Abstract

Mangrove forests worldwide have been subjected to biological invasion. Invasive apple snails ( Pomacea canaliculata ) have established populations in some mangrove forests. The feeding behavior of P. canaliculata in mangroves has been unclear until now. The feeding electivity of P. canaliculata to mangrove leaves, including leaves from Acanthus ilicifolius, Acrostichum aureum, Kandelia candel, Aegiceras corniculatum, and Sonneratia apetala , was studied through a selective test, a non-selective test, and a T-tube test. The growth indicators, the feeding ratio, the feeding rate, the feeding amount, the electivity indicator, and the electivity frequency were determined. The weight increase ratios of P. canaliculata that consumed leaves of A. ilicifolius and A. aureum were higher than those that consumed leaves of K. candel, S. apetala , and A. corniculatum . The electivity indicator showed that P. canaliculata preferred A. ilicifolius leaves and fed little on A. corniculatum leaves. Acrostichum aureum leaves were the second most preferred food for the apple snails. The feeding electivity of P. canaliculata to leaves from five species of mangrove trees was significantly differentiated by cluster analysis, redundancy analysis, and principal component analysis. Eight feeding indicators of the apple snails were positively correlated with the leaf characteristics of nitrogen content, protein content, leaf area, moisture content, and aspect ratio and negatively correlated with the lignin, phenolic, and tannin contents. Pomacea canaliculata could discriminate mangrove leaves through physical and chemical characteristics and shift feeding electivity among mangrove leaves under intraspecific competition. Mangrove forests composed mainly of A. ilicifolius and A. aureum might be at risk of invasion by P. canaliculata . A detailed survey on benthic animals is necessary to monitor and prevent P. canaliculata invasion in mangroves.
红树叶片对入侵苹果螺的适口性:取食选择性与多株特性的关系
全世界的红树林都受到了生物入侵。入侵的苹果螺(Pomacea canaliculata)已经在一些红树林中建立了种群。到目前为止,人们还不清楚红树林中管状假单胞虫的摄食行为。通过选择试验、非选择试验和t管试验,研究了小管线虫对红树叶片的取食选择性,包括刺槐、金顶花、坎德尔、山楂和无瓣海桑叶片。测定了生长指标、投喂比、投喂率、投喂量、选择性指标和选择性频率。以黄花和金花为食的小管柳的增重率高于以金花、无瓣花和金花为食的小管柳。选择性指标表明,小管小叶蝉对青叶偏爱,对青叶采食较少。苹果螺的第二大首选食物是金顶花叶片。通过聚类分析、冗余分析和主成分分析,对5种红树叶片的取食选择性进行了显著差异。苹果螺8项采食指标与叶片氮含量、蛋白质含量、叶面积、水分含量、长径比呈正相关,与木质素、酚类、单宁含量呈负相关。管状Pomacea caniculata可以通过理化特征对红树林叶片进行区分,并在种内竞争下改变红树林叶片间的取食选择性。以黄杨和金杨为主的红树林可能有被小管木入侵的危险。对红树林底栖动物进行详细调查是监测和预防管状假单胞虫入侵的必要条件。

期刊介绍: Aquatic Invasions is an open access, peer-reviewed international journal focusing on academic research of biological invasions in both inland and coastal water ecosystems from around the world. It was established in 2006 as initiative of the International Society of Limnology (SIL) Working Group on Aquatic Invasive Species (WGAIS) with start-up funding from the European Commission Sixth Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development Integrated Project ALARM. Aquatic Invasions is an official journal of International Association for Open Knowledge on Invasive Alien Species (INVASIVESNET). Aquatic Invasions provides a forum for professionals involved in research of aquatic non-native species, including a focus on the following: • Patterns of non-native species dispersal, including range extensions with global change • Trends in new introductions and establishment of non-native species • Population dynamics of non-native species • Ecological and evolutionary impacts of non-native species • Behaviour of invasive and associated native species in invaded areas • Prediction of new invasions • Advances in non-native species identification and taxonomy
