Several studies have attempted to understand what may influence the bacterial community of a host, but studies examining whether different bacterial species are found in different parts of the body of insects are limited. In the present study, we address the following questions: 1) How are bacterial communities distributed across different parts of the body (head, mesosoma, gaster) of Camponotus and 2) Is the diversity found explained by the environment in which these ants were collected? Our results were able to differentiate the bacterial communities present in the different parts of the body and can be explained in the following way: each part of the body has unique organs with different functions; and the complex proventriculum of Camponotus may be acting as a filter and structuring the bacterial community found in the gaster. In addition, an unexpected finding of the present study was the high diversity found associated with the head and mesosoma, and our findings were able to confirm that this diversity is associated with the environment where the ants were collected. Knowing more about the factors that can influence bacterial communities may reveal more about the importance of these associations in nature.
几项研究试图了解是什么可能影响宿主的细菌群落,但对昆虫身体不同部位是否发现不同细菌种类的研究有限。在本研究中,我们解决了以下问题:1)Camponotus的细菌群落是如何分布在身体的不同部位(头部、中孔体、腹部)的?2)发现的多样性是否由收集这些蚂蚁的环境来解释?我们的研究结果能够区分身体不同部位的细菌群落,可以用以下方式解释:身体的每个部位都有具有不同功能的独特器官;Camponotus复杂的前胃可能起到过滤器的作用,并构建在胃中发现的细菌群落。此外,本研究的一个意外发现是,发现了与头部和中孔瘤相关的高度多样性,我们的发现能够证实这种多样性与采集蚂蚁的环境有关。了解更多可能影响细菌群落的因素,可能会更多地揭示这些关联在自然界中的重要性。

An experiment was conducted at Nagari union in Kaligonj Upazila of Gazipur district to determine the impact of Integrated Pest Management practices on tomato cultivation. Data were collected by using pre-designed interview schedule from 1st March to 5th August, 2014. The results of the study showed that in the study area farmers cultivated tomato in 14.6% of their land and there are eight IPM practices which are generally used by the farmers in their tomato fields. Regarding the overall adoption of IPM practices in tomato cultivation, 65.0% respondent farmers were in medium to high adoption category. The IPM Practice Use Index (IPUI) was found significantly higher in case of IPM adopters than in case of IPM non-adopters. But “use of pheromone trap”, “setting up the bamboo stick in the field” and “cultivation and use of green manure” were ranked as 1st, 2nd and 3rd, respectively in case of IPM adopters whereas “setting up bamboo stick in field”, “cultivation and using green manure” and “use quality and resistant seeds” obtained 1st, 2nd and 3rd rank, respectively in case of IPM non-adopters. The average infestation of insect and disease was found significantly lower in the fields of IPM adopter (9.7%) than IPM non-adopter (11.8%). The average frequency of chemical use in the season was also significantly lower in the fields of IPM adopter (2.14 times) than IPM non-adopter (3.44 times). The marketable yield was found significantly higher in the fields of IPM adopter (51.34 t/ha) than in the fields of IPM non-adopter (42.24 t/ha). The average gross return was also significantly higher in case of IPM adopter (526,143 taka/ha) than IPM non-adopter (472,647 taka/ha). The Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR) of IPM adopter (2.41) was also found significantly higher than the BCR of IPM non-adopter (1.44).
