氯虫苯甲酰胺对小菜蛾亚致死效应的研究

探讨亚致死剂量氯虫苯甲酰胺对小菜蛾2、3龄幼虫的亚致死效应,为氯虫苯甲酰胺的合理使用提供依据。采用药膜法确定氯虫苯甲酰胺对小菜蛾2龄和3龄幼虫的亚致死剂量(LC25、LC40),以试虫死亡率、取食量、化蛹时间、蛹重、羽化率为指标研究其对小菜蛾的亚致死效应。与对照相比,亚致死剂量氯虫苯甲酰胺处理的小菜蛾除死亡率显著增高外,幼虫生长明显受到抑制,幼虫至化蛹平均历期显著延长,取食量、蛹重和化蛹率明显降低。结果表明亚致死剂量氯虫苯甲酰胺对小菜蛾种群增长有一定抑制作用,对小菜蛾综合防治策略的制定有积极意义。     

Bioactivity of extracts and isolated compounds from Vitex polygama (Verbenaceae) and Siphoneugena densiflora (Myrtaceae) against Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

The effects of crude extracts, fractions and isolated compounds from Vitex polygama Cham. and Siphoneugena densiflora Berg were evaluated on the development of Spodoptera frugiperda JE Smith, a destructive insect pest of corn and several other crops. The extracts and fractions were incorporated into an artificial diet at 1 mg g(-1) and offered to the insect during its larval stage. Length and viability of larval and pupal stages as well as pupal weight were assessed. Isolated compounds were tested through superficial contamination of the diet at 0.1 mg g(-1). Weight and viability of ten-day-old larvae were determined. Methanolic and hydroalcoholic S. densiflora extracts caused 100% larval mortality, while leaf and fruit hydroalcoholic extracts from V. polygama were the most active. Among the isolated compounds, flavonoids presented the best insecticidal results, and tannins the best larval growth inhibition.     

多杀菌素对菜蛾绒茧蜂的致死和亚致死效应

以对多杀菌素高抗的小菜蛾纯合子品系作寄主饲养菜蛾绒茧蜂,用多杀菌素田间推荐使用浓度(25 mg/L)分别处理处于卵期、幼虫期和蛹期的绒茧蜂,其中卵期和幼虫期通过处理寄主幼虫间接处理,并测定该药剂对成虫的毒力,系统观察该杀虫剂对绒茧蜂各虫期的致死和亚致死作用。与对照相比,绒茧蜂卵期或幼虫期其寄主受药后,可导致蜂幼虫死于寄主体内或啮出寄主的过程中,使结茧化蛹率下降43% ~56%,成虫羽化率下降19% ~33%,成蜂雌性比下降11% ~25%,而成虫大小、寿命和寄生力未受显著影响;在蛹期受药使成虫羽化率下降10%,成蜂寿命缩短,但对成虫寄生力无显著影响;对成虫24 h的LC99为4.31 mg/L。结果表明,多杀菌素可进入寄主作用于其体内的蜂卵和幼虫,或直接作用于蜂蛹和成虫,从而对绒茧蜂各个虫态产生显著的致死和亚致死效应,尤以对成虫高毒。     

Responses of Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton) to pirimiphos-methyl, spinosad, and combinations of pirimiphos-methyl and synergized pyrethrins

Field control failures with pirimiphos-methyl against the rice moth, Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton), in Weslaco, Texas, USA, led us to investigate the susceptibility of this particular strain to pirimiphos-methyl, spinosad, pyrethrins synergized with piperonyl butoxide, and pirimiphos-methyl combined with synergized pyrethrins. In laboratory bioassays, 50 eggs of C cephalonica were exposed to untreated and insecticide-treated corn and sunflower seeds to determine larval survival after 21 days, egg-to-adult emergence after 49 days, and larval damage to seeds at both exposure periods. Pirimiphos-methyl at both 4 and 8 mg kg(-1) did not prevent larval survival or egg-to-adult emergence of C cephalonica on either corn or sunflower seeds, and seed damage was evident at both rates. The C cephalonica strain was highly susceptible to spinosad at 0.5 and 1 mg kg(-1). At both spinosad rates, reduction in larval survival, egg-to-adult emergence, and seed damage relative to the control treatment was > or = 93% on both corn and sunflower seeds. Pirimiphos-methyl and spinosad were generally more effective against C cephalonica on corn than sunflower seeds. The C cephalonica strain was completely controlled on corn treated with 1.5 mg kg(-1) of pyrethrins synergized with 15 mg kg(-1) of piperonyl butoxide. Many larvae survived and became adults on corn treated with synergized pyrethrins at < or = 0.75 mg kg(-1). Corn treated with pirimiphos-methyl at 4, 6 or 8 mg kg(-1) in combination with 0.38 to 1.5 mg kg(-1) of synergized pyrethrins reduced larval survival by > or = 95%, egg-to-adult emergence by > or = 97%, and seed damage by > or = 94%. Our results suggest that the C cephalonica strain can be controlled on corn by combining pirimiphos-methyl with synergized pyrethrins or with synergized pyrethrins at the labeled rate. Although spinosad is not currently labeled for use on stored corn and sunflower seeds, it appears to be effective against C cephalonica on both commodities at very low rates.     

