Investigations on side-effects of the mixed biocide GCSC-BtA on different predators of Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep., Plutellidae) in southeastern China

The present paper deals with laboratory studies on side-effects of the mixed biocide GCSC-BtA on Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep., Plutellidae) and its predators, e.g. Amblyseius longispinosus (Evans) (Acari, Phytoseiidae), Erigonidium graminicola (Sundvall) (Araneae, Linyphiidae), Orius similis Zheng (Het., Anthocoridae) and Coccinella septempunctata L.(Col., Coccinellidae), in comparison to the commercial insecticides, e.g. Abamectin, Tebufenozide, Dichlorvos, Cartap and Lambda-cyhalothrin.The results showed that GCSC-BtA was highly toxic to the 3^rd instar of P. xylostella with 91.18% mortality, followed by Cartap with 84.38%, Abamectin with 78.00%, Tebufenozide with 75.57%, Lambda-cyhalothrin with 63.75% and Dichlorvos with 50.86% mortality. On the other hand, GCSC-BtA was found to be comparatively less toxic to the predators, causing 31.11%, 13.33%, 11.54% and 6.00% mortalities in A. longispinosus, E. graminicola, O. similis and C. septempunctata, respectively. For comparison, the mortalities recorded for Abamectin, Tebufenozide, Dichlorvos, Cartap, Lambda-cyhalothrin were 72.94%, 55.55%, 70.00%, 53.26% and 98.85% in A. longispinosus, 46.51%, 55.10%, 60.00%, 46.00% and 73.68% in E. graminicola, 22.00%, 16.00%, 35.71%, 26.78% and 81.03% in O. similis, 15.55%, 19.64%, 28.00%, 16.66% and 41.79% in C. septempunctata, respectively.     

Influence of mixed biocide GCSC-BtA on the pupae and adult stages of Apanteles plutellae Kurd. (Hym., Braconidae) and its host. Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep., Plutellidae)

This paper deals with the influence of the mixed biocide GCSC-BtA on the pupal and adult stages of Apanteles plutellae Kurd. (Hym., Braconidae) and its host, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep., Plutellidae). The results show that mortalities of the pupae of P. xylostella in the direct-dip bioassay were 84.67%, that of the adults in the residue bioassay at 1.2500mg/ml concentration of GCSC-BtA were 78.00% which were significantly higher than the mortality values for the pupae with 54.62% and adults with 48.13% of A. plutellae. In contrast, cypermethrin showed extremely high toxicity to the pupae with 94.58% and adults with 86.00% mortality values of A. plutellae as compared to the low mortality values of 42.14% for the pupae and 32.11% for the adults of P. xylostella, with the same concentrations and bioassay methods. The LC₅₀ values of GCSC-BtA were 0.3402, 0.5516 and 1.2405, 1.9480mg/ml for the pupae and adults of P. xylostella and A. plutellae, respectively, while the LC₅₀ values for cypermethrin were 1.5652, 2.3471 and 0.1096, 0.1152mg/ml, respectively. GCSC-BtA was found more toxic to the pupae and adults of P. xylostella and safer to the pupae and adults of A. plutellae than cypermethrin. The possibilty of using GCSC-BtA against P. xylostella under partial control by A. plutellae in vegetable fields is discussed.

田间小菜蛾抗药性监测及毒理机制研究

田间监测结果表明，福州地区小菜蛾Plutella xylostella(L.)已对生产上常用的各类杀虫剂产生不同程度的抗性，从9月至次年5年期间，田间小菜蛾表现出较高水平的抗性，而在8月份则表现出明显低的抗性水平，短期高温和长期低温的环境条件可明显抑制小菜蛾幼虫的AChE和CarE活性，但短期低温的环境条件对小菜蛾幼虫的AChE和CarE活性影响不大，饲养温度的变化不会影响小菜蛾幼虫AChE和Ki值，但在较高的酶与杀虫剂的反应温度下，有机磷对小菜蛾、菜青虫和黄曲条跳甲AChE的抑制作用显著增高，此外，探讨了田间影响小菜蛾抗性水平的环境因素及毒理学机制。     

溴氰虫酰胺对小菜蛾的田间防效及其在花椰菜中的残留与消解动态

通过田间试验研究了溴氰虫酰胺对小菜蛾的田间防效,分析了露地栽培条件下溴氰虫酰胺在花椰菜上的消解动态和最终残留情况。结果表明:田间药效试验中10%溴氰虫酰胺可分散油悬浮剂按推荐高剂量（有效成分21 g/hm2）施药后24 h~7 d对小菜蛾的防效为92.8%~98.3%;按2倍推荐高剂量（有效成分42 g/hm2）施药,溴氰虫酰胺在花椰菜上的消解半衰期为3.86 d,其残留超标风险与田间用药量、用药次数正相关。建议生产中采用10%溴氰虫酰胺可分散油悬浮剂以有效成分21 g/hm2的剂量用药,每季最多施药2次,露地栽培条件下花椰菜上安全间隔期为3 d。     

Pathogenic effects of Xenorhabdus nematophilus and Photorhabdus luminescens (Enterobacteriaceae) against pupae of the Diamondback Moth, Plutella xylostella (L.)

