颈双缘姬蜂Diadromus collaris是小菜蛾蛹的重要寄生蜂。该文报道了此蜂的羽化、产卵、交配、发育、繁殖、存活等生物学、生态学特性以及农药残留对其成蜂毒性等。在25℃下,雌蜂羽化后1～2d即可产卵,第3～7d达到产卵高峰,每雌一生平均产卵寄生43.8头寄主,平均产卵寄生期为11.5d。幼虫共有5个龄期,25℃下卵期和各龄幼虫期1～2d,蛹期5～6d,雌、雄蜂的发育历期无显著差异,在15℃、17.5℃、20℃、22.5℃、25℃、27.5℃、30℃和32.5℃时从卵发育至成虫的平均历期为30.6d、22.5d、17.8d、14.5d、12.1 d、11.1d、10.3d和10.2d。发育起点温度为7.4℃,有效积温为225.1日度。发育、存活和产卵寄生适温范围约17～30℃。15℃下成蜂可贮存20～30d。Bt、抑太保、害极灭等对成蜂无直接的残留毒性,辛硫磷、灭多威、杀虫双等则有较高的毒性,杀灭菊酯有微毒性。     

颈双缘姬蜂寄生引起小菜蛾蛹脂肪体形态和超微结构的变化

采用光学和电子显微镜观察了颈双缘姬蜂Diadromus collaris（膜翅目： 姬蜂科）寄生后小菜蛾Plutella xylostella（鳞翅目：菜蛾科）蛹脂肪体形态、超微结构和脂肪细胞的变化。结果表明： 被寄生72 h后小菜蛾蛹脂肪体结构松散,细胞游离,细胞膜破裂;细胞内营养物质开始被动地消耗;细胞器数量减少,细胞核内染色质状态发生变化。这些现象说明寄生对寄主的脂肪体结构及脂肪细胞产生了明显的影响,这有利于为幼蜂的发育提供营养。     

半闭弯尾姬蜂寄生及其毒液对小菜蛾幼虫血细胞吞噬作用的影响

半闭弯尾姬蜂Diadegma semiclausum是小菜蛾Plutella xylostella的优势内寄生蜂, 拥有毒液、多分DNA病毒（PDV）等寄生因子,能有效调控寄主幼虫的营养生理和免疫系统, 但其毒液在这过程中的功能不明。本文利用SDS-PAGE方法分析了半闭弯尾姬蜂毒液的蛋白组分,利用寄主幼虫血细胞体外原代培养的方法,研究了小菜蛾幼虫血细胞噬菌能力在半闭弯尾姬蜂寄生后的变化情况。结果表明：半闭弯尾姬蜂毒液蛋白分子量主要集中在35~220 kDa之间,少数小于15 kDa,但分子量处于35~70 kDa之间的蛋白含量较高,与其他寄生蜂毒液蛋白相似。半闭弯尾姬蜂毒液单独对寄主小菜蛾幼虫功能血细胞（浆血细胞和颗粒血细胞）的延展能力和吞噬功能不产生破坏作用。但半闭弯尾姬蜂寄生后短时间内,寄主功能血细胞的延展受到抑制,然而功能血细胞仍然能识别外源异物, 却无法进一步吞噬外源物; 寄生后24 h,功能血细胞的延展力恢复,颗粒血细胞的吞噬作用可顺利完成。本研究证明了半闭弯尾姬蜂寄生能暂时性地抑制颗粒血细胞的延展性从而影响其噬菌过程。     

啮小蜂毒液对寄主亚洲玉米螟蛹发育的影响

假寄生和毒液注射实验表明啮小蜂Tetrastichussp .毒液能永久麻痹亚洲玉米螟蛹Ostriniafurnacalis,较高剂量的毒液对亚洲玉米螟蛹有不同程度的麻痹作用。麻痹的蛹在室温下较长时间内不腐烂和干化。低剂量毒液能延长亚洲玉米螟蛹期 1～ 3d ,导致畸形成虫。啮小蜂初产卵转移寄主实验证实毒液可以帮助啮小蜂卵在亚洲玉米螟蛹体内的发育 ,啮小蜂初产卵在转移寄主体内发育到羽化时间为 2 5d ,比它们在原寄主内的羽化时间增加 8d左右 ,初产蜂卵与 1个毒液储液囊当量的毒液同时注入转移寄主体内 ,初产卵的羽化时间明显缩短 ,死亡率降低