Parasitization by Cotesia plutellae enhances detoxifying enzyme activity in Plutella xylostella

Insecticidal tests using diazinon showed that the mortality of Plutella xylostella larvae parasitized by Cotesia plutellae was reduced by 4.6-fold compared to that of the nonparasitized hosts. The use of chemicals with synergistic effect to insecticides in toxicity assay helps to elucidate the kind of enzyme involved in lowering insect mortality. Synergism of diethyl maleate and piperonyl butoxide with diazinon resulted to 2.4- and 1.9-fold increase, respectively, in susceptibility of parasitized larvae compared to those of nonparasitized larvae. These results indicated the possibility that the decrease in susceptibility to diazinon was due to the elevated activities of glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP), respectively. The GST activities in parasitized larvae were significantly higher than those of nonparasitized ones starting from three days post-parasitization until emergence of parasitoid larva. High GST activities during late parasitism could be attributed to both enzyme activities toward diazinon of parasitized P. xylostella larva itself and C. plutellae larva inside larval host. High GST activity one day after parasitization, although statistical significance was not detected, was caused by polydnavirus (PDV) and the venom of C. plutellae not by parasitoid larvae. Artificial injection of PDV plus venom demonstrated that the resulting increase in GST activity is similar to the increase brought by parasitization. High CYP activity after 3 days post-parasitization in parasitized larva was attributed mainly to the activity of parasitoid larva. Carboxylesterase activity in the parasitized host remained at a high level, while that in the nonparasitized host decreased slightly as pupation approaches. On the other hand, acetylcholinesterase activity also remained constant after parasitization until larval emergence, while that of the nonparasitized hosts decreased gradually as the host larvae approach pupation. These results were supported by inhibition tests using diazoxon in vitro.     

Toxicity of the chitin synthesis inhibitors,diflubenzuron and its dichloro-analogue,to Spodoptera littoralis larvae

The activities of the chitin synthesis inhibitors, diflubenzuron and PH 60–38, against Spodoptera littoralis larvae were assayed by feeding treated alfalfa or poisoned wheat bran baits, by allowing the larvae to imbibe sucrose-containing aqueous dispersions of the compounds, and by injection into larvae. PH 60–38 was less active than diflubenzuron. On alfalfa, diflubenzuron had to be fed for at least 2 days to prevent formation of normal pupae and emergence of adults. For very big (480–540 mg) larvae, feeding diflubenzuron at concentrations of 50 mg/litre for 2 days or 2.5 mg/litre for 3 days prevented adult emergence. For 200–250 mg larvae, this was achieved by feeding concentrations of 100 mg/litre for 2 days, 5 mg/litre for 3 days or 3.5 mg/litre for 4 days. In all larvae > 150 mg, mortality in feeding experiments occurred in the prepupal or the pupal stage. Only with 30–50 mg and 100–150 mg larvae was there considerable mortality during moults between larval instars, the larvae being unable to liberate themselves from the old larval skins and head capsules. Diflubenzuron incorporated into wheat bran baits at concentrations of from 2.5 to 10 000 μg/g killed approximately 70–90% of the insects. When imbibed, diflubenzuron was much less toxic as a wettable powder than as a liquid formulation but the two formulations were equitoxic when injected into the larvae.     

