چکیده

the aphid species, cinara pini (linnaeus, 1758) reported in our previous work as a new aphid on pinus trees for iran, was described using the classic method and through analysis of coi gene sequence. in the next step, we addressed the efficiency of the entomopathogenic fungus, lecanicillium longisporum (zimm.) zare and gams strain lrc 190, on the aphid. the fungus was administered to the second instar nymphs and adults using topical application procedure. the results indicated that the entomopathogen caused 90% mortality in adults over seven days at a concentration of 108 spores/ml, while the same control level was achieved for nymphs by 8 × 107 spores/ml. the lc50 values were obtained as 1.2 × 106 and 6.9 × 105 spores/ml for adults and nymphs, respectively. the present study suggests that the entomopathogenic fungus, l. longisporum could be considered as a potential candidate in biocontrol programs of c. pini. this is the first report on the pathogenicity of l. longisporum on c. pini.

during a survey on pests of pine trees, pinus mugo turra, in april 2010 in mashhad, a colony of an aphid was observed in abundant populations on the seedlings, belongs to the subfamily cinarinae and family lachnidae, being identified as cinara pini (linnaeus, 1758). the blast sequence to c. pini in the gene bank showed that the species was most similar to c. atlantica with 93% similarity. the m...

Effects of Lecanicillium longisporum infection on the behaviour of the green peach aphid Myzus persicae.

The effects of the entomopathogenic fungus Lecanicillium longisporum (Zimmerman) Zare & Gams on three parameters of behaviour (feeding, reproduction and movement) of the green peach aphid Myzus persicae (Homoptera: Aphididae) were investigated in the laboratory. Visual analysis of video tapes established that honeydew excretion events of mycosed aphids gradually declined from 2 d post inoculati...

Redescription of males of the aphid species Cinara (Cupressobium) tujafilina and Cinara (Cupressobium) cupressi (Hemiptera, Lachninae).

This paper presents the first comprehensive description of the winged males of Cinara tujafilina and Cinara cupressi (Hemiptera, Lachninae) and establishes the morphological characters enabling differentiation between them. We show that some populations of C. tujafilina, a species considered to be anholocyclic, may not have lost the genetic ability to produce males and under favourable conditio...
