Effects of landscape habitats on birds and insect natural enemies and maize aphid populations were analyzed in five different habitats. The results showed that the populations of ladybird ( Propylaea Japonica) and lacewing ( Chrysopa perla) were the largest in farmland landscape with 20% of non-maize fields, while ladybird ( Harmonia axyridis) was the largest in farmland landscape with 30% of non-maize habitats. The farmland landscape with 15%, 20%, 30% and 40% non-maize habitat were conducive to the conservation of Chinese bulbul ( Pycnonotus sinensis) and turtle dove ( Streptopelia turtur), sparrows ( Passer montanus), magpie ( Pica pica) and house swallow ( Hirundo rustica), and hoopoe ( Upupa epops), respectively. The cumulative quantity of maize aphid was the lowest in the farmland landscape with 30% of non-maize habitats. The results of exclusion of birds and natural enemies showed that they had significant control on maize aphid. The farmland landscape with 20% non-maize habitat can conserve more natural enemies and reduce maize aphid, and improve the biological control service of farmland landscape on maize pests.

Although EBPM techniques have been successfully applied in the field level to control many agricultural pests with sustainable and green characteristics, the systematic strategies of EBPM from field level to regional scale still lack. In order to solve regional EBPM of agricultural pests, we summarized the landscape characteristics of pest population, including regional distribution, heterogeneity, diffusivity, outbreak, and synergy. Then, we clarified the systematic strategies of regional EBPM, which included preventive management, targeted management and post-outbreak control. A regional strategy of prevention, management, and control would be effective to suppress outbreak of agricultural pests. Finally, we summarized the advantage of regional EBPM in the future, which emphasize safety, efficiency, precision and sustainability of insect pest management. Therefore, the regional EBPM is an inevitable choice to ensure the ecological security and agricultural food production in the future.

As important biocontrol agents, parasitoids usually provide efficient natural control of insect pests. This study aimed to clarify the occurrence of C. viridis as well as the biological characteristics of its egg parasitoids in Xinjiang, which may provide basic information that can benefit the conservation of native parasitic natural enemies and the biological control of C. viridis via mass-rearing and release of parasitoids. During 2014-2015, the life history of C. viridis was investigated in Manas National Wetland Park. C. viridis had two generations annually and overwintered as eggs in this region. Two egg parasitoid species of C. viridis were identified, Paracentrobia exilimaculata Hu & Lin was a worldwide first report parasitizing C. viridis and Gonatocerus longicornis Nees was a first report in China. The natural parasitism rate by the dominant egg parasitoid G. longicornis peaked in early September (74.96%) and averaged 49.70%. The eclosion rate and the sex ratio increased and then decreased with the increase of temperature from 15℃ to 40℃. The immature stage (from egg to adult emergence) took 9 to 16 days, averaging 14. 25 days. The lifespan of adult wasps fed with 15% honey solution ranged from 6 to12 days (Female:9.38 d; Male:8.50 d), and the females lived 1-2 days longer than the males. The optimal rearing conditions for G. longicornis were 30℃, 45% RH and photoperiod 14L:10D, and these conditions favored its parasitization of C. viridis. The parasitoid has high potential for the biological control against C. viridis.

The results indicated there were six lacewing species in weed strips of northern Xinjiang, with the dominant species of Chrysopa carnea (64.8%) and Chrysopa phyllochroma (25.8%). The density of lacewings varied significantly on different weeds. Medicago sativa and Cannabis sativa harbored significantly higher lacewing densities among all weed species in 2015 and 2016, respectively. Higher densities of lacewings were found on Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Apocynum venetum, Sophora alopecuroides in 2017. Besides, obvious seasonal fluctuation of lacewing density was also observed. The density of lacewings during flowering and boll-opening stages of cotton (July-September) was significantly higher than that in cotton seedling and bud stages (May-June). This study clarified population composition, densities, and dynamics of lacewings on various weeds adjacent to cotton fields in northern Xinjiang. M. sativa, C. sativa, G. uralensis, A. venetum, and S. alopecuroides were proved to have the potential as functional plants for lacewing conservation. These results provide a scientific basis to promote the conservation and biological control service of predatory lacewings.

