Currently, the application of chemical insecticides is still the primary measure to prevent and control B. dorsalis. However, the frequent and extensive use of insecticides contributes to the evolution of insecticide resistance. To investigate the mechanism of insecticide resistance of B. dorsalis, we initially detected the susceptibility of 19 typical insecticides using the residue film bioassay. The results indicated that spinosad and lambda-cyhalothrin (λ-cyhalothrin) exhibited high toxicity. Transcriptome analysis showed that 6 genes related to detoxification metabolism were differentially expressed between laboratory and λ-cyhalothrin resistant population. RNA interference (RNAi) was performed to verify the function of one differentially expressed gene, CYP304A1, and its association with metabolic resistance of B. dorsalis to spinosad and λ-cyhalothrin was confirmed. Moreover, we discovered a novel nonsynonymous mutation, I345V, in the exon of the nicotine acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunit alpha 9 gene, which might be the potential target of spinosad and λ-cyhalothrin. There was a strong correlation between the allele frequency of the I345V mutation and the resistance level of spinosad (r2 = 0.912) or λ-cyhalothrin (r2 = 0.889). These findings indicated that up-regulated CYP304A1 and I345V mutation of nAChR were associated with spinosad and λ-cyhalothrin resistance of B. dorsalis. The results provide a new perspective for in-depth research on the resistance mechanism of B. dorsalis to spinosad and λ-cyhalothrin. This study also provides insights for developing a new molecular detection method for monitoring resistance to these two insecticides.","PeriodicalId":11728,"journal":{"name":"Entomologia Generalis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142248340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated the sublethal and transgenerational effects of chlorfenapyr on FAW to enhance its appropriate utilization. LC10 and LC20 values of chlorfenapyr were estimated to 7.47 and 12.08 μg/g after a 72-hour exposure, respectively. Low chlorfenapyr concentrations extended the duration of larval stage and pre-oviposition period, reducing larvae body weight, pupation rate and eclosion rate in both the F0 and F1 generations. Additionally, such exposure decreased the F0 generation’s mating rate, fecundity, and egg hatching rate. The feeding indicators in third instar larvae from the F0 generation, including relative growth rate (RGR), efficiency of conversion of ingested food (ECI), efficiency of conversion of digested food (ECD), and relative consumption rate (RCR), exhibited significant decrease compared to the control group, while approximate digestibility (AD) was higher. Larvae exposed to LC10 or LC20 exhibited elevated carboxylesterases (CarEs), cytochrome P-450s (P450s), and glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) activities from 12 to 24 hours’ exposure, Notably, GSTs activity was higher at 6-hours compared to the control group, while CarEs and P450s activities significantly decreased. LC20 adversely affected long-term life table parameters of the F1 generation, including intrinsic rate of increase (r), the finite rate of increase (λ), and the net reproductive rate (R0 ).

In this study, we examined the sublethal effects of flonicamid on the biological characteristics along with the feeding behavior of R. padi using age-stage, two-sex life table approach, and electrical penetration graphs (EPGs). The toxicity bioassays showed that flonicamid exhibited high toxicity against R. padi adults after 48 h treatment. The adult longevity, fecundity, and reproductive days of the F0 generation were significantly reduced following R. padi exposure to the LC5 and LC10 of flonicamid. Intergenerational sublethal effects of flonicamid were observed on the developmental stages of the progeny generation (F1) such as increased pre-adult stages and decreased longevities. The reproduction and life table parameters, including fecundity, R 0, r, λ, and reproductive days (RP d ) were significantly decreased in F1 generation at both sublethal concentrations of flonicamid as compared to control. Moreover, the EPG data showed that the total duration of phloem sap ingestion and concurrent salivation (E2) were significantly decreased in F0 at both LC5 and LC10, while in F1 generation, the E2 was substantially reduced only at LC10 of flonicamid compared to control. Together, our findings demonstrated that sublethal concentrations of flonicamid negatively affect the demographic parameters and feeding behavior, which consequently inhibit the population growth of R. padi.

