Preference study of Trichogramma pintoi (Voegele) (Hymenoptera:Trichogrammatidae) on host eggs of different ages and species
Abstract
Eggs of Ephestia kuehniella (Zeller), Cadra cautella (Walker) and Plodia interpunctella (Hübner) are host of parasitoid Trichogramma pintoi (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) which is used in biological control of pests. In this study, the host species and egg age preferences were determined in the parasitization performance of the adult female of T. pinto. For host species and egg age preference, 1, 2, 3 and 4 days old eggs from three different hosts were given to the parasitoid which were kept in controlled conditions until they hatched and then counted. Adult T. pintoi species were also stored at 4±1 °C up to 4 days. It was determined that the fecundity and life span of female parasitoids decreased as the storage period increased. T. pintoi was found to prefer up to 1 day eggs old in all three hosts. Parasitoid preferred 2, 3, and 4 days old eggs of all host species at the similar rates. Eggs of E. kuehniella and C. cautella were determined as the most preferred host, followed by eggs of P. interpunctella. Adult T. pintoi females stored for 1 day were found as the most surviving female individuals. The highest parasitization rate was also determined in females stored for 1 day. Host species, egg age preference and storage time of adult parasitoid are thought to be very important in mass production and release studies of T. pintoi.

Trichogramma pintoi (Voegele) (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae)’nin farklı yaşlardaki ve türlerdeki konukçu yumurtalarını tercih çalışması
Abstract
Ephestia kuehniella (Zeller), Cadra cautella (Walker) ve Plodia interpunctella (Hübner) yumurtaları biyolojik mücadelede kullanılan parasitoid Trichogramma pinto (Voegele)’nin konukçularındandır. Bu çalışmada T. pinto’nun ergin dişisinin parazitleme performanslarında konukçı tür ve yumurta yaşı tercihleri belirlenmiştir. Konukçu türü ve yumurta yaş tercihi çalışmalarında, her konukçu türü için, 1, 2, 3 ve 4 yaşındaki yumurtalar dişi parazitoid erginlerine verildikten sonra kontrollü koşullarda parazitoitlerin tümü çıkıncaya kadar bekletilmiş ve sayımları yapılmıştır. Ergin T. pintoi türleri ayrıca 4 gün süre boyunca 4±1 °C’de depolanmıştır. Depolama süresi uzadıkça dişi parazitoitlerin doğurganlığı ve yaşam sürelerinin azaldığı belirlenmiştir. T. pintoi’nin her üç konukçuda da en fazla 1 yaşındaki yumurtaları tercih ettiği belirlenmiş olup, her üç konukçuda da 2, 3 ve 4 yaşındaki yumurtaları istatiksel olarak aynı oranda tercih ettiği görülmüştür. Konukçu tercihlerine bakıldığında ise, istatiksel olarak E. kuehniella ve C. cautella yumurtalarını en fazla tercih etmiş, bunu P. interpunctella izlemiştir. Ergin T. pintoi dişilerinin deplanması sonucu en fazla yaşayan dişiler 1 gün süre ile depo edilenlerde belirlenmiştir. En fazla parazitlenmenin yine 1 gün süre ile depo edilen dişilerde olduğu belirlenmiştir. Konukçu türü, yumurta yaşı tercihi ve ergin parazitoidlerin depolanma süresinin T. pintoi’nin kitle üretimi ve salımı çalışmalarında oldukça önemli olduğu düşünülmektedir.
