Identification of Two Diamondback Moth Parasitoids, Diadegma fenestrale and Diadegma semiclausum, Using LAMP for Application in Biological Control

چکیده

The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella L., is a lepidopteran pest that damages various vegetable plants belonging to the genus Brassica worldwide. Various biological controls, such as parasitoid wasps, have been used control this pest. Among these, Diadegma semiclausum and Diadegmafenestrale are widely globally. In field-based research, investigation of population dynamics parasitoids rate parasitism within very important. However, achieving profundity in research difficult when morphologically similar species coexist field. morphological characteristics D. fenestrale similar, they both parasitize P. larvae. Therefore, accurately identify these species, study, we developed molecular diagnostic method by using loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). mitochondrial genome partial nucleotide sequences, including ITS region semiclausum, were analyzed for use diagnosis markers. results showed homology was 94%, due excessively low D loop, but actual higher than particularly coding region. species-specific primers LAMP designed based on encoding COX3, optimal reaction condition four (F3, B3, FIP, BIP) 63 °C 35 min. A primer capable classifying ITS2 region, 40 Under conditions upon addition loop LB, efficiency increased, time shortened more 5 limit concentration up 10 pg under conditions; therefore, it possible detect even concentrations. For assay with DNA-releasing technique, without DNA extraction process, incubating tissue sample or homogenized whole body at 95 case fenestrale, diagnose can be variety ways determine whether has parasitized process field mass breeding, distinguish parasitic This LAMP-based applied xylostella.

Spread and global population structure of the diamondback moth Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) and its larval parasitoids Diadegma semiclausum and Diadegma fenestrale (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) based on mtDNA.

The diamondback moth (DBM) (Plutella xylostella) is one of the main pests of brassicaceous crops worldwide and shows resistance against a wide range of synthetic insecticides incurring millions of dollars in control costs every year. The DBM is a prime example of the introduction of an exotic species as a consequence of globalization. In this study we analyzed the genetic population structure o...

Interspecific competition between Diadegma semiclausum Hellen and Diadegma mollipla (Holmgren), parasitoids of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L), feeding on a new host plant.

Interspecific competition between an introduced parasitoid species aimed at controlling a herbivorous pest species and a native parasitoid parasitising the same host may influence the success of classical biological control programmes. In Kenya, interspecific competition between an introduced and a local parasitoid on two diamondback moth populations (DBM, Plutella xylostella) was investigated ...

Effects of nectar-producing plants on Diadegma insulare (Cresson), a biological control agent of diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.)

Effects of nectar-producing plants (NPP) on the longevity, fecundity, oviposition and nectar-collecting behaviour of Diadegma insulare were studied. Longevity and fecundity of D. insulare were varied with morphological characters of NPP’s flowers. Brassica kaber (D.C) Wheeler, Barbarea vulgaris R. Br. and Daucus carota L. supplied nectar and resulted in D. insulare longevity and fecundity equal...

Hymenopterous Parasitoids Associated with Diamondback Moth: the Taxonomic Dilemma

Attempts to control diamondback moth Plutella xylostella (L.) using insect parasitoids have not been entirely successful. Parasitoids which have been utilized include Diadegma species and Cotesia plutellae. A better understanding of the systematics of these Hymenoptera could lead to their more effective exploitation in biological control. Diadegma is a very large and difficult genus of lchneumo...

16 Biological Control of Diamondback Moth

The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L), is recognized as a widely distributed and serious pest of crucifers in many countries. In some countries, however, it is effectively suppressed by parasites. These are critically examined as are the various attempts to import parasites and to release them. The appraisal reveals that the parasites of P. xylostella are a valuable control component an...
