Abstract

The scarab beetle, Epicometis (Tropinota) hirta (Poda) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae), is a serious pest that feeds and destroys developing and blossoming flowers of apple plants. The pest has recently been reported more frequently from apple orchards in Turkey. The control of the adults of E. hirta is challenging due to the restrictions on the application of the chemicals used against the adults during the flowering period of apple orchards in Turkey. Other control methods fail to achieve desired results in the control of the adults. Therefore, there is an increasing need for more sustainable and environmentally-friendly control methods against the adults of E. hirta. In the present study, the pathogenicity of Turkish entomopathogenic nematode (EPN) isolates was evaluated using adults of this pest under laboratory conditions, toward developing an EPN-based integrated E. hirta control plan. Virulence of local EPN isolates against E. hirta was tested in 12-well bioassay plates containing sterile soil treated with different EPN concentrations (0, 190 and 380 IJs adult-1) and then incubated at 25 or 30 oC. All the EPNs isolates caused high mortality ranging from 45 to 100% at 25 oC, or 60 to 100% at 30oC, respectively. The local Steinernema carpocapsae (Weiser) (Nematoda: Rhabditida) isolate E76-S from Turkey was the most efficient, achieving the maximum mortality rate (100%) at both temperatures. The evidence of this study gave promising results for the control of the adults of E. hirta using local EPN isolates but further studies should be carried out in field conditions to determine the field performance of EPNs.

Yerel Entomopatojen Nematod İzolatlarının, Bakla Zınnı, Epicometis hirta (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) Erginlerini Kontrol Etme Potansiyeli

Abstract

Bakla Zınnı, Epicometis (Tropinota) hirta (Poda) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae), elma ağaçlarının tomurcuk ve açan çiçeklerinde beslenen ve ciddi tahribatlara neden olan önemli bir zararlıdır ve son zamanlarda Türkiye'deki elma bahçelerindeki artan bir sıklıkta bildirilmektedir. Türkiye'deki elma bahçelerinin çiçeklenme döneminde bu zararlıya karşı kullanılan kimyasalların uygulanmasına ilişkin kısıtlamalar nedeniyle E. hirta erginlerinin kontrolü oldukça zordur. Bu zararlıya karşı diğer mücadele yöntemleri kullanarak, E. hirta erginlerinin kontrolünde istenen sonuçları elde edilememektedir. Bu nedenle, E. hirta'nın erginlerine karşı daha sürdürülebilir ve çevre dostu kontrol yöntemlerine ihtiyaç artmaktadır. Bu çalışmada entomopatojen nematodların da içerisinde yer aldığı entegre bir mücadele programı oluşturulmasına yönelik, yerel entomopatojen nematod (EPN) izolatlarının E. hirta erginleri üzerindeki patojenisitesi laboratuvar koşulları altında değerlendirilmiştir. Yerel EPN izolatlarının E. hirta erginleri üzerindeki virülensi, farklı EPN konsantrasyonlarda (0, 190 ve 380 IJ ergin-1) ve sıcaklıkta (25 veya 30 °C’de) içerisinde steril toprak bulunan (12) well-platelerde test edilmiştir. Test edilen EPN izolatları, 25° C'de %45-100 ve 30°C'de %60-100 arasında değişen ölümlere neden olmuştur. Steinernema carpocapsae (Weiser) (Nematoda: Rhabditida) E76-S izolatı her iki sıcaklıkta da maksimum ölüm oranı (%100) meydana getirerek en etkili izolat olmuştur. Bu çalışmanın sonuçları, yerel EPN izolatları kullanarak E. hirta erginlerinin kontrolü için umut verici sonuçlar vermiştir, ancak EPN'lerin arazi koşullarındaki etkinliğini belirlemek için arazi koşullarında çalışmalar yapılmasına ihtiyaç vardır.
