Our earlier research had focusted on the potentials of local
Serbian populations of the parasitoid Encarsia formosa Gahan (Hymenoptera:
Aphelinidae; Coccophaginae) in control of the greenhouse
whitefl y Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood (Hemiptera:
Aleyrodidae), and the most successful parasitoid population was
one from the locality Bujanovac, while a population from Negotin
locality had the lowest potential. The present study proceeded to
investigate the biological parameters (development time, longevity,
parasitism, adult emergence and instantaneous rate of increase)
of females from the two populations and a commercial race of E.
formosa (Dutch strain). The representative local populations of E. formosa were set
up from pupae (parasitized host larvae) collected from vegetables,
ornamentals and surrounding weeds grown in tunel greenhouses in
localities without a tradition in using commercial strains of the parasitoid
for biological control of the greenhouse whitefl y. T...he two local
populations and the Dutch strain were reared on tobacco plants infested
with whitefl ies. The laboratory conditions included: t°C 26±2,
RH 60±10% and L:D=16:8, there were four replications, and the
Petri dishes had lids with holes covered with muslin to allow ventilation
and prevent condensation inside dishes. The female longevity
test was carried out by inserting newly emerged E. formosa females
in Petri dishes that contained leaves with host larvae laid upon 1%
agar medium. The Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to estimate the
longevity data and survival curves, and the log-rank test was applied
to compare survival rates. To evaluate host parasitism, wasp
females were inserted in Petri dishes with infested tobacco leaves
laid upon agar medium and left to lay eggs over the next 48 h before
they were transferred to new leaves with host larvae and kept
until the death of the last insect. The pupae were then transferred to
new and clean petri dishes to monitor adult emergence from pupa.
The parasitism and adult emergence data were used to calculate
the instantaneous rates of increase at the end of the 16th day after
the start of oviposition. The results were processed with a one-way
ANOVA and the means separated by Fischer’s LSD test.
The data showed that parasitoid females of the Bujanovac
population had the best results of longevity (10.14±0.21 days), parasitism
of the host (175.09±3.81 pupae/female), adult emergence
(146.76±4.74 adults/female) and instantaneous rate of increase
(0.332±0.002 female/day). Compared to the Negotin population and
Dutch strain females, those from Bujanovac had signifi cantly higher
statistical values of parasitism and adult emergence, which are
the most important indicators of effi cacy of a biological agent. The
results make a starting point for further evaluation of local populations
of parasitoids as potential biological agents. Additional studies
should focus on the genetic origin of local populations, their effi cacy
in practical uses and evaluation of insecticidal effects on their biological
parameters.
