Critical thermal maximum (CTM) and loss of righting response (LRR) were determined in seven estuarine fishes. The critical thermal maxima (CTM) ranged from 39.5°C to 44.5°C for fishes acclimated to 28°C. Lates calcarifer and Liza dussumeri had the highest CTM (44.5°C) and Siganus javus had the lowest CTM (39.5°C). The rate of change of CTM due to thermal acclimation was determined for Etroplus suratensis and Therapon jarbua. The CTM for E.suratensis increased from 39.75°C to 43.5°C on a 15°C increase in acclimation temperature and the CTM of T. jarbua shifted from 40.75°C to 43.15°C on a 15°C increase in acclimation. The acclimation response ratio (ARR) as a result of increasing the acclimation temperature was about 0.25 in E. suratensis and 0.2 in T. jarbua.  相似文献

Increasing energy costs force glasshouse growers to switch to energy saving strategies. In the temperature integration approach, considerable daily temperature variations are allowed, which not only have an important influence on plant growth but also on the development rate of arthropods in the crop. Therefore, we examined the influence of two constant temperature regimes (15 °C/15 °C and 20 °C/20 °C) and one alternating temperature regime (20 °C/5 °C, with an average of 15 °C) on life table parameters of Phytoseiulus persimilis and Neoseiulus californicus and their target pest, the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae at a 16:8 (L:D) h photoperiod and 65 ± 5 % RH. For females of both predatory mites the alternating temperature regime resulted in a 25–30 % shorter developmental time as compared to the corresponding mean constant temperature regime of 15 °C/15 °C. The immature development of female spider mites was prolonged for 7 days at 15 °C/15 °C as compared to 20 °C/5 °C. With a daytime temperature of 20 °C, no differences in lifetime fecundity were observed between a nighttime temperature of 20 and 5 °C for P. persimilis and T. urticae. The two latter species did show a higher lifetime fecundity at 20 °C/5 °C than at 15 °C/15 °C, and their daily fecundity at the alternating regime was about 30 % higher than at the corresponding mean constant temperature. P. persimilis and T. urticae showed no differences in sex ratio between the three temperature regimes, whereas the proportion of N. californicus females at 15 °C/15 °C (54.2 %) was significantly lower than that at 20 °C/5 °C (69.4 %) and 20 °C/20 °C (67.2 %). Intrinsic rates of increase were higher at the alternating temperature than at the corresponding mean constant temperature for both pest and predators. Our results indicate that thermal responses of the studied phytoseiid predators to alternating temperature regimes used in energy saving strategies in glasshouse crops may have consequences for their efficacy in biological control programs.  相似文献

We studied the development of Geocoris varius (Uhler) and Geocoris proteus Distant reared on Ephestia kuehniella Zeller eggs at 20, 24, 26, 30, 33, or 36?°C. The lower developmental thresholds (T 0) and the thermal constants (K) of eggs and nymphs of G. varius were 13.3?°C, 151.1 degree-days and 13.4?°C, 433.0 degree-days, respectively; those of G. proteus were 16.1?°C, 98.3 degree-days and 16.9?°C, 226.9 degree-days, respectively. The hatch rate of G. varius eggs was significantly lower at 33?°C than at ??30?°C, and no eggs hatched at 36?°C. That of G. proteus was lowest at 20?°C and did not decline significantly at 36?°C. The survival rate throughout the nymphal period increased with temperature up to 30?°C in G. varius, and it was lowest at 20?°C in G. proteus. Thus, the optimal rearing temperatures for immature stages appear to be about 24?C30?°C for G. varius and 26?C33?°C for G. proteus. It might be possible to improve the efficiency of their mass production by controlling the rearing temperature in the above ranges. This would also make the developmental stages of nymphs more uniform and so prevent cannibalism in mass rearing.  相似文献

