Abstract

Some high frequency sounds alter physiological processes of the beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua. This study investigated the effect of ultrasound (${\geq}$ 20 kHz) on larval feeding, pupal development, and adult mating behavior of S. exigua. Ultrasound suppressed feeding behavior of fifth instar larvae, and 30 or 45 kHz treatment inhibited more than 50% of feeding activity. Larvae treated with ultrasound exhibited alterations in major nutrient compositions in the hemolymph plasma. Plasma protein levels decreased with an increase in ultrasound frequency. In contrast, sugar levels increased with an increase in ultrasound frequency. Lipid levels increased with an increase in ultrasound frequency up to 30 kHz and then decreased at treatments > 30 kHz. Hemocytes, the fat body, and epidermis expressed three heat shock proteins and apolipophorin III. Ultrasound treatment markedly inhibited expression of some stress-related genes. Ultrasound treatment also inhibited S. exigua pupal development by extending the pupal developmental period and preventing adult emergence. Last, ultrasound treatment significantly inhibited adult mating behavior, which resulted in a significant decrease in female fecundity. These results show that ultrasound is a physiological stress to S. exigua.

일부 고주파 음파 처리가 파밤나방(Spodoptera exigua)의 생리변화를 유발시킨다. 이 연구는 초음파(${\geq}$ 20 kHz) 처리가 파밤나방 유충 섭식, 용 발육 및 성충 교미행동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 초음파 처리는 5령충의 섭식 활동을 억제시켰다. 특별히 30 kHz 또는 45 kHz 초음파 처리를 받은 유충은 50% 이상의 섭식활동이 감소하였다. 이러한 초음파 처리를 받은 유충은 혈장의 주요 영양물질 함량이 변동되었다. 혈장 단백질은 처리 초음파의 주파수 증가에 따라 감소하였다. 그러나 혈당은 처리 초음파의 주파수 증가에 따라 증가하였다. 지질 함량은 30 kHz 처리까지는 증가하다가 이후 감소하였다. 파밤나방 5령의 혈구, 지방체 및 표피세포의 세 조직은 스트레스 관련 유전자들인 세 종류의 열충격단백질과 apolipophorin III를 발현시켰다. 그러나 초음파를 처리할 경우 일부 스트레스 관련 유전자들의 발현을 크게 억제시켰다. 초음파 처리는 또한 용발육을 억제시켜, 용기간을 연장시키고 성충으로 우화를 현격하게 낮추었다. 끝으로 초음파 처리는 성충의 교미행동을 억제시켜 암컷의 산란력을 뚜렷하게 낮추었다. 이러한 결과는 초음파가 파밤나방의 생리적 스트레스로 작용하고 있다는 것을 제시하고 있다.
