Diprionidae) afectan las coníferas y otras especies forestales en el hemisferio norte, reduciendo la productividad del bosque y causando la muerte de los rodales, lo que justifica acciones de control.Objetivo: Obtener cepas baculovíricas de poblaciones de moscas sierra mexicanas y explorar su potencial para elaborar bioplaguicidas.Materiales y métodos: Se hizo una búsqueda de poblaciones de campo infectadas con baculovirus. De 12 localidades se recolectaron 23 muestras de larvas vivas o muertas. Se realizó un diagnóstico microscópico a 400X o 1000X bajo contraste de fases, una prueba de hibridación de ADN y otra de patogenicidad. Resultados y discusión: Las muestras procedentes de once localidades mostraron poliedros baculovíricos. Tres submuestras de ADN de Zadiprion ojedae de Guachochi, Chihuahua, hibridaron con una sonda sintética de la secuencia del gen Polh de Neodiprion sertifer, confirmando que albergaban la infección baculovírica. Cinco inóculos probados produjeron enfermedad y mortalidad en todas las larvas tratadas; dos de ellos indujeron proliferación de poliedros baculovíricos en ≥89 % de los cadáveres resultantes. El rictus mortem de las larvas de moscas sierra muertas por baculovirus difiere del observado en los lepidópteros: la mayoría de los cadáveres portadores de baculovirus permanecen firmes o duros, aplanados o no, obscurecidos o no y no cuelgan de las patas traseras. La licuefacción de sus tejidos internos, su aplanamiento y obscurecimiento dependen de la abundancia relativa y tipo de microbiota acompañante. En la mayoría de los cadáveres encontrados con tejidos licuados, el agente que más probablemente causó la muerte no fue el baculovirus, sino la microbiota acompañante (bacilos, cocos y hongos).Conclusiones: Las cepas baculovíricas están ampliamente presentes en las poblaciones mexicanas de moscas sierra y varias de ellas fueron patogénicas y prometedoras para el desarrollo de bioinsecticidas.","PeriodicalId":54479,"journal":{"name":"Revista Chapingo Serie Ciencias Forestales Y Del Ambiente","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45099026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objective: To reconstruct the variability of precipitation for the western part of the state of Chihuahua, based on tree rings of Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.)

Materials and methods: Samples were extracted with a Pressler drill, dated and growth indexes were generated based on dendrochronological techniques. A correlation analysis was run between regional chronology and observed precipitation data. A regression model was used to reconstruct precipitation. A spectral analysis determined the recurrence of droughts and the influence of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on precipitation variability. Results and discussion: The relationship between the chronologies was statistically significant and a regional series of 359 years was developed. October-June precipitation had the highest impact on growth (r = 0.73, P < 0.01), so the variability of precipitation for that period was reconstructed for the last 359 years. Severe droughts were detected in the periods 1751-1768, 1807-1810 and 1945-1956 and a recurrence of droughts every 50 years was identified. The reconstructed precipitation variability is significantly modulated by ENSO at different time scales and frequencies.

Objective: To develop a dynamic SI equation, using the generalized algebraic difference approach (GADA) to describe the dominant height growth pattern and classify the productivity of natural stands of P. chiapensis in Puebla and Veracruz, Mexico. Materials and methods: Four theoretical growth models were used to derive six equations in GADA, fitted to dominant height-age observations from stem analyses of 31 trees. Fitting was performed using the Dummy variable method, which is invariant to the base age; autocorrelation and heteroscedasticity were corrected. Results and discussion: Quantitative evaluation, graphical analysis of residuals and growth trends of equations allowed the selection of an equation derived from the Levakovic II model with higher predictive capacity. With this equation and a base age of 50 years, polymorphic SI curves with variable asymptotes were constructed to classify productivity into low, medium and high, corresponding to SI of 25, 32 and 39 m, respectively. The maximum mean annual increase for the SI of 32 m was 1.07 m∙yr-1 and occurred at 11.08 years. The equation exhibited better performance relative to a previously reported polymorphic equation.

Objective: To analyze land use change and its effect on natural vegetation in the region of Los Ríos, Tabasco, Mexico, during the period 1947-2019. Materials and methods: A total of 14 land use and vegetation classes were identified using aerial photographs from 1947 and supervised classification of satellite images, verifying those from 1947 to 2000 with published cartography and those from 2019 (Landsat 8) in the field. Land use and vegetation cover change was analyzed by overlaying and comparing the maps with the Land Change Modeler module integrated in the TerrSet program. Results and discussion: In 72 years, natural vegetation was mostly replaced by crops, grassland and forest plantations, followed by human settlements. These uses, together, represented 14.2 % of the region’s surface and increased to 61.8 %; that is, an increase of 435 %. These uses replaced areas of rainforest, secondary vegetation and hydrophytes, which went from 82.3 % to 29.7 %, representing a loss of 64 % of these coverages. Between 1947 and 1984, natural vegetation suffered the greatest loss of area (53.7 %).

Materials and methods: Wild pumpkins (Cucurbita foetidissima Kunth and C. radicans Naudin) seeds were collected at mature stage at three sites of the Mexican Plateau and seeds of domesticated pumpkins (C. pepo L., C. moschata Duchesne, C. argyrosperma K.

Five types of traps were used (BT = bucket type, TCT = trash can type, GT = gallon type, CSAT = Colegio Superior de Agricultura Tropical, BT = bottle type). Trapping was counted weekly, and the cost-benefit of trapping was determined. Trapping was analyzed with quasi-Poisson distribution, deviancy analysis and least significant difference.