The functional response ofCyrtorhinus lividipennis Reuter attacking the brown planthopper(Nilaparvata lugens (Stål.), BPH) eggs on rice was determined at six constant temperatures of 20°C, 23°C, 26°C, 29°C, 32°C and 35°C. Rogers’ (1972) random predator equations were fitted to the data for each temperature separately. The equation model adequately described a Holling’s Type II functional response forC. lividipennis and produced biologically realistic estimates of attack rates and handling times at five experimental temperatures between 20°C and 32°C. However, at 35°C, a negative handling time(Th = - 0.0029) was produced. The effect of temperature was incorporated in to Rogers’ equation by making the attack rate(a) and handling time(Th) functions of temperature within the range 20°C to 32°C. The attack rate and handling time were fitted as hyperbola and reciprocal hyperbola functions of temperature respectively. The temperature incorporating fourparameter composite model fitted the combined data as well as did separate Rogers’ equations based on the parameter estimates.  相似文献

The maturation rate and spawning performance of ablated Penaeus merguiensis were significantly (P<0.05) higher at 27°C than at 23°C. Increasing the temperature from 23°C to 27°C further improved spawning performance (P<0.05), whereas reducing the temperature from 27°C to 23°C impaired spawning. The effect of temperature during the inducing period was more critical than during the holding period. Prawn growth (% of weight gain), however, was not different between 23°C and 27°C over the 60-day experimental period (P>0.05).  相似文献

This study investigates the thermal activity thresholds of the predatory mirid Nesidiocoris tenuis Reuter (Hemiptera: Miridae) and two spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae). Adult N. tenuis lost locomotory function and entered chill coma at significantly lower temperatures (4.0°C and 0.3°C, respectively) than adult T. urticae (7.0°C and 5.7°C, respectively). However, the mirids were more adversely affected by high temperatures, with T. urticae losing the ability to walk and entering heat coma at higher temperatures (47.3°C and 49.7°C, respectively) than N. tenuis (43.5°C and 46.6°C, respectively). Across a range of temperatures (2.5–20°C) adult N. tenuis had faster walking speeds than T. urticae. These data are discussed in relation to the climatic conditions under which N. tenuis would be an effective biocontrol agent.  相似文献

The resistance time of Etroplus suratensis (Bloch) and Therapon jarbua (Forsskal) were determined for fish acclimated to a series of temperatures 20°C, 25°C, 28°C, 30°C, and 35°C. The results indicated that these two species of fishes showed increased thermal resistance when acclimation temperatures were increased or decreased, respectively. The biokinetic range of temperature for E. suratensis is from 12°C to 46°C and that for T. jarbua is from 8°C to 44°C.  相似文献

The duration of the development of the aphelinidEncarsia tricolor Föerster (a parasitoid of the aleyrodidTrialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood), adult size and number of mature oocytes at emergence were determined under constant and variable temperature regimes. Females developed successfully from 14 to 32°C, but a 100% of pupal mortality was observed at 34°C. Males developed successfully from 16 to 28°C and they developed faster than females. Female and male, egg to adult development at constant temperatures ranged from 51.1 (14°C) to 14.3 (28°C) days and from 32.6 (16°C) to 11.8 (28°C) days, respectively. Predictions of the rate of development at variable temperatures were more accurate when made from 2nd and 3rd degree polynomials than from linear regressions. The number of mature oocytes at emergence ranged from 0.1 (30°C) to 2.2 (20°C). FemaleE. tricolor attained the greatest size at 20–24°C. The comparison with literature data shows thatE. tricolor develops faster thanT. vaporariorum at temperatures above 15°C.  相似文献

Much interest exists in the extent to which constant versus fluctuating temperatures affect thermal performance traits and their phenotypic plasticity. Theory suggests that effects should vary with temperature, being especially pronounced at more extreme low (because of thermal respite) and high (because of Jensen's inequality) temperatures. Here we tested this idea by examining the effects of constant temperatures (10 to 30 °C in 5 °C increments) and fluctuating temperatures (means equal to the constant temperatures, but with fluctuations of ±5 °C) temperatures on the adult (F2) phenotypic plasticity of three thermal performance traits – critical thermal minimum (CTmin), critical thermal maximum (CTmax), and upper lethal temperature (ULT50) in ten species of springtails (Collembola) from three families (Isotomidae 7 spp.; Entomobryidae 2 spp.; Onychiuridae 1 sp.). The lowest mean CTmin value recorded here was -3.56 ± 1.0 °C for Paristoma notabilis and the highest mean CTmax was 43.1 ± 0.8 °C for Hemisotoma thermophila. The Acclimation Response Ratio for CTmin was on average 0.12 °C/°C (range: 0.04 to 0.21 °C/°C), but was much lower for CTmax (mean: 0.017 °C/°C, range: -0.015 to 0.047 °C/°C) and lower also for ULT50 (mean: 0.05 °C/°C, range: -0.007 to 0.14 °C/°C). Fluctuating versus constant temperatures typically had little effect on adult phenotypic plasticity, with effect sizes either no different from zero, or inconsistent in the direction of difference. Previous work assessing adult phenotypic plasticity of these thermal performance traits across a range of constant temperatures can thus be applied to a broader range of circumstances in springtails.  相似文献

