    Bioinsecticides based onBacillus thuringiensis(Bt) are widely used to control agricultural pests. However, there are concerns about their impact on non‐target organisms, with for example, the green lacewingCeraeochrysa claveri, a polyphagous predator with important value in the biological control of insect pests in agroecosystems. This study aimed to analyse the effects of Agree®bioinsecticide (containing Bt serovaraizawaiGC‐91) on the post‐embryonic development ofC. claveri. For this, neonate larvae ofC. claveriwere fed withDiatraea saccharaliseggs contaminated with different concentrations of Agree®(0.62, 1.25, 2.50 and 5.00 g L−1) until their pupation. Samples of the midgut of larvae were collected for histological and ultrastructural analysis. The larval and pupal inviability data were collected at the end of the respective developmental stages. After the emergence of adult insects, were considered inviable those with morphological alterations. To evaluate the reproduction, adult insect couples were formed, and the oviposition was collected. No significant differences in the viability of eggs, larvae, pupae and adults ofC. clavericontaminated with Agree®were reported. Midgut analyses did not reveal cellular damage in the epithelium, indicating a possible lack of insecticidal proteins receptors. The oviposition and their viability were similar between treated and control groups. Our results demonstrated that Agree®bioinsecticide did not affect the post‐embryonic development ofC. claveri. This illustrates that the combined use of Bt andC. claverifor the biological control of arthropod pests can be a sustainable strategy for integrated pest management.
  • Azadirachtin-based insecticide impairs testis morphology and spermatogenesis of the southern armyworm Spodoptera eridania (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

    Pest Management Science, 2023
    BackgroundIn the search for alternative tools for integrated pest management, azadirachtin, a botanical insecticide, has been used with the most promising activity against Spodoptera spp., but the mechanism of cytotoxicity on reproductive organs remains unclear. Spodoptera eridania (Stoll, 1782) is a polyphagous pest with great economic importance that has become an important target to elucidate the action of azadirachtin on the reproductive organs of insect pests, helping to understand the deleterious effects caused by its exposure. This study evaluated the effects of chronic exposure to azadirachtin on the morphology and ultrastructure of S. eridania larval testes as well as larval development.ResultsAzadirachtin exposure (6 or 18 mg a.i. L−1) caused a progressive increase in cumulative mortality and reduced gain in body mass after 5 days. Testicular structure indicated a reduction in their size with internal morphological changes such as spermatogonia, spermatogonial, spermatocytes and spermatid cysts in degeneration. The occurrence of cell death in germ and somatic cells was evidenced by the TUNEL technique. Electron microscopy revealed changes in cystic cells, such as cytoplasmic membrane rupture and cytoplasmic vacuolization. Chromatin compaction, changes in the rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex cisternae were observed in germ cells. Apoptotic bodies occurred between germ cell cysts.ConclusionAzadirachtin damaged the testes of S. eridania larvae, and these changes compromised spermatogenesis and consequently the development of the reproductive potential of this specimen, making azadirachtin a promising botanical insecticide for application in integrated pest management programs. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

    BACKGROUNDBacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a Gram‐positive bacterium that synthesizes specific protein toxins, which can be exploited for control of various insect pests, including Diatraea saccharalis, a lepidopteran that severely damages sugarcane crops. Although studies have described the effects of Bt in the larval phases of D. saccharalis, few have examined its effect on insect eggs. Herein, we studied the entomopathogenic potential of Bacillus thuringiensis serovar Aizawai GC‐91 (Bta) during D. saccharalis embryo development with the aim of understanding the entomopathogenic mechanism and developing new biological control techniques for target insects.RESULTSBta concentrations of 5, 10 and 20 g L–1 demonstrated the strongest bioactivity, reducing D. saccharalis egg viability by 28.69%, 33.91% and 34.98%, respectively. The lethal concentrations (LCs) were estimated as: LC50 = 28.07 g L–1 (CI 95% = 1.89–2.38) and LC90 = 65.36 g L–1 (CI 95% = 4.19–5.26). Alterations in egg coloration, melanization and granule accumulation were observed at 24 h, persisting until 144 h. The embryo digestive systems were severely damaged, including narrowing of the intestinal lumen, vesiculations and degenerated cells, causing embryonic death.CONCLUSIONThe toxicity caused by Bta in D. saccharalis embryos demonstrated its potential as a biological control agent and as a sustainable alternative for integrated management of D. saccharalis infestation. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry
