Ana yaşının Galleria mellonella (L., 1758) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) oğul döllerinin performansına etkisi

Öz

Ana yaşı, bir böceğin yumurtayı bıraktığı andaki yaşıdır ve oğul dölün özelliklerini etkileyen önemli bir faktördür. Bu çalışma ana yaşının Galleria mellonella'nın (L., 1758) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) ergin öncesi gelişim süresi, larva gelişim süresi, pupa gelişim süresi, pupa ağırlık ve ergin ömür uzunluğu üzerindeki etkisini belirledi. Bu çalışma 2018 yılında Sinop Üniversitesi, Fen Bilgisi Eğitimi, Biyoloji Laboratuvarı’nda yapıldı. Böcekler dört gruba ayrıldı (1, 5, 10, 15 gün yaşlı ve 28 ± 2 °C, %65 ± 5 bağıl nem ve devamlı karanlık) ve laboratuvar şartları altında tutuldu. Larva gelişim süresi, toplam ergin öncesi gelişim süresi ve ömür uzunluğu yaşla azalırken pupa gelişim süresi arttı. Genç anaların oğul döllerinin gelişim süresi daha uzun sürmesine rağmen, ergin ömür uzunluğu arttı. Genç analardan elde edilen oğul döller ömür uzunluğu bakımından avantajlıyken, yaşlı analardan elde edilen oğul döller gelişim süresi bakımından avantajlı olarak saptanmıştır.

Impact of maternal age on performance of the progeny in Galleria mellonella (L., 1758) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)

Abstract

Maternal age is the age of an insect at the time of depositing an egg and is an important factor impacting on the properties of the progeny. This study determined the influence of maternal age on the preadult total development time, larval development time, pupal development time, pupal weight and adult longevity of Galleria mellonella (L., 1758) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae). This study was conducted in 2018 in the Biology Laboratory of Science Teaching, Sinop University. The insects were grouped into four groups (1, 5, 10 and 15 d-old) and they were kept under laboratory conditions (28 ± 2°C and 65 ± 5% RH and continuous darkness). Larval development time, total preadult development time and longevity decreased with maternal age whereas pupal development time increased. Although the development time of the progeny of younger females lasted longer, total longevity increased. Although, the progeny of younger females had increased longevity, progeny of older females was advantaged in terms of development time.
