南黃薊馬之生殖機制 (I). 雌蟲之產卵

Abstract

南黃薊馬 (Thrips palmi Karny) 羽化當日交尾與未交尾雌均不產卵，未交尾雌蟲產卵前期為 1-3 日，一生之日平均產卵數為1.0-7.9 粒，平均 4.8 ± 2.0 粒；一生總產卵數為 3-164 粒，平均為 80.7 ± 47.4 粒。已交尾雌蟲產卵前期 1-5 日，一生之日平均產卵數為 0.8-7.3 粒，平均為 4.1 ± 1.9 粒；一生總產卵數為 3-204 粒，平均為 68.8 ± 54.4 粒。已交尾與未交尾雌成蟲壽與一生總產卵數間均呈顯著正相關。 The virgin and mated females of Thrips palmi Karny did not oviposit upon the day of emergence. Pre-oviposition period was 1-3 days for the virgin females and 1-5 days for the mated ones. One virgin female oviposited 1.0-7.9 eggs in a day and 4.8 ± 2.0 eggs in average. A mated female laid 0.8-7.3 eggs per day , and 4.1 ± 1.9 eggs in average. A virgin female laid totally 3-164 eggs during her life, and 80.7 ± 47.4 eggs in average. While a mated female laid totally 3-204 eggs and 68.8 ± 54.4 eggs in average. The number of egg laid either by mated or virgin females was significantly positive-correlated with their longevities.
