阿里食虱跳小蜂生物学特性及其应用研究进展

Advances in research on the biological characteristics and use of Diaphorencyrtus aligarhensis as a biological control for Diaphorina citri

柑橘木虱Diaphorina citri Kuwayama是传播柑橘黄龙病病菌的重要媒介昆虫,对我国柑橘产业的健康发展造成了严重的威胁。阿里食虱跳小蜂Diaphorencyrtus aligarhensis(Shaffe,Alam and Agarwal)是柑橘木虱的一种优良内寄生蜂,在我国乃至世界多个国家均有分布,发挥着重要的生防作用。本文综述了阿里食虱跳小蜂分类地位、形态特征、地理分布、生长发育、生殖能力、寿命、寄生行为等生物学特性,以及人工繁育技术的研究与应用的最新研究进展,同时分析了目前其应用方面存在的问题,旨在为我国今后利用阿里食虱跳小蜂科学、高效和可持续防控柑橘木虱提供参考,不断推动我国柑橘产业健康、稳定和可持续发展。

Diaphorina citri Kuwayama is an important insect vector of the pathogen that causes citrus greening disease or Huanglongbing(HLB),a disease that poses an extremely grave threat to the world’s citrus industry,including China’s.Diaphorencyrtus aligarhensis(Shaffe,Alam and Agarwal)is an endoparasitoid of D.citri that is found in China and other countries,and which performs an important role in the biological control of D.citri.This paper reviews the latest advances in research on D.aligarhensis,including its taxonomic status,morphological characteristics,distribution,growth and development,reproductive capacity,longevity,parasitic behavior,rearing technology and application as a biological control agent.We also analyze current problems and trends in the application of D.aligarhensis.This review provides an important reference for the biological control of D.citri,and is expected to contribute to the healthy,stable and sustainable,development of China’citrus industry.
