Field attraction of Cerambyx welensii to fermentation odors and host monoterpenes     

Israel Sánchez-Osorio  Gloria López-Pantoja  Antonia M. Paramio  José L. Lencina  Diego Gallego  Luis Domínguez 《Journal of pest science》2016,89(1):59-68

Cerambyx welensii Küster is one of the greatest threats to Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain. Efficient control methods for this species are currently being tested, and the use of traps baited with food-related products for their monitoring and control has been proposed. Cerambyx welensii adults prefer to colonize old or decayed trees, in which cortical exudates frequently release fermentation odors. Fermentation-related compounds, such as ethanol, have been cited as attractants to various hardwood woodborers (as Cerambyx cerdo L.), used either alone or sometimes in combination with other host odors. In this work, we conducted field experiments to ascertain whether chemical blends mimicking fermentation odors were attractive for C. welensii. To this end, we used three types of traps (multiple funnel, cross-vane and single-funnel) baited with six synthetic blends including one or more fermentation-related chemicals (ethanol, ethyl acetate, 3-methyl-1-butanol, acetaldehyde, 2-methyl-1-propanol and 2-methyl-1-butanol), various food-related products (beer, melon and red wine mixed with peach juice) and host monoterpenes (α-pinene, β-pinene, limonene, α-phellandrene and camphene). At high release rates (5–11 g/day), various synthetic blends proved attractive irrespective of trap type. Our results contribute to understand the impact of volatile organic compounds in host selection by woodborers infesting deciduous trees. The results hold promise for optimizing trapping strategies to control C. welensii within an integrated pest management framework.  相似文献   

Combining sub-lethal heating and on-farm wastes: effects on <Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">Fusarium oxysporum</Emphasis> f.sp. <Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">cumini</Emphasis> causing wilt of cumin     

Sunil Israel  Ritu Mawar  Satish Lodha 《Phytoparasitica》2011,39(1):73-82

In a 2-year field study, the effects of four heating regimes established by varying temperature or duration of heating on efficiency of on-farm wastes as soil amendments in controlling Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cumini (Foc) causing wilt on cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.), were ascertained. Significant improvement in reduction of Foc propagules was achieved with the increase in duration and amount of heat. In 2000, mild heating under shade (heat level 4), 31.8–65.9% reduction in Foc propagules was estimated in all the amendments at 0–30 cm soil depth, which improved by 75.7–86.5% in the treatment where Foc-infested soil brought from the laboratory was exposed to direct heat (heat level 3) and amendments and irrigation were applied. Foc propagules were reduced by 76.6–88.3% when infested soil was exposed continuously to dry heat for 56 days (heat level 2), improving efficiency of amendments by 0.9–13.5% compared with heat level 3. After 56 days of exposure to dry heat, elevating the temperature by mulching amended soil with a transparent polyethylene film (50 μm thick) for 20 days (heat level 1) augmented reduction by 80.2–95.5%. In the second season, combining 0.04% of onion, Verbisina encelioides or mustard oil-cake with mustard residues (0.18%) improved the reduction in Foc propagules at all heat levels even at the lower soil depth. Maximum reduction (94.9–100%) in Foc propagules at heat levels 1 to 3 was achieved when residues of Verbisina were supplemented with those of mustard. These results suggest a new approach to improve the control of Foc by combining prolonged heating with on-farm wastes such as Verbisina residues and one summer irrigation.  相似文献

Mass Production of Juveniles of the Fat Snook Centropomus parallelus in Brazil     

Luis  Alvarez-Lajonchegre  Vinicius R.  Cerqueira  Israel D.  Silva  Jaqueline  Araujo Marcosdos  Reis 《Journal of the World Aquaculture Society》2002,33(4):506-516