Effects of temperature on development of eggs, recently hatched larvae and L3 larvae of the marine parasitic nematodes Anisakis simplex sensu stricto (s.s.) and A. pegreffii were examined in vitro. The eggs of A. simplex s.s. hatched at 3–25 °C and those of A. pegreffii hatched at 3–27 °C. Days before hatching varied between 2 days at 25 °C and 35–36 days at 3 °C in A. simplex s.s. and between 2 and 3 days at 27 °C and 65 days at 3 °C in A. pegreffii. Hatching rates of A. simplex s.s. were maintained high at temperatures between 3 and 25 °C but decreased to 0% at 27 °C. In contrast, those of A. pegreffii were lowest particularly at 3 °C, but also at 27 °C. The mean 50% survivals of hatched larvae ranged from 5.3 days at 25 °C to 82.3 days at 9 °C in A. simplex s.s., while in A. pegreffii it ranged from 1.2 days at 27 °C to 77.2 days at 9 °C. L3 larvae of A. pegreffii exhibited higher survival rates and activity than those of A. simplex s.s., particularly at 20 and 25 °C. These results suggest that the early stages of A. simplex s.s. are more adapted to lower temperatures whereas those of A. pegreffii are more tolerant to warm environments, which may correspond to their distribution patterns in Japan and Europe.  相似文献

  • 1.1. Brain (hypothalamic), skin and body temperatures were measured in hand-reared acclimated (Acc, n = 5) and non-acclimated (NAcc, n =7) rock pigeons (Columba livia, mean body mass 237 g) exposed to increasing ambient temperatures (Ta) (30–60°C) and low humidities.
  • 2.2. In non-panting Acc birds, brain temperature gradually increased from 40.1 ± 0.4°C at 30°C to 41.2 ± 0.4°C at 60°C Ta. A mean body temperature (Tb) of 41.2 ± 0.2°C was measured at Ta up to 50°C; an increase of 1.1°C was observed at 60°C (Tb 42.2 ±0.6°C).
  • 3.3. In Acc panting birds exposed for 2 hr to 60°C, Thy was 41.9 ± 0.8°C and Ts was somewhat (but insignificantly) higher, i.e., 42.2 ± 0.7°C. It looks as if both values were increased as a result of a slight hyperthermia that developed (Tb = 43.5 ± 0.9°C).
  • 4.4. The significance of the present results for evaluating neuronal thermoresponsiveness of birds' hypothalamus is discussed.

The development and reproductive potential of an indigenous parasitoid, Aphelinus varipes (Förster), was studied at 15, 17, 20, 25, and 30 °C. Developmental durations decreased with increasing temperatures. The emergence rate was higher than 90 % at 15, 17, and 20 °C. Offspring sex ratios were 0.69, 0.54, and 0.70 at 17, 20, and 25 °C, respectively, but were 0.14 at 15 °C and 0.38 at 30 °C. Developmental zeros of females and males were calculated as 9.9 and 9.6 °C, respectively. The effective accumulative temperature (K) was 204.1 degree-days in both sexes. Fecundity peaked in early age after emergence, then gradually decreased in a fluctuating manner at 20 and 25 °C. Host feeding continued constantly during the life of female adults at two temperatures. Single female parasitoids produced 218.5 and 203.1 mummies at 20 and 25 °C, respectively, during their lifespans. Aphids killed by parasitoid host feeding numbered 79.1 at 20 °C and 63.8 at 25 °C. Longevities were 27.0 days at 20 °C and 20.6 days at 25 °C. Moreover, intrinsic rates of natural increase (r m) were estimated as 0.151 at 20 °C and 0.227 at 25 °C. We discuss the potential of A. varipes as biological control agents by comparing them with Aphidius colemani Viereck, which has been introduced to horticultural crops in greenhouses in Japan.  相似文献

