functional response of adult male and female of hippodamia variegata goeze (col.: coccinellidae) on peach aphid
نویسندگان
چکیده
functional response, as describing the rates of predation in different prey density, and determining the predator efficiency, is important in the regulation of prey populations. the functional response of male and female adult of lady beetle, hippodamia variegata, was studied at different densities of green peach aphid under laboratory conditions on canola brassica napus l. (cv. rgs003). nymphs were used to enhance the accuracy of contemporaries. the experiment was carried out on leaf disk of canola in petri dish in 15-20 replicates. after 24 hours number of killed prey was recorded. the results showed that male and female of hippodamia variegata revealed a type ii functional response to different density of 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 80, 128 for female, and 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 45, 70 for male. the rate of searching efficiency and handling time were assessed as 0.167 h-1 and 0.333 h for male, 0.135 h-1 and 0.193 h for female, respectively. by using an equation with indicator variable, functional responses of adult males and females were compared, it showed that searching efficiency had no significant differences, but comparisons of handling times showed significant differences. thus it can be concluded that the ability of female predators is greater than the male to control the green peach aphid.

coccinellids play a major role in aphid control. hippodamia variegata goeze is an aphidophagous predator of worldwide distribution that could be found in different parts of iran. one of the criteria for evaluating the efficiency of a predator is its response to change in prey population density (functional response). the functional responses of males and females of hippodamia variegata were stu...
متن کاملPirimicarb, an aphid selective insecticide, adversely affects demographic parameters of the aphid predator Hippodamia variegata (Goeze) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)
Demographic toxicology is recommended for toxicity determination of the long term effects of a pesticide since it gives a more accurate and efficient measure of the effect of a pesticide. Thus, in the current study the sublethal effects of pirimicarb (carbamate insecticide) two concentrations of LC30 and LC10 were used against third instar larvae of Hippodamia variegata (Goeze) in order to dete...

many of insects have re-mating behavoiur during their reproductive period. the re-mating phenomenons have been observed in many ladybirds, too. in current study, the change of proportion of male to female (sex ratio) was used in order to changing of possibility and times of re-mating in hippodamia variegata. in previous studies it has been indicated that males make up about 50% of this predator...
