چکیده
developmental periodsof thegrapevine aphid, aphis illinoisensis shimer (hemiptera: aphididae) on the grape, vitis vinifera l., and its two parasitoid species, lysiphlebus testaceipes (cresson) (exotic) (hymenoptera: braconidae: aphidiinae) and aphelinus albipodus hayat and fatima (indigenous) (hymenoptera: aphelinidae) were studied at two constant temperatures (20 and 25 ± 2 oc), 70 ± 5 % r.h. and a photoperiod of 14 l: 10d. the life cycle of a. illinoisensis attained 14.7 and 7.1 days at 20 and 25 oc, respectively. the developmental period was shorter as temperature increased. developmental time from egg to adult of l. testaceipes was shorter than that of a. albipodus hayat and fatima at both 20 and 25 oc. parasitized aphids were dissected daily to determine the percentage of parasitim, number of encapsulated eggs of l. testaceipes and the number of dead larvae of a. albipodus. the percentage of parasitism of aphid by l. testaceipes was 26% and 12.5% of parasitoid eggs were encapsulated, while 52% of aphids were parasitized by a. albipodus of which 32 % was dead larvae. therefore, a. illinoisensis has a mechanism for defense against parasitoids and it should be noted that this aphid is not a suitable host for rearing either of the two tested aphid parasitoid species in the laboratory.

Prospects for Importation Biological Control of the Soybean Aphid: Anticipating Potential Costs and Benefits
We discuss the potential pros and cons of using importation biological control against the soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Homoptera: Aphididae). Importation of exotic organisms for biological control is never completely risk-free, but the potential negative impacts of not achieving biological control of invasive pests may exceed the risks associated with a biological control introduct...

Interactions of the parasitoid Lysiphlebus testaceipes (Cresson) and the greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), on greenbug-resistant 'Cargill 607E' (antibiosis), 'Cargill 797' (primarily tolerance), and -susceptible 'Golden Harvest 510B' sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, were tested using three levels of biotype I greenbug infestation. The parasitoid infestation rate was 0.5 female and 1...

Mitochondrial 16s rDNAwas sequenced fromninedifferentpopulationsofAphelinidae and 10 of aphidiinae. Sequence divergences between populations within a species are low, ranging from 0 to 0.38%. Divergences among species within the same genus range from 0 to 8.71%. Aphelinus asychisWalker has a sequence divergence from the otherAphelinus spp. of 8.71%,which is evenhigher than the divergences among...

Collections of parasitoids attacking the soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), in South Korea yielded specimens that were originally identiÞed as Binodoxys communis (Gahan) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). We report here on laboratory studies indicating that this population is actually a previously unknown species of Binodoxys. Four classes of comparisons weremade between th...

We integrated a natural enemy survey of the broader landscape into a more traditional survey for Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), parasitoids and predatory flies on soybean using A. glycines-infested soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., placed in cropped and noncropped plant systems to complement visual field observations. Across three sites and 5 yr, 18 parasitoids and predatory fl...