大菜粉蝶根虫瘟霉菌株转染小菜蛾后侵染力变化及其与寄主血淋巴酚氧化酶活性的关系

源于大菜粉蝶Pieris brassicae的根虫瘟霉Zoophthora radicans菌株R₀通过反复转染小菜蛾Plutella xylostella而分别获得转染菌株R₁、R₃和R₅。用这些菌株对小菜蛾2龄幼虫进行生物测定,发现菌株对寄主的侵染力有随转染次数增加而增强的趋势。接种后第1～6 天,R₀的LC₂₀（孢子数/mm²）分别为14.7、14.5、9.0、7.1、6.0和5.5;R₁的LC₂₀分别为9.6、5.0、4.2、3.6、3.1和3.0;R₃的LC₂₀分别为4.6、2.9、2.8、2.5、2.4和2.2; R₅的LC₂₀分别为5.2、3.7、3.2、2.8、2.6和2.6,接种后同一天菌株 R₃的LC₂₀值最小即侵染力最强。各菌株感染小菜蛾幼虫后可显著激活寄主血淋巴中的酚氧化酶活性,但R₁、R₃和R₅对酚氧化酶的激活程度显著低于原始菌株R₀。各菌株对小菜蛾的侵染力强弱指标log₁₀ (LC₂₀)与其侵染后寄主血淋巴酚氧化酶活性呈明显正相关（0.852<0.95）,表明R0在对新寄主转染过程中逐渐获得了逃避或克服新寄主免疫防御的能力,从而增强对新寄主的侵染力。

菜蛾盘绒茧蜂主要寄生因子导致的寄主小菜蛾幼虫脂肪体结构的变化

在不同的寄生状态下,菜蛾盘绒茧蜂Cotesia plutellae不同的寄生因子可引起寄主小菜蛾Plutella xylostella幼虫脂肪体结构发生相应的改变。显微和亚显微形态结构显示： 假寄生后多分DNA病毒和毒液对脂肪体结构的完整性没有显著影响,但细胞内脂质体变得小而密集,线粒体和内质网丰富,并有糖原积累; 正常寄生后,脂肪体结构被破坏,多数线粒体内嵴紊乱,脂质体也变得不规则,特别是当幼蜂完成在寄主体内发育时,寄主体内几乎无完整脂肪体存在。与此同时,同批未被寄生的小菜蛾幼虫发育到4龄末期时,体内脂肪体细胞发育正常,已开始向蛹期细胞形态转化,细胞内脂质体很大,细胞器数量较多、糖原积累丰富, 而且部分细胞已成为游离态细胞。由此证明,寄生蜂携带的寄生因子,如多分DNA病毒、毒液、畸形细胞和幼蜂等,均对寄主脂肪体结构的改变产生影响,但程度明显不同。     

椰扁甲啮小蜂寄生对椰心叶甲蛹免疫反应的影响

为了测明椰扁甲啮小蜂Tetrastichus brontispae寄生对寄主椰心叶甲Brontispa longissima蛹的血细胞和体液免疫反应的影响,开展了椰扁甲啮小蜂寄生对椰心叶甲蛹血细胞数量和延展性、血淋巴酚氧化酶活性、血淋巴黑化百分率和血细胞凝集素活性等影响的研究。结果表明：与同期未被寄生蛹相比,寄生蛹血细胞总量在寄生后2 d显著降低,但寄生后4 d显著升高; 寄生蛹的浆血细胞延展率在寄生后2 d显著降低,寄生后4 d显著升高;寄生蛹的血淋巴黑化百分率在寄生后0.5～2 d较高,寄生后3～4 d降低直至为0;寄生蛹的血淋巴酚氧化酶活性在寄生后0.5 d,1 d和4 d时显著升高;寄生蛹的血凝素活性在寄生后2 d较高,寄生后1 d和4 d较低。结果说明椰扁甲啮小蜂寄生使寄主椰心叶甲蛹血细胞和体液免疫反应呈现不规律的变化。     

Effects of host age on the performance of >Diadromus collaris, a pupal parasitoid of >Plutella xylostella

