Farklı dalga boyuna sahip ışınların Türkistan hamamböceği, Blatta lateralis (Walker, 1868) (Blattodea: Blattidae)’in yönelimi üzerine etkisi

Bu çalışmada, farklı dalga boylarına (kırmızı, yeşil, sarı, mavi, beyaz ve karanlık) sahip ışınların Türkistan hamamböceği, Blatta lateralis (Walker,1868) (Blattodea: Blattidae)’in yönelimi üzerindeki etkisi araştırılmıştır. Çalışma, 2019 yılında Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi’nde laboratuvar koşullarında yürütülmüştür. Yönelim denemelerinde, ergin hamamböcekleri üç farklı ışık şiddetine (25, 250 ve 2500 lüks) maruz bırakılmıştır. Denemeler 6-kollu ve 2-kollu seçimli olarak yürütülmüştür. Tüm denemelerde 3 tekerrür ve her tekerrürde 100 birey kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler, ışık şiddetine bağlı olarak farklı dalga boyuna sahip ışınlara yönelim hassasiyetinin artabileceğini göstermektedir. Özellikle, altı -kollu ve iki -kollu denemede, 2500 lüks şiddetinde mavi ışık uygulandığında, hamamböceğinin yönelimi en düşük seviyede olup, sırasıyla, %0.9 ve %1.8 oranında olmuştur. Genel olarak en yüksek yönelim, tüm denemelerde karanlık (kontrol) odacığa olmuştur. Ayrıca tüm lüks değerleri altında kırmızı ışığa yönelim, yeşil, sarı, mavi ve beyaz ışığa göre daha fazla olmuştur. Bu çalışma sonucunda, mavi ışığın hamamböcekleri üzerinde kaçırıcı bir etki gösterebileceği, kırmızı ışığın ise diğer dalga boylarına göre daha çekici olabileceği tespit edilmiştir. Yapılan bu çalışmalar, hamamböceklerine karşı kullanılan kimyasalların yerini alabilecek insan sağlığına ve çevreye zararsız olan alternatif bir mücadele metodunun geliştirilmesinde faydalı olabilir.

The effect of illumination with different light wavelengths on the orientation of Turkestan cockroach, Blatta lateralis (Walker, 1868) (Blattodea: Blattidae)

In this study, the effect of illumination with different light wavelengths (red, green, yellow, blue, white and a dark control) on the orientation of the Turkestan cockroach, Blatta lateralis (Walker,1868) (Blattodea: Blattidae) was investigated. The study was conducted under laboratory conditions in 2019 at Bursa Uludağ University. In orientation trials, adult cockroaches were exposed to three different light illuminances (25, 250 and 2500 lux). The trials were conducted in six- and two-arm choice arenas. In each trial, three replicates and 100 individuals were used. The data obtained show that the sensitivity to the illumination with different wavelengths may increase depending on light intensity. In particular, in the six-arm and two-arm trial, in the experiment where blue light of 2500 lux intensity was applied, the cockroach orientation was the lowest at 0.9% and 1.8%, respectively. In general, the highest orientation was against the dark (control) chamber in all trials. In addition, under all lux values, the orientation to red light was higher than with green, yellow, blue and white light. As a result of this study, it has been determined that blue light may have a repellent effect on cockroaches, and red light may be more attractive than other wavelengths. These studies can be useful in the development of an alternative method of control to replace chemicals used against cockroaches that would be harmless to human health and the environment.