在Gazipur区Kaligonj Upazila的Nagari联盟进行了一项实验,以确定害虫综合管理措施对番茄种植的影响。数据采用预先设计的2014年3月1日至8月5日的访谈时间表收集。研究结果表明,在研究区域,农民在14.6%的土地上种植番茄,农民在番茄地里普遍使用八种IPM方法。关于番茄种植中全面采用IPM做法的情况,65.0%的受访农民属于中高采用类别。采用IPM的情况下,IPM实践使用指数(IPUI)显著高于未采用IPM情况下。但在IPM采用者中,“信息素陷阱的使用”、“田间设置竹棒”和“绿肥的种植和使用”分别排名第一、第二和第三,而“田间设置竹棒”、,分别在IPM未采用者的情况下。采用IPM的田地的平均虫害和疾病发生率(9.7%)显著低于未采用IPM(11.8%)。采用IPM田地的季节平均化学品使用频率(2.14倍)也显著低于未使用IPM(3.44倍)。采用IPM的田地的市场产量(51.34t/ha)明显高于未采用IPM(42.24t/ha)的田地。采用IPM的平均总回报率(526143塔卡/公顷)也显著高于未采用IPM(472647塔卡/ha)。IPM采用者的效益成本比(BCR)(2.41)也显著高于IPM未采用者的BCR(1.44)。

An increased wheat yield potential under changing environmental conditions is a challenge in agriculture. Resistant wheat lines can yield more than susceptible wheat lines in the presence of Russian wheat aphid infestation. There are currently four Russian wheat aphid (RWA) biotypes known in South Africa with different virulence against different wheat cultivars. To keep up with the ever-changing patterns it is necessary to screen the cultivars for resistance against these Russian wheat aphid (RWA) biotypes. All the dryland wheat cultivars on the market were evaluated for resistance against the four known Russian wheat aphid (RWA) biotypes in South Africa. Through this evaluation, the status of Russian wheat aphid (RWA) resistance in South African dryland wheat cultivars can be updated to adapt to environmental changes and the wheat industry can adapt to changes in virulence of Russian wheat aphid (RWA) biotypes that may cause damage to Russian wheat aphid (RWA) resistant cultivars, subsequently affecting yield. Evaluations were done in the glasshouse by screening wheat cultivars against four different South African Russian wheat aphid (RWA) biotypes, RWASA1-RWASA4, under controlled conditions. The glasshouse evaluations showed that out of the 19 dryland wheat cultivars currently on the market in South Africa 16 are resistant against RWASA1, 7 are resistant against RWASA2, 7 are resistant against RWASA3 and 5 are resistant against RWASA4. Dryland wheat cultivars were also evaluated under field conditions at four different field localities. In the field, 5 cultivars were resistant to RWASA3 at two localities, respectively, and 3 and 5 cultivars were resistant to RWASA4 at two localities, respectively. Since Russian wheat aphid (RWA) damage can influence the final yield of a wheat cultivar significantly, changing conditions can influence both resistant cultivars, and the virulence of Russian wheat aphid (RWA). It is advisable to evaluate wheat cultivars on the market under different conditions and with all known Russian wheat aphid (RWA) biotypes in an area.
在不断变化的环境条件下提高小麦产量潜力是农业面临的挑战。在俄罗斯小麦蚜虫侵害的情况下,抗性小麦品系比易感小麦品系产量更高。目前南非已知四种俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWA)生物型,它们对不同的小麦品种具有不同的毒力。为了跟上不断变化的模式,有必要筛选对这些俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWA)生物型的抗性品种。在南非对市场上所有旱地小麦品种对四种已知的俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWA)生物型的抗性进行了评价。通过该评价,可以更新南非旱地小麦品种对俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWA)的抗性状况,以适应环境变化,并使小麦产业能够适应可能对俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWA)抗性品种造成损害,进而影响产量的俄罗斯小麦蚜虫生物型毒力变化。在控制条件下,通过筛选小麦品种对4种不同南非俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWASA1-RWASA4)生物型的抗性,在温室中进行了评价。温室评价结果表明,目前南非市场上的19个旱地小麦品种中,16个品种对RWASA1具有抗性,7个品种对RWASA2具有抗性,7个品种对RWASA3具有抗性,5个品种对RWASA4具有抗性。旱地小麦品种也在4个不同地区的田间条件下进行了评价。田间分别有5个品种在2个位点对RWASA3产生抗性,3个和5个品种在2个位点对RWASA4产生抗性。由于俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWA)危害可以显著影响小麦品种的最终产量,因此改变条件可以影响抗性品种和俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWA)的毒力。最好在不同条件下对市场上的小麦品种进行评估,并在一个地区使用所有已知的俄罗斯小麦蚜虫(RWA)生物型。

In the present research, the toxicity, antifeedant activity and biological effects of ethanolic leaves extract of four medicinal plants named Eucalyptus rostrata, Dodonea viscosa, Rhyza stricta and Cymbopogon schoenanthus were evaluated on 2nd, 3rd and 4th instar larvae of H. armigera under laboratory condition. The results showed that values of LC50 in mg of different plant extracts in mg/100ml of the larval diet can be arranged in an ascending order as follows: Dodonea 7.23 > Cymbopogon 12.59 > Rhazya 14.52 > Eucalyptus 29.42 mg/100ml diet (the least LC50 is more toxic than the higher one). All the tested extracts had antifeedant and starvation effects against the 2nd, 3rd, 4th instar larvae. D. viscose extract possesses the least antifeedant effect even of their higher toxicity. There was clear relation between the percent of starvation and antifeedant of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th larval instar. All extracts were nearly the same in their effect on the biotic potential; of the insect, and possess latent effect when tested against 2nd instar larvae, the value of LC 50 of the extract was added to the diet, extracts increased larval duration, deformation between pupae and adult stages, moths sterility, increased as decreasing in females egg production. Other effects were noticed, reduction in percentage of pupation and moths emergence. The plant extracts can be arranged ascending according to percentage of their sterility effects as follows: C. schoenanthus < E. rostrata < R. stricta < D. viscose. All extracts cause disruption on the biology and physiology of the insect, and all extract induced percentages of deformation between pupal and moth stages. The ethanolic extract of the plant leaves of the tested plans may be used for control H. armigera in combination with other methods in the integrated program in order to decrease the buildup of the resistance and protect the environment from chemical pollution.
