拟寄生蜂的寄主标记研究进展

拟寄生蜂常借助寄主标记信息素 (host marking pheromone, HMP) 来辨别已寄生寄主和健康寄主,避免过寄生和多寄生,减少后代的种内和种间竞争。寄主标记有外部标记、内部标记和“容器”及区域标记3种方式。HMP来源于拟寄生蜂的杜氏腺、毒腺、输卵管、卵巢、卵或咽侧体,由触角或产卵器感受。目前已鉴定出几种拟寄生蜂的HMP,多数为饱和与不饱和烃类的混合物,但卡氏盾痣细蜂Dendrocerus carpenteri的HMP是保幼激素。拟寄生蜂对寄主标记的反应受HMP持效期,拟寄生蜂内部状况如载卵量、年龄、经验和学习,及外部条件如拟寄生蜂和健康寄主种群密度以及寄主种类的影响。本文还讨论了HMP研究的理论和实际意义。     

寄生蜂成虫在寄主搜索过程中的学习行为

综述了寄生蜂寄主搜索过程中的学习行为的概念、过程、适应性意义及影响因子。学习是寄生蜂的一种普遍特征,但学习基本上只发生在成虫期,其中联系性学习是一个主要特征。学习可产生启动和嗜好性学习二种效应,在寄生蜂搜索寄主的各个步骤中发挥重要作用,使其在复杂多变的生存环境中可高效地识别和利用各种有用信息,提高搜索效率。学习的潜力及效应可依寄生蜂和寄主的食性专化程度、寄主的发育阶段、寄生蜂自身的生理状态及环境中刺激的性质等因子而变化。对寄生蜂学习行为的了解有助于发展对其行为调控的技术,提高寄生蜂对害虫控制的效能。     

寄生蜂多分DNA病毒对寄主昆虫的免疫抑制作用

多分DNA病毒（PDV）是在膜翅目姬蜂科和茧蜂科寄生蜂体内的一类很独特的病毒,寄生蜂产卵时,PDV随同卵和萼液一起被注射入寄主体内,能干扰寄主的细胞免疫和体液免疫,该病毒直接侵染或间接作用于血细胞,主要是浆细胞和颗粒细胞,导致血细胞变圆或凋亡,PDV也能抑制血淋巴酚氧化酶活性,诱导抗菌因子的大量合成,最近有关研究主要集中在病毒基因的表达和伴随寄主血细胞功能失常的分子事件上,一些寄主蜂的PDV与其他因子,如卵巢蛋白,畸形细胞或蜂毒等协同发挥作用。

寄生蜂寄主选择行为研究进展

寄生蜂是膜翅目昆虫中的重要类群,在自然界种类多,数量大。据文献报道全世界膜翅目昆虫大约有10万种”’,其中许多种类与农林害虫长期保持一定的制约关系,在害虫防治中占有重要地位。由于大量使用化学农药导致害虫的抗药性增加,利用天敌昆虫来防治害虫越来越显示出其重要性和优越性。但是,直到近20年来,寄生蜂的寄生行为才受到重视,并给予了广泛的、深入的研究”－‘’严格地讲,寄生蜂应该称为拟寄生蜂,它与通常所说的寄生昆虫像虱子、臭虫等有明显不同,主要区别在于：1．寄生仅仅发生在未成熟阶段,而成虫阶段营自由生活;2．寄…     

寄生蜂取食寄主特性及其在害虫生物防治中的作用

许多寄生性天敌昆虫的雌虫不仅寄生寄主, 而且还能取食寄主。在卵育型（synovigenic）寄生蜂类群中, 取食寄主行为是较为普遍的现象。本文综合近20年相关研究进展, 从寄生蜂类群、取食类型、生态学意义及影响因子等方面对寄生蜂的取食寄主行为进行了归纳总结。寄生蜂通过取食不仅可以杀死寄主, 直接起到控制害虫种群数量的作用, 还能通过取食策略为卵的成熟和再生提供营养来源, 对延长雌虫的寿命也有一定的帮助。对取食寄主行为的了解可为筛选优势寄生性天敌种类、评估寄生蜂在害虫生物防治中的作用提供重要信息。     

