Abstract: | Factors responsible for pupation of Trichogramma pretiosum Riley reared in vitro were partially purified. The active material was extracted with 76% ethanol from Manduca sexta (L.) hemolymph. The water soluble active fraction was chromatographed first on a Sephadex G-10® column and then on a C18 cartridge (reversed phase). After removing more than 99% of the original protein, 20% of the original pupation activity remained; this fraction, however, also contained about 20% of the original hemolymph carbohydrate. The pupation factor was further separated by DEAE-HPLC into two active carbohydrate containing fractions. HPLC of the active fraction from the C18 cartridge on an amino column produced some separation of the original carbohydrate, but no pupation activity was found in single fractions after this separation. However, when certain fractions were re-combined, weak pupation activity was obtained. The results indicate that when T. pretiosum were fed nutritionally rich artificial diets, at least two and possibly several polar, low molecular weight chemicals in M. sexta hemolymph were also needed and were responsible for growth and development of the parasitoids to the pupal stage. This is the first report describing the partial purification of insect growth factors affecting the growth and development of parasitoids. |