高幼虫密度胁迫对二化螟生长发育的影响

为明确二化螟幼虫群集密度对种群增长的影响,在室内用人工饲料饲养比较了不同幼虫密度对二化螟生长发育的影响。结果表明,高幼虫密度800头/盒胁迫下,二化螟雌、雄幼虫和蛹的发育更快,其幼虫+蛹历期分别比低密度100头/盒处理要快8.0 d和6.0 d;化蛹率和羽化率较100头/盒处理分别显著下降了25.7和25.0个百分点,且雌、雄蛹重分别减少了9.4 mg和4.8 mg;但对二化螟成虫性比、寿命、产卵量和卵孵化率无显著影响。低密度100头/盒处理下二化螟幼虫发育最好,其种群增长指数为56.9,化蛹率达61.4%,羽化率达57.7%,雌、雄蛹重分别为58.3 mg和43.0 mg,但其幼虫+蛹历期较长,雌虫为58.5 d,雄虫为53.9 d。高密度800头/盒胁迫下二化螟幼虫发育最差,其种群增长指数仅为24.1,化蛹率仅为35.7%,羽化率为32.7%,雌、雄蛹重分别为48.9 mg和38.2 mg,但其幼虫+蛹历期较短,雌虫为50.5 d,雄虫为47.9 d。表明在恒定的空间和有限的食物中,幼虫密度过大会导致种内竞争加剧,使得幼虫可能倾向以更快的速度化蛹,确保其存活率以更好地繁殖后代。     

Effects of methoxyfenozide on Lobesia botrana Den & Schiff (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) egg, larval and adult stages

The effect of the non-steroidal ecdysone agonist methoxyfenozide was evaluated against different developmental stages of the grape berry moth, Lobesia botrana Dennis & Schiffermuller (Lep, Tortricidae). Methoxyfenozide administered orally reduced the fecundity and fertility of adults treated with 1, 5 and 10 mg litre(-1); longevity was not affected. An LC(50) value of 4.5 mg litre(-1) was obtained when applied to eggs of less than 1 day old. Surface treatment was more effective than when applied by spraying. Administered into the diet, methoxyfenozide had a larvicidal effect; older larvae were more susceptible than younger larvae, with LC(50) values of 0.1 mg litre(-1) for L(1), 0.04 for L(3) and 0.02 for L(5). Larvae treated with sub-lethal doses throughout their lives did not emerge as adults at the highest doses (0.08, 0.04, 0.02 and 0.01 mg litre(-1)), with 65% and 40% emergence occurring for the lowest (0.005 and 0.0025 mg litre(-1)). Mortality occurred only in the larval stage.     

Effect of the ecdysone agonists,RH-2485 and tebufenozide,on the southwestern corn borer,Diatraea grandiosella

The effect of the ecdysone agonists RH-2485 (proposed name methoxyfenozide) and tebufenozide (RH-5992), was examined on eggs and larvae of the southwestern corn borer, Diatraea grandiosella Dyar. Both compounds exhibited a concentration-dependent ovicidal activity. More than 95% of eggs died when egg masses were dipped in solutions of 100 or 200 mg liter^-1 of either compound in acetone+distilled water (1+1 by volume). Although some eggs treated with 1 or 10 mg liter^-1 of the compounds hatched, the survival rate was low. Newly hatched larvae were fed for seven days on an artificial diet containing RH-2485 or tebufenozide. The LC₅₀ values were 0·049 mg kg^-1 for RH-2485 and 0·185 mg kg^-1 for tebufenozide, showing that RH-2485 was about four times more active than was tebufenozide. Although increasing the time of exposure to either compound decreased the LC₅₀ value significantly, the relative potency of RH-2485 versus tebufenozide was not changed. Newly ecdysed 4th-instar larvae fed with diets containing 0·125, 0·25 or 0·5 mg kg^-1 RH-2485 or tebufenozide ceased feeding approximately 8 h after exposure, indicating that larvae had prematurely entered a molting cycle. Larvae treated with RH-2485 ecdysed earlier and died more quickly than those treated with tebufenozide. Ingestion of sublethal concentrations of RH-2485 (0·005 and 0·01 mg kg^-1) or tebufenozide (0·03 and 0·06 mg kg^-1) retarded larval growth, and decreased pupal weight and adult emergence. Increasing exposure time to tebufenozide tended to increase the larval mortality, significantly retarded larval growth, and decreased the mean weights of male and female pupae and adult emergence. RH-2485 (0·125 and 0·25 mg kg^-1) and tebufenozide (0·25 and 0·5 mg kg^-1) were lethal to newly hatched larvae, even after diets containing these compounds were held for 20 days at 30°C under long days (16 h light: 8 h dark). Our results suggest that field trials to assess the potential of RH-2485 and tebufenozide to control D. grandiosella are warranted. © 1998 SCI     