In this study, a fungus was isolated from diseased larvae of S. frugiperda collected in Nanning, Guangxi. The species was identified using morphological characterization and ITS-rDNA sequence analysis, and the pathogenicity of the strain to the larvae, prepupa, and pupa of S. frugiperda were determined by immersion method in the laboratory. The pathogen was identified as Metarhizium rileyi, named CDTLJ1, could infect the larvae, prepupa, and pupa of S. frugiperda. The 1.20×10 7 conidia/mL concentration treatment caused 100%, 100%, 100%, 100%, 98.33%, 28.33%, and 20.00% corrected mortality of 2 nd, 3 rd, 4 th, 5 th and 6 th instar larvae, prepupa, and pupa on the 6 th day post treatment, and resulted in median lethal time (LT50) values of 3.91 d—4.24 d for the 2 nd to 6 th instar larvae. The mortality rate of the 3 rd instar larvae caused by infection of M. rileyi strain CDTLJ1 increased with the rising of concentration of conidial suspension. When the concentration reached 1×10 8 conidia/mL, LT50 was 4.10 d, the corrected accumulative mortality reached 100% and the median lethal concentration (LC 50) was 1.12×10 4 conidia/mL on the 6 th day post treatment. These results show that the M. rileyi strain CDTLJ1 has a high biocontrol potential for use against S. frugiperda and deserves further research and utilization.

Aphis fabae prefers leguminous plants and is safe to tea plant, and is a prey that can satisfy the growth and reproduction needs of Orius strigicollis. Therefore a banker plant system consisting of A. fabae as alternative prey, Vicia faba as banker plant, and O. strigicollis as natural enemy was established to control tea pests. The control efficacy of the banker plant system was compared with that of the direct release of O. strigicollis on the tea aphid Toxoptera aurnantii in the laboratory. T. aurnantii, Dendrothrips minowai and Empoasca onukii, the three principal pest species in tea plants, can all be preyed by O. strigicollis. The control efficacy of the banker plant system and the direct release of O. strigicollis on the three pests were also investigated in field experiment. The results showed that, in the laboratory experiment, the population size of T. aurnantii was significantly lower and the population decline rate and control efficacy of T. aumantii were significantly higher in the banker plant system than in the direct release of O. strigicollis in the first three surveys. The banker plant system achieved control efficacy as high as 92.16%, while the direct release of O. strigicollis reached control efficacy of only 72.25%, indicating a potential of the banker plant system to be used in the field for tea pest control. In the field experiment, the layout of the banker plants (strips, blocks and dots) showed no significant influence on the control efficacy of tea pests. Both the banker plant system and the direct release of O. strigicollis resulted in significant control of E. onukii, as high as 90%, but they did not have significant control of T. aurnantii and D. minowai. These results indicate potential of both the banker plant system and the direct release of O. strigicollis for control of tea pests, but depending on the co-occurring pest species.

Metarhizium anisopliae plays an important role in biological control of F. occidentalis. In this study, the M18-8-4 Strains were screened out from 23 M. anisopliae strains, of which the F1 and F2 strains were obtained by UV mutagenesis. In this study, the high toxic strains were obtained through toxicity tests in the laboratory, and their control of F. occidentalis was tested in the field. The results showed that, when tested at the same concentration of spore suspension, the strain F2-M18-8-4 had the strongest laboratory toxicity to F. occidentalis, with a median lethal time of 2.13 d. The control efficacies of F2-M18-8-4 and 3 chemical pesticides on F. occidentalis were evaluated in terms of the corrected population decline rate of F. occidentalis, the corrected peanut leaf protection rate, and the peanut yield increase rate. The corrected population decline rate of F. occidentalis did not differ significantly between F2-M18-8-4 and the 3 chemical pesticides at 7 days and 10 days post application, whereas at 15 days post application, the corrected population decline rate of F. occidentalis was higher in F2-M18-8-4 than in the 3 pesticides reaching 79.52%; and the peanut leaf protection rate was the highest, up to 63.58%, followed by Spinetoram at 58.11%. The peanut yield increase rate of F2-M18-8-4 was 9.09%. The results suggest the highly virulent strains can substitute for chemical pesticides in the control of F. occidentalis.

