Ethylene can reduce Prays oleae attack in olive trees
An ethrel treatment of olive trees in two sites differing in altitude caused a decline in the infestation of Prays oleae, an important pest in this crop. Since the ethylene treatment did not affect natural enemies of P. oleae, we conclude that this natural compound can be used as an alternative to the use of pesticides in olive orchards. The results of this work indicate that ethrel affects P. ...
متن کاملDevelopmental and Reproductive Biology of the Ectoparasitoid, Elasmus steffani, in a Substitute Host, Ephestia kuehniella
Elasmus steffani (Viggiani) (Hymenoptera: Elasmidae) is a gregarious idiobiont ectoparasitoid of Prays oleae (Bernard) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae), an olive crop pest. In the substitute host Ephestia kuehniella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), the duration of the developmental stages was approximately 11-15 days. The preoviposition was 8.9 ± 5.0 days, and oviposition lasted 30.4 ± 10.5 days, w...
متن کاملIn silico prediction of neuropeptides in Hymenoptera parasitoid wasps
Parasitoid wasps of the order Hymenoptera, the most diverse groups of animals, are important natural enemies of arthropod hosts in natural ecosystems and can be used in biological control. To date, only one neuropeptidome of a parasitoid wasp, Nasonia vitripennis, has been identified. This study aimed to identify more neuropeptides of parasitoid wasps, by using a well-established workflow that ...
متن کاملBiology and parasitism rates of Pteromalus nr. myopitae (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae), a newly discovered parasitoid of olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae (Diptera: Tephritidae) in coastal California
An undescribed wasp, Pteromalus nr. myopitae (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) opportunistically parasitizes the olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae (Rossi) (Diptera: Tephritidae), an introduced pest of olives in California. The native or typical host of P. nr. myopitae is unknown. We demonstrate that P. nr. myopitae is a solitary, ectoparasitic, idiobiont parasitoid of the third instar host inside frui...
متن کاملAutomictic parthenogenesis in the parasitoid Venturia canescens (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) revisited.
Both arrhenotokous and thelytokous reproduction are known to occur in the parasitoid wasp Venturia canescens. The cytological mechanism of thelytoky was previously reported to involve the formation of a restitution metaphase after the reduction division, but the exact nature of the subsequent divisions, whether reductional or equational, remained unclear. We reinvestigated the cytological mecha...