A pilot‐scale trial to rear fat snook Centropomus parallelus through larval, weaning and nursery phases was conducted in Florianópolis, Brazil. Eggs (96% fertilization) from captive broodstock, induced to spawn using 50 μg/kg LHRHa were stocked in two 4,000‐L cylindrical fiberglass tanks at a mean density of 19.2 eggs/L. Nannochloropsis oculata was stocked with the eggs and maintained at a mean density of 0.5–1.0 ± 10⁶ cells/mL up to 31 dph (31 dph). Hatching averaged 90%. Larvae were fed rotifers Brachionus rotundiformis enriched with an oil emulsion from 3 dph to 36 dph (30–40 rotifers/mL) and Artermia meta‐nauplii enriched with Selco from 22 dph to 60 dph (mean 2.9 meta‐nauplii/mL). Weaning began at 45 dph with an artificial dry diet NRG (50% protein), supplied together with concentrated and enriched Artemia meta‐nauplii. No critical period of mortality was observed during larval rearing. During the 43 days of weaning and nursery, less than 1% mortality was recorded. Food conversion rate during nursery was 1.17, with a change in the coefficient of variation of mean total length of 1.3%. Specific total growth rate in weight was 13.0 %/d and mean growth in total length and total weight were 0.65 mm/d and 24.0 mg/d over the whole rearing trial respectively. Mean total length and total weight of juveniles were 57.6 ± 0.1 mm and 2.11 ± 0.12 g, respectively, and the length‐weight relationship was W = 8.29931 ± 10–⁵ TL^3.049607 (r= 0.9986). on 88 dph when the trial was terminated. The condition factor on 88 dph was 1.104. On 88 dph a total of 35,000 juveniles were harvested, overall survival was 25.5% with mean final density of 4.4 fishn and biomass of 6.9 kg/m³. The present trial demonstrated the feasibility of mass production of fat snook. Possible improvements necessary for commercial cultivation of fat snook C. parallelus are discussed.  相似文献   

Preincubation of bovine blood neutrophils with bovine herpesvirus-1 does not impair neutrophil interaction with Pasteurella haemolytica A1 in vitro   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

E J Noel  B A Israel  G J Letchworth  C J Czuprynski 《Veterinary immunology and immunopathology》1988,19(3-4):273-284

In this study we examined the direct effects of bovine herpesvirus-1 on the interaction of bovine blood neutrophils with Pasteurella haemolytica A1. Preincubation of neutrophils for approximately 2 h in vitro with BHV-1 at a multiplicity of infection of 5:1 had no effect on neutrophil random migration and directed migration to zymosan-activated bovine serum. Neutrophils also were unimpaired in their ability to ingest and kill P. haemolytica A1. Preincubation of neutrophils with BHV-1 did not elicit an oxidative burst, as measured by luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence, nor did it alter neutrophil chemiluminescence in response to opsonized P. haemolytica A1. Prolonged preincubation with BHV-1 for 18-24 h similarly did not affect neutrophil chemiluminescence in response to opsonized P. haemolytica A1. The susceptibility of neutrophils to the lethal effects of crude P. haemolytica cytotoxin also was unaltered by preincubation with BHV-1. We observed no evidence of BHV-1 replication in bovine neutrophils as determined by indirect immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. Previous reports have indicated that active BHV-1 infection alters certain neutrophil functions and results in hypersusceptibility to pulmonary pasteurellosis. Our results suggest that these effects are unlikely to be mediated directly by BHV-1, but instead may reflect the action of endogenous mediators that are released during active BHV-1 infection.  相似文献   

Soil chemical and microbiological properties in hay production systems: residual effects of contrasting N fertilization of swine lagoon effluent versus ammonium nitrate     

Kannan Iyyemperumal  James GreenJr.  Daniel W. Israel  Noah N. Ranells  Wei Shi 《Biology and Fertility of Soils》2008,44(3):425-434

