  • Relationship Between Insect Vectors Abundance And
    RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INSECT VECTORS ABUNDANCE AND OCCURRENCE OF RICE YELLOW MOTTLE VIRUS IN FARMERS’ FIELDS IN KILOMBERO DISTRICT BONAVENTURE JANUARY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN CROP SCIENCE OF SOKOINE UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE. MOROGORO, TANZANIA. 2012 ii ABSTRACT Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) endemic to Africa is spread within and between rice fields by several species of Chrysomelid beetles and grasshoppers. In Tanzania and particularly in Kilombero District, the virus is increasingly becoming a serious problem to rice production. The relationships between the insect vectors and RYMV disease incidence and severity were not fully known hence the need for this study. The assessment of both disease incidence and severity of RYMV and population abundance of its insect’s vectors were conducted in the three divisions of Mngeta, Ifakara and Mang’ula in Kilombero District, Tanzania in 4m2 quadrat. Insect sampling was conducted using sweep net while RYMD incidence and severity were visually assessed in a 4 m2 quadrat. Results of the insect identification indicated the presence of two insect vectors of RYMV i.e. (Chaetocnema spp. and O. hyla). The population densities of these RYMV vectors were higher at the border parts of the rice fields than at the middle parts. On the other hand, the incidence and severity of RYMV disease increased with the age of the crop. Results of within field distribution also indicated a random distribution of RYMV-affected plants in the rice fields in the agro ecosystem. The field studies of the virus–vector relationship established that RYMV occurrence varied in space and time and crop development stages.

Häuser1 & Wanja Kinuthia2 1 Staatliches Museum für Naturkunde Stuttgart 2 National Museums of Kenya Abstract: In the BIOTA East Project E06 (BMBF project ID 01LC0025), 3 field trips to the Kakamega Forest Reserve were undertaken between September 2002 and January 2004. Among other Orthoptera representatives 122 specimens of Ensifera were recorded. Most of the specimens were collected manually, using a net, or recorded at light traps. The number of species occurring in Kenya is about 200 according to the National Museums of Kenya (NMK) collection, literature data (KEVAN 1950, KEVAN & KNIPPER 1961, OTTE et al. 1988), and OSF (OTTE & NASKRECKI 1997). According to the Orthoptera Species File, OSF (http://osf2x.orthoptera.org/osf2.2/ OSF2X2Frameset.htm) the type locality of 94 species is located in Kenya. Both figures will most probably increase significantly in the future. From the Kakamega Forest region, 33 species in 7 families are reported to date, based on our own field collecting (122 specimens) and NMK data (about 60 specimens). The estimated minimal number of occurring species is 60. Key words: Orthoptera, Ensifera, katydids, crickets, check-list, Kenya, regional fauna, Kakamega Forest. Dr. J. Holstein, Dr. C.L.

Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) is the major viral constraint to rice production in Africa. RYMV was first identified in 1966 in Kenya and then later in most African countries where rice is grown. Several studies have been conducted so far on its evolution, pathogenicity, resistance genes, and especially its dissemination by insects. Many of these studies showed that, among RYMV vectors, insects especially leaf-feeders found in rice fields are the major source of virus transmission. Many studies have shown that the virus is vectored by several insect species in a process of a first ingestion of leaf material and subsequent transmission in following feedings. About forty insect species were identified as vectors of RYMV since 1970 up to now. They were essentially the beetles, grasshoppers, and the leafhoppers.

    Basic Arthropod Taxonomy Arthropods include the insects, spiders, mites, ticks, ostracods, copepods, scorpions, centipedes, shrimps, and crayfishes. Of these, insects make up > 50% of all the nominal species of organisms in the world. Insects and its allies or relatives whether pests or beneficials are part of rice ecosystems. Basic arthropod identification is important in ecological research to understand interactions, which are vital for developing better pest management tools and strategies. This manual will focus on: • Identification of different arthropod groups. • Identification of major diagnostic features of the most common and important arthropod orders, families and species especially insects and spiders in the rice agricultural landscape using taxonomic keys. • Handling and preserving arthropods for identification.

We propose the first phylogenetic hypothesis for the evolu- tion of crickets sensu lato, based on analysis of 205 species, representing 88% of the subfamilies and 71% tribes currently listed in the database Orthoptera Species File (OSF). We reconstructed parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenies using fragments of 18S, 28SA, 28SD, H3, 12S, 16S, and cytb (~3600 bp). Our results support the monophyly of the cricket clade, and its subdivision into two clades: mole crickets and ant-loving crickets on the one hand, and all the other crickets on the other (i.e. crickets sensu stricto). Crickets sensu stricto form seven monophyletic clades, which support part of the OSF fami- lies, “subfamily groups”, or subfamilies: the mole crickets (OSF Gryllotalpidae), the scaly crickets (OSF Mogoplistidae), and the true crickets (OSF Gryllidae) are recovered as monophyletic.

Barrion2. 3 and Dandi Soekarna ABSTRACI The diversity of upland rice environments gives rise to a more heterogeneous insect fauna compared with the more homogeneous lowlands. A wide array of soil-inhabiting pests - ants, termites, white grubs, crickets, root aphids, root mealybugs, root bugs, and wireworms -- common in upland rice cannot tolerate flooding. Seedling maggots replace the aquatic whorl maggots as vegetativc foliar pests. lnsect-vectored virus diseases arc rare in upland rice. Small upland ricefields cause concentrations of the more vagile seed pests during ripening. The less stable upland environment -- more restricted growing season, smaller area planted, greater drought stress - poses greater problems of survival to insects, which have overcome them by polyphagy, greater longevity, off-season dormancy, and/or dispersal. There is no one insect that specializes in upland rice. Yield losses to insects, however, are comparable to those of lowland rice. Cultural conrol methods include increased tillage, higher seeding rates, and crop rotation for soil pests. Foliar pests can be minimized by synchronous planting of early­ maturing varieties. Plant resistance as a method of insect control has iot been greatly exploited because the other breeding objectives of high yield, drought tolerance, and blast resistance take priority. Resistance to stem borers should be a high priority.
