    Notes: Abstract The antifeedant activity of azadirachtin and 56 azadirachtin analogues, including 22,23-dihydroazalirachtin, against larvae ofSpodoptera littoralis was investigated using behavioural and electrophysiological bioassays. None of the analogues was as active as azadirachtin, although many showed significant antifeedant activity at high concentrations. The majority of the analogues stimulated a dose-dependent response from a neurone in the medial styloconic maxillary sensilla which correlated with the behavioural activity. Methylation of the hydroxy substitutions on the azadirachtin molecule usually resulted in a decrease in antifeedant activity, as did the addition of bulky groups to the dihydrofuran ring.

    Notes: Abstract In Brassica crops differences in susceptibility to root fly attack can be largely attributed to antixenotic resistance. Plants of four genotypes (two swedes and two kales) with widely differing resistance in field trials, were compared in laboratory choice assays for their susceptibility to oviposition by the root flies Delia radicum (L.) and D. floralis (Fallen) (Diptera, Anthomyiidae). For both species the preference among the genotypes corresponded to the susceptibility of the genotypes in the field. The preference ranking in response to surrogate leaves treated with methanolic surface extracts of the four genotypes was identical to the preference among potted plants, demonstrating that chemical factors on the leaf surface mediate host preference for oviposition in these species. For both species of fly, glucosinolates are major oviposition stimulants and for D. radicum an additional, nonglucosinolate oviposition stimulant, presently called CIF, is known. We describe a procedure for chromatographic separation of glucosinolates from CIF in leaf surface extracts. In oviposition-choice assays with D. radicum, the CIF-fractions of the two swede genotypes applied to surrogate leaves received a 1.8 and 4.6 times higher proportion of eggs than the respective glucosinolate-fractions, confirming the major importance of CIF as an oviposition stimulant. The genotype of swede that was preferred by both fly species in tests with plants and methanolic leaf surface extracts, also stimulated oviposition more in tests with the glucosinolate-fractions or the CIF-fractions derived from the surface extracts, respectively. Thus, glucosinolates and CIF together account for the observed preference among the genotypes and may also be responsible for their susceptibility under field conditions. In the two kale genotypes the preference for plants or surface extracts differed from the preference among the corresponding glucosinolate- and CIF-fractions, indicating that additional, as yet unknown chemical factors may also be involved. For both groups of stimulants tarsal chemoreceptors allow electrophysiological monitoring of glucosinolate- and CIF-activity in fractionated surface extracts. For D. radicum the chemosensory activity of both glucosinolate- and CIF-fractions corresponded to the respective behavioural activity in the oviposition preference tests, suggesting that preference for oviposition among genotypes can be predicted from the electrophysiological activity of their fractions. The chemosensory response of D. floralis, in particular to the CIF-fractions, was less pronounced than the response of D. radicum, indicating interspecific differences in the perception of the major oviposition stimulants. We discuss the potential application of electrophysiological techniques in support of other screening methods used in breeding for root fly resistance in Brassica crops.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of insect age on the neural responsiveness of gustatory sensilla was investigated. Electrophysiological recordings were obtained from type A and type D sensilla on the pro- and meso-thoracic tarsi, and from sensilla on the labellum of the turnip root fly,Delia floralis (Fallen) in response to potassium chloride, sucrose and sinigrin. The age of the fly did have an effect on the numbers of sensilla responding to the test stimuli and on the magnitude of the response, but there was no consistent pattern in these effects among sensilla. The labellar sensilla were more responsive to sucrose than the tarsal sensilla and the proportion of flies whose labellar sensilla responded to sucrose was initially low, but increased after day 2 of adult life. In contrast, the number of flies whose tarsal sensilla responded to stimulation with sucrose was initially high and decreased as the flies aged. There was a similar decline in the proportion of tarsal sensilla responding to potassium chloride. Neither the proportion of flies whose tarsal sensilla responded to sinigrin nor the magnitude of the response was influenced by the age of the fly. These finding are discussed in relation to the feeding and host selection behaviour of the fly.

    Behavioural and chemosensory responses of the turnip root fly (Delia floralis) to glucosinolates (1994)

    Notes: Abstract This study investigates the behavioural and neural mechanisms involved in the oviposition behaviour of the turnip root fly,Delia floralis (Fallen). Behavioural studies showed that glucosinolates modulated the oviposition behaviour of the flies on artificial leaves as well as the number of eggs laid in the soil at the base of these leaves. Electrophysiological responses to glucosinolates were obtained from type A and type D sensilla on the prothoracic and mesothoracic tarsi, as well as from the long contact sensilla on the labellum. The neural responses from these sensilla were positively correlated with the oviposition behaviour of the flies and with the number of eggs laid. Of the eleven glucosinolates tested in the behavioural and electrophysiological tests, the flies were most responsive to glucobrassicanapin, gluconapin and glucobrassicin. The type D tarsal sensilla were more responsive to the glucosinolates than either the type A tarsal sensilla or the labellar sensilla. The structure-activity investigations showed that slight modifications to the chemical composition of the glucosinolates resulted in changes in neural activity.

