Abstract

Paurocephala sauteri Enderlein is one of the most important pests of mulberry trees in the tropical and subtropical regions of China. This species by penetrating the veins on the back of leaves and buds of mulberry trees, nymphs and female adults can secrete wax, these wax accumulated on the mulberry leaves significantly affects photosynthesis and silkworm cultivation. Therefore, this study aimed to understand the wax-secreting system and characteristics of wax secretion, expecting a potential strategy to control the species population. The main findings were as follows: scanning electron microscopy revealed that the nymphs and female adults secrete wax in long tubes with spherical ends, and male adults secrete honeydew. Additionally, the wax-secreting system of the nymphs and female adults differ, the nymph owned a bending moon-shaped wax-secreting system, the wax-secreting system first instar nymph consisted of one circle of rectangular, depressed cell, whereas the wax-secreting system of second to fifth instar nymph made up of one circle of rectangular, depressed cell and one circle of round, depressed cell. There were a certain number of white pores inside of this depressed cell. Wax filaments produced by these pores are converted into a dense, tight and hollow the wax tube. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometer showed that the main constituents of P. sauteri wax are hydrocarbons. The wax tube as a water conservation pool during the P. sauteri developmental process. This physiological feature may be a key point for a potential strategy to control P. sauteri, even other secreting insects.

桑树害虫parocephala sauteri Enderlein的蜡分泌及分泌系统研究(半翅目:木虱科)
中国热带和亚热带地区桑树的主要害虫之一是Paurocephala sauteri Enderlein。本种通过穿透桑树叶背和芽上的叶脉,若虫和雌成虫能分泌蜡,这些蜡在桑树叶上的积累显著影响桑蚕的光合作用和养蚕。因此,本研究旨在了解蜂蜡分泌系统和蜂蜡分泌特征,以期找到控制种群的潜在策略。主要观察结果如下:扫描电镜显示,若虫和雌成虫分泌蜡质于端部呈球形的长管中,雄成虫分泌蜜露。此外,若虫和雌成虫的分泌蜡系统不同,若虫的分泌蜡系统为弯曲的月形,一龄若虫的分泌蜡系统由一圈长方形的凹陷细胞组成,而二至五龄若虫的分泌蜡系统由一圈长方形的凹陷细胞和一圈圆形的凹陷细胞组成。这个凹陷的细胞内有一定数量的白色毛孔。由这些孔产生的蜡丝被转化成致密、紧致和中空的蜡管。气相色谱/质谱分析表明,石蜡的主要成分为烃类。蜡管在黄鳝发育过程中起着保水作用。这一生理特征可能是控制苏氏假单胞虫,甚至其他分泌昆虫的潜在策略的关键点。