The relationship between Xenorhabdus nematophilus and Photorhabdus luminescens, the bacterial symbionts of the entomopathogenic nematodes Steinernema carpocapsae and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, against the diamondback moth, P. xylostella (L.), pupae showed the pathogenic capability of P. luminescens to be over that of X. nematophilus. They gave 60 and 40% mortality with LC₅₀ values of 5×10⁴ and 5.5×10⁵ cells/ml, respectively.The number of bacterial cells influences the rate of killing the pupae of P. xylostella and a direct correlation between mortality of the pupae, percentage of deformed adults and the spraying dose with significant differences were observed. An inverse correlation found between the no. of eggs laid/female, percentage of hatching, adult survival and the spraying dose. These bacterial effects have been attributed to different toxic bacterial enzymes which damage the haemocytes and inhibit activation of the humoral immune system of the insect.

系统研究了阿维菌素(avermectin)系列化合物在不同温度和光照下对小菜蛾的毒力效应.结果表明,该系列化合物对小菜蛾幼虫毒力在一定温度范围内符合正温度系数规律.阿巴菌素(abamectin)对小菜蛾幼虫的触杀毒力在16～28℃范围内提高了16倍左右,在22～28℃范围内增幅较大;依维菌素(ivermectin)在16～31℃范围内提高了19倍左右,并在22～25℃范围内增幅较大;埃玛菌素(emamectin)在16～31℃范围内提高了10倍左右.胃毒毒力结果表明,阿巴菌素在16～28℃范围内提高了30多倍;伊维菌素在16～31℃范围内提高了近40倍.另外,埃玛菌素表现出了极高的胃毒作用且随温度变化的幅度较大,其毒力在16～28℃范围内可提高1000倍以上.采用正交旋转组合设计方法研究表明,阿巴菌素对小菜蛾的毒力与浓度及施药后无光照时间有正交互关系,而与紫外光照时间和光照强度有负交互关系.     

家蚕的一种微孢子虫对小菜蛾的致病力测定

测定了从家蚕体内分离的一种微孢子虫Vairimorpha sp.对小菜蛾的致病力。室内试验结果表明,当起始侵染期为小菜蛾2龄幼虫,浓度为1×10~6孢子/ml时对当代小菜蛾的致病力最高,幼虫的死亡率可达80.00％～82.67％,蛹死亡率可达50.00％～52.94％,而小菜蛾雌成虫的产卵量由对照的249.64～278.38粒/雌下降到120.56～126.72粒/雌,产卵量下降50％左右;当起始侵染期为3龄幼虫,浓度为1×10~6孢子/ml时,当代幼虫的死亡率只有40.00％～61.33％,与起始侵染期为2龄时相差很大,蛹死亡率和成虫每雌产卵量下降率与起始侵染期为2龄时差异不大。另外,家蚕微孢子虫还可通过垂直传染方式影响下代小菜蛾幼虫的死亡率。

Efficiency of the mixed biocide GCSC-BtA against vegetable pests of different arthropod orders in the south-eastern China

The present paper deals with the efficiency of the mixed biocide GCSC-BtA against vegetable pests of five orders of arthropod insects in the south-eastern China, i.e., diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.); green peach aphid, Myzus persicae (Sulzer); yellow-fanded flea beetle, Phyllotreta vittata Fabricius; vegetable leaf miner, Phytomyza nigricornis Macquart; and vegetable spider mite, Tetranychus neocaledonicus Andre. The results show that the mixed biocide GCSC-BtA has a higher efficacy of control against all of the five pests than the commercial biocide B.t. and insecticide Diazinon. GCSC-BtA gave a higher mortality value of 92.18% against P. xylostella as compared to the biocide B.t. with a value of 64.70% and Diazinon with a value of 50.00%. Similar mortalities were obtained with the other four pests regarding the efficacy of the three products tested against them.The concentration-mortality regression equations were calculated by the probit analysis, from which the average mortalities were calculated. The values calculated for GCSC-BtA were 81.13% for P. xylostella, 75% for M. persicae and T. neocaledonicus, 69.23% for P. vittata, and 61.03% for P. nigricornis as compared to those caused by Diazinon: 33.33%, 27.42%, 66.31%, 44.54%, 19.65% for P. xylostella, M. persicae, P. vittata, P. nigricornis, and T. neocaledonicus, respectively. Based on LC₅₀, P. xylostella was most susceptible to GCSC-BtA with a LC₅₀ value of 0.3445, followed by B.t. with a value of 0.8404 and Diazinon with a value of 1.3160. The LC₅₀ value of GCSC-BtA for M. persicae was 0.4660 which was about three times less than that of Diazinon. LC₅₀ value of GCSC-BtA for P. vittata was 0.3954 which was about the same as that of Diazinon. P. nigricornis and T. neocaledonicus were also much more susceptible to GCSC-BtA than to B.t. and Diazinon. It is concluded that GCSC-BtA kills more target pests than B.t. and is more effective than Diazinon in controlling the vegetable pests.     

