Pollination is a multi-million-year-old co-evolutionary process involving flowering plants and pollinators. It is one of the most important mechanisms in preservation and promotion of biodiversity as well as life on Earth. Pollinator diversity is essential for maintaining overall biological diversity in many habitats including agro-ecosystems. Pollinators are responsible for assisting reproduction in over 80% of the world’s flowering plants. In their absence, humans and wildlife would go hungry. Insects are the most efficient pollinators as they play a crucial part in pollination ecology. Pollinators and their habitats have ecological, economic, cultural and social benefits. Pollination efficiency is highly dependent on certain attributes and characteristics of pollinators such as vision, anatomy, food preferences, olfaction, behaviour and learning ability. With the rapid growth of human population, our demand for food has also risen. Our agricultural systems will need to produce more food in a sustainable manner in the future to cope with this. Pollinators play an important role in these ecosystems and will continue to do so in the future. Because pollinators are so important to agriculture, we need to learn more about which crops require specific pollinators and how to best maintain and promote both wild and controlled species. Their diversity needs protection because there are specific relationships between certain crops and pollinators. Pollinator communities are suffering as a result of man-made habitat disruptions, including severe biodiversity loss. This diversity must be protected by combining conservation measures with sustainable farming practices which could increase crop yields while protecting insect pollinator species.
授粉是一个涉及开花植物和传粉者的数百万年的共同进化过程。它是保护和促进生物多样性以及地球上生命的最重要机制之一。传粉媒介多样性对于维持包括农业生态系统在内的许多生境的整体生物多样性至关重要。传粉者对世界上80%以上的开花植物的繁殖起着辅助作用。没有它们,人类和野生动物就会挨饿。昆虫是最有效的传粉者,因为它们在传粉生态学中起着至关重要的作用。传粉媒介及其栖息地具有生态、经济、文化和社会效益。传粉效率高度依赖于传粉者的某些属性和特征,如视觉、解剖、食物偏好、嗅觉、行为和学习能力。随着人口的快速增长,我们对食物的需求也在增加。未来,我们的农业系统需要以可持续的方式生产更多的粮食来应对这一问题。传粉者在这些生态系统中发挥着重要作用,并将在未来继续发挥作用。由于传粉媒介对农业非常重要,我们需要更多地了解哪些作物需要特定的传粉媒介,以及如何最好地维护和促进野生和受控物种。它们的多样性需要保护,因为某些作物和传粉媒介之间存在特定的关系。由于人为破坏栖息地,包括严重的生物多样性丧失,传粉者群落正在遭受痛苦。这种多样性必须通过保护措施与可持续耕作方法相结合加以保护,这样既能提高作物产量,又能保护昆虫传粉媒介物种。

Organic farming encourages maximum utilization of the natural biological processes to manage the farm in terms of soil fertilization and pest control, which implies using none or less synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and plant and animal growth-promoting substances. All these practices increase arthropod diversity, particularly soil-dwelling insects. Intercropping, cover crops, and hedges, which are common practices in organic fields, provide alternative habitats for arthropod communities. The refugia also provide a good source of food for pollinators in terms of pollen grains and nectar. The interactions among the different plant and animal taxa (weeds, birds, mammals) that are found in the organic farming ecosystem have a great impact on insects’ abundance and diversity. This chapter summarizes the impacts of the organic farming system on the abundance and diversity of insects. The role of organic farming in mitigating the impact of agriculture intensification, urbanization, deforestation, and climate change on global insects’ decline and diversity loss is discussed.
有机农业鼓励最大限度地利用自然生物过程来管理农场的土壤施肥和病虫害防治,这意味着不使用或少使用合成肥料、农药和促进动植物生长的物质。所有这些做法都增加了节肢动物的多样性,特别是土栖昆虫。间作、覆盖作物和树篱是有机农田中常见的做法,为节肢动物群落提供了替代栖息地。在花粉粒和花蜜方面,避难所也为传粉者提供了良好的食物来源。有机农业生态系统中不同动植物类群(杂草、鸟类、哺乳动物)之间的相互作用对昆虫的丰度和多样性有很大的影响。本章概述了有机耕作制度对昆虫丰度和多样性的影响。讨论了有机农业在缓解农业集约化、城市化、森林砍伐和气候变化对全球昆虫数量减少和多样性丧失的影响方面的作用。

