Oviposition deterring infochemicals in ladybirds: the role of phylogeny

et al. 2009

Faced with an ephemeral prey, aphidophagous ladybirds rely on the hydrocarbons present in the tracks of their larvae to choose an unoccupied patch for egg laying. Although both conspecific and heterospecific larval tracks might deter females from oviposition, the response to the later is often less striking. Several explanations have been suggested to account for this. In this paper we tested the phylogeny hypothesis, which predicts that the chemical composition of the tracks of closely related species of ladybirds will be more similar to one another than to those of more distantly related species. Qualitative and quantitative information on the chemical nature of the larval tracks and a molecular phylogeny of seven species belonging to three different genera are provided, and the congruence between these two sets of results assessed. The results confirm the phylogeny hypothesis and infer a gradual mode of evolution of these infochemicals.

“…Indeed, it was shown in the field that adult females were more abundant on male-fertile (with anthers) OSR plants than on malesterile plants (with shrivelled anthers containing no pollen) during flowering of a varietal association hybrid crop, and a greater proportion of male-fertile than male-sterile buds were accepted for oviposition (Cook et al 2004a). Insect-insect semiochemical communication is also important during oviposition and host-plant acceptance behaviours (Anderson 2003). For example, pheromones such as the oviposition-deterring pheromone of another pest of OSR, the cabbage seed weevil (Ceutorhynchus assimilis Payk.)…”

“…Os ovos das traças são ofertados, livres sobre o substrato para o predador sem nenhum atrativo, enquanto que em campo, ovos do tripes são depositados em grupos e presos ao substrato no interior das galhas (TAVARES et al, 2013). A aderência dos ovos ao substrato é feita usualmente por substâncias oriundas de glândulas acessórias que podem auxiliar a localização da presa pelo predador e o seu consumo (ANDERSON, 2002). Essa aderência dos ovos ao substrato pode ter facilitado a inserção do estilete quando forçado através do córion, bem como as ninfas e adultos do tripes que estão caminhando estimulando a predação.…”

RESUMOO percevejo Montandoniola confusa Streito & Matocq tem sido citado como sendo o principal predador de Gynaikothrips ficorum Marchal, espécie monófaga que induz galhas em plantas de Ficus, como a espécie Ficus microcarpa L.f. (Moraceae). Estas espécies de fícus têm sido introduzidas em diversas partes do mundo, incluindo o Brasil, para utilização no paisagismo. Assim, este trabalho estudou o desenvolvimento e a reprodução do percevejo-predador usando o tripes, sua presa natural, comparado com ovos de Anagasta kuehniella (Zeller) e de Sitotroga cerealella Oliver, empregados como presas alternativas para a sua multiplicação. O percevejo-predador apresentou menor duração ninfal e superior viabilidade quando alimentado com o tripes e ovos de Anagasta kuehniella comparado a ovos de Sitotroga cerealella. A oviposição, no entanto, foi 2,37 e 3,71 vezes maior quando criados com o tripes em relação às presas alternativas Anagasta kuehniella e Sitotroga cereallea, respectivamente. Ovos das presas alternativas permitem a criação do predador, mas com desempenho inferior a presa natural. Palavras-chave: percevejo-predador; Ficus microcarpa; Anagasta kuehniella; Sitotroga cerealella. ABSTRACTThe predator anthocorid Montandoniola confusa Streito & Matocq has been reported as a key predator of Gynaikothrips ficorum Marchal, a monophagous species of gall-forming thripes attacking ficus trees such as Ficus microcapra L.f. (Moraceae). This species of ficus has been introduced in various regions, including in Brazil for urban forest composition. This study evaluated the development and reproduction of the predator fed its natural prey in comparison to eggs of Anagasta kuehniella (Zeller) and Sitotroga cerealella Oliver, used as factitious prey. The predator exhibited shorter nymphal development and greater viability fed thripes or eggs of Anagasta kuehniella compared to Sitotroga cerealella. The predator fed thripes produced 2.37 and 3.71 more eggs compared to eggs of Anagasta kuehniella and Sitotroga cerealella, respectively. Eggs of the factitious prey furnished development and reproduction of the predator, although resulting in lower performance compared to its natural prey.