拟寄生蜂搜索产卵过程中对寄主的竞争

综述拟寄生蜂搜索产卵过程中对寄主竞争的最新研究进展.这类竞争具有四种方式,即标记寄主、杀卵和杀幼、守护寄主和捕食寄主.（1）标记寄主常涉及寄主标记信息素,这是由雌蜂在产卵前、产卵时或产卵后分泌的化学物质.寄主标记信息素常介导拟寄生蜂对已寄生和健康寄主的辨别、减少过寄生和多寄生、减轻种内和种间竞争压力.（2）雌蜂遇到已寄生寄主时,很多种类杀死前一雌蜂遗留的卵和幼虫,再产下自己的卵.雌蜂使用三种方法杀卵和杀幼,即产卵器穿刺、取食和使用有毒物质.通过杀卵和杀幼,产卵雌蜂清除了前一雌蜂遗留的后代,主动改善了寄主品质,从而有利于自身后代的生存.（3）守护寄主在肿腿蜂科、缘腹细蜂科、金小蜂科、缨小蜂科和茧蜂科中均有报道,守护者驱逐入侵者以保护后代及健康寄主.（4）捕食寄主不仅减少了健康寄主数量,且直接导致已寄生寄主中拟寄生蜂卵和幼虫的死亡.雌蜂一般在体内成熟卵量较少时捕食寄主.讨论了研究拟寄生蜂搜索产卵过程中竞争寄主的理论意义和实际应用价值.     

生物因子对寄生蜂滞育的影响

在影响寄生蜂滞育的生物因子中,寄主及亲代是主要影响因子。寄主可以从种类、类型、生理状态及丰富度等方面影响寄生蜂的滞育:寄生不同种类的寄主,寄生蜂的滞育反应、滞育进度、滞育比例以及光周期反应表现等均有不同;寄主类型的影响在蚜茧蜂类群中表现最为突出,不同寄主类型能对蚜茧蜂的滞育诱导产生不同影响;此外,寄主生理状态和寄主丰富度也是影响寄生蜂滞育的重要因子。亲代对寄生蜂滞育的影响则通过其所经历的环境条件以及自身因素等方面来表现:亲代经历的光周期和温度等能显著影响子代的滞育,甚至起完全决定作用;在亲代自身因素的影响中,亲代虫龄差异是主要因素。本文同时对寄生蜂滞育的研究及应用前景也一并作了展望。     

寄生蜂携带的多DNA病毒的起源及其特性

病毒在通常意义上都是有害的寄生生物,但是有一类特殊的多DNA病毒(PDV)却成为在数量庞大的寄生蜂的生活史中不可或缺的共生病毒.PDV随着寄生蜂的卵一起被注入到寄主的体内,调控寄主的免疫和发育生理,从而确保幼蜂在寄主体内生存发育.PDV的基因组整合在寄生蜂的基因组内,因此PDV病毒粒子的形成并非在寄主受到侵染的组织内,而是位于寄生蜂卵巢的特定细胞(卵萼细胞)中,其编码的蛋白质几乎没有病毒结构性蛋白,主要的表达产物都用于调控寄主的生理活动.PDV基因编码序列比对分析结果显示,茧蜂病毒(BV)与致病性的裸病毒nudivirus和杆状病毒baculovirus存在一定的亲缘关系,然而这些同源基因已高度分化,具有不同的生物学特性,同时也不能确定这些基因是否还具有原始的功能.在寄生蜂基因组中尚有许多与裸病毒和杆状病毒类似的基因,其中一部分基因能够编码BV病毒粒子的结构蛋白,其表达模式亦与PDV病毒粒子的形成有关.由于PDV使用了与这2种病毒类似的传播途径,才使得寄生蜂的PDV基因转入寄主体内发挥作用,虽然这不能说明PDV属于这2种病毒,至少存在PDV从这2种病毒发展而来的可能性.     