绿薄荷茎和叶的乙醇提取物对小菜蛾拒食和产卵忌避活性的影响

为有效控制小菜蛾的危害,明确绿薄荷对小菜蛾的防治效果,采用95%乙醇对绿薄荷茎和叶进行索式抽提,并测定了茎和叶提取物12.5、25.0和50.0 mg/mL浓度下小菜蛾幼虫的拒食率和成虫产卵忌避活性。结果显示,绿薄荷茎和叶的乙醇提取物对小菜蛾幼虫的拒食和成虫的产卵忌避均有显著作用,提取物浓度越高,拒食率和产卵忌避率越大。当茎和叶提取物浓度为12.5 mg/mL时,小菜蛾的拒食率最低,分别为36.16%和59.81%,产卵忌避率最低,分别为46.18%和57.78%;茎和叶提取物浓度为50.0 mg/mL时,拒食率最高,分别为82.67%和87.15%,产卵忌避率最高,分别为88.29%和98.27%。茎和叶对应的拒食中浓度(AFC_(50))最高分别为18.93 mg/mL和15.97 mg/mL,产卵忌避中浓度(AOC_(50))最高分别为16.38 mg/mL和15.03 mg/mL。     

虱螨脲亚致死浓度对小菜蛾保护酶系和解毒酶系活力的影响

为阐明虱螨脲对小菜蛾亚致死效应的生化机制,采用室内生物测定法测定了LC_(10)和LC_(25)亚致死浓度处理小菜蛾3龄幼虫1、6、12、24、48和72 h后其体内保护酶系和解毒酶系的活力变化。结果表明:虱螨脲LC_(10)处理对小菜蛾幼虫体内超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活力表现为早期诱导、后期抑制的作用,而对过氧化物酶(POD)则表现为先抑制后诱导的作用,对过氧化氢酶(CAT)仅在72h时具有诱导作用;LC_(25)处理对SOD表现为诱导-抑制-诱导-抑制的作用,对POD具有抑制作用,而对CAT具有诱导作用。经虱螨脲亚致死浓度处理后,小菜蛾幼虫体内酯酶和多功能氧化酶活力被明显抑制,且基本表现为浓度越高抑制作用越强;而谷胱甘肽S-转移酶(GST)活力仅在处理后1 h被诱导,之后被显著抑制。表明虱螨脲进入小菜蛾幼虫体内后,初期可诱导SOD、CAT和GST活力升高,以适应外界毒害的影响;但随着时间的延长,3种解毒酶活力被抑制,使其难以代谢,从而增强了对小菜蛾的毒性。     

Inhibitory effects of 4-dodecylresorcinol on the phenoloxidase of the diamondback moth Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera Plutellidae)

Phenoloxidase (PO) is a key enzyme in the developmental process of insects that is responsible for catalyzing the hydroxylation of monophenols and the oxidation of o-diphenols. In the present investigation, the PO of Plutella Xylostella (L.)(Lepidoptera Plutellidae) was partially purified with 40% saturated (NH₄)₂SO₄ and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration, and the effects of 4-dodecylresorcinol on the monophenolase and o-diphenolase activity of PO were studied. The results showed that 4-dodecylresorcinol could inhibit monophenolase and o-diphenolase activity. In addition, following 4-dodecylresorcinol treatments, the lag time of PO for oxidation of l-tyrosine was obviously lengthened and the steady-state activity was decreased. The inhibitor was found to be competitively reversible with a K_i of 0.201 mM and an estimated IC₅₀ (inhibition concentration showing 50% of the maximum inhibition) of 0.160 mM for monophenolase and 0.369 mM for diphenolase. The ability of 4-dodecylresorcinol to inhibit PO activity may be associated with its ability to directly affect copper at the active site     

