Abstract We challenged Locusta migratoria (Meyen) grasshoppers with simultaneous doses of both the insecticide chlorantraniliprole and fungal pathogen, Metarhizium anisopliae . Our results showed synergistic antagonistic effects on host mortality enzyme activities. To elucidate biochemical mechanisms that underlie detoxification pathogen-immune responses in insects, we monitored activities 10 enzymes. After administration fungus, glutathione- S -transferase (GST), general esterases (ESTs)...
Soil microorganisms are greatly affected by their microenvironment. To reveal the influence of different land use patterns on composition and diversity soil bacterial fungal communities, this study analyzed microbial (bacteria fungi) community under (vegetable land, wasteland, woodland, cultivated land) based 16S rRNA, 18S high-throughput sequencing method in Taojia River Basin. Spearman analysis redundancy (RDA) were used to explore correlation between physicochemical properties...
Grasshoppers are important elements for supporting ecosystem services which make it to understand their spatial distribution characteristics reduce outbreaks, implement effective control while minimizing non-target impacts. The software package Geographical Detector (GD) was used rank the interaction and effects of 19 environmental factors on grasshopper species were quantified in four types steppes Northwestern, China. Results showed that insect mainly influenced by elevation (q = 0.44)....
This study provides a complete account of global warming potential (GWP) and greenhouse gas intensity (GHGI) in relation to long-term water management experiment Chinese double-rice cropping systems. The three strategies comprised continuous (year-round) flooding (CF), during the rice season but with drainage midseason harvest time (F-D-F), irrigation only for transplanting tillering stage (F-RF). CH4 N2O fluxes were measured static chamber method. Soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration...
Abstract We studied the role of plant primary and secondary metabolites in mediating plant-insect interactions by conducting a no-choice single-plant species field experiment to compare suitability, enzyme activities, gene expression Oedaleus asiaticus grasshoppers feeding on four host non-host plants with different chemical traits. O. growth showed positive relationship food nutrition content negative compounds content. Grasshopper amylase, chymotrypsin, lipase activities were positively...
The benefit of the entomopathogen Metarhizium anisopliae to early root development was evaluated. Two inoculating methods, conidia-suspension-drenching (T1) and conidia-coating (T2), were used when sowing peanut. results showed that taproot length lateral number in T1 significantly increased compared control (T0) days 4-10 after treatment, whereas no significant difference found between T2 T0. fungal density by fluctuated first 8 days, followed a gradual decline. ratio or T0 relative...
Abstract Entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae obtain survival benefit meanwhile promote the nutrient absorption of root as an endophyte. However, little is known concerning molecular mechanisms in process. We performed transcriptome sequencing A . hypogaea roots inoculated M and pathogenic Fusarium axysporum , respectively. There were 81323 unigenes from 132023 transcripts. Total 203 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) respond to two fungi, including specific 76 34 DEGs...
Background Metarhizium is an important class of entomopathogenic fungi in the biocontrol insects, but its virulence affected by insect immunity. To clarify mechanism Metarhizium, we compared immunological differences Locusta migratoria L. when exposed to two strains anisopliae (Ma). Results The Ma IMI330189 was significantly higher than that IBC200614 locust, and overcame hemocytes began destroying locust at 72 h after spray, while immune IBC200614. could overcome humoral immunity inhibiting...
Livestock grazing can affect insects by altering habitat quality; however, the effects of years and intensities on insect abundance trophic level during manipulative sheep are not well understood. Therefore, we investigated these in a large experiment from 2014 to 2016 eastern Eurasian steppe, China. Insect decreased as increased, with significant cumulative effect occurring years. The largest families, Acrididae Cicadellidae, were susceptible grazing, but Formicidae was tolerant. Trophic...
Lead-zinc (Pb-Zn) mine tailings pose a great risk to the natural environment and human health because of their highly toxicity. In this study, responses photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescenece antioxidative enzyme Melia azedarach Ligustrum lucidum in soil contaminated by Pb-Zn were investigated. Results showed that significantly reduced net photosynthetic rates leaf pigment content both trees, reduction was mainly caused biochemical limitation (BL). The fluorescence parameters from tailing...
Soil respiration (Rs) is overwhelmingly the sum of autotrophic (Ra, root and rhizosphere) heterotrophic (Rh, microbes soil fauna). Separating Rs into Ra Rh components a major challenge but necessary for understanding implications environmental change on C cycling sequestration. In this study, trenching method was employed to partition sources in Chinese fir plantations Southern China. CO2 efflux (FCO2) rates were measured using an infrared gas analyser system with chambers at trenched...
Metarhizium anisopliae is an entomopathogenic fungus which may enhance plant growth and resistance when acting as endophyte in host plants. However, little known about the protein interactions nor their activating mechanisms. Common fungal extracellular membrane (CFEM) proteins have been identified immune regulators that suppress or activate responses. Here, we a CFEM domain-containing protein, MaCFEM85, was mainly localized plasma membrane. Yeast two-hybrid (Y2H), glutathione-S-transferase...
Although many studies have focused on the roles of soil microbes in phosphorus (P) cycling, little is known about distribution microbial P cycling genes across depths. In this study, metagenomic sequencing was adopted to examine differences abundance and taxa associated with between organic mineral subtropical forests. The total relative inorganic solubilizing highest, that starvation response regulating second, mineralizing lowest. carbon concentration, N:P ratio, available concentration...
Trehalose is not only an important disaccharide, but also a key stress resistance factor in the development of many organisms, including plants, bacteria, fungi, and insects.To study potential function trehalose behaviour, cDNA for trehalose-6-phosphate synthase from Catantops pinguis (CpiTPS) was cloned sequenced.Results revealed that CpiTPS sequence contains open reading frame 2430 nucleotides encoding protein 809 amino acids with predicted molecular weight 91.13 kDa pI value 6.25.Northern...
We reared Oriental Migratory Locusts, Locusta migratoria manilensis (Meyen) in the laboratory from 3rd instar until adult death, at five constant temperatures (18, 21, 24, 27 and 30°C), recorded life history variables. Temperature strongly influenced growth, development behaviors. Growth rates were both positive linear functions of temperature, with low thermal thresholds for nymphal growth ( 15°C) (13°C). There was no mating 18°C oviposition 21 °C below. Rearing temperature did not...
Abstract We evaluated the pathogenicity of nine isolates entomopathogenic fungi, including six Metarhizium anisopliae, one Beauveria bassiana, and two brongniartii, against eggs various larval instars scarab-beetle species, Holotrichia oblita Anomala corpulenta, under laboratory conditions. The fungal differed in pathogenicity. Generally, were more pathogenic to A. corpulenta than H. oblita. Some prevented egg hatching caused death. Isolates M2-2 Br5-8 39 27% mortality, respectively,...