The local potential natural enemies of S. frugiperda in Jiangsu Province and their control of S. frugiperda in maize fields were investigated during August to September 2020 in the main corn planting areas of 8 cities or counties in Jiangsu Province. The results showed that the infestation rate of S. frugiperda to maize plants was more than 50% in all the survey sites. The main species of natural enemies were parasitic wasps ( Campoletis chloride; Microgatrinae; Braconidae), entomopathogenic fungi ( Beauveria, Metarhizium, Nomuraea rileyi), and ladybugs ( Harmonia axyridis; Scymnus (Neopullus) hoffmanni Weise), and many other species of natural enemies such as parasitic flies, bacteria, and viruses. The parasitism rate of parasitic natural enemy insects was between 0% and 24.55%, and the infection rate of entomopathogenic microorganisms was between 2.33% and 56.41%, which shows high potential for preventing and controlling S. frugiperda. Although the occurrence of S. frugiperda in corn fields in Jiangsu Province is serious, the rich resources of natural enemies can provide reliable prevention and control of S. frugiperda.

From April to October, eleven species from four families (subfamilies) wood-boring pests, and parasitic wasp adults were collected continuously from the insect cages. The dominant wood-boring pests species ranked as Cryphalus fulvus Niisima, Tomicus minor (Hartig), Rhagium inquisitor (Linnaeus), Arhopalus rusticus (Linnaeus), Acanthocinus griseus (Fabricius), Hylastes plumbeus Blandford, and Asemum striatum (Linnaeus). The dominant parasitic wasp species ranked as Atanycolus initiator (Fabricius), Spathius sp., Rhyssa jozana Matsumura, and Pseudorhyssa nigricornis (Ratzeburg). Dissection tests of quarantine timber revealed that population size of R. inquisitor and A. griseus larvae did not differ in different parts of the trunk. Arhopalus rusticus larvae were of the highest population size in the bottom part and were more than those in the middle and upper part. Cryphalus fulvus dominated in the middle and upper part of P. tabulaeformis trunk, T. minor was the most at the trunk height of 2.0-4.0 m, A. griseus and R. inquisitor were of relatively uniform population size at different trunk heights, A. rusticus dominated in the bottom part of the trunk, A. initiator was the dominant species, especially at the trunk height of 2.0-4.0 m, Spathius sp. distributed more at the trunk height of 4.0-10.0 m. The results specified in this paper are of great significance for the control of local pests and further development and utilization of insect natural enemy resources.

Six treatments were set: 100 billion CFU/mL B. amyloliquefaciens, 20 billion CFU/mL P. polymyxa, 100 million CFU/g fungal biocontrol strains, 100 billion CFU/mL B. amyloliquefaciens + 100 million CFU/g fungal biocontrol strains, 20 billion CFU/mL P. polymyxa + 100 million CFU/g fungal biocontrol strains, and 25% fludioxoni. The experimental varieties was No.8 Luhua. All of the tested agents had certain effects on peanut yield increase, and peanut root rot and Sclerotium blight. The seedling emergence rate, yield increase rate were the highest by 100 billion CFU/mL B. amyloliquefaciens + 100 million CFU/g fungal biocontrol strains (TB), which were 94.35% and 23.15%, respectively. Thirty days after seedling emergence, the control efficiency on peanut root rot was 76.95%. And after 60 days, the control efficiency on peanut root rot and Sclerotium rolfsii reached 83.54% and 83.88%. That has high application prospect on agricultural green prevention and control technology extension.

However, the role of adult feeding of water and sugar in mating and reproduction is not clear. In this study, the effects of adult feeding on the survival, ovarian development, and reproduction of S. frugiperda were investigated by means of ovarian anatomy and behavioral observation. It was found that, without feeding, the moths had a short survival (about 3 days), immature ovaries (below grade 2), low mating rate (22.00%), very few oviposition (5.8 eggs), and nearly no hatched eggs (3.0%). However, the moths fed with water and sugar had longer survival (6—8 days), more mature ovaries (3.4—3.6 grades), higher mating rate (61.1%—66.7%), larger number of oviposition (436—1281 eggs), and higher rate of hatched eggs (more than 95%). Feeding had no significant effect on the mating number of mated females (1.1—1.7 times) and the mating rate of immature females (18.2%—22.9%). The longevity (8.06 days) and fecundity (1281 eggs) of female moths fed with sugar solution were significantly higher than those fed with pure water (6.57 days and 436 eggs, respectively), while there were no significant differences in survival time of male moths, ovarian development grade, mating rate and egg hatching rate between the two groups. Our results show that water is the necessary supplement for the survival and reproduction of S. frugiperda, and sugar only increases the fecundity of female moth. These results provide a basis for the accurate monitoring and effective control of S. frugiperda. Reference | Related Articles | Metrics