In low-income countries, subsistence and transitional farms frequently use botanical insecticides. The shortage or high cost of industrial pesticides also prompts their use. Botanical insecticides are also prescribed by agricultural and development programs and certain development organizations. However, since insecticidal proof of their effectiveness and protection might not be sufficient or usable, this may be called into question. While insecticidal botanicals have been extensively studied, there has yet to be a fusion that focuses especially on the domestic synthesis of biopesticides that work infield and storage effectively. In this chapter, we look at the effectiveness of botanicals (neem, garlic, and essential oil) that are used as insecticides. In addition, this chapter also focuses on research carried out on the use of these essential oils as insecticides. Processes that use variable amounts of ingredients and concentrations and ratios of active ingredients can have varying impacts on the efficacy of plant-based biological insecticides. Finally, using home-made insecticides would reduce the losses that occur during food production and enable us to use environment-friendly pest management methods.
在低收入国家,自给和过渡农场经常使用植物性杀虫剂。工业农药的短缺或高成本也促使了它们的使用。植物性杀虫剂也由农业和发展计划以及某些发展组织规定。但是,由于对其有效性和保护作用的杀虫证据可能不充分或可用,这可能会受到质疑。虽然杀虫植物药已被广泛研究,但尚未有一个融合,特别是集中在国内合成的生物农药,有效地在田间和储存。在本章中,我们将研究用作杀虫剂的植物药(楝树、大蒜和精油)的有效性。此外,本章还重点介绍了将这些精油用作杀虫剂的研究。使用不同数量的成分以及活性成分的浓度和比例的过程可能对植物性生物杀虫剂的功效产生不同的影响。最后,使用自制杀虫剂可以减少粮食生产过程中的损失,并使我们能够采用环保的虫害管理方法。

Insect control for crops is one of the most critical global concerns. Pest management is an economic and ecological problem worldwide due to the human and environmental risks raised by most synthetic pesticide products. Botanical insecticides have resurfaced in popularity due to their low cost and low environmental impact, rather than their negative effects on human health. Botanical insecticides destroy only the insects they are meant to kill, leaving no residue on food or in the environment. Botanicals have long been used to combat pests. The compounds have many environmental advantages. However, as opposed to other bio-control pests and pathogens, their use was minimal during the twentieth century. In developing countries, botanical insecticides are well adapted for use in organic food production. Nonetheless, they may play a far bigger role in developed countries’ food production and post-harvest food protection. Consequently, the current chapter briefly addresses botanicals with active ingredients with insecticidal, antifeedant, or repellent properties.
农作物虫害防治是全球最关注的问题之一。由于大多数合成农药产品带来的人类和环境风险,有害生物治理是一个全球性的经济和生态问题。植物性杀虫剂之所以重新流行起来,是因为它们成本低、对环境影响小,而不是因为它们对人类健康有负面影响。植物杀虫剂只杀死它们要杀死的昆虫,不会在食物或环境中留下任何残留物。植物药长期以来一直被用来对抗害虫。这些化合物具有许多环境优势。然而,与其他生物防治害虫和病原体相反,它们的使用在20世纪很少。在发展中国家,植物性杀虫剂非常适合用于有机食品生产。尽管如此,它们在发达国家的粮食生产和收获后的食品保护中可能发挥更大的作用。因此,本章简要介绍具有杀虫、拒食或驱避特性的活性成分的植物药。