Consequently, individuals in good condition are assumed to invest substantial resources in reproduction, while those in poor condition are unable to do so. This is particularly relevant in insects, where reproduction is a nutrient-limited process for males and females and is largely related to their energy reserves. Lepidopteran phytophagous insects are an ideal model to evaluate how larval nutrition affects adult reproductive strategies, because larval host plant is considered a key determinant of the adult phenotype and the performance of both males and females. We studied a capital breeder moth species, the European grapevine moth (Lobesia botrana), to investigate how male energy reserves, body condition and reproductive traits might influence female reproductive output, using different host plants as a means of obtaining different male quality. We found that the host cultivar for the larvae strongly influenced the energy reserves of male adult moths, affecting their body condition and ultimately their reproductive potential through the content of spermatophores they transfer to females at mating. Moreover, males having different levels of energy reserves may alter the allocation of energy between their body condition and spermatophore size and composition, supporting the idea that organisms can buffer the effect of nutritional constraints by changing allocation to different fitness-related traits. Females also seem to be able to adjust latency to oviposition accordingly. These results have important implications for understanding the population dynamics of this moth species.","PeriodicalId":11728,"journal":{"name":"Entomologia Generalis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142186673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluated the efficacy of this event against fall armyworm and glyphosate’s weed control capability through laboratory and field trials in China’s tropical area, aiming to improve integrated pest management (IPM) strategies in Asia. Laboratory assays showed high effectiveness against fall armyworm neonates (> 95%) and against 3rd instars (> 90%) using Bt maize tissues. Field trials validated Bt maize protection during the vegetative and reproductive phases, markedly diminishing fall armyworm larval prevalence; efficacy ranged from 99.6% in 2021, 97.1% in 2022, and 96.2% in 2023. In addition, Bt maize prevented yield losses of 9.2% to 20.9%. The results also indicated that glyphosate and a local herbicide mix (active ingredient nicosulfuron, atrazine, and mesotrione) exhibited comparable weed control efficacy under field conditions. Thus, Bt11 × MIR162 × GA21, following 3 years of research, was found to a potent IPM tool for tropical Asia, offering substantial protection against fall armyworm, weed control and aiding in trait resistance management.","PeriodicalId":11728,"journal":{"name":"Entomologia Generalis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142224606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the Aphelinidae family, heteronomous hyperparasitoids like Encarsia sophia show distinct behaviors where females (from fertilized eggs) target primary hosts, and males (from unfertilized eggs) parasitize secondary hosts. This sex determination pattern means that host resource abundance significantly impacts sex ratio, affecting population dynamics. However, the sex distribution of these parasitoids remains a topic of debate. This study examined E. sophia targeting Bemisia tabaci, adjusting host densities (30, 50, 70 hosts/9.6 cm²) and secondary host ratios (0.2, 0.5, 0.8). Females were observed for recognition of varying host conditions and adjustments in offspring sex ratio and behavior. When ratio of secondary hosts surpassed that of primary hosts or in cases of low host density (host limitation), E. sophia’s offspring sex ratio adapted according to the relative abundance of primary and secondary hosts. Conversely, with low secondary host ratios (< 0.5) and higher host density, the sex ratio approached 1:1. Observations showed that females quickly perceived host density, increasing oviposition on secondary hosts with higher density, resulting in more males, and increasing feeding on primary hosts, reducing female offspring. Importantly, by examining oviposition and feeding under different host resource conditions, we identified the optimal rearing strategy: a secondary host ratio of 0.2 and a host density of 30 hosts/9.6 cm². This study not only introduces the sex ratio theory for heteronomous hyperparasitoids but also provides a framework for more accurately assessing their environmental adaptability and for large-scale production.","PeriodicalId":11728,"journal":{"name":"Entomologia Generalis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142186709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Animal personalities are characterized by within-individual consistency linked to consistent among-individual variation in behavior across time and contexts. Individual niche specialization posits that members of local groups should diversify in their foraging phenotypes to alleviate inter-individual competition and ensuing conflicts. Here, we tested the hypothesis that early life experiences shape individual foraging niches and personality expression in the omnivorous plant-inhabiting predatory mite Amblyseius swirskii. To this end, we exposed predatory mite females in their early life phase to one of three diets (pollen, spider mites or thrips) or no food (control) and later evaluated the adult females’ mean trait expressions and personalities in exploration, activity and aggressiveness. Personality formation was analyzed by intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC). The predators showed personalities in all three behavioral dimensions but personality formation and diet preference were strongly influenced by early-life diet experiences. Personality types in exploration were predictive of fitness, with more exploratory personalities producing more eggs. Thrips experience had the strongest impact across measured traits and thrips-experienced personality types were linked to individual foraging niches. Overall, early-life diet experiences induced greater changes in trait expressions at the individual than population level. Our findings highlight that ephemeral personal experiences early in life are important determinants of fine-scale phenotypic structure and diversity within groups, and demonstrate environmental induction of the link between individualized niche use and personality formation.","PeriodicalId":11728,"journal":{"name":"Entomologia Generalis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142186674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The way bottom-up forces affect the second trophic level is well documented, but how these effects cascade to the third trophic level is less understood. We aimed to understand: 1) how bottom-up effects vary between natural enemies with contrasted ecology, i.e., parasitoids and predators; and 2) how the diet regime of the predators affected the intensity of bottom-up effects. We set-up a lab experiment measuring the effects of reduced fertilization (from standard rates to no fertilization) on tri-trophic systems in tomato. The selected herbivores are frequent pests on tomato systems (Macrosiphum euphorbiae, Bemisia tabaci and Tuta absoluta). The respective parasitoids were Aphidius ervi and Encarsia formosa, and the respective predators Adalia bipunctata (carnivorous), Macrolophus pygmaeus (omnivorous), Dicyphus errans (omnivorous) and Chrysoperla carnea (carnivorous). We recorded plant growth and leaf carbon and nitrogen content, herbivore fecundity as well as various parasitoid/predator traits including development, longevity, reproduction and biocontrol efficacy. We found evidence of diluted bottom-up forces through trophic levels depending on the herbivore types, with variable but overall marginally positive effects of reducing fertilization from high to intermediate levels on host quality and biocontrol efficacy. Parasitoids were overall less affected than predators.

In the search for alternative protective methods, the effectiveness of Metarhizium robertsii in protecting non-grafted Vitis vinifera grapevines against radicicole GP was assessed in vitro. In the first approach, GP eggs from a single clonal lineage were infected with M. robertsii strain EF3.5(2) obtained from a French vineyard. In bioassays, three application methods (egg spraying, root spraying, and both) were assessed using fresh woody root sections of V. vinifera cv. Cabernet Sauvignon. M. robertsii pathogenic effect translated to a significant reduction of 90.0 % by the egg spraying, 70.0 % by the root spraying, and 86.1 % by spraying both in the survival probability of GP larvae and adults compared to controls, and 92.0 %, 89.0 % and 93.0 % in the reduction of successful development to the adult stage after 28 days post-treatment, respectively. In the second approach, the impact of M. robertsii’s association with non-grafted V. vinifera roots on radicicole GP establishment and symptom induction was assessed in a pot experiment. After 76 days post-GP inoculation, a remarkable 91 % reduction in damage was observed in plants co-inoculated with M. robertsii and GP, compared to those infected solely with GP. Furthermore, 100 % of M. robertsii-inoculated plants and 92.0 % of GP-M. robertsii co-inoculated plants were colonized by the fungus at the rhizosphere level.
