许多粉虱寄生蜂雌蜂对粉虱若虫的攻击方式不仅是寄生,而且还能取食。本文以海氏桨角蚜小蜂Eretmocerus hayati作为测试寄生蜂,Q隐种烟粉虱和温室白粉虱作为寄主,在非选择和双向选择条件下调查了寄生蜂对寄主的取食和寄生选择性。研究结果表明,非选择试验条件下,海氏桨角蚜小蜂48 h内取食1~4龄烟粉虱和温室白粉虱若虫的数量分别为10.7、6.4、6.7、5.0头和4.4、3.7、2.8、2.3头,寄生1~4龄烟粉虱若虫的数量分别为22.1、27.5、25.4、16.5头,但不能寄生各龄期温室白粉虱若虫;而在选择试验条件下,寄生蜂取食1~4龄烟粉虱若虫的数量分别为同龄期温室白粉虱若虫数量的1.8、2.6、2.5、1.5倍。说明寄生蜂的取食寄主能力明显受寄主种类和龄期的影响。海氏桨角蚜小蜂更适合用来防治烟粉虱,但不适于防治温室白粉虱。
Many species of parasitoids not only parasitize whitefly hosts but can also feed them. Host feeding and parasitism preference in Eretmocerus hayati for nymphs of Bemisia tabaci Q biotype and Trialeurodes vaporariorum was studied under no-choice and paired-choice conditions. In no-choice test, the number of 1st to 4th instar nymphs of B. tabaci predated by a female E. hayati in 48 h was 10.7, 6.4, 6.7, and 5.0, respectively, and the number of 1st to 4th instar nymphs parasitized was 22.1, 27.5, 25.4, and 16.5, respectively. In contrast, the number of 1st to 4th instar nymphs of T. vaporariorum fed by a female E. hayati in 48 h was 4.4, 3.7, 2.8, and 2.3, respectively, and no nymphs was parasitized. In paired-choice test with the same stage nymphs of B. tabaci and T. vaporariorum, the number of 1st to 4th nymphs of B. tabaci fed by E. hayati was 1.8, 2.6, 2.5, and 1.5 folds more than those of T. vaporariorum, respectively. These results indicate that whitefly host species and host stage