寄生蜂核型特征及其在分类上的应用

回顾了寄生性膜翅目昆虫（寄生蜂）染色体数目和核型的研究情况及其在寄生蜂分类中的应用,并对寄生蜂核型分类的前景作了讨论。核型对众多的寄生性膜翅目类群来说可以提供许多分类上的信息,并在种类研究上作用最为显著。通过核型数据的进一步积累和染色体显带方法的进一步应用,寄生蜂的核型分类学将得到进一步的发展。     

SELECTION AND STRAIN SPECIFICITY OF COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN SNAIL INTERMEDIATE HOSTS AND THEIR PARASITIC SCHISTOSOMES

Many theoretical models of host-parasite coevolution assume that variation in host resistance to parasite infection is, at least partially, genetically determined and specific to the strain of infecting parasite. However, very few experimental studies have been conducted to test this assumption in animal-parasite systems. Biomphalaria glabrata snails serve as the intermediate hosts of Schistosoma mansoni. Although some snails are resistant to infection, there is no evidence of fixation of resistance in field populations. Two possible explanations for this are high fitness costs associated with resistance and a dynamic coevolution between parasite and host, perhaps involving matching alleles or gene-for-gene interactions. Two strains of B. glabrata were artificially selected for either resistance or susceptibility to each of two strains of S. mansoni parasite for three generations. Third-generation snails were then were exposed to either the parasite strain to which they had been selected or to a different parasite strain. In both host strains, resistance and susceptibility (compatibility) were found to be heritable. Moreover, compatibility to one parasite strain was not associated with compatibility to another strain, implying no genetic trade-off. Our results are discussed in terms of potential mechanisms of resistance in this host-parasite system and their implications to general coevolutionary theory.     

THE EVOLUTION OF PARASITES FROM THEIR HOSTS: A CASE STUDY IN THE PARASITIC RED ALGAE

Morphological similarities of many parasites and their hosts have led to speculation that some groups of plant, animal, fungal, and algal parasites may have evolved directly from their hosts. These parasites, which have been termed adelphoparasites in the botanical literature, and more recently, agastoparasites in the insect literature, may evolve monophyletically from one host and radiate secondarily to other hosts or, these parasites may arise polyphyletically, each arising from its own host. In this study we compare the internal transcribed spacer regions of the nuclear ribosomal repeats of species and formae specialis (host races) included in the red algal parasite genus Asterocolax with its hosts, which all belong to the Phycodrys group of the Delesseriaceae and with closely related nonhost taxa of the Delesseriaceae. These analyses reveal that species of Asterocolax have evolved polyphyletically. Asterocolax erythroglossi from the North Atlantic host Erythroglossum laciniatum appears to have evolved from its host, whereas taxa included in the north Pacific species Asterocolax gardneri have had two independent origins. Asterocolax gardneri from the host Polyneura latissima probably arose directly from this host. In contrast, all other A. gardneri formae specialis appear to have originated from either Phycodrys setchellii or P. isabelliae and radiated secondarily onto other closely related taxa of the Phycodrys group, including Nienburgia andersoniana and Anisocladella pacifica. Gamete crossing experiments confirm that A. gardneri from each host is genetically isolated from both its host, and from other A. gardneri and their hosts. Cross-infection experiments reveal that A. gardneri develops normally only on its natural host, although some abberrant growth may occur on alternate hosts. The ability of red algal parasites to radiate secondarily to other red algal taxa, where they may become isolated genetically and speciate, suggests that this process of speciation is not a “genetic dead end” but one that may give rise to related clusters of parasite species.     

CUCKOO HOSTS SHIFT FROM ACCEPTING TO REJECTING PARASITIC EGGS ACROSS THEIR LIFETIME

One of the best‐known outcomes of coevolution between species is the rejection of mimetic parasite eggs by avian hosts, which has evolved to reduce costly cuckoo parasitism. How this behavioral adaptation varies along the life of individual hosts remains poorly understood. Here, we identify for the first time, lifetime patterns of egg rejection in a parasitized long‐lived bird, the magpie Pica pica and show that, during the years they were studied, some females accept, others reject, and some others modify their response to model eggs, in all cases switching from acceptance to rejection. Females tested in their first breeding attempt always accepted the model egg, even those individuals whose mothers were egg rejecters. A longitudinal analysis showed that the probability of egg rejection increased with the relative age of the female, but was not related to the risk of parasitism in the population. We conclude that ontogeny plays a fundamental role in the process leading to egg rejection in magpies.
