模式生物果蝇在水环境污染物毒理学中的应用及研究进展

经济发展以及人类活动加速造成生态环境破坏,工业及生活污水的过度排放使得江河、海水的污染加剧,对人类健康的危害也日益加深。果蝇作为一种经典的模式生物,与其它动物模型相比,具有饲养成本低、生命周期短、繁殖能力强、遗传物质简单、突变表型多且易于观察等诸多优点,是一种应用广泛并适合于研究人类疾病和毒理学的模式生物。简述了水环境中挥发性有机化合物、氟喹诺酮类药物、重金属、农药和微生物毒素等污染物对果蝇的毒理学研究,提出了果蝇作为经典的模式生物在研究毒理学机制以及筛选抗毒药物的优势,并对未来的发展趋势做了展望。     

果蝇毛锤角细蜂对黑腹果蝇蛹不同龄期的选择性

黑腹果蝇Drosophila melanogaster Meigen是浆果类水果的果实害虫之一，对葡萄果实为害严重。毛锤角细蜂Trichopria drosophilae是黑腹果蝇的蛹寄生蜂之一。本文在温度26℃、相对湿度50%、光周期14L：10D的室内条件下，研究了毛锤角细蜂对不同日龄黑腹果蝇蛹的选择性。结果表明：毛锤角细蜂可寄生黑腹果蝇各日龄的蛹，但偏爱寄生预蛹。在寄主预蛹时，毛锤角细蜂的出蜂量、寄生率和选择系数分别为14.00头、35%和0.13，均显著高于1～3日龄蛹；不同日龄的黑腹果蝇蛹对毛锤角细蜂后代发育历期和雌蜂比没有显著影响。综上所述，黑腹果蝇的预蛹是毛锤角细蜂寄生的最佳时期。以黑腹果蝇为寄主时，研究毛锤角细蜂的寄生规律对于黑腹果蝇及其他果蝇的生物防治具有重要的指导意义。     

果蝇引诱物的引诱效果与杨梅甜度、反光率的关系

经室内筛选,得到一果蝇引诱物,并对其进行田间引诱效果试验。结果发现,在杨梅逐渐成熟至干枯过程中,杨梅甜度先增加后减少,反光率越来越低,果蝇引诱物的引诱效果则呈现先升高后降低再升高的趋势。     

果蝇对云南杨梅的危害及发生规律研究初报

通过对云南杨梅主产区的果蝇种类鉴定、栖息场所及危害发生规律调查,结果表明：危害云南杨梅果实的主要害虫为双翅目（Diptera）果蝇科（Drosopilidaes）果蝇属（Drosophila）果蝇.果蝇广泛分布于杨梅园及其周边多种生态环境,具有发酵物、潮湿阴凉的生态环境,是果蝇栖息的主要场所和主要虫源;成虫的日活动高峰期为清晨和黄昏;果蝇对杨梅发生危害时期较早,杨梅生长中后期,果实肉质生硬,味酸稍甜时即被果蝇取食危害,随着杨梅的不断成熟,危害加剧,且果蝇对不同杨梅品种的危害程度和空间分布存在显著差异.

果蝇抗菌肽DiptericinA基因的原核表达及其抑菌活性

为成功获得具有生物活性的Diptericin蛋白,利用RT-PCR方法从果蝇体内获得Diptericin A基因,经PCR、双酶切、序列测定等方法确认构建原核表达载体的正确性;重组质粒转化大肠杆菌BL21,Ampicillin抗性筛选工程菌株,经二步亲和层析纯化以及凝血酶切纯化后进行抑菌测验。结果表明:获得Diptericin A基因;成功构建原核表达载体;在大肠杆菌中实现Diptericin A-GST融合蛋白的胞内可溶性表达,表达量为315.4mg/L;获得Diptericin A抗菌肽单体,纯度达90%;抑菌检测证明,Diptericin A对大肠杆菌具有明显抑制活性,且呈剂量依赖性。     

樱桃果蝇田间诱捕方法比较*

 通过田间试验，比较了糖醋液和香蕉气味对樱桃果蝇（Drosophila suzukii）的引诱效果。结果显示，5种（A，B，C，D，E）不同组份配比的糖醋液均以诱集雌虫为主，其中糖醋液B的效果最好。改变糖醋液中白酒与食用醋的比例对糖醋液诱集樱桃果蝇成虫的效果没有显著影响。香蕉气味对樱桃果蝇成虫表现出显著的引诱效果，所诱到的成虫性比超过6∶1。在诱捕器上加挂红色气球后可加强糖醋液对成虫的诱集效果，但不能显著改变所诱得的成虫雌雄比。     

Insecticidal compounds from the essential oil of Chinese medicinal herb Atractylodes chinensis

BACKGROUND: In a screening programme for new agrochemicals from Chinese medicinal herbs, the essential oil of Atractylodes chinensis (DC.) Koidz was found to possess strong insecticidal activity against the common vinegar fly, Drosophila melanogaster L. The essential oil was extracted via hydrodistillation, and its constituents were determined by GC‐MS analysis. RESULTS: The main components of A. chinensis essential oil were β‐eudesmol (21.05%), β‐selinene (11.75%), γ‐elemene (7.16%) and isopetasam (5.36%). Bioactivity‐directed chromatographic separation on repeated silica gel columns led to the isolation of five compounds, namely atractylon, α‐elemol, β‐eudesmol, hinesol and β‐selinene. β‐Selinene, α‐elemol and hinesol showed pronounced contact toxicity against D. melanogaster adults, with LD₅₀ values of 0.55, 0.65 and 0.71 µg adult^?1 respectively. Atractylon and β‐eudesmol were also toxic to the fruit flies (LD₅₀ = 1.63 and 2.65 µg adult^?1 respectively), while the crude oil had an LD₅₀ value of 2.44 µg adult^?1. CONCLUSION: The findings suggested that the essential oil of Atractylodes chinensis and its active constituents may be explored as natural potential insecticides.

Spotted wing drosophila infestation of California strawberries and raspberries: economic analysis of potential revenue losses and control costs

BACKGROUND: Economic costs of spotted wing drosophila (SWD) include yield and associated revenue losses, labor and material costs for monitoring and management and revenue losses due to the closure of export markets should fruit from SWD‐infested regions be banned by trading partners. This analysis focuses on two types of loss in the California raspberry and strawberry industries: yield losses in the absence of management, and insecticide material costs on a per treatment basis. It computes the cost of a specific management program for raspberries in California's Central Coast region. RESULTS: Insecticide material and application costs per treatment and the cost of the management program are small relative to the yield losses in the absence of management that are observed by growers, researchers and others in initial infestations. CONCLUSION: It is difficult to evaluate precisely the share of pest management program costs due to SWD because insecticides are sometimes used to manage multiple pests, and because labor‐intensive field sanitation efforts to control SWD are recommended practices already. Given these considerations, this analysis finds that the benefits to SWD management well outweigh the costs examined here. Evaluating the efficacy of managing SWD is essential in assessing the risks that SWD poses and the benefits of pest management programs. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry
