Besinin Achroia grisella’nın Larval Ağırlığına ve Üzerinde Üretilen Parazitoid Pimpla turionellae’nın Erginleşmesine Etkileri

A. grisella biri doğal besini olan petek, diğeri ise yarı sentetik besin olmak üzere iki ayrı besin kullanılarak yetiştirilmiştir. Son evre larvalar tartılarak, besinlerin larval ağırlığa etkisi tespit edilmiştir. Bu larvalardan elde edilen puplar üzerinde üretilen parazitoid P. turionellae ‘nın erginleşme yüzdesi ve erginlerin eşey oranları araştırılmıştır. Larval ağırlığın, petek ile beslenen grupta yarı sentetik besin ile beslenen gruba göre daha yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. P. turionellae ‘nın erginleşme yüzdesi her iki grupta benzer bulunurken, dişi parazitoid oluşma oranı petek ile beslenen grupta daha yüksek bulunmuştur.

Effects of Diet on Larval Weight of Achroia grisella and Adult Emergence of Parasitoid Pimpla turionellae Reared on It

A. grisella was reared on two different diet, that one of them was beewax and the other was semi-synthetic diet. Last instar larvae were weighed to determine the effects of diets. Adult emergence and sex ratio of parasitoid P. turionellae reared on pupae of these larvae were investigated. Larval weight of the group reared on beewax was found higher than the semi-synthetic diet group. While adult emergence ratio of P. turionellae were found similar in each diet group, female parasitoid ratio of the group reared on beewax was found higher than the other group.
