概括
评估危植物的非目标攻击风险对于生物控制安全至关重要. 植物线索可以非破坏性地预测生物控制剂,如虫Mogulones borraginis,是否会避免受威胁和危物种.
科学领域:
- 生态学和进化生物学.
- 保护生物学 保护生物学
- 昆虫学 昆虫学是一门学科.
背景情况:
- 生物控制剂的发布前环境安全评估对于保护联邦列出的受威胁和危 (T&E) 植物物种至关重要.
- 评估非目标攻击 (NTA) 风险往往受困于获得植物传播剂的困难,以及为测试同步植物和物质代体的困难.
- 要克服这些后勤挑战,需要使用非破坏性的方法来评估NTA风险.
研究的目的:
- 评估植物嗅觉和视觉线索的使用,以非破坏性地评估T&E植物物种对候选生物控制剂的吸引力.
- 为了确定种子食虫Mogulones borraginis是否是Cynoglossum officinale的生物控制候选物,对亲属T&E物种构成NTA风险.
- 分析挥发性有机化合物 (VOC),以了解宿主植物的歧视.
主要方法:
- 从四种T&E植物物种和一种与入侵性C. officinale.相似的罕见植物物种的开花枝收集了嗅觉和视觉线索.
- 使用修改的y管装置进行双选择生物测试,以测量虫对植物线索的行为反应 (偏好和搜索时间).
- 在61种挥发性有机化合物 (VOC) 上使用主要成分分析 (PCA) 来区分植物物种.
主要成果:
- 在嗅觉和视觉提示生物测试中,雌性Mogulones borraginis虫显著更喜欢入侵的Cynoglossum officinale,而不是所有测试的T&E植物物种.
- 与对照组相比,T&E植物物种的综合嗅觉和视觉线索驱逐了虫,这表明攻击的可能性很低.
- 通过PCA有效地根据VOC档案分离植物物种,支持行为生物试验的结果.
结论:
- 植物线索可以有效地用于对T&E物种的生物控制剂的非破坏性环境安全测试.
- 莫古洛内斯博拉吉尼斯对Cynoglossum officinale表现出强烈的宿主特异性,不太可能攻击同属的T&E植物物种.
- 了解前照明宿主选择行为和VOC有助于预测和确保杂草生物控制剂的安全性.

Threats to Biodiversity
There have been five major extinction events throughout geological history, resulting in the elimination of biodiversity, followed by a rebound of species that adapted to the new conditions. In the current geological epoch, the Holocene, there is a sixth extinction event in progress. This mass extinction has been attributed to human activities and is thus provisionally called the Anthropocene. In 2019 the human population reached 7.7 billion people and is projected to comprise 10 billion by...
Biological Methods for Microbial Control
Biological agents offer an effective means of controlling microbial growth by leveraging natural processes like predation, competition, and the secretion of antimicrobial substances.Predatory bacteria such as Bdellovibrio species target and kill pathogens like Salmonella and E. coli. They are widely used in poultry farms to control infections. Myxococcus species help combat plant-pathogenic fungi. These naturally occurring predators serve as eco-friendly alternatives to chemical pesticides and...