Control of Campylobacter in the food chain requires a better understanding of the behaviour of the bacteria in relevant environments. Campylobacter species are largely non-pathogenic in poultry, the body temperature of which is 42 °C. However, the bacteria are highly pathogenic in humans whose body temperature is 37 °C. The aim of this study was to examine if switching from commensal to pathogenic behaviour was related to temperature. We examined the growth, motility and invasion of T84 cells by three species of Campylobacter: C. jejuni 81116, C. jejuni M1, C. coli 1669, C. coli RM2228 and C. fetus fetus NC10842 grown at 37 and 42 °C. Our results suggest that C. jejuni isolates grow similarly at both temperatures but some are more motile at 42 °C and some are more invasive at 37 °C, which may account for its rapid spread in poultry flocks and for infection in humans, respectively. C. coli, which are infrequent causes of Campylobacter infections in humans, is less able to grow and move at 37 °C compared to 42 °C but was significantly more invasive at the lower temperature. C. fetus fetus, which is infrequently found in poultry, is less able to grow and invade at 42 °C.  相似文献

The courtship, mating and ovipositional behavior ofA. matricariae Haliday were studied. UsingMyzus persicae (Sulzer) as the host, the production of progeny per female parasite and survival from mummy stage to the adult were studied at constant temperatures of 10°, 12.8°, 15.6°, 18.3°, 21°, 24°, 26.7°, 29.5° and 32°C. The longevity of male and female parasites was determined at temperatures of 7°, 10°, 15.6°, 21°, 26.7°, 29.5° and 32°C. The greatest number of progeny (392) was produced at 21°C. The optimal temperatures for production of progeny and survival of the parasites during the mummy stage were from 12.8°C to 21°C. The longevity of male and female adult parasites decreased as temperatures increased and male parasites lived significantly (P<0.05) longer than females at 10° and 15.6°C.  相似文献

The effects of egg storage duration (ESD) and brooding temperature (BT) on BW, intestine development and nutrient transporters of broiler chicks were investigated. A total of 396 chicks obtained from eggs stored at 18°C for 3 days (ESD3-18°C) or at 14°C for 14 days (ESD14-14°C) before incubation were exposed to three BTs. Temperatures were initially set at 32°C, 34°C and 30°C for control (BT-Cont), high (BT-High) and low (BT-Low) BTs, respectively. Brooding temperatures were decreased by 2°C each at days 2, 7, 14 and 21. Body weight was measured at the day of hatch, 2, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 42. Cloacal temperatures of broilers were recorded from 1 to 14 days. Intestinal morphology and gene expression levels of H+-dependent peptide transporter (PepT1) and Na-dependent glucose (SGLT1) were evaluated on the day of hatch and 14. Cloacal temperatures of chicks were affected by BTs from days 1 to 8, being the lowest for BT-Low chicks. BT-High resulted in the heaviest BWs at 7 days, especially for ESD14-14°C chicks. This result was consistent with longer villus and larger villus area of ESD14-14°C chicks at BT-High conditions. From 14 days to slaughter age, BT had no effect on broiler weight. ESD3-18°C chicks were heavier than ESD14-14°C chicks up to 28 days. The PepT1 and SGLT1 expression levels were significantly higher in ESD3-18°C chicks than ESD14-14°C on the day of hatch. There was significant egg storage by BT interaction for PepT1 and SGLT1 transporters at day 14. ESD14-14°C chicks had significantly higher expression of PepT1 and SGLT1 at BT-Low than those at BT-Cont. ESD14-14°C chicks upregulated PepT1 gene expression 1.15 and 1.57-fold at BT-High and BT-Low, respectively, compared with BT-Cont, whereas PepT1 expression was downregulated 0.67 and 0.62-fold in ESD3-18°C chicks at BT-High and BT-Low. These results indicated that pre-incubation egg storage conditions and BTs affected intestine morphology and PepT1 and SGLT1 nutrient transporters expression in broiler chicks.  相似文献