坡柳种子中坡柳皂苷A的分离鉴定及其对小菜蛾的拒食活性

采用小孔树脂、凝胶SephadexLH-20、反相色谱ODS及制备型高效液相色谱 (Pre-HPLC) 等分离技术,从坡柳Dodonaea viscosa (Linn.) Jacq. Enum. 种子乙醇提取物中分离获得1个活性化合物。通过质谱及核磁共振等波谱技术,鉴定其为新的齐墩果烷型三萜皂苷类化合物21-epoxyangeloyl-15,16,28-tirhydroxy-22-(2-methylbutanoyl)-Olean-12-en-3-(O-α-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1→3)-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)]-β-D-glucuronide,命名为坡柳皂苷A,英文名dodoneaviscoside A。生物活性测定结果表明,其对小菜蛾Plutella xylostella (L.) 3龄幼虫具有较好的非选择性拒食活性,24 h拒食中浓度 (AFC₅₀) 为207.4 μg/mL。值得进一步研究。     

低剂量乙基多杀菌素对小菜蛾解毒酶的影响

为探讨低剂量乙基多杀菌素对小菜蛾Plutella xylostella（L.）解毒酶的影响,采用叶片浸渍法,测定了乙基多杀菌素和多杀菌素对小菜蛾敏感种群的毒力,并比较了低剂量（LC25和LC50）处理6、12、24、48和72 h时小菜蛾体内羧酸酯酶（CarE）、谷胱甘肽S-转移酶（GST）和多功能氧化酶系（MFOs）活性的变化动态。结果表明:乙基多杀菌素对小菜蛾的杀虫活性优于多杀菌素,处理48 h后其LC25和LC50浓度分别为0.018和0.048 mg/L,经此低剂量浓度处理后,小菜蛾CarE活性波动较大,6~24 h,处理组CarE活性高于对照组,且均呈先升后降趋势,24~72 h,处理组CarE活性均低于对照组,并且具有一定的时间效应;对GST具有明显的诱导作用,GST活性均高于对照组;对MFOs具有明显的抑制作用,除在48 h时相差不大外,其他时间MFOs活性均显著低于对照组。结果表明,GST可能参与了乙基多杀菌素在小菜蛾体内的代谢。     

植物保护剂保卫德对小菜蛾种群控制作用

植物保护剂保卫德(BIOACT—D35)对小菜蛾Plutella xylostella L.种群的控制作用主要表现在对成虫产卵的忌避作用、对幼虫的拒食作用以及对生长发育的影响和减少幼虫危害力等方面。10ml/L处理对成虫产卵忌避率为81．43％，对幼虫的选择性和非选择性拒食率分别为96．32％和93．17％，幼虫总取食量是对照的67．4％，使种群趋势指数(I值)由对照的18．2840降为1．94贝，干扰作用控制指数(IIPC)为0．1066。状态空间分析法的模拟结果亦表明，主要控制作用表现在种群发展初期对成虫产卵的忌避作用。

Effect of GCSC-BtA biocide on population dynamics of cabbage pests and their natural enemies from fields in southeastern China

The present paper deals with the effect of the biocide GCSC-BtA on population dynamics of cabbage pests, i.e., Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lep., Plutellidae), Brevicoryne brassicae (L.) (Hom., Aphididae), Liriomyza sativae Blanch. (Dip., Agromyzidae), Phyllotreta vittata Fabric. (Col., Chrysomelidae) and their natural enemies, i.e., Apanteles plutellae Kurdj. (Hym., Braconidae), Erigonidium graminicola (Sundv.) (Araneida, Linyphiidae), Coccinella septempunctata L. (Col., Coccinellidae), in common head cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) fields in the southeastern China. The experiments were conducted at the experimental farm of Fujian Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Fuzhou, PR China in April–June, 2001.The results showed that, at the end of sampling, the pest populations of P. xylostella, B. brassicae and P. vittata reached averages of 39.7, 68.3 and 6.2 ind. / 30 plants in the plot treated with GCSC-BtA, which were about 1.5, 11 and 0.7 times lower than those treated with methomyl, respectively. In contrast, the natural enemy populations were, on average, 23.5 ind./30 plants for A. plutellae, 24.6 ind./30 plants for E. graminicol and 12.2 ind./30 plants for C. septempunctata in the plot treated with GCSC-BtA, about 6, 5 and 3 times higher than for those treated with methomyl, respectively. The GCSC-BtA biocide demonstrated greater effectiveness in controlling the cabbage pests, e.g., P. xylostella, B. brassicae and P. vittata, having final decreasing ratios of 83.60, 97.05 and 53.67% compared to 57.63, 64.89 and 30.88% with the methomyl insecticide. However, it was less toxic to natural enemies, e.g., A. plutellae, E. graminicola and C. septempunctata, final decreasing ratios being 47.68, 17.84, 27.81%, than methomyl, with 90.94, 80.80, 74.55%, in comparison to the populations in the control plots, respectively. So, because of the low toxicity of GCSC-BtA to the natural enemies, it is recommended that, on one hand, its application should be carried out after mass migration of the pests to the fields, on the other hand, the alternative agent GCSC-BtA should be used with the aim of minimizing the harmfulness to the natural enemies in the whole program of integrated pest management in cabbage fields.
