Abstract:
Argyrogramma agnata has been selected as a substitutive host insect for producing Dendrolimus punctatus Cytoplasmic Polyhedrosis Virus (DpCPV). In our experiment, it is very susceptible to DpCPV. The DpCPV produced in A. agnata is designated Aa-DpCPV. The cytoplasmic polyhedra body (CPB), the virion size and the shape of Aa-DpCPV are same as that of its original DpCPV (DpCPV-W1984). The RNA bands of Aa-DpCPV and DpCPV-W1984 all have 10 RNA segments respectively in 3% PAGE, which molecular weights ranged in size from 2.98×106 to 0.66×106 Dalton. Aa-DpCPV has the same strong toxicity as that of DpCPV-W1984 (from D. punctatus) to D. punctatus (Walker) larva. So it can be applied to the pine caterpillar control. The DpCPV yield in A.agnata is 2.5×108CPB/larva.
