Male-biassed response of garden chafer, Phyllopertha horticola L., to leaf alcohol and attraction of both sexes to floral plant volatiles

Summary. Field tests were performed to evaluate the response of the garden chafer, Phyllopertha horticola (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) to known scarab attractants and to investigate the influence of trap colour and height on the number of captured beetles. Both sexes were attracted by a lure mixture composed of geraniol, eugenol, and 2-phenylethyl propionate (PEP) (ratio 3:7:3). When testing floral volatiles individually, only geraniol, eugenol and methyl anthranilate but not PEP was attractive. Response of garden chafer to (Z)- 3-hexen-1-ol was strongly male-biassed. Both the response to floral volatiles and (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol was increased by using funnel traps with yellow instead of grey vanes. Traps positioned at 50 and 125 cm above ground captured significantly more garden chafers than those at 200 cm. The strongly male-biassed response to (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol suggests that in P. horticola (subfamily Rutelinae) orientation towards plant volatiles emitted upon mechanical damage of plants is part of the male mate finding strategy as recently demonstrated for cockchafers of the genus Melolontha (subfamily Melolonthinae). Possible application of plant volatiles for control of P. horticola is discussed.

Applying metabolic fingerprinting to ecology: The use of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy for the rapid screening of plant responses to N deposition

The potential for metabolic fingerprinting via Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to provide a novel approach for the detection of plant biochemical responses to N deposition is examined. An example of spectral analysis using shoot samples taken from an open top chamber (OTC) experiment simulating wet ammonium deposition is given. Sample preparation involved oven drying and homogenisation via mill grinding. Slurries of a consistent dilution were then prepared prior to FT-IR analysis. Spectra from control, 8 and 16 kg N ha^–1 yr^–1 treatments were then subjected to cross-validated discriminant function analysis. Ordination diagrams showed clear separation between the three N treatments examined. The potential for using Calluna vulgaris (L.) Hull as a bioindicator of N deposition is further evident from these results. The results also clearly demonstrate the power of FT-IR in discriminating between subtle phenotypic alterations in overall plant biochemistry as affected by ammonium pollution.

不同配置人工湿地对分散性生活污水的处理效能研究

为研究不同植物及组合(美人蕉+黄菖蒲、花叶芦竹、黄菖蒲、旱伞草)与不同填料(陶粒、沸石、改性沸石、改性钢渣)对系统处理分散性生活污水效能的影响,建立了8种不同配置的潜流式人工湿地中试系统。结果表明,各湿地对COD均具有较好的去除效果(去除率大于70%)。旱伞草、黄菖蒲+美人蕉、黄菖蒲和花叶芦竹四植物系统对TN的去除率均呈先降低后上升的趋势,最终平均去除率分别为57.8%、51.1%、50.4%和45.5%。改性沸石、沸石、陶粒和改性钢渣填料系统对TN平均去除率分别为96.4%、83.7%、34.6%和26.6%。各植物系统对TP的去除效果差异不显著,其中旱伞草系统TP平均去除负荷最大(0.63 g/(d·m2))。各填料对TP的去除效果从大到小依次为改性钢渣、改性沸石、陶粒、沸石,改性钢渣和改性沸石对TP的去除能力显著高于陶粒和沸石,平均去除率达86.3%和78.8%。研究表明,分别采用旱伞草和改性沸石为湿地植物和填料具有较好的应用前景。
