Biologia e controle microbiano de Urbanus acawoios (Williams, 1926) (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae): II. patologia e susceptibilidade em larvas infectadas por Bacillus thuringiensis Var. kurstaki (H-3a:3b)

Abstract: RESUMO -Devido à falta de informações sobre Urbanus acawoios (Williams, 1926) (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae), e pelos danos severos por ele causados em árvores de Clitoria racemosa, o presente trabalho foi desenvolvido sob condições de laboratório para verificar a possibilidade de utilizar Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki (H-3a:3b) como agente microbiano para o seu controle. O pH do intestino médio do hesperídeo mostrou ser bastante alcalino, variando de 8,4 a 9,2 (média de 8,7), indicando a possibilidade das… Show more

“…We observed vacuolization and degeneration in the intestinal epithelium of the D. saccharalis embryo, which is in agreement with the results of previous studies on neonatal larvae of D. saccharalis 23 . These impairments might be associated with the stimulation of the insect's immune system, such as by microbial infection and toxins 86,87 ; similar results have been observed in other lepidopterans 29,88,89 …”

“…We observed that eggs treated with Bta demonstrated gradual alteration of color, changing from an initial yellowish hue to brown and black after unsuccessful embryonic development. The color changes observed in the treated eggs were similar to the changes observed in the larval integumentary region of Urbanus acawaios treated with B. thuringiensis serovar kurstaki (Btk) 29 and of D. saccharalis treated with Bta 23 …”

“…No controle biológico de lepidópteros-pragas é comum o uso de bactérias entomopatogênicas, particularmente Bacillus thuringiencis var. kurstaki com alta eficiência (GLARE; O' CALLAGHAM, 2000), e que no caso de U. velinus já demonstrou conferir letalidade em condições de laboratório (NOGUEIRA; HABIB, 2001;NOGUEIRA;HABIB, 2002;LIMA NETO et al, 2016). Todavia, quando se pretende controlar larvas de Lepidoptera com bactérias, onde a ingestão é necessária, exigem-se certos cuidados, como a época certa da aplicação de produtos controladores, uma vez que quando as lagartas estão próximas a empupar tendem a diminuir ou paralisar sua alimentação.…”