瘦怒茧蜂的发育与生殖及对草地螟的控制作用

瘦怒茧蜂Orgilus ischnus Marshall是草地螟Loxostege sticticalis L.初龄幼虫寄生蜂。为探究它的生物学特性及其对草地螟的控害作用,本文在23 ℃、16L：8D光周期条件下,以1龄草地螟幼虫为寄主,测定了瘦怒茧蜂的发育历期和茧重、成虫生殖行为特征、能力和寿命,研究了瘦怒茧蜂对草地螟幼虫的功能反应和寄生率,探究了寄主幼虫的取食量及虫体大小与正常幼虫的差异。结果表明,瘦怒茧蜂卵和幼虫期为12.8 d,预蛹和蛹期10.5 d,世代历期23.2 d,平均茧重为4.1 mg。成蜂羽化当天即可交配产卵寄生,属卵育型,平均交配时间为49 s,雌蜂平均产卵量为100.5粒,产卵高峰期分别为交配后第4 d和第8 d,雌、雄蜂寿命分别为11和14 d。在5～40头/瓶（650 mL）8个密度条件下,瘦怒茧蜂的寄生量随草地螟幼虫密度的增加而增加,当密度≥15头/瓶时,寄生率会随幼虫密度的增加而减小,功能反应属HollingⅡ型;寄主幼虫一生取食量为106.7 mg,仅为正常幼虫的21.3%,寄主幼虫第6和12 d的体重、大小均极显著低于正常幼虫。本文研究结果明确了瘦怒茧蜂基本的生物学特性,证明该蜂对草地螟控害作用显著,为改善、提高草地螟的可持续控制技术提供技术支撑。     

氟铃脲对韭菜迟眼蕈蚊不同虫态的致毒特点及毒力

为明确氟铃脲对韭菜迟眼蕈蚊不同虫态的致毒特点及毒力,采用胃毒触杀联合毒力法、药液定量滴加法及药膜法分别对韭菜迟眼蕈蚊卵、幼虫、蛹、成虫进行了生物测定。结果表明,经氟铃脲处理的0.5~1、1.5~2和2.5~3日龄韭菜迟眼蕈蚊卵至孵化24 h后,LC_(50)依次为2.27、1.60和0.64 mg/L,对1.5~3日龄卵的毒力高于对0.5~1日龄卵;经氟铃脲处理的2日龄卵、2龄幼虫、4龄幼虫、1日龄和3日龄蛹至羽化时LC_(50)分别为0.06、0.30、0.34、24.05和27.42 mg/L,毒力程度随韭菜迟眼蕈蚊发育而逐步下降;对蛹和成虫毒力较低,100 mg/L氟铃脲染毒1、3日龄蛹的羽化率分别高于10%和20%;药膜法100、1 000 mg/L氟铃脲处理成虫24 h,校正死亡率低于20%。研究表明,氟铃脲对韭菜迟眼蕈蚊各虫态的生长发育均有不利影响,抑制卵的孵化并导致初孵幼虫存活率降低;对幼虫毒杀作用较慢,对蛹及成虫阶段毒力较低。     

Laboratory evaluation of the insect growth regulator lufenuron againstHelicoverpa armigera on cotton

An insect growth regulator (IGR), lufenuron (Match 5EC), was tested for its toxicity toHelicoverpa armigera on cotton. Potency of the IGR against the larval stage of the pest was demonstrated with respect to larval instars; the LC₉₀ values of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th instar larvae were 5.63, 7.89, 8.03, 11.39 and 14.76 mg a.i.l ⁻¹, respectively. However, different larval instars did not differ significantly with respect to LC₅₀ and LC₁₀. IGR-treated larvae had swollen heads and were significantly smaller (1.5–2.3 mm) than the untreated control (2.9 mm). Larval weight was significantly reduced from 190 mg in the control to 50–70 mg in the lufenuron treatment. IGR treatment in the larval stage significantly affected both pupal length and pupal weight. Pupal duration of the test insect was significantly extended by IGR treatment. Pupal deformities, including an inability to shed the last larval skin and formation of larval-pupal intermediates, occurred following treatment. A significant reduction in adult emergence was recorded. In addition, abnormalities in the form of development of cavities in the forewings of adult were evident. A significant decline in fecundity was noted in the studies. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting Feb. 3, 2003.     