Although insects are economically important as they produce honey, silk, act as pollinators and also play an important role in functioning of an ecosystem, yet insect population is declining very fast. One of the possible causes of insects decline is excessive use of pesticides. Control of pest with synthetic chemicals or pesticides result in several issues and complications. These chemical pesticides or insecticides can also cause toxic effects on beneficial organisms like honeybees and butterflies which are important pollinators. So, biocontrol agents can be used as best alternative to control pest without harming beneficial organism and non-target insects or other organism as majority of biocontrol agents are host specific. Biological control agents including predators and parasotoids are natural enemies of insect pests. Present chapter deals with the description and illustration of one new species Anagrus (Anagrus) sololinearis sp.nov from India. This new species belongs to genus Anagrus (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea: Mymaridae). Genus Anagrus is considered as one of the important and most promising biocontrol agents in insects as it is an egg parasitoid.
虽然昆虫在经济上很重要,因为它们产蜜、产丝、作为传粉者,在生态系统的功能中也发挥着重要作用,但昆虫的数量正在迅速减少。昆虫数量减少的可能原因之一是过度使用杀虫剂。用合成化学品或杀虫剂控制害虫会导致几个问题和并发症。这些化学农药或杀虫剂也会对蜜蜂和蝴蝶等有益生物造成毒性作用,而蜜蜂和蝴蝶是重要的授粉者。因此,由于大多数生物防治剂具有寄主特异性,在不伤害有益生物和非目标昆虫或其他生物的情况下,生物防治剂是防治害虫的最佳选择。包括捕食者和拟寄生虫在内的生物防治剂是害虫的天敌。本章讨论了一种来自印度的新种属Anagrus (Anagrus) sololineearis sp.nov的描述和图解。本新种属蜜蜂属(膜翅目:蜂总科:蜜蜂科)。因其是一种卵寄生物,被认为是一种重要的和最有前途的生物防治剂。

Insects are the key component of world’s ecosystem and act as vital force to maintain life’s framework. But in present scenario, Insects are under multi-continental crisis apparent as reduction in abundance, diversity and biomass. The impact of decline is severe in areas which are highly impacted by human activities such as industrialized and agricultural landscapes. Habitat loss and degradation; intensive use of pesticides; pollution; introduction of invasive species and climate change are the most influential factors for their alarming decline and each factor is multifaceted. The accelerated decline in insect population can cause unpredictable negative consequences for the biosphere and is a matter of global concern that requires immediate and effective international collaborations. An urgent need is to identify the species at greatest threat; factors threatening their survival and finally the consequences of their loss. In order to maintain the integrity of managed and natural ecosystems, the protection of Insect diversity is critically important.
昆虫是世界生态系统的重要组成部分,是维持生命框架的重要力量。但在目前的情况下,昆虫正处于多大陆危机之中,表现为丰度、多样性和生物量的减少。在工业化和农业景观等受人类活动高度影响的地区,这种下降的影响是严重的。生境丧失和退化;大量使用农药;污染;入侵物种的引入和气候变化是影响其急剧下降的最主要因素,每个因素都是多方面的。昆虫数量的加速下降可能对生物圈造成不可预测的负面影响,是一个全球关注的问题,需要立即进行有效的国际合作。迫切需要确定受威胁最大的物种;威胁他们生存的因素,最后是失去他们的后果。为了维持管理和自然生态系统的完整性,保护昆虫多样性至关重要。

