The seasonal abundance of hymenopteran parasitoids reared from the agromyzid leafminer Chromatomyia horticola was monitored on garden pea in Shizuoka, central Japan, for 17 months between 2004 and 2005. The leafminer was abundant during the cool seasons (December to May) but parasitoid populations generally lagged behind the leafminer by approximately two months. Twenty-one parasitoid species were reared from C. horticola, and the most abundant parasitoid species were Diglyphus isaea, D. minoeus and Chrysocharis pentheus, comprising ca. 90% of the total number caught. Diglyphus isaea and D. minoeus were abundant during the cool season (December to May), while C. pentheus was abundant in the warm season (May to June). Other common parasitoid species were Dacnusa nipponica, Neochrysocharis formosa and Halticoptera circulus. The effects of two insecticides, malathion and tralomethrin, on parasitoid populations were investigated both in the cool and warm seasons. The insecticides caused a reduction in the density of most parasitoid species for at least one month and resulted in resurgence of the leafminer. However, the density of H. circulus increased after insecticide applications, suggesting that this parasitoid was tolerant to both insecticides but H. circulus could not reduce C. horticola populations when insecticide applications were made to the crop. These studies provide insight into the development of integrated control strategies of leafminer pests in field and glasshouse crops.

“…Given that H. varicornis has been recorded from an extensive range of latitudes, from 35°N (Shizuoka, Japan, Amano et al . ) to 42°S (Lake St Clair, Tasmania, Australia, Driessen et al . ), an investigation of thermal adaptation (Hoffmann ; Overgaard et al .…”

“…The influence of temperature on development of H. varicornis has been examined in multiple studies ( Table S4). Given that H. varicornis has been recorded from an extensive range of latitudes, from 35°N (Shizuoka, Japan, Amano et al 2008) to 42°S (Lake St Clair, Tasmania, Australia, Driessen et al 2013), an investigation of thermal adaptation (Hoffmann 2010;Overgaard et al 2011;Furlong & Zalucki 2017) of Australian populations of H. varicornis along a latitudinal gradient should provides insights into its potential importance as a biological control agent for L. sativae in Australia.…”

The vegetable leafminer, Liriomyza sativae Blanchard, poses a risk to vegetable and nursery production in mainland Australia since established in Cape York in 2015. Effective control overseas depends on maximising the impact of natural enemies. Problems with polyphagous Liriomyza pest species typically result from the destruction of their parasitoids by excessive use of non‐selective insecticides. Field studies are reviewed to identify parasitoid species involved in the biological control of L. sativae in open‐air and glasshouse production internationally and to assess the current knowledge of parasitoids of agromyzids in Australia. Overseas, invading Liriomyza populations have frequently been exploited by endemic parasitoids (often found on non‐pest agromyzid species), and non‐crop hosts have played a role as reservoirs of these parasitoids. The few published Australian field studies on the occurrence of agromyzid flies and their parasitoids show a large community of wasps attacking agromyzids, with species mainly from the Eulophidae, Pteromalidae and Braconidae. The most abundant recorded species are two cosmopolitan eulophid species, Hemiptarsenus varicornis (Girault) and Diglyphus isaea (Walker), and four Australian species: two eulophid species, Zagrammosoma latilineatum Ubaidillah and Closterocerus mirabilis Edwards & La Salle, one pteromalid species, Trigonogastrella sp., and one braconid species, Opius cinerariae Fischer, for which there is little biological information. One deficiency in the known assemblage in Australia is the absence of parasitoids from the Eucoilinae (Hymenoptera: Figitidae), a subfamily with several abundant species attacking agromyzids overseas. The composition and impact of the endemic parasitoid assemblage in Australia on populations of L. sativae needs to be assessed adequately in the field before the importation of additional exotic parasitoid species is contemplated. Overseas, two species, D. isaea and Dacnusa sibirica Telenga, are reared commercially for augmentative biological control, although the relatively high cost of production has restricted their release to protected cropping situations. Knowledge gaps remain locally about the taxonomy, distribution, host range and life cycle of parasitoids, and their potential impact on L. sativae.

ORCID IDs: 0000-0002-7563-0918 (H.A.); 0000-0003-0802-6208 (M.Y.H.).Here, we analyzed the interaction between Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and the American serpentine leafminer (Liriomyza trifolii), an important and intractable herbivore of many cultivated plants. We examined the role of the immunity-related plant hormone jasmonate (JA) in the plant response and resistance to leafminer feeding to determine whether JA affects host suitability for leafminers. The expression of marker genes for the JA-dependent plant defense was induced by leafminer feeding on Arabidopsis wild-type plants. Analyses of JA-insensitive coi1-1 mutants suggested the importance of JA in the plant response to leafminer feeding. The JA content of wild-type plants significantly increased after leafminer feeding. Moreover, coi1-1 mutants showed lower feeding resistance against leafminer attack than did wild-type plants. The number of feeding scars caused by inoculated adult leafminers in JA-insensitive coi1-1 mutants was higher than that in wild-type plants. In addition, adults of the following generation appeared only from coi1-1 mutants and not from wild-type plants, suggesting that the loss of the JA-dependent plant defense converted nonhost plants to accessible host plants. Interestingly, the glucosinolate-myrosinase defense system may play at most a minor role in this conversion, indicating that this major antiherbivore defense of Brassica species plants probably does not have a major function in plant resistance to leafminer. Application of JA to wild-type plants before leafminer feeding enhanced feeding resistance in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), and garland chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium). Our results indicate that JA plays an important role in the plant response and resistance to leafminers and, in so doing, affects host plant suitability for leafminers.
