We exogenously applied methyl jasmonate （MeJA） and salicylic acid （SA） on wheat seedlings and examined biochemical responses in wheat and effects on the grain aphid, Sitobion avenae （Fab.）. Application of MeJA significantly increased levels of wheat＇s polyphenol oxidase, peroxidase and proteinase inhibitor 1, 2 and 6 days after treatment. In twochoice tests, adult aphids preferred control wheat leaves to MeJA or SA treated leaves. Electrical penetration graph （EPG） recordings of aphid probing behavior revealed that on MeJAtreated plants, the duration of aphid＇s first probe was significantly shorter and number of probes was significantly higher than those on control plants. Also total duration of probing on MeJAtreated plants was significantly shorter than on control plants. Total duration of salivation period on SAtreated plants was significantly longer, while mean phloem ingestion period was significantly shorter than on control plants. However, no significant difference in total duration of phloem sap ingestion period was observed among treatments. The EPG data suggest that MeJAdependent resistance factors might be due to feeding deterrents in mesophyll, whereas the SAmediated resistance may be phloembased. We did not observe any significant difference of MeJA and SA application on aphid development, daily fecundity, intrinsic growth rate and population growth. The results indicate that both MeJA and SAinduced defenses in wheat deterred S. avenae colonization processes and feeding behavior, but had no significant effects on its performance.展开更多

Ecological, agronomic and biological controls are the main preventivemeasures used in Guizhou Province. This paper summarizes the ‘green’preventive technologies being applied in Guizhou tea plantations, including theuse of plant defense inducers to regulate tea plant responses to pathogens,natural enemies to control pest species causing damage to shoots andTrifolium repens to control the main weed species. In addition, it summarizesthe integrated ‘green’ preventive technologies being used in Guizhou andprovides a foundation for the ecological maintenance of tea plantations.展开更多
