Abstract:

【Objective】The purpose of this study is to identify the dominant species of commercial Orius species (O. nagaii, O. sauteri, O. minutus and O. strigicollis) against the main pest of cowpea Megalurothrips usitatus, Tetranychus urticae and Aphis craccivora, and to provide a scientific basis for field demonstration and commercial production of Orius species. 【Method】The single-headed female adult of a single species of Orius was used to test the predation, functional responses and search effects of different densities of M. usitatus (10, 20, 30, 40 /tube), T. urticae (5, 10, 15, 20 /dish) and A. craccivora young nymphs (5, 10, 15, 20 /dish) under indoor conditions. Holling II equation was used to analyze the predation ability and biological control potential of four Orius species on three pests. 【Result】The daily predation of four Orius species increased with the increase of the density of pests (M. usitatus, T. urticae and A. craccivora). The predatory functional response of the four Orius species conformed to the Holling II model equation, and the search effect of the four Orius species gradually decreased with the increase of prey density. While hunting M. usitatus, the transient attack rate (a′) (0.861), predation ability (a′/Th) (661.932), maximum daily predation amount (1/Th) (769.231) and processing time of single prey (Th) (0.001 d) of O. nagaii were higher than those of the other three species. While hunting T. urticae, the processing time of single prey (0.004 d), predation ability (260.617) and maximum daily predation amount (285.714) of O. nagaii were also higher than those of the other three species. There was no significant difference in the predation ability of the four Orius species on A. craccivora. 【Conclusion】At room temperature, compared with the other three Orius species, O. nagaii has better predation ability on M. usitatus and T. urticae, but the four species have little difference in predation on A. craccivora.

Key words: Orius species, Megalurothrips usitatus, Tetranychus urticae, Aphis craccivora, predation ability