This study characterized soil chemical and microbiological properties in hay production systems that received from 0 to 600 kg plant-available N (PAN) ha⁻¹ year⁻¹ from either swine lagoon effluent (SLE) or ammonium nitrate (AN) from 1999 to 2001. The forage systems contained plots planted with bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.) or endophyte-free tall fescue (Festuca arundinaceae Schreb.). In March 2004, the plots were sampled for measurements of a suite of soil chemical and microbiological properties. Nitrogen fertilization rates were significantly correlated with soil pH and K₂SO₄-extractable soil C but not with total soil C, soil C/N ratio, electrical conductivity, or Mehlich-3-extractable nutrients. Soil supplied with SLE had significantly lower Mehlich-3-extractable nutrients than the soil supplied with AN. Two indicators of soil N-supplying capacity (potentially mineralizable N and amino sugar N) varied with plant species and the type of N fertilizer. However, they generally peaked at an application rate of 200 or 400 kg PAN ha⁻¹ year⁻¹. Soil microbial biomass C also peaked at an application rate of 200 or 400 kg PAN ha⁻¹ year⁻¹. Nitrification potential was significantly higher in soil supplied with AN than in the unfertilized control but was similar between SLE-fertilized and unfertilized soils. Our results indicated that an application rate as high as 600 kg PAN ha⁻¹ year⁻¹ did not benefit soil microbial biomass, microbial activity, and N transformation processes in these forage systems.  相似文献

Understanding root,tuber, and banana seed systems and coordination breakdown: a multi-stakeholder framework     

Jeffery W. Bentley  Jorge Andrade-Piedra  Paul Demo  Beloved Dzomeku  Kim Jacobsen  Enoch Kikulwe 《Journal of Crop Improvement》2018,32(5):599-621

Vegetatively propagated crop (VPC) seed tends to remain true to varietal type but is bulky, often carries disease, and is slow to produce. So VPC seed needs to be handled differently than that of other crops, e.g., it tends to be sourced locally, often must be fresh, and it is less often sold on the market. Hence, a framework was adapted to describe and support interventions in such seed systems. The framework was used with 13 case studies to understand VPC seed systems for roots, tubers, and bananas, including differing roles and sometimes conflicting goals of stakeholders, and to identify potential coordination breakdowns when actors fail to develop a shared understanding and vision. In this article, we review those case studies. The framework is a critical tool to (a) document VPC seed systems and build evidence; (b) diagnose and treat coordination breakdown and (c) guide decision-makers and donors on the design of more sustainable seed system interventions for VPCs. The framework can be used to analyze past interventions and will be useful for planning future VPC seed programs.  相似文献   

Seasonal water relations in four co-existing native shrub species from Northeastern Mexico     

Humberto González-Rodríguez  Jorge Isaac Sarquís-Ramírez  Israel Cantú-Silva  Roque Gonzalo Ramírez-Lozano  Juan Manuel López-Hernández 《Arid Land Research and Management》2016,30(4):375-388

Seasonal xylem water potentials (Ψ, MPa) and their relationship to soil water content and evaporative demand components were studied in the shrub species Acacia amentacea, Celtis ehrenbergiana, Forestiera angustifolia, and Parkinsonia texana var. macra. Predawn (Ψpd) and midday (Ψmd) water potentials were estimated at 15 days intervals, between January 15 and October 30, 2009 using a Scholander pressure bomb at 06:00 h (predawn) and 14:00 h (midday), respectively. During the humid period, Ψpd ranged from ?0.30 MPa (C. ehrenbergiana), to ?0.90 MPa (P. texana). In contrast, over the driest period, Ψpd varied between ?2.18 (P. texana) and ?3.94 MPa (F. angustifolia). At midday, P. texana and F. angustifolia showed the highest (?1.14 MPa) and lowest (?3.38 MPa) Ψ values, respectively. Average soil water content accounted for 35 to 70% of the variation in predawn Ψ. Furthermore, both Ψ reflected the environmental conditions, as indicated by typical correlations observed. The studied shrub species exhibited what seem to be different strategies to avoid damage caused by drought. Thus, P. texana behaved rather as an isohydric plant able to deal well with severe, but short periods of drought. Under exceptionally dry environmental conditions, Ψpd undercut Ψmd values. Similar observations have been made by researchers studying plants in dry ecosystems. All studied native species are recommended for reforestation of the Tamaulipan shrublands, although C. ehrenbergiana and F. angustifolia seem to have limited tolerances for extreme water stress.  相似文献