The ichneumonid >Diadromus collaris(Gravenhorst) (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) is amajor solitary, pupal endoparasitoid of thediamondback moth, >Plutella xylostella(Linnaeus) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae).Experiments to examine parasitism of the hostpupae of different ages by the parasitoid wereconducted in the laboratory. >Diadromuscollaris preferred host pupae that were in thefirst half of their pupal development. Survivalfrom larva to adult, and size and parasitizingcapacity of the resultant female adultsdecreased dramatically as host pupal ageincreased. When ovipositions were made intohost pupae that were in the last quarter oftheir development, all parasitoids died beforeadult emergence. The performance of >D.collaris, as affected by host pupal age,agrees with the simple diet theory thatpredicts female wasps should select hosts ofhigher nutritional quality for oviposition.     

菜蛾盘绒茧蜂对寄主小菜蛾幼虫营养的调节和利用

寄主小菜蛾Plutella xylostella被内寄生蜂菜蛾盘绒茧蜂Cotesia plutellae寄生后,其取食、发育及营养代谢在各种寄生因子的作用下伴随幼蜂的发育而发生很大的变化,畸形细胞作为调节因子之一也发挥了重要的作用。本实验通过比较被寄生和未被寄生小菜蛾血淋巴蛋白浓度以及两种血淋巴对菜蛾盘绒茧蜂幼蜂进行体外培养的培养液的蛋白浓度,发现被寄生小菜蛾血淋巴比未被寄生小菜蛾血淋巴的蛋白浓度略低但差异不显著,而未被寄生小菜蛾血淋巴幼蜂培养液的蛋白浓度显著低于被寄生小菜蛾血淋巴幼蜂培养液的蛋白浓度,证明畸形细胞的蛋白质分泌功能。被寄生后期, 小菜蛾体重明显大于未被寄生的小菜蛾体重,而脂肪体重量相比正好相反;通过显微染色观察,在小菜蛾念珠状脂肪体表面粘附有畸形细胞,对脂肪体进行分解破坏而使其成颗粒状; 蛋白含量和脂滴浓度测定也表明,脂肪体的可溶性蛋白含量和脂滴浓度也迅速降低,同比低于未被寄生小菜蛾。而与此同时,幼蜂正处在快速生长阶段,中肠酯酶的活性逐步上升,幼蜂得以快速消化吸收小菜蛾体内的营养直到完成幼虫发育,整个幼蜂的脂滴浓度也达到了最大值。因此寄生后期,推测在畸形细胞的协助下,幼蜂吸收了寄主小菜蛾体内的营养为自身生长发育所用。     

Reproductive compatibility and variation in survival and sex ratio between two geographic populations of Diadromus collaris, a pupal parasitoid of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella

Diadromus collaris (Gravenhorst)(Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) has been recordedin many parts of the world as a major pupalendoparasitoid of the diamondback moth Plutella xylostella (Linnaeus) (Lepidoptera:Plutellidae). Experiments were conducted tocompare reproductive compatibility andperformance as affected by temperature betweentwo geographic populations of D.collaris, one from Hangzhou, Zhejiang and theother from Lishan, Taiwan, China. The numbersand sex ratio of progeny in all possiblecrosses and backcrosses were similar to thoseobtained within each of the populations,demonstrating complete reproductivecompatibility between the two populations. Thetwo populations showed similar responses totemperature with respect to development time,adult longevity and number of host pupaeparasitized per female. However, the populationfrom Hangzhou achieved higher rates of survivalfrom larva to adult emergence at hightemperatures and had higher proportions offemale progeny at some temperatures, than thepopulation from Lishan. The Hangzhou populationachieved higher intrinsic rates of increase atall temperatures tested from 15 to33.5 °C, and the differences weresignificant at 30 and 32 °C. Thedifferences between the two populations inability to survive high temperatures mayreflect their adaptation to local climates. Thesignificance of the intraspecific variationsrevealed is discussed with regard to the use ofgeographic populations of the parasitoid in thebiological control of P. xylostella.     