本研究在实验室条件下,研究了四种药用植物桉叶、粘Dodonea粘Dodonea粘杜鹃(Dodonea粘杜鹃)、细纹柳(Rhyza stricta)和沙蚕(Cymbopogon schoenanthus)的乙醇提取物对棉铃虫2龄、3龄和4龄幼虫的毒性、拒食活性和生物学效应。结果表明:不同植物提取物在幼虫日粮mg/100ml中LC50值的大小由大到小依次为:木齿苋7.23 bbb、香蒲12.59 bb1、拉兹亚14.52 bb2、桉树29.42 mg/100ml (LC50值越小毒性越大)。所有提取物对2、3、4龄幼虫均有拒食和饥饿作用。粘胶提取物具有最小的拒食作用,即使其毒性较高。2、3、4龄幼虫的饥饿率与拒食率之间存在明显的相关关系。所有提取物对生物潜能的影响几乎相同;对2龄幼虫有潜在的抑制作用,在日粮中添加该提取物的lc50值,可增加幼虫的持续时间、蛹期和成虫期之间的变形、蛾的不育性,并随着雌蜂产卵量的减少而增加。其他效果还包括化蛹率和飞蛾羽化率的降低。各植物提取物的不育效果按百分比排列顺序依次为:花楸<花楸<花楸<粘胶菊。所有提取物都对昆虫的生物学和生理学造成破坏,所有提取物都引起蛹和蛾期之间的变形百分比。试验植物叶片乙醇提取物可与综合防治方案中的其他方法结合使用,以减少抗性的积累,保护环境免受化学污染。

An experiment to evaluate the bio-control potential of Leonotis nepetifolia and Ocimum gratissimum plant extracts against two-spotted spider mites on French beans was conducted in the field. Five plant extract concentrations (1.5%, 3.0%, 6.0% and 12.0% w/v) were applied with water and Abamectin 0.6 ml/L as controls. Mite counts were done before and after treatment application and expressed as corrected percent efficacy. The impact of the mites on the French beans was evaluated by recording percent leaf reduction and quality and quantity by number of pods, pod length, diameter and yield. There was a dose dependent response in percent mite and leaf reduction, number of pods and yield. Treatments applied at 12% w/v indicated higher mite reduction (82.75%) for L. nepetifolia and 69.06% for O. gratissimum compared to abamectin (65.76%). The lowest percent leaf reduction of 1.71% for L. nepetifolia 0.39% for O. gratissimum and abamectin (20.46%) was also at 12% w/v. Similarly, the highest number of pod (61.00) for L. nepetifolia, 48.67 for O. gratissimum compared to 28.33 abamectin and yield (0.88 kg) for L. nepetifolia and 0.90 kg for O. gratissimum was also recorded at 12% w/v compared to 0.36 kg for abamectin. There were no significant differences in pod diameter and pod length between the extracts concentrations and abamectin. The study demonstrated the efficacy of L. nepetifolia and O. gratissimum in managing two-spotted spider mite and subsequent increase in French bean yield under field conditions.