    Daily changes in the responsiveness of taste receptors correlate with feeding behaviour in larvae of Spodoptera littoralis (1991)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Larvae of Spodoptera littoralis were monitored through the final larval stadium (6 days) for weight gain, amount eaten in bioassays and responsiveness of gustatory receptors to stimulation with sodium chloride and four concentrations of sucrose. The age of larvae within the stadium, time of day (am or pm) and interactions between these factors influenced the electrophysiological response to 0.05 M sucrose. Overall, the responsiveness of taste receptors increased in the first half of the stadium, then declined. Neural input correlated with weight gain on days 1 to 4, and with amount eaten in bioassays on days 1 to 5. This correlation between neural input and feeding behaviour indicates that the observed modulation in neural sensitivity has a causal relationship with feeding behaviour. The ways in which the modulation might occur are discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'activité phagodissuadante de l'azadirachtine, de ses dérivés et des limonoïdes voisins sur 4 espèces de lépidoptères: Spodoptera littoralis, S. frugiperda, Heliothis virescens et H. armigera a été évaluée par des expériences avec et sans choix. Les expériences de choix ont montré que le comportement alimentaire de S. littoralis était modifié par plus de substances que celui de S. frugiperda ou H. virescens. Celui de H. armigera était le moins modifié. Les 2 substances les plus puissantes parmi les 40 examinées, ont été l'azadirachtine et le dihydroazadirachtine. Ces résultats montrent que l'hydrogénation de la double liaison C-22,23 ne réduit pas l'activité phagodissuadante et que la nature des substitutions en C-1, C-3 et C-11 sont importantes. Les molécules avec des substitutions volumineuses en C-22 ou C-23 sont généralement des phagodissuadants aussi inefficaces que ceux ayant perdu un époxide. Les substances notées comme phagodissuadants actifs dans les expériences de choix ne sont pas toujours aussi actives en absence de choix. La valeur des tests dans l'évaluation du mode d'action des substances est discuté.
    Notes: Abstract The antifeedant activity of azadirachtin, azadirachtin-derivatives and related limonoids was assessed in choice and no-choice bioassays against four species of Lepidoptera: Spodoptera littoralis, Spodoptera frugiperda, Heliothis virescens and Heliothis armigera. The choice bioassay showed that the feeding behaviour of S. littoralis was affected by more of the compounds than that of either S. frugiperda or H. virescens. H. armigera was the least affected. Azadirachtin and dihydroazadirachtin were the most potent of the 40 compounds tested. The results showed that hydrogenation of the C-22,23 double bond did not decrease antifeedant activity and the nature of the substitutes at C-1, C-3 and C-11 were important. Molecules with bulky substitutes at either C-22 or C-23 were usually ineffective antifeedants as were compounds lacking an epoxide. Compounds recorded as active antifeedants in the choice bioassay were not always as active in the no-choice test. The value of the bioassays in assessing the mode of action of the compounds is discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Spodoptera littoralis, S. frugiperda et Heliothis virescens ont été exposés à l'azadirachtine et 23 autres substances voisines dans 3 expériences: canulation orale, injection d'haemolymphe et application topique.

De toutes façons, les substances les plus actives ont été l'azadirachtine, la 22,23-dihydroazadirachtine et la 1-détigloyl-22,23-dihydroazadirachtine. La nature des substitutions en C-1 et C-3 de l'anneau décaline modifie la puissance des substances, tout comme les substitutions en C-22,23.

    Notes: Abstract Spodoptera littoralis, Spodoptera frugiperda and Heliothis virescens were exposed to azadirachtin and 23 other related compounds in three bioassays: oral cannulation, haemolymph injection and topical application. Spodoptera littoralis was susceptible to a larger proportion of the compounds than either of the other species. Overall, azadirachtin, 22,23-dihydroazadirachtin and 1-detigloyl-22,23-dihydroazadirachtin were the most active compounds. The nature of the substitutes at C-1 and C-3 of the decalin ring affects the potency of the compounds, as does the addition of substitutes to C-22,23. Generally, larvae were less sensitive to compounds when they were topically applied than when they were cannulated into the gut or injected into the haemolymph.

    Notes: Abstract Nimbin and salannin, major triterpenoids accompanying azadirachtin in extracts of neem (Azadirachta indica) seeds, were photooxidized by UV light in the presence of oxygen to more polar, unstable intermediates that rearranged on silica gel to two final products in which the furan ring had been oxidized to isomeric hydroxybutenolides. The isomeric hydroxybutenolides were also readily formed when a crude extract of triterpenoids from neem seeds was irradiated, and both isomers of salannin have been isolated from seeds. Photooxidation of nimbin and salannin proceeded much faster than that of azadirachtin. All photoproducts showed some biological activity againstSpodoptera littoralis, Locusta migratoria, andSchistocerca gregaria. Isonimbinolide was as potent as azadirachtin at inhibiting feeding in all three species, and it also inhibited the growth ofS. littoralis. Isosalanninolide showed potent antifeedant and growth inhibitory activity againstS. littoralis.
