Silicon fertilisation affects morphological and immune defences of an insect pest and enhances plant compensatory growth
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract Herbivorous insects have evolved various anti-predator defences, including morphological, behavioural, and immune which can make biocontrol of herbivorous pests challenging. Silicon (Si) accumulation in plants is a potent physical defence against mandibulate insects. However, it remains uncertain how Si affects the defences insect herbivores plant following herbivory. We grew model grass, Brachypodium distachyon , hydroponically with (+Si) or without (–Si) investigated plant-mediated effects on cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera integrating morphological (i.e. integument resistance thickness), defences. also examined compensatory growth leaf trichome production. Larval growth, consumption, were lower when feeding +Si compared to –Si plants. thickness, defensive behaviours, haemocyte density, lysozyme-like activity haemolymph unaffected by Si. Larvae fed had higher phenoloxidase (PO) total-PO activities than larvae plants, although this did not enhance melanisation response larvae. Furthermore, supplies increased compensation for herbivory constitutive production, whereas induced production only provide first evidence an herbivore. suggest that Si-supplemented could contribute their vulnerability natural enemies high PO may impose fitness costs (e.g. delayed development).

Plant Defences Against Herbivore and Insect Attack
The story of Adam and Eve links eating a forbidden fruit with death in the cycle of human existence (Genesis 3:1– 24). Indeed, to avoid poisoning, herbivores and omnivores such as humans must be cautious in choosing which plants and plant parts to eat. A prevailing hypothesis is that the nearly ubiquitous antiherbivore metabolites in plants were selected by coevolution with herbivores. Likewise...

15 صفحه اولInsect Growth Regulators for Insect Pest Control*
Insecticides with growth regulating properties (IGR) may adversely affect insects by regulating or inhibiting specific biochemical pathways or processes essential for insect growth and development. Some insects exposed to such compounds may die due to abnormal regulation of hormone-mediated cell or organ development. Other insects may die either from a prolonged exposure at the developmental st...

Certain species of Hermetia illucens, also known as the Black Soldier Fly(BSF), were found in a compost plant in Roorkee located in Northern India. Its larvae arevoracious eaters of organic waste, hence can play an ecologically-important role in solidwaste management. Morphological analysis of various stages of BSF life cycle by SEMshowed that its body along with its wings is densely covered wi...