Altered actin polymerization of Plutella xylostella (L.) in response to ovarian calyx components of an endoparasitoid Cotesia plutellae (Kurdjumov)

Abstract Cotesia plutellae (Kurdjumov) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), a solitary braconid endoparasitoid wasp, parasitizes the diamondback moth Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae) by suppressing the host defense response, thereby resulting in successful parasitization. During parasitization, ovarian calyx fluid is also delivered into the haemocoel of the host along with the wasp egg. The effect of calyx fluid constituents on haemocyte‐spreading behaviour of P. xylostella is analysed by measuring F‐actin development in the haemocytes. For this purpose, the calyx fluid of C. plutellae is separated into ovarian protein and C. plutellae bracovirus (CpBV). The ovarian protein consists of a wide range of molecular weight proteins, which are apparently different from those of CpBV. When nonparasitized P. xylostella haemocytes are incubated with either ovarian protein or CpBV for 1 or 2 h, haemocytes lose their responsiveness to a cytokine, plasmatocyte‐spreading peptide, in a dose‐dependent manner for each calyx component and fail to exhibit haemocyte‐spreading behaviour. Some CpBV genes are expressed within 1 h of parasitization. The inhibition of haemocyte‐spreading could be explained by measuring F‐actin contents, in which parasitization by C. plutellae inhibits F‐actin development in the haemocytes of P. xylostella. Either ovarian protein or CpBV could inhibit F‐actin development in the nonparasitized haemocytes. In addition, co‐incubation of ovarian protein and CpBV results in significant additive inhibition of both haemocyte‐spreading and F‐actin development in the haemocytes in response to cytokine. These results suggest that both components of C. plutellae calyx fluid function in a synergistic manner, leading to immunosuppression during the early stage of parasitization.     

The effects of wild cruciferous host plants on morphology,reproductive performance and flight activity in the diamondback moth,Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae)

The wild crucifers,Rorippa indica andLepidium virginicum, are known to serve as host plants for the diamondback moth (DBM),Plutella xylostella, but they are less suitable than the preferred cultivated cruciferous plant, cabbage, in terms of adult body size and fecundity. The life history traits and flight activity of DBM adults grown on various host plants were investigated. The adults thus reared on each host plant were divided into three size groups (small, medium and large). In general, female adults grown on the wild crucifers were less fecund and lived longer than those reared on cabbage. Flight activity was higher in adults grown on wild crucifers than in those reared on cabbage. Male adults flew longer than females. Fecundity, longevity, flight activity and morphometrical characters of adults were positively correlated with pupal weight in individuals reared on the same host plant. A negative relationship was found between fecundity and flight activity in females of the same size group, but a positive one was observed in females reared on the same host plant.     

根虫瘟霉不同菌株对小菜蛾幼虫血淋巴酚氧化酶原的激活作用

在对小菜蛾Plutella xylostella幼虫血淋巴酚氧化酶原的存在部位及免疫激活作用特点研究的基础上,比较了根虫瘟霉Zoophthora radicans不同菌株对酚氧化酶原激活系统的免疫激化及防御作用的差异。研究发现, 酚氧化酶原主要位于小菜蛾幼虫血细胞膜及血细胞裂解液中,极少存在于血浆中。在免疫激活剂昆布多糖存在下,分别测得小菜蛾幼虫血细胞碎片、血细胞裂解液和血浆的酚氧化酶活性为26.80 U,16.68 U和2.53 U。酚氧化酶原显著地受血浆和昆布多糖同时存在的激活,但两者单独存在时对酚氧化酶原的激活作用较弱。根虫瘟霉菌丝裂解液对酚氧化酶原有不同程度的激活作用,其激活作用在有血浆存在时显著增强,其酚氧化酶活性可提高2.9～3.4倍。各菌株间对酚氧化酶原的激活作用则以ARSEF1342菌株最强,ARSEF2699和F99101菌株次之,ARSEF1100菌株最弱。被激活的酚氧化酶可粘附于根虫瘟霉菌丝上并能产生黑化反应,各菌株间酚氧化酶粘附于ARSEF1342菌株的能力最强,粘附于ARSEF2699和F99101菌株的次之,粘附于ARSEF1100菌株的最弱。但酚氧化酶粘附于昆布多糖的能力显著强于各虫霉菌株,表明各菌株在一定程度上能逃避寄主的免疫识别;各菌株激活酚氧化酶原及酚氧化酶粘附于菌株强弱,与对小菜蛾毒力呈负相关性,表明高毒力菌株具有易逃避寄主免疫识别的趋向。