Induction of prolonged larval feeding stage by juvenile hormone analogues inTribolium Castaneum

Dietary ZR-512 and ZR-619 at concentrations of 10 — 1000 ppm induced prolongation of the larval feeding period up to tenfold, increasing larval weight up to double that of untreated larvae. A comparison study of four juvenoids, using 200 ppm of ZR-512, ZR-515, ZR-619 or ZR-777, showed that ZR-515 elicits the highest larval weight (6.2 mg) and ZR-777 the lowest (3.6 mg). In all cases a pronounced enhancement of larval weight — of 50 — 250% relative to untreated larvae (2.4 mg) — was obtained.Tr. castaneum larvae reared up to their 3rd instars on a diet containing 100 ppm of ZR-512, ZR-515, ZR-619 or ZR-777 and then transferred to a juvenile hormone-free diet, were not affected. The period between 4th instar larva and pupation should therefore be considered as critical for juvenile hormone effect. The induced prolongation of the larval stage after juvenile hormone treatment was followed by a pronounced enhancement of cuticle phenoloxidase activity, indicating an alteration of the larval biochemical processes. Although juvenile hormone treatment inhibitsTr. castaneum pupation and emergence, it markedly prolongs larval feeding stage and weight and thus accelerates damage.     

Toxicity and biochemical study of two insect growth regulators, buprofezin and pyriproxyfen, on cotton leafworm Spodoptera littoralis

Lethal and sublethal effects of two insect growth regulators (IGRs) buprofezin and pyriproxyfen were evaluated on larvae of cotton leafworm Spodoptera littoralis. Activity of chitinase and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) in surviving larvae after treatment was carried out in order to investigate the biochemical influences of these compounds. The compounds were low toxic against the larvae at 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0-fold of the field application rate. However, the overall mortalities within 6 days of feeding at 2.0-fold were 46.67% and 100% for buprofezin and pyriproxyfen, respectively. Larval weight gain was considerably decreased as concentration increased. Pyriproxyfen showed high antifeedant activity in a concentration-dependent manner, and larvae stopped to eat from the third day with high dose. Conversely, buprofezin did not significantly show antifeedant except with high concentration (3000 mg (a.i.)/kg diet) that gave 80.68%. The high doses of both compounds showed adverse effects on pupae, and emergence of adults. Buprofezin at the recommended dose (1500 mg (a.i.)/kg diet) caused 93.33% pupation and 53.33% emergence of adults. Otherwise, pyriproxyfen caused 21.33% pupation and zere emergence of adults at the recommended dose (75 mg (a.i.)/kg diet) compared to 100% pupation, and 96.30% emergence of adults in the control. Both compounds varied in their influences on chitinase and PPO activity, and these enzymes could have relation with toxicity of buprofezin and pyriproxyfen against S. littoralis larvae.     

Effectiveness of a naturally derived insecticide, spinosad, against the pine processionary moth Thaumetopoea wilkinsoni Tams (Lepidoptera: Thaumetopoeidae) under laboratory conditions

The pine processionary moth Thaumetopoea wilkinsoni Tams is a serious pest on pine trees in southwestern Turkey. The efficacy of a naturally derived insecticide, spinosad, on fourth-fifth instar larvae of T. wilkinsoni was studied under laboratory conditions. The product exhibited strong larvicidal activity and at doses above 5 mg litre(-1) caused > 90% mortality in the fourth-fifth larval stages of the species after 72 h. At 72 h the LD50 and LD90 values were 3.26 and 5.69 mg litre(-1) respectively. The results showed that spinosad is highly effective on T. wilkinsoni larvae.     

四种低毒杀虫剂对小菜蛾生长发育及繁殖的亚致死效应

为系统评价4种低毒杀虫剂对小菜蛾Plutella xylostella（L.）的综合控制作用,采用叶片浸渍法处理小菜蛾3龄幼虫,测定了虫酰肼、氟啶脲、茚虫威和虫螨腈的亚致死浓度（LC₂₅）对小菜蛾生长发育和繁殖力的影响。结果表明,4 种药剂亚致死浓度处理使小菜蛾3~4龄幼虫发育历期延长0.43~1.93 d,平均单头雌、雄蛹重分别减轻0.83~1.31 mg和0.19~1.09 mg ,幼虫的化蛹率及羽化率则分别降低11.2%~34.3%和21.7%~33.6%,以氟啶脲和茚虫威处理的影响较为显著。药剂处理后成虫平均产卵量减少30.15~60.21粒/雌,卵孵化率降低8.85%~19.65%,以虫酰肼效果较为明显;虫酰肼、氟啶脲、茚虫威均显著降低小菜蛾的交配成功率。     