采用田间试验方法,研究了Leonotis nepetifolia和Ocimum gratissimum植物提取物对法国豆上双斑蜘蛛螨的防效。5种植物提取物浓度分别为1.5%、3.0%、6.0%和12.0% w/v,加水,以0.6 ml/L的阿维菌素为对照。螨计数在治疗应用前后进行,并表示为纠正的百分比功效。以豆荚数、豆荚长、豆荚直径、豆荚产量为指标,记录豆荚的叶减率、质量和数量,评价螨对豆荚的影响。除螨率、减叶率、荚果数和产量均呈剂量依赖性。与阿维菌素(65.76%)相比,12% w/v处理对nepetifolia L.和gratissimum O.的抑螨率分别为82.75%和69.06%。在12% w/v的情况下,山梨叶的叶片减少率最低,为1.71%,山梨叶减少率最低,为0.39%,阿维菌素减少率最低,为20.46%。同样,在12% w/v条件下,无叶扁豆的最高荚果数为61.00个,无叶扁豆的最高荚果数为48.67个,而阿维菌素的最高产量为28.33个;无叶扁豆的最高产量为0.88 kg,无叶扁豆的最高产量为0.90 kg,而阿维菌素的最高产量为0.36 kg。不同浓度的提取物对荚果直径和荚果长无显著影响。研究表明,在田间条件下,扁豆叶和扁豆叶在防治双斑蜘蛛螨和提高法国豆产量方面具有一定的效果。

Little is known on tick-borne pathogens and their role in disease in game reserves in Kenya. Ticks were collected by sterile forceps from restrained cattle hide and placed into labeled falcon tubes. Ticks were screened for pathogens by High Resolution Melting (HRM) analysis and sequencing of specific RT-PCR products of Anaplasma, Ehrlichia, and Rickettsia species. A total of 317 ticks (281 adult ticks and 36 nymphs) comprising seven species were collected around the Tsavo National Reserve (TNR) in Taita Taveta County with Amblyomma gemma being the most commonly collected species (n = 135, 42.6%). From near Shimba Hill game reserve (SHNR), a total of 240 adult’s ticks were sampled, representing eight species, with again Amblyomma gemma being the most sampled species (n = 156, 65%). From Tsavo, a total of three pools of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus were positive for Theileria parva, two pools of Rhipicephaline evertsi for Anaplasma platys and one pool of Amblyomma variegatum nymphs for Rickettsia africae. Rickettsia africae, which causes African tick-bite fever, was detected in two pools of Am. variegatum and one pool of Amblyomma gemma collected near Shimba Hill game reserve. Rickettsia sp. and Anaplasma sp. were detected in Am. gemma and Rh. evertsi respectively. Rickettsia aeschlimannii was detected in a pool of Am. gemma. These findings highlight the risk of transmission of zoonotic pathogens to humans in regions with high human-wildlife interfaces. Of specific importance, we provide evidence of R. aeschlimannii in A. gemma for the first time, representing a potential new R. aeschlimannii vectors.
人们对肯尼亚野生动物保护区的蜱传病原体及其在疾病中的作用知之甚少。用无菌镊子从受限的牛皮上收集蜱虫,放入有标签的猎鹰管中。采用高分辨率熔融(HRM)分析和特异RT-PCR产物测序技术,对蜱蜱无形体、埃利希体和立克次体进行病原体筛选。在tita Taveta县Tsavo国家级自然保护区共采集蜱7种317只,其中成蜱281只,雌雄蜱36只,其中最常见的蜱种为双眼蜱(Amblyomma gemma),占42.6%。在新巴山野生动物保护区(SHNR)附近共采集到8种成蜱240只,其中以麻蜱(Amblyomma gemma)最多(n = 156,65 %)。察沃市共有3个尾尾鼻虫小芽孢杆菌阳性,2个尾尾鼻虫无原体阳性,1个异长弱视虫阳性,非洲立克次体阳性。引起非洲蜱叮咬热的非洲立克次体在美国的两个水池中被发现。在辛巴山野生动物保护区附近采集的一池斑鲷和一池斑鲷。在Am中检出立克次体和无形体。杰玛和Rh。evertsi分别。在Am池中检测到艾氏立克次体。吉玛。这些发现突出了在人类与野生动物高度接触的地区,人畜共患病原体向人类传播的风险。特别重要的是,我们首次提供了在金秋麻中发现埃氏黑僵菌的证据,这可能是一种新的埃氏黑僵菌传播媒介。