Bee crisis is threatening worldwide food security. Pesticides are extensively used in the agricultural zone. Unfortunately, these pesticides cause severe toxicity toward pollinators than the target pests such as honeybees. This review summarizes the different studies related to pesticide hazards of bees. This paper reported risks of pesticides neurological and physiological poisoning toward honeybees. Pesticides act as poison and ruin vital functions involved in leaning and cognition, behavior and, the body physiological mechanisms. Many laboratory and field research data evaluated the lethal and sub-lethal poisoning on bee foraging dance, learning, and memory abilities of honeybees. Insecticide residues are detected in bee bodies and LD50 and LC50 values evaluated. It is also studied that in honeybees systemic insecticide residues and, its metabolite adulterated in their body during foraging activities. Similarly, pesticide-contaminated food stored in a hive consumed continuously by honeybees may cause sub-lethal toxicity effects. Which causes anomalous bee social behavior and ultimately leads to colony collapse disorder. If population of pollinator decline it will disturb the food chain and leads to food crisis. This review emphasized causes of bee decline with the emergence of pesticides in agricultural domains.
蜜蜂危机正威胁着全球粮食安全。农药在农业区被广泛使用。不幸的是,这些农药对传粉昆虫的毒性比蜜蜂等目标害虫严重。本文综述了农药对蜜蜂危害的不同研究。本文报道了农药对蜜蜂的神经中毒和生理中毒风险。农药具有毒害作用,破坏人体学习、认知、行为和生理机制的重要功能。许多实验室和实地研究数据评估了致死和亚致死中毒对蜜蜂觅食舞蹈、学习和记忆能力的影响。检测了蜜蜂体内的杀虫剂残留,并评估了LD50和LC50值。也有研究表明,在蜜蜂的觅食活动中,它们体内的杀虫剂残留及其代谢物存在掺假现象。同样,储存在蜂箱中被杀虫剂污染的食物被蜜蜂持续食用可能会造成亚致死的毒性作用。这会导致反常的蜜蜂社会行为,最终导致蜂群崩溃失调。如果传粉昆虫数量减少,将会扰乱食物链,导致粮食危机。本文综述了农药在农业领域出现导致蜜蜂数量下降的原因。

Causes and Reasons of Insect Decline and the Way Forward 昆虫减少的原因和原因及未来的发展方向
Pub Date : 2021-07-23 DOI: 10.5772/INTECHOPEN.98786

There are lot of reasons and causes of insect decline. The main causes of insect decline is attributed to habitat destruction, land use changes, deforestation, intensive agriculture, urbanization, pollution, climate change, introduction of invasive insect species, application of pesticides, mass trapping of insects using pheromones and light traps, pathological problems on various insects, and introduction of exotic honey bees in new areas that compete with the native bees for resource portioning and other management techniques for pest management, and even not leaving any pest residue for predators and parasitoids for their survival. The use of chemical insecticides against target or non-target organisms is major cause for insect decline. The diseases and decline of the important pollinators is still a mistry for colony collapse disorder. To overcome the cause of insect decline, various conservation techniques to be adopted and augmentation of artificial nesting and feeding structures, use of green pesticides, maintaining the proper pest defender ratio (P:D), policies and reaching to political audience at global level and other factors already discussed in the chapter may be helpful for mitigating the insect decline and especially for the pollinators, a key insect for life.
昆虫减少的原因和原因有很多。昆虫数量减少的主要原因是生境破坏、土地利用变化、森林砍伐、集约化农业、城市化、污染、气候变化、入侵昆虫物种的引入、杀虫剂的使用、信息素和光诱法的大规模捕虫、各种昆虫的病理性问题、外来蜜蜂在新地区的引入与本地蜜蜂竞争资源分配和其他有害生物管理技术。甚至不给捕食者和拟寄生虫留下任何害虫残留物,以便它们生存。对目标生物或非目标生物使用化学杀虫剂是导致昆虫数量减少的主要原因。重要传粉媒介的疾病和衰退仍然是蜂群崩溃失调的一个原因。为了克服昆虫减少的原因,采取各种保护技术,增加人工筑巢和取食结构,使用绿色农药,保持适当的害虫防御者比例(P:D),政策和在全球范围内接触政治受众以及本章已经讨论的其他因素可能有助于减轻昆虫的减少,特别是对传粉昆虫来说,这是生命的关键昆虫。

The main causes of insect decline is attributed to habitat destruction, land use changes, deforestation, intensive agriculture, urbanization, pollution, climate change, introduction of invasive insect species, application of pesticides, mass trapping of insects using pheromones and light traps, pathological problems on various insects, and introduction of exotic honey bees in new areas that compete with the native bees for resource portioning and other management techniques for pest management, and even not leaving any pest residue for predators and parasitoids for their survival. The use of chemical insecticides against target or non-target organisms is major cause for insect decline.