噻虫胺等药剂对韭菜迟眼蕈蚊的致毒效应

为了明确新烟碱类药剂对韭菜迟眼蕈蚊的毒力,采用管测药膜法和药液定量滴加法测定了噻虫胺等6种药剂对韭菜迟眼蕈蚊不同虫态的毒力,并研究了噻虫胺、甲氨基阿维菌素苯甲酸盐和辛硫磷亚致死浓度对其4龄幼虫生长发育和繁殖的影响。结果表明,新烟碱类杀虫剂噻虫胺、吡虫啉和噻虫嗪对成虫的击倒毒力均较高,分别是阿维菌素的5.75、3.86和3.51倍;6种药剂对韭菜迟眼蕈蚊卵的毒力均较低;对2龄和4龄幼虫的毒力,均以噻虫胺最高,LC₅₀分别为0.339 mg/L和1.020 mg/L,分别是阿维菌素的27.00倍和25.23倍。用噻虫胺亚致死剂量处理韭菜迟眼蕈蚊4龄幼虫,其发育历期和蛹期延长,蛹重、化蛹率、成虫羽化率、单雌产卵量和卵孵化率均降低。     

亚致死浓度氯虫苯甲酰胺对小菜蛾生物学特性的影响

探讨亚致死剂量氯虫苯甲酰胺对小菜蛾3龄幼虫的亚致死效应,为氯虫苯甲酰胺的合理使用提供依据。采用叶片药膜法测定亚致死剂量氯虫苯甲酰胺对小菜蛾3龄幼虫生物学特性的影响。结果表明:与对照相比,亚致死浓度的氯虫苯甲酰胺处理后,小菜蛾4龄龄期和蛹期明显延长,化蛹率、羽化率、单雌产卵量明显降低。另外蛹重也明显低于对照。这表明亚致死剂量氯虫苯甲酰胺对小菜蛾种群增长有一定抑制作用,对小菜蛾综合防治策略的制定有积极意义。     

Phototoxicity of the allelochemical, α-terthienyl,to larvae of Manduca sexta (L.) (Sphingidae)

α-Terthienyl, a common chemical constituent in the Asteraceae, was administered to fifth-stadium larvae (Day 1) of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta (L.) (Sphingidae), by incorporation into artificial diet and by topical application. Toxicity toward larvae was elicite by simultaneous exposure to this allelochemical and uv-A irradiation (320–400 nm). Larval treatment with either α-terthienyl or uv-A irradiation alone caused no apparent adverse effects. A single, ingested dose of α-terthienyl (50 μg g larval weight^?1), followed by irradiation for 4 hr, resulted in delayed and abnormal pupal formation with no subsequent adult emergence. Topical application of the plant compound (50 μg g^?1) and uv-A irradiation led to tissue necrosis that affected both sclerotization and melanization of the pupal case in later development.     

无患子皂苷对甜菜夜蛾的影响及其化学成分分析

为明确无患子皂苷对甜菜夜蛾的控制作用,本试验分别用添加无患子皂苷(0.25、0.5、1、2、4、8、16 mg/g)的混毒饲料喂养甜菜夜蛾2龄幼虫,测定甜菜夜蛾幼虫存活率、幼虫发育历期、蛹重、化蛹率、卵孵化率、性比等指标。采用液相色谱-质谱联用仪(HPLC-MS)分析无患子皂苷中的主要化学成分。结果表明,喂饲后72 h,取食4 mg/g混皂苷饲料的甜菜夜蛾幼虫开始死亡,其幼虫存活率随皂苷浓度的升高而降低;相比空白对照组,取食4 mg/g混皂苷饲料的幼虫,其幼虫期延长8.55 d(P<0.05),蛹重降低了41.13%(P<0.05),化蛹率下降46.43%(P<0.05)。取食0.5 mg/g以及2 mg/g混皂苷饲料的幼虫其卵孵化率分别比空白对照降低9.61%、16.12%;取食混有皂苷的饲料会扰乱甜菜夜蛾的性比,其中混入2 mg/g皂苷的处理对其性比影响最大,雌性比为25.00%。从无患子皂苷中鉴定出10种皂苷类化合物,共鉴别出6种常春藤型三萜皂苷,3种齐墩果酸型三萜皂苷,1种大戟烷型三萜皂苷。
