may indirectly defend themselves by releasing volatiles that attract the predatory mite Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot. Several plants from different plant families that varied in the level of spider mite acceptance were tested in an olfactometer. The predatory mites were significantly attracted to the spider mite-infested leaves of all test plant species. No differences in attractiveness of the infested plant leaves were found for predatory mites reared on spider mites on the different test plants or on lima bean. Thus, experience with the spider mite-induced plant volatiles did not affect the predatory mites. Jasmonic acid was applied to ginkgo leaves to induce a mimic of a spider mite-induced volatile blend, because the spider mites did not survive when incubated on ginkgo. The volatile blend induced in ginkgo by jasmonic acid was slightly attractive to predatory mites. Plants with a high degree of direct defence were thought to invest less in indirect defence than plants with a low degree of direct defence. However, plants that had a strong direct defence such as ginkgo and sweet pepper, did emit induced volatiles that attracted the predatory mite. This indicates that a combination of direct and indirect defence is to some extent compatible in plant species.