The in vivo and in vitro cardiac responses of Lepidosiren paradoxa were analyzed during temperature variations from 25°C (acclimation temperature) to 15°C and 35°C, and subsequent return to 25°C. Chronotropic (heart frequency) and inotropic (twitch force) responses varied directly with temperature, decreasing from 25°C to 15°C and increasing from 25°C to 35°C. However, time to peak tension (TPT) and time to half relaxation (THR) showed an inverse tendency. The results indicate that the myocardium of L. paradoxa responds more appropriately to acute elevations in temperature, which results in an increased cardiac performance due to both positive chronotropism and inotropism, in spite of the temperature-induced curtailment of TPT and THR.  相似文献

The objectives of this study were to examine temperature-dependent development, diapause and cold tolerance of Gratiana graminea Klug (Chrysomelidae), a candidate biological control agent of tropical soda apple, Solanum viarum Dunal (Solanaceae). Immature development was examined at six constant temperatures ranging from 15°C to 30°C. Diapause induction was determined by exposing adults to either long or short photoperiods at 20°C and cold tolerance was assessed by exposing adults to 0°C. G. graminea completed development at temperatures ranging from 20°C to 30°C. Linear regression estimated a lower temperature threshold of 11.7°C and 312 degree-days were required to complete development. Diapause was induced when adults were exposed to short photoperiods (10:14 L:D h) at 20°C. The lethal times for diapausing adults of G. graminea at 0°C (LT50?=?19?days, LT90?=?41?days) were two times higher compared to Gratiana boliviana Spaeth, a biological control agent already established in south and central Florida, USA. The presence of diapause and the greater cold tolerance suggest that G. graminea may establish and perform better than G. boliviana in northern Florida.  相似文献

We report here the effect of adding different types of carbohydrate-binding modules (CBM) to a single-module GH7 family cellobiohydrolase Cel7A from a thermophilic fungus Talaromyces emersonii (TeCel7A). Both bacterial and fungal CBMs derived from families 1, 2 and 3, all reported to bind to crystalline cellulose, were used. Chimeric cellobiohydrolases with an additional S–S bridge in the catalytic module of TeCel7A were also made. All the fusion proteins were secreted in active form and in good yields by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The purified chimeric enzymes bound to cellulose clearly better than the catalytic module alone and demonstrated high thermal stability, having unfolding temperatures (T m) ranging from 72 °C to 77 °C. The highest activity enhancement on microcrystalline cellulose could be gained by a fusion with a bacterial CBM3 derived from Clostridium thermocellum cellulosomal-scaffolding protein CipA. The two CBM3 fusion enzymes tested were more active than the reference enzyme Trichoderma reesei Cel7A both at moderate (45 °C and 55 °C) and at high temperatures (60 °C and 65 °C), the hydrolysis yields being two- to three-fold better at 60 °C, and six- to seven-fold better at 65 °C. The best enzyme variant was also tested on a lignocellulosic feedstock hydrolysis, which demonstrated its potency in biomass hydrolysis even at 70 °C.  相似文献

Encapsulation of eggs inserted by Metaphycus stanleyi (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) into the brown soft scale Coccus hesperidum (Homoptera: Coccidae) became more frequent as the host matured. This occurred with both laboratory reared and field-collected parasites. After parasitism for 24 hr at 27°C, encapsulation frequency did not differ in hosts reared at 20° or at 27°C, but significantly increased in hosts reared at 33°C. When parasitism and rearing were carried out at the same temperature, the percentage of eggs encapsulated increased from 48.7% at 27°C to 94.1% at 33°C. With M. helvolus, the percentage of eggs encapsulated was considerably higher than with M. stanleyi; e.g., 99.3 vs 48.7%, respectively, at 27°C. At 20° and 27°C, some M. helvolus development occurred in the larvae of brown soft scale but none at 33°C; the adult stages of the host encapsulated all the parasite eggs at these temperatures.  相似文献
