“…Se registraron estadísticamente valores superiores a 29°C, se registraron valores intermedios a 27 y 25°C, y los inferiores correspondieron a 23°C, exceptuando la tasa neta de reproducción que registró valores superiores a 29°C e inferiores a 27, 25, y 23°C. En proyectos de control biológico, la tasa intrínseca de incremento se usa para comparar diferentes especies benéficas o subpoblaciones, y se considera que un organismo tiene más potencial cuando tiene una mayor tasa que su contraparte (Huffaker et al 1976, Morales-Ramos et al 2014); por lo que con base en los resultados previamente mencionados se concluye estadísticamente que la temperatura óptima para tener la colonia de T. drosophilae es 29°C. Con respecto a los parámetros tiempo generacional medio y de duplicación, en general sus valores numéricos no variaron entre tratamientos, solo se registraron valores estadísticamente inferiores cuando T. drosophilae fue reproducida a 23°C.…”

“…Ajustes pequeños en los métodos de reproducción de insectos benéficos, e.g., cantidad o tipo de ingredientes utilizados en una dieta artificial (Cohen 2015, Morales-Ramos et al 2014, González-Cabrera et al 2018b), pueden aumentar la productividad de la colonia en la primera generación, pero también se pueden ocasionar efectos negativos difíciles de distinguir (por ejemplo, producción de huevos de menor talla) (Moussseau 1991; Chen 2008). Si se presentaran no-percibidos efectos negativos y dichos organismos se liberarán en campo, no se lograría el control de la plaga objetivo (Delrio et al 2005, Alavo 2006); liberando individuos de baja calidad, aunque sean liberaciones masivas, no controlan las plagas objetivo (Dutton et al 1996, Coelho et al 2016).…”

“…Hal ini diduga meskipun kandungan protein dalam MPASI beras merah rendah, tetapi terdapat nutrisi lain yang terkandung dalam bahan pakan sehingga dapat mendukung pertumbuhan serangga. Rasio dasar kebutuhan makro nutrisi G. mellonella pada fase larva menurut Ramos et al (2014), yaitu karbohidrat (0%), protein (0,35%), dan lemak (0,65%). Kebutuhan lemak yang tinggi pada fase larva diakibatkan lemak yang dikonsumsi berperan penting dalam proses kelangsungan hidup serangga menuju fase berikutnya.…”

The greater wax moth (Galleria mellonella (Linnaeus)) is one of Asia’s most essential pests in honey beekeeping. Apart from being a pest, G. mellonella was also used as a test insect in several business fields. The needs of the population of G. mellonella encourage several areas of the business to cultivate it practically and economically. This study aimed to determine and examine the composition of food ingredients as an artificial diet that can affect the growth and development of G. mellonella. The test consisted of four different feed-modified formulas, namely P1 (corn flour, wheat, glycerol, and yeast), P2 (rice flour, wheat flour, wheat bran, glycerol, and yeast), P3 (wheat flour, wheat, glycerol, and yeast), and P4 (brown rice, glycerol, and yeast). The observation criteria were life cycle, mortality rate, fecundity, and egg fertility of the G. mellonella moth. Based on the study’s results, the life cycle development of G. mellonella was the shortest in the P3 treatment (71.5 ± 5.2 days) and the longest P4 treatment (84.2 ± 8.3 days). The highest mortality rate was in the P3 feed type at 13.12%, while the lowest occurred in the P4 treatment at 4.44%. Based on the fecundity of female imago, treatment P4 had the highest fecundity level of 527.7 eggs/female, while treatment P1 was the lowest (169.6 eggs/female). P4 treatment responded best to several biological aspects of the G. mellonella moth, such as larger body size, lower mortality, and high fecundity rates.

“…At present, prey aphids are the main ingredient in the ladybug diet, and this diet has a high economic cost, long production cycle, and is not easy to control or store. An ideal artificial ladybird diet can greatly reduce production costs and times (Morales-Ramos et al, 2023); unfortunately, the survival, fecundity and hatching rates of ladybirds supplied with artificial diets were generally low (Cheng et al, 2022;Ricupero et al, 2020;Singh et al, 2014;Zeng & Chen, 2009). These barriers are primarily related to the nutritional composition of artificial diets and hormonal regulation.…”

When Coccinella septempunctata L. was fed on an artificial diet, development was prolonged and survival and reproduction were decreased, thus negatively affecting population growth. Juvenile hormone and moulting hormones are important factors in insect reproduction and development. This study aims to screen out the optimal hormones that can solve the problems such as slow population growth of the C. septempunctata during mass rearing, thus improving their effectiveness as a biological control agent. The effects of juvenile hormone analogues and moulting hormones on C. septempunctata larval growth and adult reproduction were investigated by supplementing an artificial diet with different doses of methoprene, kinoprene, juvenile hormone Ш, fenoxycarb and 20‐hydroxyecdysone. Multiple parameters were measured for C. septempunctata including development, survival, pupation, emergence, pre‐oviposition, fecundity and hatching rates. The addition of juvenile hormone analogues to the diet significantly lengthened larval development times and reduced pupation and emergence. Conversely, juvenile hormone analogues significantly shortened pre‐oviposition period, reduced survival and increased fecundity. The shortest pre‐oviposition period was 9.6 days, and the highest oviposition number was 578 eggs in response to 5 μL kinoprene. The highest hatching rate was 66% in 1.7 mg 20‐hydroxyecdysone treatment. The results of this study provide a theoretical basis for hormone selection and dosage in C. septempunctata artificial diets, thus enhancing the survival, pupation and emergence of larvae and improving the fecundity and hatching rate of ladybird adults.
