信息化合物对西花蓟马的行为调控及其应用

Regulation and Control of Western Flower Thrips Behavior by Semiochemicals and Its Application in Pest Management

西花蓟马(Frankliniella occidentalis)是一种危险性的外来入侵害虫,其寄主范围广、繁殖速度快、抗药性强、防治难度大,在我国发生后对蔬菜、花卉等经济作物造成了严重的损害。信息化合物在昆虫与植物或昆虫与昆虫之间的化学联系中起着决定性的作用,它调控着昆虫的多种行为。本文主要综述了植物挥发性物质及昆虫信息素对西花蓟马的行为调控及其在防治中的应用研究进展。

Western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis Pergande, is a fatalness pest worldwide. It causes serious damage to vegetables and ornamental crops in China, because of its various hosts, rapid reproduction ability, high resistance to drugs and difficulty in control. Certain semiochemicals play a key role in chemical communications between insect-plant or insect-insect, and it can regulate and control various insect behaviors. This paper expounds the effect of volatile chemicals and insect pheromones on western flower thrips behavior and research progress made in their application in thrips management.
