No estudo foram testados 3 hospedeiros: mamoeiro (Carica papaya L.), feijoeiro (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) e algodoeiro (Gossypium hirsutum H.). O experimento foi realizado nas instalações do Ministério de Agricultura de Barbados. A biologia de P. marginatus foi desenvolvida tanto em casa de vegetação como em condições de laboratório (26 l 2 oC; UR: 70 l 10% e fotofase de 14 h). A biologia de A. papayae foi desenvolvida em condições de laboratório. Para a infestação foram utilizadas 10 mudas de cada uma das plantas avaliadas. Cada uma delas foi infestada com 70 ninfas recém-eclodidas/planta. As observações foram feitas diariamente até o inseto atingir seu estado adulto. Os parâmetros avaliados foram: a) Fase imatura: longevidade ninfal para machos e fêmeas e viabilidade, b) Fase adulta: longevidade de machos e fêmeas, viabilidade e número de posturas por fêmea, viabilidade e número de ovos por fêmea, razão e proporção sexual, c) Fase de ovo: período de incubação e viabilidade dos ovos, d) Ciclo total: duração. No experimento sobre a biologia de A. papayae, para a avaliação da preferência do instar ninfal pelo parasitóide foram separadas 70 ninfas de 1o., 2o. e 3o. ínstares para cada hospedeiro, com 10 repetições.

Three hosts were tested: papaya (Carica papaya L.), common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). The experiment was carried out in the facilities of Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Barbados. The biology of P. marginatus was carried out in greenhouse and laboratory conditions (temperature of 26 2oC ; RH: 70 10 % and photophase 14 h). The biology of Acerophagus papayae was studied just in the laboratory. Ten plants of each host were used to the infestation procedure. They were infested with 70 nymphs/plant. The observations were daily until the insects became adults. The parameters evaluated were: a) Imature phase: longevity of female and male and viability, b) Mature phase: female and male longevity, viability and oviposition number by female, viability and eggs number by female, sex proportion, c) Egg phase: period of emergence of the nymphs and eggs viability. Lifespan: duration. Studying the biology of A. papayae, to evaluate the host preferred host of the parasitoid, it was separated 70 nymphs of 1st., 2nd. and 3rd. instars, maintained in each host, with 10 replications. Nymphs were offered for 10 parasitoid couples for 24 hours. The observation of the material was daily. To determinate the number of nymphs parasitized by each female, 30 nymphs were maintained in leaves and offered to a parasitoid couple for 24 hours. Evaluations were daily. To determinate other biological parameters, 70 nymphs were taken apart from the 3rd. instar and offered to 10 parasitoids for 24 hours.

Biology and management of the invasive mealybug Phenacoccus peruvianus (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) in urban landscapesBeltrà Ivars, Aleixandre 06 May 2014 (has links)
Phenacoccus peruvianus (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) is an invasive mealybug of Neotropical origin, first reported in the Mediterranean Basin in Almeria (Spain) in 1999. In the following years the mealybug spread into other Mediterranean regions and has also been recorded in Portugal and France, as well as in Sicily, Corsica and the Balearic Islands. Phenacoccus peruvianus is a polyphagous species and damages economically important ornamental plants. Since this was a relatively unknown species, during the first years of invasion, the mealybug was managed by the application of chemical treatments with wide-spectrum pesticides. However, the latest European directive on pesticide use reduces or even forbids pesticide applications in a wide range of urban green areas, giving significant priority to biological control (European Parliament and Council 2009). This thesis sets the basis for introducing biological control into a P. peruvianus management program in urban landscapes, focusing on its characterization, sampling, biology and control.
In order to facilitate the identification of this and other mealybug species, we characterised 33 mealybug populations infesting crops and ornamental plants in Eastern Spain, using a combination of molecular and morphological techniques. This characterisation led to the identification of ten mealybug species and made routine identification possible through DNA sequencing or the use of derived species-specific molecular tools. The sequences obtained also add to the phylogenetic knowledge of the Pseudococcidae family and provide insight into the invasion history of some species.
Phenacoccus peruvianus populations were high in bougainvillea plants during spring and summer, declining to almost undetectable levels in autumn and winter. The mealybug was mainly found in bracts and there were no significant migrations between plant strata. Phenacoccus peruvianus showed a high aggregated distribution on bracts, leaves and twigs. We recommend a binomial sampling of 200 leaves and an action threshold of 55% infested leaves for IPM purposes in urban landscapes.
Its most abundant natural enemies were found to be the primary parasitoids Acerophagus n. sp. near coccois and Leptomastix epona Walker (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae). We also identified several predator species from the Anthocoridae, Coccinellidae, Chamaemyiidae, and Chrysopidae families. Phenacoccus peruvianus populations were lower during the second and third year of the survey, coinciding with an increase in the parasitoid Acerophagus sp. populations, which displaced the native L. epona. Differential female offspring and resource preemption are discussed as the main reasons for this displacement.
To obtain further information on the biology of the new parasitoid Acerophagus sp. we determined some traits of its reproductive and feeding strategies. Acerophagus sp. egg load reached its maximum when it was 5 days old with almost 30 mature eggs. Phenacoccus peruvianus second and third nymphal instars and adults were suitable for parasitism and efficient encapsulation was low (10.76 ± 0.31 %). The parasitoid always preferred older instars when different host instars were available. Acerophagus sp. developed as a solitary parasitoid in the second instar and as a gregarious parasitoid in older instars (2¿4 parasitoids per host). Moreover, it reproduced parthenogenetically and all the emerged offspring were females. Immature development lasted between 20 and 22 days at 25°C and 65% HR. Under these conditions, adults lived for longer than 20 days when fed on honey, but fewer than 3 days when fed on naturally occurring sugar sources (host honeydew and Bougainvillea glabra flowers). / Beltrà Ivars, A.
